Finally, The Meaning of Life
Is Cereal Soup?
This week, Mark and Dave risk it all by tackling the truly divisive question:
š Is cereal actually a type of soup?
It starts as a quick breakfast chat⦠and spirals into a full-blown philosophical meltdown involving gazpacho, Weetabix bricks, political soup factions, custard conspiracies, and the real reason you should never trust a Frostie.
In this episode:
ā Dave tries to argue that cereal is soup.
ā Mark tries to stay sane.
ā Custard is dragged into the debate.
ā And the phrase āare soup lovers fascists?ā is uttered. (Yes, really.)
š” Ever wondered why Weetabix could build a house?
š” Want to know how many ways Dave can avoid admitting heās wrong?
š” Need to hear a grown man call another man āslipperyā over gazpacho?
Then this episode is for you.
