Ep. 26 … Bananas, yeah really
Season 1, Ep. 26
•
Join us this week as we delve into the, actually more interesting than expected topic, of Bananas.
Ever wondered why bananas being slippery is a comedy trope? Or why there have been banana wars, banana republics and poorly named clothing lines? If so you’re in the right place.
***Please note that the slight technical difficulties with sound from last week are still present for the first 10 mins or so of the episode, we hope it doesn’t detract from the overall experience and rest assured they will be a thing of the past going forwards***
