It used to be the only one. It isn't anymore.

But one day they find everyone enjoying themselves at the funerals of a new competitor – the impossibly perfect Eric Chapman! With their dogsbody Georgie, and a mouse called Madeleine, the Funns are taking drastic steps to stay in business…

Nick Recommends - From Now

A famed lost spaceship, the USS HOPE, returns to Earth after vanishing thirty-five years prior. The lone survivor disembarks mysteriously​ looking the exact same age as when he left​. Following the ensuing media chaos, he finally reunites with his formerly identical twin brother (now an old man) for a one-on-one meeting. But what starts as a joyful reconciliation soon leads to dark revelations that threaten their relationship -- and the future of humanity.

Zane Recommends - Extremities

https://www.wendoverproductions.com/

In a typical "Zane" move Zane has brought a History and Science podcast (with a garnish of Geography and Social Sciences thrown in)! Extremities examines the why, and how, people live in Earth's most isolated and extreme settlements. Typically one location per season, the podcast has covered Pitcairn, Svalbard, and St Helena. The podcast has not run since early 2020, but there are still hours of escapist content to enjoy.

For Both: Pick Any
