The Worst Idea Of All Time

As summer descends on Auckland, the local fauna shed their winter coats, pick up their lapel mics and return to the trees to record Season 2 of the number one podcast in a tree, Podcast in a Tree. Classic segments, like Drugs in a Tree, are joined by new favorites, like meditating on the aging process and its impact on butt tattoos. Tim plots to take down his local licensing board, while Guy presents a bold new variation on Sandwich in a Tree (an almond croissant). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Guy's approaching unattended kids, Tim's distracted by all the fantastic colours and products on offer. It's almost the end of the nightmare so get in while the getting's good. Hosted on Acast.
