'Boris Is Pretty Dicky'

...is Ruth's assessment of our new Prime Minister, as dad brings her up to date with what's been happening while she's been away, where she outraged her parents by getting a tattoo. In this episode she explains to dad why we need three Spidermen, and why Tom Holland is the most Spiderman of the Spidermen. Father and daughter also discuss whether hormone blockers are handed out too freely to children who may wish to transition, and dad worries about the 'lad culture' on campuses as Ruthie prepares to leave for university. Musically, it's Andrew Gold v Sabrina Claudio, and the podcast concludes with some uncharacteristically '70s humour.
