Humans Exhaust Me – Details, episodes & analysis

Paul is watching the US from afar and is not liking this season. He hopes next season has better script writers, possibly bringing back Bobby Ewing from the shower.

Phylecia fills us in on all the action from Project 2025 via a list, because that's the only way to get through it.

The Trump administration is not wasting time implementing what they said (and what Kamala warned) they would do.

As the rest of the world grabs the popcorn with trepidation, we go through some of the new rules being imposed at pace.

Hold on to your hats, folks.

We knew that any normal show could be very outdated very quickly. So, instead, let us welcome you to a special episode recorded asynchronously through WhatsApp.

It gives you a real time view of thinking and discussion points. It's also an insight into how we discuss things when we're not recording the show. Yes, believe it or not, you only get a tiny part of our discussions on the podcast.

What do you think to this format? Should we do more like this?

After a three week break, Paul & Phylecia are back. What did we miss? Well, almost the entire Liz Truss era. Was she set up to fail? Phylecia has a theory.

In this episode, Paul gives a summary of what's happened in the UK. Hold on for the ride - it's fast.

What does having a British Asian prime minister mean for the UK? Does it open the door to the racists? Of course it does. Phlyecia offers some advice for how to handle those that feel compelled to tell you their views at this point.

We talk Kanye West/Ye's viewpoint (spoiler: it ain't pretty) and how he's able to spout his garbage on TV opinion shows. What is a fact? What is not? Are viewers able to tell anymore?

We went away, but humans still exhaust us.

The UK Government (OK, so Liz Truss mainly) is in chaos and people are calling for yet another General Election. Do we want one? Perhaps we need one to prepare for the end of the world, which didn't happen again.

We talk a few conspiracy theories and find out which is Paul's favourite. Phylecia becomes obsessed with 'The Elite'.

And we also have an update on the situation in Ukraine. This is key as we're climbing the Russian podcast charts and it's up to us to spread the truth now.

We'll be on a break for a couple of weeks after this episode - our schedules don't allow recording.

Hurricane season has arrived with Hurricane Ian (so passive aggressive) battering Florida.

Also battering the whole globe is the British economy and the pound that is in freefall and about to cause a global recession. Go Britain.

Paul is shocked by the price of eggs in the US. It's suddenly more expensive for him to visit.

Our intention is to carry on but, if you watch TikTok, 24 September 2022 is a date for the world to remember. So, just in case this is our last show, please give it a listen.

This week saw the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, with as much pomp and pageantry as the UK could muster to try and keep itself relevant. Hear our analysis of the event, and the incredulity of nearly 5 billion people across the world watching it.

We hope to be back next week, but if not, it's be awesome.

With respect to a family and nation in mourning, there's only one issue leading the news in the UK. We discuss people's feelings, how vocal people are and what some of the future may hold.

Paul said he wasn't going to talk about it because it was too controversial. But he does anyway.

NEW PRIME MINISTER SPECIAL

The wait is finally over. Liz Truss has been elected by her party to lead the Conservatives and will become the next prime minister of the United Kingdom.

Not heard of her? You're not alone, apparently. In this episode we talk through the process of how someone not directly voted in to the position can get the top job in UK politics and what leverage she has over the electorate in choosing the fate of her and the UK population.

Phylecia asks the questions on behalf of you, the audience, and Paul does his best to offer answers. You know how we're experts on constitutional affairs. Feel free to message the Department of Corrections and Amendments.

If you missed us last week, know it was the result of an epic tech failure. So now there will be a secret recording that will not see the light of day until we have died and our estate releases it.

In this episode we talk about the misogynist Andrew Tate, his predecessor/influencer, 45, and decide that maybe the soft life is for us.

Don't know what 'soft life' is? Listen to find out.
