Delving once again into the treasure trove that is the BBC Sounds podcast app, I listened to ‘First Contact’, a podcast on contact with extra-terrestrials. In this we hear from Gwen, who identifies as an ‘experiencer’. She has experienced or had contact with extra-terrestrials and has a dim recollection of having some of her eggs removed.
While I cannot donate eggs, at least to the best of my knowledge, I self-identify as an experiencer of life in general. I did finally listen to my original choice of podcast ‘The New Gurus.’ In episode two we hear from Will of Canada who needed to ‘find a way to be juicy and excited to be alive.’ His solution is to drink a pint of his own urine every day. Call me old-fashioned but I much prefer a Coopers or a glass of red.
He did however have another pastime, which alarmed me: butthole sunning. You basically expose that part of the body where the sun don’t normally shine. I wondered if I should partake. I can imagine it now. One would have to arrive in the dark on the parklands to avoid being seen. Butt-naked with my ankles round my ears and pointing towards the rising sun, I might be disturbed by Mrs. Beynon from no.27. ‘Oh, don’t mind me dear. I see it all the time.’ ‘Really?’ I would say. ‘Oh yes the parklands are full of them. It’s particularly popular amongst accountants.’ I couldn’t possibly comment.
