Robin start's us off with an interesting fact about Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins, and possible contribution to winter deaths. We explain how the our most ridiculous song name came about. The process of revisiting the song and relearning is brought up, throughout the episode, and Dan's enjoyment of some of the stranger bits. The subject matter leads us down a deep dive into how this sort of song becomes a staple, after only really writing Socio-Political songs before this. An unexpectedly important song in the back catalogue!

In this Episode Tilston & Robin discuss Milk + Snakes & Ladders. Sean's thoughts on the name of Milk when he joined the band come up. As well as what the title actually means. An earlier version of Milk is played with unexpected results. Thoughts on what might have happened had we not recorded the album. We also get into some influences on the tune you likely don'r hear. Snakes & Ladders brings up thoughts on the education system, and Robin recalls presenting the 'Sum41' bit.
