A face full of acupuncture needles and a sourdough microbiologist on a country road in Sardinia: this week Simon and Lee cover a lot of ground. The main story is a hitchhiking adventure from an agriturismo near Tempio – Lil's first time ever, Simon's first in perhaps thirty-five years – that ends with a chance encounter so improbable it needs several minutes of recounting before either of them quite believes it. From there the conversation opens into what happens to your assumptions about people when you're somewhere unfamiliar, and what it means to feel genuinely lucky rather than merely privileged.
Mentioned
- Mary Shelley – 19th-century English author; referenced when the acupuncture needles prompt a comparison to a scene from a horror novel
- Chega – Portuguese far-right political party; mentioned as a Portuguese equivalent of Fratelli d'Italia and Reform UK
- Fratelli d'Italia – Italian far-right political party; cited as a European parallel to Chega
- Reform UK – British populist party; mentioned as a point of comparison.
