This week, Neil lifts the lid on the one occasion you’re actually allowed to drink alcohol on the floor of the House of Commons - and what tipples people choose. We then hop back in time to Bologna to discover why being a law professor there was… well, a tough career choice.


Meanwhile, Dave valiantly tries to explain where Earth’s water came from, but that’s quickly overshadowed as he inadvertently reveals his key demand for remaining in the employment he so richly deserves. Tune in for history, science, and accidental workplace negotiations - all in one episode.
