Dani and Alex finally manage to get back together for a bumper episode with all your favourites: Alex has a new pen, and Dani’s lusting after a new watch and has just bought some old books. Naturally, this leads to a deep discussion on the ephemeral nature of modern storage media, the perceived value of domain names, colonialism in the age of the internet, and, er… Kim Kardashian?
