Of course, after promising to keep things to just five minutes, I went overboard this week, and have a jaaaaaam-packed Flapjacks episode! I recorded like seventeen minutes worth o' stuff.

Since we’re all busy people, I sliced it into three 5-minute chunks. (Okay, I lie: the third and last one is six-ish minutes.) So just listen to the first one if you’re busy, or don’t listen at all, and that’s okay too. I put all the stuff I thought was more important first.

Enjoy appropriately. I kinda hope I get back to being back under five minutes next week, because this is eating into my precious sleep time! But please do drop me a message if you have a strong opinion about how this week worked. Enjoy.

So here we go: Flapjacks for August 1, 2025. This is a special day, as you’ll find out if you listen.

(And happy birthday to you too, Darryl. Didn’t forget about you!)
