An eclectic podcast this week. We discuss how “staying in is the new going out,” respond to Eric of the Garden Fork Radio Podcast’s love letter to toilet augers, listen to a comment on poultry health, debrief on Kelly’s sewing projects and go off on a rant about Erik’s plantar fasciitis problem. During the podcast we mention:

• The Idler and Tom Hodgkinson’s book How to Be Idle: A Loafer’s Manifesto
• The band Calexico (you can download a free song and see a concert on their website).
• Hencam.com
• Architectural Graphics Standards
• Barefoot Ken Bob
