New features were good. Well, relative to the rest I mean.

Insightful and interesting indeed. Can we have "Ivan's interesting insight"? The eye of an ostrich is bigger than its brain. Same for content creators perhaps.

P.S. Is Guyus Julius Caesar also banned?

I think "Internet man" is a proper inspirational character in the WACU.

I seem to have been unwillingly tied to this ridiculous podcast now that Craig has added my name to the feature that I suggested *he* do. Dick move Burgess. Dick move.

As I am now duty bound, here is this Wednesdays fact (or ‘insight’ as Craig has decided to mislabel it):

Did you know that the English language has around 900 collective nouns? 

Most were coined in the 15th Century and are beautifully eccentric and odd (like Craig).

Have you ever seen a bloat of hippos, a charm of finches, a barrel of monkeys or a coalition of cheetahs?

Maybe you’ve witnessed a mutation of thrushes, a confusion of warblers, a generation of vipers, a destruction of wild cats or a conspiracy of lemurs?

Don’t question why, just enjoy the madness of the English language.

Please do write in to tell Craig what would make a suitable collective noun for podcasters. Lord knows he needs the c*ntent.
