Episode 43 – Soup

Description:

The Cat gets personal in this lo-fi, bargain-bucket, guest-free and long-overdue episode of supernatural occurrences and generational egotism. And when we say 'the Cat', we mean two Gen Xers and an elder Millennial; and when we say 'personal', we mean 'persona' (the 'l' is silent). While Kaaron lives in the moment and Aaron embraces his own mortality, Joseph flaps his Kermit hands and says the C-word. The stories we tell about ourselves are discussed, the elevator pitch of yourself, and the narrow contexts of identification. Also BO on the bus. Updating books to fit the mores of the age. Using masks to build a wall between yourself and others. Being too posh to save a life. Aaron gets his head stuck in a table. Everyone stops for soup.

Zips, buttons and other collectable doodads featured in this episode include:

  • Douglas Coupland's Generation X
  • Nick Cave and Sean O'Hagan's Faith, Hope & Carnage
  • Kaaron's The Underhistory
  • The story about Aaron's Grandad's diary is in Episode 31 – Bag
