Angus & Graham get into the Christmas spirit and have some fun. They discuss Angus’ Christmas tree shopping and their annual LFL Christmas party. They also discuss how fantastic Christmas lunch is, Christmas movies, and a niche version of the Christmas story that Graham came across during his research. It seems that the Bible may have missed some critical aspects of the nativity (Luke 1:26 - 2:40).

Is A Juice Cleanse A Good Idea?
Angus & Graham discuss the very emotive and controversial topic of ‘juicing’, ‘juice cleanses’ and ‘juice retreats’. They struggle to find evidence as to the efficacy of these activities, but give extensive detail on their impact on the digestive system, and other bodily functions.
Nonetheless, consuming nothing other than juices for extended periods can impact a persons weight. The ‘Juice Master’, who has become quite wealthy, is highlighted.

Why We Should Be Barefoot More
Graham & Angus discuss barefoot running and the history of training shoes. Graham wonders if his new trainers have contributed to his recent calf injury, whilst Angus questions why he was diagnosed with ‘flat feet’ when he was younger, which contributed to knee pains.
They also discuss the history of Nike, Adidas and how training shoe designs have adapted. A key conclusion is that we are all being too protective of our feet.
