Here's just an hour of absolute nonsense for you to listen to. Me and Seppy Yoon just talking and having the best time. 
For some reason it sounds like I recorded this on the other side of the room. But it's not a podcast unless you have one episode with technical issues.. 
So there you go. Enjoy. Have fun.

Joined once again by Eoin Costelloe and Ciara Costelloe, but not Brian.  We chat about their latest escape room type puzzle game coming to Kickstarter extremely soon, as well as some general chat about pivoting your skills when the world is in lockdown, and why manufacturing has a long way to go to step out of China's shadow. It's great to catch up with them again and I hope you enjoy the episode.
