With one foot in the door of their retirement home for senior web designers, Paul Boag, Andy Clarke, Jon Hicks, and Marcus Lillington get together once a month to distract each other from everyday life and work.
The show’s funny and frivolous and the chaps have a genuinely unique chemistry and will entertain you if you work on the web and even if you don’t.
After a fabulous summer of fun, the four fellas are back with an extra-long episode. Even though it’s only October, they talk about Christmas and Andy’s plan to escape to Costa Rica. The chaps discuss which celebrity we’d elect to parliament and which cabinet position we’d want most. Then, they talk about whether ghosts exist or Andy was just drunk. (This episode was recorded before Liz Catastussrophe was beaten by a lettuce.)
In this new episode, Andy bought a watch which isn’t as expensive as the divorce he narrowly avoided after. Jon sadly missed his bird nerd holiday but bought himself a camera. Paul’s wife crushed his expensive headphones so he bought new ones. The chaps then talk about the things they buy which give them joy and what they’d do if or when they retire.
In this new episode, Andy, Jon, Paul, and Marcus discuss the first stage of Paul’s latest motorhome and midlife crisis. They talk about what they like to do when they’re not working and wrap things up by suggesting what Andy should do for his hobby.
Paul advises on every area of digital transformation and user experience. He’s written six books on topics such as conversion rate optimisation and digital transformation.
