Episode Notes
What is imposter syndrome? Do you suffer from it? Are you worried that you don't suffer from it and maybe you should? More to the point what does all this have to do with Kehoe having to follow Baroness Hale, former President of the Supreme Court, speaking at an event for women in the law?

Listener John asked a question which we answer in this episode.
Friend of a friend has had his quad bike confiscated. Can he get it back before the police dispose of it?
Party time as the boys have been promised a gift by a listener!
Unsurprisingly, they decide to do another listener suggested episode as they have little moral fibre and are willing to sell themselves to any bidder.

Happy New Year.
Good episode this one, we talk about the Post office scandal and a pub in Bolton called Fanny's which (as you might guess) gets us a little sidetracked.

This ep is about some legal stuff, but seriously, Automatism is a great name for a band. Anyone able to play anything and want to join?
I can play a bit of guitar and Kehoe can too but he will probably want to play a balalaika or a sitar or something equally wacky.
Probably need a lead singer (1970's Debbie Harry type) and a drummer (Rick Buckler type) and then Automatism can start rehearsing.
Anybody...?
Hello...?

Episode Notes
A listener question from a copper called Blue Anon. and a problem she frequently encounters whilst working as a police officer in the North of England.
Also, lots of whingeing, a book recommendation and an idea for where the Govt could detain people who are mentally ill and a danger to themselves.
