6.25 /// Rolling the dice...

2026-05-2422:05

Send us a message 🤘 Six dice rolls. Six questions, and a season finale that goes from light to unexpectedly heartfelt in minutes. I’m closing out season six of Infinite Prattle with a Q&A that isn’t polished or pre-planned (as normal!), just honest answers pulled straight from a set of conversational dice, recorded on a roasting hot day in England with real life ticking away in the background. I start with music, because it’s the quickest way to reveal mood, memory and personality. From ...

6.24 /// The Joy And Rage of DIY

2026-05-1723:57

Send us a message 🤘 Your washing machine dies, you buy a replacement, and you expect a simple swap. Then you find out the old one is basically trapped inside the kitchen. That’s where we start, because I’m dealing with the fallout of a kitchen fitting job that looked fine at first but left a nasty surprise years later, with units built so tight I had to cut parts of a cupboard just to free a built-in washer-dryer. I talk through what I actually did to fix it, from carefully cutting panels fo...

6.23 /// Has Tech Ruined The Moment?

2026-05-1023:22

Send us a message 🤘 Your phone can do almost anything, yet it is getting harder to switch off, stay present, and enjoy simple moments. I’m Stephen, and I’m asking a blunt question: has technology ruined our enjoyment of things, and ruined us along the way? Coming at it as a Xennial who remembers the analogue 80's and 90s, I look at how quickly “optional” tech became the default for home, school, work and even downtime. I talk about the habit side of smartphone life: waking up to clear notifi...

6.22 /// The sound of confident silence...

2026-05-0321:13

Send us a message 🤘 I walked into a communication course thinking I was already pretty good at talking. A few hours later, I realised I’ve been doing the classic thing: speaking at a pace that feels comfortable to me while the meaning gets buried under speed, tangents, and way too many words. If you’ve ever finished a meeting, a presentation, or even a voice note and thought “that’s not what I meant to say”, you’ll recognise this straight away. I am no expert but I want to share my imme...

6.21 /// Ranking Every Alien [Alien Day Special]

2026-04-2621:51

Send us a message 🤘 Alien Day only comes once a year, so I leaned all the way in and ranked every Alien film I count as part of the saga: Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien Resurrection, Prometheus, Alien Covenant and Alien Romulus. Starting with the 4/26 clue for LV-426 or Acheron, I talk through what makes the franchise so re-watchable: grimy sci‑fi production design, believable crews under pressure, and a Xenomorph that is still one of cinema’s best monsters. I put Alien at the top [Spoilers!]...
