How would Shanthi take on a thousand seagulls?

We're back with another Thursday episode, answering your important listener questions like, would you rather take on a dog sized spider or a pack of seagulls?

The pair discuss Parents Evening and advise your latest listener dilemmas, from a curry-addicted dog, to Shanthi's weaponised use of cake. Plus, Shanthi and the team give some feedback on Romesh's interviewing technique and discuss what would we do if Shanthi quit?
