Sitting Under A Tree with Aidan Jones
One December in Sydney, out of lonely desperation to tell my story, I sat in a park under a tree and recorded a podcast. I’ve released a new one each week since November 2017, and will continue to do so every Tuesday, forever.

I'm still sitting in the Wetherspoons pub where I recorded this episode, fuck it's so loud, but I managed to cancel out the background noise because I'm a computer hacking genius. Also I managed to solve racism in this episode by pointing out that the term World Music contains the assumption of whiteness as a status quo. You're welcome.

I woke up at 10:30am to record this pod, which doesn't sound like a feat of any importance, but trust me it was hard. You should be impressed, I am. I'm a good boy, and today I talk about that among various other stories from the weekend at the Edinburgh Fringe. Today is the mid-point of the festival, and I'm feeling optimistic. COMEDY!!

Remember when I said I wasn't going to do any podcasts during the Edinburgh Fringe? I lied. Today I'm a pathetic little sadboy fuckhead, and I talk about that for a while, before finally finding joy in the absurd concept of A Magician. I feel a little better now.

I just spent like 45 minutes screaming at my computer trying to get my books ordered for my Edinburgh Fringe Show. It's sorted now, and this week's pod was a great way to let off some steam after that ordeal - and that's what it was guys, AN ORDEAL!! I'm so excited for the Fringe to start, keep your eyes out for the daily podcast starting in the next few days.

Oh man, fuck yeah I just had a beautiful, cathartic rant about some piece of shit at the show I was on last night. Dude was A COMIC! And heckled another comic because of a joke he made that he didn't like - and not just at an open mic, at a show with an audience of SEVENTY PEOPLE!! Eugh. That was good to get off my chest, and I didn't even realise it was eating me up until I started talking about it. Also some other stuff.

FRANCE WON THE WORLD CUP!! And I was in Paris when it happened!! Oh my god, amazing. The next day I jumped on a bus to Berlin, which is where I'm at now. Highlights: watching an Australian couple cry because they booked their bus on the wrong day, seeing Americans waste money on water, and this beautiful, beautiful German woman who's letting me stay at her place.

Sorry in advance for the sound quality this week, I'm a double-fuck dumb lord and left my microphone in London when I flew to Dublin on Sunday morning because I only took one bag to avoid paying for an extra luggage allowance. The positive upshot of that decision though, is that YOU CAN HEAR THE LOVELY DUBLIN TRAMS!! Also you can hear me talk about the last week of the World Cup, and sing Three Lions again. Fuck yeah.

I'm in LONDON! The eagle has landed! That's me, I'm an eagle. Sitting under a tree, in a cemetary in South East London. Laptop case under my butt so I don't get twigs on my pants. The pants that I wear over my clawed legs - I'M STILL AN EAGLE!! It's been a great few days so far, and I'm super excited about this summer in Europe.

I'm leaving for the UK in less than 48 hours and I'm getting real pumped for it, even though I just realised I have a 26-hour layover in fucking Manila, Philippines. FUCK! The World Cup has been fantastic though, and I talk about that some more, as well as a special announcement for August.

It's been a strange week in Melbourne, really weird. The tragedy of Euridyce Dixon last week has fucked a lot of people up, and I didn't even realize how much it's thrown my bearings out until towards the end of this. I don't have that much to say about it to be honest, but it was nice to be able to talk it out and reset. On to the World Cup!
