Show Notes: S06, E06 - Is My Relationship with My Dad Doomed?
We have a packed episode for you today. Karl debates running for political office, Aaron has some controversial ideas for saving the planet, and we solve listener problems with the help of Indiana Jones, Flowers for Algernon, Tracy Chapman, Finding Nemo, and more westerns than you can shake your spaghetti at.
Here's all the art we recommended.
(Art we only mentioned in passing, and never intended as a problem-solving recommendation, is in italics.)
Bold items are this week's top picks from each of our presenters. If you're only going to try one of the pieces of art we mentioned, try these ones first.

- Liam falsely stated that countdown host Richard Whiteley lived in Wetwang. This isn't true - he was from Bradford, but he did have a famous fondness for Wetwang and become honorary Mayor of Wetwang in 1998.
- Karl said that Richard Whiteley died of pneumonia. He actually recovered from pneumonia and died of endocarditis - an inflammation of the inner layer of the heart. Endocarditis is not a 9 letter word.
