Have you ever taken a personality test? Are you a Protagonist or Virtuoso? Does it shape how you act?
This week, Ethan and Yvonne discuss personality tests!
From their use in employability and recruitment to the social implications of the results, Yvonne and Ethan talk about their feelings towards these tests. They touch upon toxicity, the potential for recruitment benefits as well as discrimination, and the impact of being labelled. Yvonne brings her unique perspective as someone who uses them at work, while Ethan tries to convince people to take a philosophical health check.

S02E04 - Now That's What We Call Music!
What does it mean to choreograph something lyrically? Can you disassociate the singer from the songwriter? Did you root for Will Young or Gareth Gates?
This week Ethan and Yvonne discuss all things MUSIC!
Ethan gives us a run down of the top 5 things that are most important to him when deciding what music and songs he likes to listen to while Yvonne declares her two true loves of music which couldn't be more polar opposite. We also discuss the different emotions that songs and music evoke for us both as well as how much we both love performing.
You're going to have to listen to the very end to find out what our chosen karaoke songs are and your hosts have never been so close to having a fall out... will they make up before the next episode? Tune in to find out!
