TAI CHI & WARDROBES
Futile Attempts (At Surviving Tomorrow)
Tai Chi is absolute wank and ain't that the truth. If anyone knows that it’s plumbers. With help from Kim Noble’s sensei, we learn the importance of breathing. This episode was mainly recorded from a showroom wardrobe and also includes a free meditation session.

WALLS AND RELATIONSHIPS
Futile Attempts (At Surviving Tomorrow)
Back in 2012 Kim recorded the sounds of his neighbours having sex. He will share those sounds with you... if that's ok… and we’ll listen to a secret recording he made whilst a girlfriend broke up with him back in 2005. He recorded it for training and quality control purposes.

NOTES ON HUMAN KINDNESS
Futile Attempts (At Surviving Tomorrow)
Guppies can teach us a lot: The world is full of selfish arseholes. You’re probably one yourself. In this episode Kim Noble attempts to return a wallet he found on a 172 bus to its rightful owner and in doing so breaks into a community garden. P.S. the location of a stash of money Kim buried in a roundabout near Manchester is at 18 mins 47 secs if you want to jump to that bit.

NOTES ON RUNNING
Futile Attempts (At Surviving Tomorrow)
Exercise can really help one's mental health, but it's so freaking dull… This was due to be the definitive podcast about running but it turned into an investigation into molestation by the award-winning investigative journalist Kim Noble. Partly recorded from a complete stranger’s bathtub without their permission. Sorry.
