The Last Tuesday Project
Welcome to another TWOsday! And this time, we're trying to be a bit more professional... with an interview. Welcome to this extra episode of The Last Tuesday Project!
info_outline TLTP 037 - The Fall Of the House Of TuesdayThe Last Tuesday Project
Mystery within mystery. Misery with misery. And historic references to straw hats and gin? It can only be The Last Tuesday Project!
info_outline TLTP 036a - Hiding In The Shade, Because GingersThe Last Tuesday Project
Holidays, health, passive-aggressive pharmacists and ALL THE CATS. It's business as usual for a TWOsday at The Last Tuesday Project!
info_outline TLTP 036 - Not-So-Innocent BystanderThe Last Tuesday Project
This month Jane has grabbed the reins and landed us with a duo of deep questions. We veto the first question on male hormonal contraception (partly because Hayley's too drunk). Instead, we are forced at knifepoint to accept question of Genovese Syndrome, also known as the Bystander Effect, and how it has been affected by social media.
info_outline TLTP 035a - Kitty Bloddy Pissy IssuesThe Last Tuesday Project
Welcome along, one and all, to a mini TWOsday episode of The Last Tuesday Project!
info_outline TLTP 035 - Subliminally Poisoning Flash CarsThe Last Tuesday Project
Alex, Hayley and Jane are asking each other some short-sharp questions this month, questions that are interesting but probably wouldn't fill an entire episode. Hayley asks about exploding cars, Alex wants to know if it's OK to flash in a gallery, Jane makes us morph with binaural beats, and then Alex has the audacity to ask about poison cabinets. Plus, Jane reveals her spirit animal.
info_outline TLTP 034a - Prozac Poop-OutThe Last Tuesday Project
Here we are again, reminding you to BE GOOD TO YO' SELF! It's a TWOsday Mental Health Awareness Week special from The Last Tuesday Project! This month Hayley and Alex are joined by Guest Tuesday and Warcraft YouTuber ! We talk about antidepressants, specifically SSRIs. Hayley sets us straight on the science behind coming off SSRIs, and we all talk about our own experiences of being on antidepressants, going on them and coming off them.

info_outline TLTP 034 - Cine-TropesThe Last Tuesday Project
This month Alex assumes the mantle of Dimbleby/Dimblebruce (we're still undecided) and asks Jane and Hayley about Hollywood's responsibility towards social anxiety and love, with a special focus on the trope of the Nice Guy. But the conversation goes far beyond this one area. We move on to looking at the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope, how mental health is portrayed in Bollywood, and how American Pie was actually surprisingly progressive. Plus, Jane hints at experiences in eateries...
info_outline TLTP 033a - It's Reigning Short MenThe Last Tuesday Project
It's high time we gave you some TWOsday goodness. Welcome to this month's extra episode of The Last Tuesday Project! This month we have a selection of outtakes from the main episode. Hayley talks about genetic sexual attraction, Hayley and Jane both squee over the prospect of going to a live show of another podcast, and Alex and Hayley go through lists of short men we can all look up to. There's also an extended discussion of documentaries, podcasts and a certain royal Netflix series... Do you like what we do and want to show your support? Well, you can now give us a helping hand...
info_outline TLTP 033 - A Short StoryThe Last Tuesday Project
Tall tales about short stature are addressed this month, as Hayley takes the reins. Alex and Jane veto a question about genetic sexual attraction and end up with the question of The Napoleon Complex. Is it a thing? Does it only affect men? And how many puns about height can we fit into one episode? You'll find out shortly...
info_outlineBreak time's over, kids. It's time to get back to class and get yourself some learning from The Last Tuesday Project!
This month we are looking at education, with Alex asking a question about class sizes? Hayley and Guest Tuesday Jane diligently research the topic in preparation for the test at the end of the lesson.
