TLTP 036 - Not-So-Innocent Bystander
The 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.

TLTP 035 - Subliminally Poisoning Flash Cars
The 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.

TLTP 034 - Cine-Tropes
The 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...

TLTP 033 - A Short Story
The 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_outlineWith a warranty slightly shorter than its expected lifespan, here's this month's episode of The Last Tuesday Project!
This month Alex asks Hayley and Jane about planned obsolescence. Is there a massive conspiracy in the technology industry? How far back does the term's usage go? Are iPhones getting slower? And what's with the lightbulbs?
