Episode 1

Everyone craves a place where their mind and body are not applied to a particular task. The nearest faraway place.

Somewhere for drifting and lighting upon strange thoughts which don't have to be shooed into context, but which can be followed like balloons escaping onto the air.

Late at night, in the dark and in a bunk bed, your tired mind can wander.

The return of the acclaimed Bunk Bed, written by and featuring Patrick Marber and Peter Curran.

Recorded in the dark and in real beds - they discuss what sort of dinosaur they would have been and respond to archive of the great African-American writer James Baldwin on Fathers with their own tales of being humiliated by children

Plus they argue over whether if it's ever appropriate for an Irish person to use the phrase "Yada, yada, yada..."
