Midlifing
Two friends Lee and Simon have serious conversations about silly things, and silly conversations about serious things. Together they dig into the pleasures, absurdities and imperfections of being human.

You've never thrown your keys in my fish bowl
Lee owns up to being an enthusiastic toddler, Jef is still a dalmation, and Simon takes way too long for the penny to drop. Things go literally bananas while discussing a conversation gone wrong, and the ride involves oat milk that may or may not froth, leaving Facebook, cultural products, triplets and not showering enough.
