    Lunch (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    You didn't skip lunch. Lunch happened — you just weren't there for it. On the difference between eating and having a meal, and a break people once went on strike for that we handed back in the last thirty years without a single negotiation.

    The Hour That Doesn't Count (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Today is a holiday about the eight-hour day, and there's a decent chance you'll spend it sitting down.

    Nothing Left to Look At (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I have never once stood up from two hours of doom-scrolling and felt better than when I sat down. Not once. Which is a remarkable thing to say about a leisure activity — and the information in it isn't about discipline.

    Yacht Rock Is Harder Than You Think (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Yacht rock is the most relaxed-sounding music ever recorded, made by the most tightly wound people in the history of the recording industry. Which turns out to be exactly what most of us do with rest.
