The chosen ones

In Latte Veritas began life on 26 June 2006 and today, Christmas Day 2006, hits its 100th episode. We take the chance to bring together the four original voices — Steven, John V., John P. and Yvette — and the three others who have participated in the most episodes. This special instalment runs far longer than our usual five minutes as we include messages of congratulations and, most importantly, instead of a five-minute time limit we go for a 10-minute recap of our greatest hits:

Shane Warne, idiot

 

The In Latte Veritas team is devastated by Shane Warne’s decision to retire from throwing balls at sticks at an international level, which spurs them to ask: Is it true that society is dumbing down?

“Have we dumbed down or have we always been this dumb?” — Steven
