*APRIL 2014*

34 - 38. In these weeks, the hosts and subs were given an assortment of eight topics to choose from. These were eight topics that had not previously been covered because not everyone felt able to speak to them, so instead the hosts chose three topics of the eight that they did want to discuss, in whatever order they chose. This was a way of acknowledging some of the loose end topics that had been suggested over the past year, while not requiring anyone to speak to a subject they didn't know about or didn't have a perspective on.
