Sinopsis
Australian comedian Aidan 'Taco' Jones podcasts from the only place he feels comfortable talking to himself, wherever that happens to be that week. In January 2017, gassed-up on dreams of romance, Aidan flew to Sydney to reconnect with an old flame, but as he boarded the plane, she broke the news to him that she had a new boyfriend. After a few lonely days in Sydney, Aidan sat under a tree in a park, and because he had no one else to share it with, he told the story into his phone. Like all good things, this podcast was born out of desperation - it is a desperate man sharing silly stories and musings, every week, into a phone, forever.
