Welcome to Episode 6 of the "Kill a Bit of Time" podcast, where we delve into various topics of interest and curiosity. In this episode, we begin with a discussion on self-improvement, exploring the challenge of defining oneself through actions rather than abstention, specifically focusing on the narrator's journey towards abstaining from alcohol.

Discover the rich history of gypsy jazz, its roots, and how Reinhardt overcame adversity to become a legend despite personal and societal challenges during the Nazi occupation. Learn about the fascinating origins of the banjo, tracing back from Africa to Ireland, and its misunderstood reputation. Finally, enjoy a lighter segment "In the Garden," where we chat about the simple joys of outdoor activities, while touching on folklore and brambles.
