- Not an episode because the Beans are off for August. Ben is working on his manifesto and running for the US election now that Biden has stepped aside. Jon Sopel is wetting himself with excitement.
- Mike likes 'Steve Buttigieg' (he means Pete but thinks of him as Steve). He should be called Chuck Beaver.
- Mike's sister thinks The Rock is the only one to be a guaranteed election win. Ben suggests Paul Giamatti (Henry: "on a double ticket with Plemons?"). A Sarandon Secretary of State (Mike would donate, or set up a troll farm).
- The Beans sing The Star-Spangled Banner (defense!)
- The Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/threebeansalad/posts) includes lots of hot content, including some from the July Extra Beans on archaelogy (including 'a bit racy' warning from Ben):
- Archaeology is a hot area because everyone is bending over all the time, there are little shorts (that Henry has put in) and there is a lot of dusting, like dusting the thigh of a lover, dusting off the dusty buttocks.
- A lot of being bored, so obviously thinking about food, sex, or the Roman Empire.
- Digging down beyond the Judaeo-Christian to the Filth Zone of human society, pre-Christian, Babylonian shit: orgies for breakfast. A thousand concubines means you're basically single.
- Eating grapes today is a sexless act with no chaise longues. Contrast with eating your grapes in a room full of people on the toilet.
- Dr Timothy Plimpington is your average academic: horny as hell, recently sacked, nostril hair interfering with 5G.
- Digging down deep enough to the primal, fish with legs level. Concubines and concuboons (a baboon concubine with a glowing red arse) and no value system to tell you you're wrong.
