Ben's recording from a listener's Melbourne studio, and it's a big week. We:

•     Welcome Oman (with a warm smile and eye contact).

•     Celebrate the main event: Richard has launched an app. MacroBurn is a macro tracker built for endurance athletes — meal plans, a shopping list that breaks down by supermarket department, the lot — and it's at macroburn.cc, free for now while he gathers feedback. (You don't have to be an athlete; it's a great macro tracker either way.)

•     Share a travel tip and a warm reminder: small-town hospitality is real — the local who directed Ben 'back to the servo' without knowing (or needing) its name.

•     Field listener CF's genuinely inspired idea: why don't cars have backward-facing horns? (A polite 'beep' for the tailgater behind you.)

•     Ask the Conundrum: why is it called a toothbrush when you brush more than one tooth? Plus: how high does a mountain have to be to count as an 'alp'?

Next week: why do people say 'when in Rome' when they're nowhere near Rome?
