We used to fall off concrete playgrounds and learn gravity isn't optional. Now everything's foam. In this episode, Paul and Chris ask whether decades of health-and-safety culture has made us genuinely safer - or just worse at handling reality when it inevitably shows up anyway.

Along the way: two separate stories of literally being blown across a room (electricity, then petrol), the "Playground Anxiety Pipeline," why seatbelt laws didn't cut fatalities as much as expected, taffophobia and Victorian safety coffins, and the time Chris told off a stranger for running a red light - and the stranger showed him a handgun.

It's a conversation about risk thermostats, the difference between avoiding danger and avoiding uncertainty, and whether raising kids in a world with no edges is doing them any favours at all.

Would you take a life that's 20% more dangerous if it was also 20% more exciting? Have a listen and decide.
