Listening to the new series of Sliced Bread, Dough.

I found it really cringey and borderline advertising.... Probably because it was Dyson and we all know Mr Dyson is a prick.

Loops were the same.

Even though I have a pair. It did come across as a massive advert, they went though the whole range.

... Went onto Alfie Moore, much better.

If you are ADHD, Loops are the best thing since and including sliced bread.

I find the sensory deprivation of ear plugs does help ADHD. How do Loops compare to other ear plugs or noise cancelling earbuds?

I am constantly spammed by Loops adverts online.

WTF ARE LOOPS
Whenever someone is on the telly, they should be given a little background, on a ticker loop at the bottom of the screen-
Dyson, millionaire, voted for Brexit, then moved factory abroad, is a prick, his hoovers are overrated.’ That sort of thing, just to add context.
David Cameron could be:
Millionaire, ex PM, ****ed country in every hole, the ****ed off.’

They're a bit like Cheerios. No idea why people are sticking them in their ears (but might explain why you have to shout)

I SAID.... THEY"RE A BIT LIKE CHEERIOS.

CHEEEEERIOS

Marketing folk from Proctor and Gamble were on it or similar recently talking about Sunny Delight.

Quite a good expose of how evil "food corp" is.

EDIT - "Toast" below - the main positive was that it's better than coke.

I got sucked in by the loop advertising. They are just ear plugs. Don't bother, plenty of better options on the market. Not as good as other ear plugs designed for musicians and significantly worse than my custom fit ear plugs (admittedly those were a LOT more expensive than loops).

That 'Sliced Bread' programme is such trash. It's like Radio 4 presenting a guest feature on The One Show.

By comparison, it's enough to give me the impression that Winifred off of You and Yours is a worthwhile consumer journalist 😀
