Well, I suppose I should start with an apology.
Sorry we’ve not seen each other in such a long time. Normally, when there’s a Map Men series on the go, we get through about one episode per month. But this latest one went five times slower than usual, because it turns out, looking after a baby AND a toddler simultaneously is even harder than looking after a baby!
Thank you so so SO much for your patience over the last five months. Normal regular service is resuming very soon. And I promise you this latest episode is worth the wait. It’s a really fun one - all about the mysterious splodge on Google Maps where they didn’t know if there was an island there or not.
The rest of the internet doesn't get to see this for at least 48 hours. It's just for you because I like you so much. So please don't share this with anyone until then. Not even your mum. In fact, ESPECIALLY not your mum.
The upshot of spending many nights over the last few months barely awake at awful hours of the morning with a baby in one hand and a phone in the other, is that I’ve written by far the longest and stupidest blink-and-miss-it nonsense text in the history of Map Men. So, there’s that to enjoy even if the episode’s not your cup of tea.
As has become tradition, if you do manage to spot any errors that you think can or ought to be fixed in the next 48 hours (eg audio gone wrong, or something spelt wrong, or a funnier gag than we could think of), please leave a comment on the video to let us know.
Believe it or not, there are two episodes from this current series still to go. The footage will be more than a year old by the time they go out! But I promise there won’t be anywhere near as long a wait for those episodes. And they’re corkers too - so stay tuned!
Once again, I can’t thank you lovely lovely people enough for your support and your patience! You lot make this all possible, and I’m constantly extremely very grateful indeed.
Really hope you enjoy the episode!

*** Should we have called our son Wheely Big Cheese? It’s a pretty good name.

loved the subject of this one. My copy of The Phantom Atlas has a place of pride on my bookshelf.

My officemate claims that he is from Brazil. I always suspected that he was lying, but now I know it for sure. Thank you Map Men for exposing the impostor!
