Joining Will today is comedian and writer Bilal Zafar. Bilal takes us through his phone, where we discover an alarming obsession with Angry Birds, his suspicious habit of retweeting Alan Sugar's most bizarre tweets, and an endless collection of to-do lists that somehow only seem to create more things to do. We also dive into billionaire Bryan Johnson's increasingly strange quest to live forever, why anyone on the internet knows anything about his son's erectile measurements, and whether self-improvement has finally gone too far. Guest Bio:Bilal Zafar was nominated for the lastminute.com Best Newcomer Award for his debut show, CAKES, at the Edinburgh Fringe.
