Left on Read Island

How do you tell someone you never want to see them again? You could explain yourself, have an awkward conversation, or you could simply disappear off the face of the earth. This week, Charlie takes us to one of the most isolated places on the planet: North Sentinel Island, home to a tribe who have chosen to remain completely disconnected from the outside world. No phones, no social media, no unwanted visitors — and honestly, they might be onto something. Meanwhile, Josh explores the modern art of ghosting. From romantic interests to friends and even family, sometimes it’s easier to disappear than explain yourself. But with dating apps making it easier than ever to move on to the next person, has ghosting become too normal? Josh has a long history of serial ghosting, but is finally forced to confront the possibility that, in this situation, he might actually be the problem. Can Charlie convince Josh that sometimes leaving people alone is the kindest thing you can do, or does Josh just need to learn how to send a bloody text?
