  • Each episode is a gem

    Why is there always a nugget of truth that I’ve never thought about in each one of these episodes 😭 for example- the airport being a strange example of business socialism 😂

    Discussions on mental health, science, soccer, this might just be my favorite podcast

  • Best podcast ever.

    This podcast is the best thing that has happened to me. I listen to it when I’m cleaning, driving, and generally all the time. I also now always remember sneezing is never normal, have discovered an interest in afc Wimbledon (I already was into mars) and as of today, use COCKBLARNET as an exclamation of frustration. So, in short, this podcast should be listened too by everyone.
