What can I say about The Smellcast? It has a bit of everything - it can be funny, sad, personal, amusing, surprising, hilarious, thought-provoking, shocking, titivating, titilating - not to mention great company. I first heard Toppie guesting on another show that I listen to - and his interest in cult tv lead me to begin listening to The Smellcast and another of my favourites, LOTSL which he is also a regular on. The Smellcast is so different from week to week - you never know what you'll find -... more

this is probably my favorite podcast. toppy writes wonderful stories full of great characters, and the fact that he plays all, or almost all of them, is amazing. but sometimes he just chats about his life, or talks with friends, or just records his day out. always interesting and different, if i had three thumbs i'd give it three thumbs up. definately a must listen
