  • Summary

  • Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too. Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do. Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.

  • About Train Drivers: Delays, drunk passengers and a giant Bop It!

    About Train Drivers: Delays, drunk passengers and a giant Bop It!
    Oct 30 2024
    Our guest today is Max, who is a train driver, a listener of the show, and a very lucky man because he can get on any train he wants for free. In this episode, he tells us what it's like handling the 'vomit commit' last train out of London on a Friday, about the time he caused delays because nature called, and why driving a train is like playing a giant Bop It! We love Max, and you will too. Come and see us live at The Clapham Grand on 3rd December, with special comedian guests Jake Lambert and Suzi Ruffell!

  • About Batteries: How many would it take to power Wembley Stadium?

    About Batteries: How many would it take to power Wembley Stadium?
    Oct 25 2024
    Can we do a whole episode about batteries? You bet we can. Batteries are everywhere. They are in your remote controls. Your cars. The random draw you probably have in the kitchen, full of both new and used batteries and you can’t remember which are which. But do you know how they work? When the first battery was invented? Why phone batteries deteriorate? How many massive batteries it would take to power Wembley Stadium? Our guest today is Cillian (aka The Batt-man) who is here to tell us everything we’ve ever wanted to know about batteries, including a big revelation about electric cars. Apparently they’re not all that? This episode is brought to you in partnership with East Start Batteries. You can find out more about them here: https://www.easystartbatteries.co.uk Come and see us live at The Clapham Grand on 3rd December!

Fascinating even though I'm in the industry

As a regular listener and a cremation technician, I found this episode fascinating. I know a few funeral directors and they're full of good stories. Cremations usually happen around 800c - 1000c though (sometimes higher or lower), not 400c. but otherwise he hit the nail on the head with that side too.

AWESOME!

I'm a big Quins and Joe Marler fan anyway but this is like the icing on the cake with cherries, sprinklies, chocolate buttons and smarties.
Insightful, honest and hilarious interviewing. Cannot recommend enough
.
You should have the opportunity to give ten stars and I would add loads of hearts but my laptop doesn't have that function :-)

Hilarious look at life through a rugby legend

Love this podcast which wasn't skewed by my respect for this supreme player and him being a wonderful human.
My wife who was unfamiliar with the host was also laughing and smiling all the way with me.
Cannot recommend enough.
