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.   To be on the show, fill in this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rfSo3PVJgtBRZHCCAZndem-iyy2EdvGcEYDqycsM2aQ/viewform?ts=62602129&edit_requested=true To come and watch the show be recorded live at London’s iconic Clapham Grand, click here: https://linktr.ee/thingspeopledopod   Hit follow, and tell a friend to #growtheshow.

    If there was a footballer version of Joe Marler, it would definitely be Jimmy Bullard. What happens when you put them in a room together? Mayhem. This episode is mostly a discussion about why Joe never calls Jimmy back, how much footballers earn compared to rugby players, and a ludicrous story about Paulo Di Canio. Brace yourselves for this one. Go and give Jimmy's podcast a listen!

    Things People Did, with Marcus Brigstocke: The podium dancing oil rig worker

    We're back at The Clapham Grand, and our guest today has the most ludicrous list of jobs we've ever had on Things People Did. Marcus Brigstocke used to work on an oil rig, where he practised for his other job as a podium dancer. He was also a rollerblading instructor, the 'chief beverages officer' at a Little Chef (remember those? whilst moonlighting as a world cheese judge.

  3. About Shoes: Can you cook a pair of Converse in the oven?

    About Shoes: Can you cook a pair of Converse in the oven?

    Today we are joined by Charlotte, who is a footwear technologist (no, we didn't know that was a job either)! She is responsible for making sure our shoes are safe, comfortable and that they don't fall apart while we're wearing them. This episode is full of random facts and philosophical questions about footwear, such as 'why do Converse get cooked in an oven', 'why are they called sneakers' and 'do slippers count as shoes'? Joe also talks us through his ridiculous number of shoes... can you guess how many pairs he has? You won't believe it. 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?

    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!

    About Pilates Instructors: A popular form of exercise or a religious cult?

    It turns out that there is a lot more to the popular form of exercise 'pilates' than meets the eye. In this episode, we meet Chloe, who is a qualified instructor and knows everything there is to know about pilates. There are lots of instruments that sound like they could be used for torture, there are 'elders' and a metaphor about a tree that cn get quite out of hand. Chloe is also very good at fixing people's physical problems through pilates, and there are lots of tips in this episode that might just sort your back out.
