Why Would You Tell Me That‪?‬ Neil Delamere Dave Moore

Why would you travel to the other side of the world to play football in a rainy toad habitat? This is what Paul Watson, journalist, author and football enthusiast, found himself having to answer when he ended up in Pohnpei, a Micronesian island, with the mission to bring them the joy of football. It’s a story that involves calling on the Mormons, trying to win just one game of football and ending up in a bank in London with a suitcase full of money! There is so much to Paul’s story that we will have to do a second episode soon!

Menswear writer Derek Guy joins the lads on this week’s episode to explain why a monarch across the water might just have effected what you wear.
Can his tips ensure the Neil and Dave are invited to the next Met Gala? One can only hope.
Part 1 sees Neil’s travel tips help Dave find restful holiday destinations. He needs them. He’s very busy. He’s mainly busy telling us how busy he is, but he’s busy nonetheless.

The fact that sharks have no bones is mind blowing. The fact that this fact is merely one of about 20 mind-blowing shark facts on this week’s podcast is even more mind blowing! All of these facts (and something terrible about shark reproduction!) are brought to us by the amazing Jaida Elcock, Shark Scientist, PhD student and co-founder of Minorities In Shark Sciences. As if that wasn’t enough, you won’t believe how scared of your cat you should be!

Ohh this one is a cracker. Professor of Biochemistry Luke O’Neill walks the lads through the history of the brain. He covers everything from electrocuting dead frogs to accidentally firing a rod through your noggin and all the discoveries these events led to.
He also casually drops in which philosopher had the brilliantly named ‘exploding head syndrome’.
In part, one Dave finally receives the legal advice on the use of emojis that he so desperately needs

In this week’s episode, Dave has recruited actor, writer, space nerd and author of the brilliant Spaced Out - A Casual Approach to the Cosmos, Kalpana Pot, to frighten all of us! So many things in space want to kill us that it’s a wonder we’re here at all! But don’t worry, Kalpana’s really sound and delivers all our impending doom stories with a touch of grace. We also learn in Part 1 about “Safety Coffins” and what’s so very wrong with The Pirates of the Caribbean ride!
Kalpana’s book can be bought here:

This week the lads are joined by the magnificent Dr. Kit Chapman to explain the weird and wonderful ways animals were used during WW2.
In part 1 Neil walks Dave through the story of the Texan town that changed its name to get free TV. But both of these amazing stories frankly 
pale in comparison to the Dave's violent attack on Neil's choice of chocolate bar. 
You can decide who's right on this one.
