    JAN 11

    S6 | E7: Down Among The Sheltering Palms

    This one’s got it all (if by 'all' you mean an American soldier, a nostalgic return, and a dancefloor encounter). Chris and Damo try to uncover the episode’s twists, turns, and questionable romantic choices, with plenty of 80s wrestling moves along the way Throw in some mysterious women, and a side helping of "Wait, what just happened?" and you've got yourself another classic TOTU.

    S6 | E6: Where's Your Sense of Humour?

    This episode starts off with Damo's void of darkness and finishes with a non-ending... other than the mention of a piglet crossed with a fish creature. It could only happen on the TOTU podcast so strap in, listen carefully and where's your sense of humour?

    Halloween Special: Inside No.9... Dead Line

    In a spine-tingling Halloween special, Chris and Damo dive into the murky, twisted world of Inside No. 9, dissecting the creepy classic episode Dead Line. This episode begins with a shout-out to the eerie influence of Ghostwatch—where the paranormal bleeds into reality—and somehow, in a fashion only these two can manage, wraps up with musings on Mick Hucknall. Expect spine-chilling speculation, inside jokes, and the kind of clever twists only a couple of fools can summon. Will they make it out unscathed, or will they fall prey to the unexpected (again)? Only the brave dare find out.

  5. S6 | E5: Heir Presumptuous

    S6 | E5: Heir Presumptuous

    Q: What's better than David Cassidy featuring in a TOTU episode? A: Well it's definitely not two David Cassidys featuring in an episode because this smug bastard would be a nightmare to deal with. However, we do end up with an episode from the US - one of the ones which looks more like an episode of Columbo at times. See how you get on with an episode hinging on circumstance and confusion to get away with murder!

    S6 | E4: Clerical Error

    In a behemoth episode we introduce a new voice to the podcast. Yes, joined by Charles, we smash through the 2 hour mark and discuss his favourite episode... it's been a few years in the making and was a pleasure to record. Plus, Damo goes all Columbo and unearths evidence of how this episode lies at the centre of one of Dahl's last, and controversial, publications. Listen 'til the end.

    S6 | E3: A Sad Loss

    Back again... I really enjoy typing that. Very satisfying. This one is all about the tiniest hotel, the tiniest swim shorts, and the tiniest reception desk. There's also (as usual) some unexpectedness - however well it works... or not. Along the way, Chris and Damo will venture into a smattering of 80s related trivia with only the briefest mention of filling a cocktail glass full of... something. A normal episode really.

  8. S6 | E2: The Memory Man

    06/22/2024

    S6 | E2: The Memory Man

    There's been a bit of a gap between this and the first episode - it has been very busy... Head like mom's spaghetti - and it's complete coincidence that this episode is about a memory man because a lot of the gap was caused because I kept on forgetting to upload. Join Chris and Damo for today's episode, The Memory Man.
