Like many who come from a rural setting to settle in a big city, it is wonderful to hear a podcast about recreational animal husbandry. The amazing and detailed graphic descriptions take me back to the farm. So glad this show does NOT look favorably on the elastrator and covers old fashioned ideas. Looking forward to more discussions that take me back to the visceral days past on the farm.

Usually funny, but skip the 1st 25 minutes of Season 7, Episode 8 especially while eating. Don’t ask why. If you do listen to it, don’t say you weren’t warned.

This is a delicious recipe for Zuppa Toscana - a lovely, hearty soup that pairs well with Why Would You Tell Me That. I do wish I could remember where I found it. The recipe, I mean. The soups is very good. The podcast is perfection. Ingredients 4 strips thick cut bacon, diced 1 pound Italian sausage 1 onion, diced 6 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 – 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning 1 1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste) 1/8 teaspoon cracked black pepper (plus more to taste) 3 tablespoon arrowroot starch 4 cups diced russet potatoes 32 oz low sodium chicken broth 1 cup full-fat coconut milk 4 cups curly kale Method Heat a large stockpot over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced bacon to a large stock pot and cook until crispy. Stirring occasionally. When the bacon is crispy, remove it from the pot. Drain the bacon on paper towels and then set aside. Remove all but two tablespoons of the bacon grease from the pot. Next add the Italian sausage to the pot. Brown the sausage and break it up as it cooks. When the sausage is brown, add the diced onion, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Let everything cook for a few minutes until the onions start to become tender, roughly five minutes. Next sprinkle the arrowroot starch over the meat mixture and stir until well combined. Then, add the diced potatoes and chicken broth and bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for around 30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. When the potatoes are tender, add the coconut milk and kale to the pot. Simmer until the kale is wilted. Lastly, stir in the crisped bacon and then serve immediately. Enjoy!

Police Academy Limited, eh? I’ll see your Beverly Hillbillies cultural reference, and raise you a Steve Gutenberg. (Sounds resembling the Tasmanian Devil having an aneurysm and nothing like Bobcat…)

The Voiceless Alveolar Lateral Fricative (ɬ) Found in Welsh as the double L (as in, Llangollen) and represented in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) by the character ɬ, this useful sound is a phonetic feature of languages as disparate as Cherokee, Hmong, Inuktitut, Mongolian, Nahuatl, Navajo, Sassarese, Taishanese (台山话), Welsh, Xhosa, and Zulu. I recommend practicing it with a paper towel on hand if you are just starting out and incorporating it into your everyday life when and where possible. Definitely five out of five stars!

Neil and Dave are the craic! I am officially terrified of space and sharks now. Additionally, raisins have zero business being in chocolate. If Mary Poppins is banned on Good Friday in Germany, is Pipi Longstocking also banned? Love youse.

These guys really know their yarn. If you love to crochet then this podcast is for you. I also love their Scottish accents.

Make sure you check out their other show about my family history - why would you Howell me that?

In no particular order and entirely incomplete: Texas: If DFW &/or El Paso were their own state, definitely 4 stars, 5 were it not for the atrocious drivers. Alas, DFW and El Paso are separated & surrounded by Texas, so 2.5 stars overall. & yes I know about San Antonio, Austin, and Houston, y’all are very much factored in. Oklahoma: We’d be the best if we weren’t so close to the worst. After all, we’re only OK because we can’t spell mediocre. 3 stars. Colorado: If all us non-Coloradans would stop moving here, literally perfect. 4.5 stars. Wisconsin: Land of cheese & surprisingly pretty. Plus y’all drank London dry when the Packers played there. 4 stars. Illinois: Like TX. Chicago is 5 stars for sure, & if you love corn I guess the rest is fine. 3 stars. Georgia: Meh, but the Uga is a goodest boy so 3 stars. Tennessee: Made Dolly Parton & my grandma, gorgeous state overall, 10/10 no notes, 5 stars for sure. Florida: You know what you did. 0 stars. Alaska: Basically Canada and the Wild West combined, 5 stars but mostly because I’m scared of y’all. Massachusetts: Boston is great but also terrifying. Plus I got extra credit in 3rd grade for spelling it correctly on a geography test so thanks y’all. Go Sox. 4 stars. New York: You also know what you did, but you’re cool enough I’ll forgive it. 3.5 stars. Louisiana: Food is fantastic but humidity is intolerable. Honestly, that goes Mississippi and Alabama as well. 3 stars for the lot of you. Iowa: I was pleasantly surprised but it’s basically Illinois without Chicago so 3 stars. Kansas: I’ve lost years of my life driving through your state. Eisenhower was from Texas & John Brown was from Connecticut. Y’all are extremely nice though, so 3 stars I guess. Arkansas: What does “The Natural State” even mean? Y’all know the rest of us have nature too, right? 1 star you pompous pricks.

Whenever I feel clogged, this laxative opens me right up. Free-flowing and pacific: each application leaves all of my orifices smiling.

Dave finally proves he’s the GOAT. The fainting goat. 😁

My dog loves to eat the leftover table scraps and I’m happy not wasting food but sometimes she would experience some unpleasant digestive… consequences. We call it boo-boo-belly and let me tell you, after a couple of hot dogs she could clear a room faster than Neil and Dave’s terrible jokes on Why Would You Tell Me That! Ever since we started giving her these dog probiotics though, things have been much better! Her belly is more comfortable, my nose is much happier, and now we can sit together and listen to a couple of radio hosts stumble around trying to explain history in peace. Great product, it really works!

This used to be my favorite podcast. Now that I know Dave doesn't like chocolate with peanut butter, I've begun questioning everything.

I tend to have a hard time finding socks that aren’t too tight around the lower leg, but these are just right. It feels like I’m being gently held. Comforting. Like a long hug from a friend. Pro tip: buy a 5 pack and save 20%. Keep up the great facts and funny banter, all my best from Upstate NY!

As a long time closeted gay man and republican senate candidate. I was nervous about moving away from my small town to become a puppet for lobbyists. I have a weak constitution in the best of times, so a good bathroom is key. Well looky’ here, the 4th floor bathrooms in the east wing are amazing! Me and my fellow republicans simply love them. They even have convenient round 3 in holes in each stalls where we can make small talk. They always say, the only thing better than a firm handshake is good eye contact. God bless!

Seamlessly fills highs and lows. Try it!

Going through the back catalog. Good fun.

An absolutely great sauce, goes with anything. Best to marinade for 30-45 mins before placing in the oven. Available in all good shops now.

I listened to this show and about an hour later the cramping started, and soon enough I was as bloated as a balloon in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. When the rumbling started I sprinted down the hallway and made it to the bathroom just in time for the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to stampede from my backside, laying waste to my home's septic system AND my will to live. After three hours of a pelvis-shaking assault, I was spongy and weak, surprised that I had any bones left. I cursed Neil & Dave with the little strength left that I could muster! You just have to listen to this show to get this. Love everything you do guys. Keep it going!

We named our cat Neil Delamere, although he goes by his nickname Yabo. Yabo was a climber who was part of the stone master generation in joshua tree and Yosemite. He was a unique being and brilliant and bold climber. He would sometimes exceed his ability and get the shakes on dangerous free solos. My cat gets the shakes too, but is fearless. He is pretty funny too, so we don’t regret calling him Neil, but it is more fun to call yaaaaaboooo when it’s time for him to come in. We live in the mountains and don’t have any neighbors, so we can yell pretty loud. We also live off grid, so listen to lots of podcasts. This is one of our favorites, but we listen to most things neil is in.

Each episode is equal parts funny and informative.

The perfect combination of wit and wisdom. I put it on the top my feed as soon as it comes out.

Simultaneously makes you go “hmmmm” while trying not to fall out of your chair from laughter.

Weekly dives into the weird and hilarious corners of the world we’ve never heard about.

Have loved Neil for a long time for his work in BBC comedy and The Bugle, but the pairing of Neil and Dave must be experienced to be understood. Their banter is like listening in on two of the funniest people around in the pub, and the winding way they teach facts and wonders from every angle is truly special. Five stars and a joy and pleasure for anyone who has faith in humans and loves learning and laughing.

One of my favorite guest hosts of The Bugle, Neil is. Why Would You Tell Me That, The Bugle, and No Such Thing as a Fish—the smartest, funniest Brit podcasts going.

This podcast is nothing like Obscure With Michael Ian Black, where he reads works of classic literature aloud and comments on them as he goes. And yet it still exists. What a world.

Just superb

Nice guys. Good rapport. Very fun accents. Highly recommend you check out Cautionary Tales with Tim Harford.

Would love to be sitting next to these two guys at my neighborhood bar. Great banter, and every so often I learn something truly weird.

I absolutely love this show! I love the dynamic between Neil and Dave. Genuine guys with some interesting content. Even heavier subjects are discussed with respectful levity. Can't go wrong with this podcast!

I started with the frog episode, and it totally delivers!! Great stuff!!

I got to interview with Neil and Dave for an episode in their first season. They’re fantastic hosts! Their humor and curiosity makes for an awesome show!
