Well hello, been a while hasn't it. It's been even longer since a proper episode like this.

Jess Wright joins me for an episode about Blossom, a tall cow who was suddenly, and shockingly brought to my attention. This episode has twists and everything, so hold onto your seat.

Kept you waiting, huh.

Cowvid-19 is still ongoing, despite what the complete lack of uploads might lead you to believe.

This episode's pretty low effort, just me looking at some pictures of cows. I needed an easy path back in.

Cowvid 19 kicks off for real with this, a rewrite of the first song from Cats, to be about Knickers the Big Cow. I thought I'd get through more of the musical in this, but it's a slower process than I thought. At least I had some fun with T. S. Elliot's silly words.

I could maybe have editted this one down a lot more, maybe to just the song. Maybe I should have done that. I don't know.

I sing a fair bit in this one. I don't know if I'm good at it, but I suspect I'm very middle of the road. Also, you can probably tell the exact moment my flatmate got back in by the fact that I'm suddenly more hushed.

Hello. I was planning to end mid-series break at the start of April, but unfortunately that's not going to happen, as Animal Crossing has come out and taken up all my time. I mean, erm, because, due to social isolation, I haven't been able to have people round to record and rebuild the backlog.

So, instead, we're going off the standard formula for a bit with Cowvid-19, a Big Cow Mini Series which will be some fun cow related content to help distract from the more horrible stuff in the world right now.

Maria Webb joins me once again to talk about the Big Cow. Well a bit anyway, we touch on him a bit and then go off on to other topics. Cows do come up quite a bit though, as Maria tells us a tale of the final vengeance of a dying cow. We also talk about Japan a lot, because both of us have been there, and we both really like it; and then there's our relative experiences in working with dead people.

Talking points include: A confession to forgetfulness; Witness Protection for cows; the most horrific thing; a shocking reveal that I don't know when Ash Wednesday is; Fast Food Talk; A call to action, and a special money making opportunity for my listeners; a genuine mistake from an idiot; food health hints; tales of wombats; Australasian Handshake Mishaps; pies of varying qualities; and a Weekend at Bernie's Type Situation.

Another quick one today, with a potential name actually being given to the type of episode this is. In this one, it's just me, talking about Oliver, a regular sized Cow with a big ol' heart, and how he managed to help Helen, a Bison.

The animals in question are at the Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary.

You can find details about it at their website: https://www.lighthousefarmsanctuary.org/

There's also donation links there, if you so desire.

Guess who's back? If you guessed Geoff Pearson, then you're wrong. The Enemies are back at it again, trying to spread untruths on the podcast, whilst approximately using the name of Geoff Pearson, the farmer who owns Knickers.

Geoff's Back! That's right, the real Geoff Pearson is back. In January, he spent a few days staying at mine, and we managed to get this episode recorded. It was a tense, and emotional time, which is why I mildly messed up my opening in this episode.

Geoff tells me of how his life has changed since he's been on the run from his enemies. He tells me of the things he's going through, and the friends who are helping me along the way.

There was a powercut during the first upload of this, probably due to the enemies trying to stop it going up. Unfortunately that means I lost my notes, so no talking points today.

Micky Baker joins me once again, and this time we have a Cold Open. We also have a cold, well he does anyway, so he's snifflin' and snufflin' throughout.

Together, we take a look at the Nursery Rhyme "Hey, Riddle, Riddle", and figure out exactly what's going on. Who was the cow who jumped over the moon (hint, it's Knickers), what was the cat even doing with that fiddle, and why did Dish and Spoon have to run away? All will be revealed.

Talking points include: What does it mean to be buddy cops? Universal Diplomatic Immunity; Growth as a learned skill; Babies aren't people, they're not; Which came first, the Lewis Carol, or the Egg?; I try to remember the name of a Taylor Swift song; a Star Trek diversion; the background which is also the foreground; The Past (TM); Horses and Swords are good; and a desire for there to be no more content.

Also, if you're wondering, Mark Long went to both New Zealand and Australia.

Today, on Big Cow - The Podcast about the Big Cow, I'm joined by one of my internet friends, TheLordFool. And fittingly for that situation we're using their username. Also fittingly for that, there are quite a few bits in this episode in which we're making niche references to a fandom we're both a part of. If you don't understand it, don't worry, it doesn't last that long, and this is what I have to deal with when y'all talk about football or Breaking Bad or whatever.

Also, there are a few latency issues in the first 10ish minutes, which I couldn't quite sort out. Don't worry, they clear up later.

As well as all that stuff, we talk about Knickers the Big Cow, and what the world would be like if he could produce milk. One possible result would be "Knickers the Theme Park", a place which is only mildly horrifying. There's a whole lot of word forgetting too, mostly on my part; not sure what's up with that.

Talking points include: Enormous Beef; Knickers the Bumper Sticker, Knickers the T-Shirt; Holy Milk and a dairy explanation; The Knickers Pope; "Anyway, here's Meat Wall"; Is Knickers a Canibal?; Vore: "Living ViDairyously" a very good name for a podcast; Collegg; Putting government tech to good use for once; One Mighty Moo; This Cow is Big Enough for the Both of Us; I reveal my complete lack of understanding as to what "Spaghetti Western" means; and Knickers Bless Himself.
