  • 47. Can a Giant Do Pull-Ups? (A Letter From Daddy, Part 2)
    Hi friends! Buckle up because it's a good one. Today we sort of pick up where left off, after some chat about Munro's love for his job, polygamy, and the Maasai. After a quick visit to the world of unintuitively named places, we remember what's important and get back to the list! The second half(ish) is no worse than the first, and we discuss reading, writing, Munro's shocking language retention skills, repressed memories, multiple personality disorder, one-and three-year mortality rates, remarrying, Slovakian fight club, running away from home, 25 years of schooling, dogs vs. wolves, and probably other things. We give a deserved shoutout to Ragnar's mom, and get a skill from the other parent. This podcast brought to you by one singular set of parents who care more than any of you ever will.

  • 46. Baby Shark vs. Kim Kardashian (A Letter From Daddy, Part 1)
    Today's episode is great. Really great. We get our best email to date and you boys and girls are in for a treat and a half. But what do we discuss, you ask? We discuss leather, the most famous video, Munro's "beeper", toddler skulls, Poseidon's Kiss, Santa Claus, Alcantara, lying, how to optimally pick your nose, when to stop wiping your child, and Munro's pregnancy project. Munro wants you to believe that the skill is incredible, but that is for you to decide. Stay tuned for part two!

  • 45. Can Munro spell his own name?
    Hi boys and girls. Today marks the return of Munro, and oh how we've missed him. To celebrate we discuss accents, building babies out of sticky toffee pudding, the ultimate fast, the emu wars, meme websites, slap cooking and shake cooking, egg facts, shirts, English spelling and grammar..... and of course pooping. We also share Subway horror stories, and expose Mel's brief but impactful affair with Mick Jagger. Oh, and Munro shows us how incredibly, unbelievably, ridiculously, shamefully bad he is at spelling.... but we still love him and are glad he's back.

  • 44. We're all just neutrinos, bro (with Ólafur Birgir)
    Today, dear listeners, Munro doesn't care about you. We're terribly sorry. Please direct all hate-mail to him either at his home or (preferably) his place of work. Unperturbed as always, though, we simply whip out the ol' bench-warmer for a starting position. With him firmly on the mic, we discuss a boatload of topics including serial killers' parents, teaching primates to tie shoes, humans' crucial feature, the point of sex, a persistent drug myth, being wrong, The Bachelorette, talented children, and wasting one's time. Óli also casts more light on the latest and greatest development in modern-day podcasting: Dungeons and Demons Inc! We hope Munro hasn't ruined your week, and don't believe anything he says about it being due to Ragnar's last minute change of schedule or something equally crazy.

  • 43. Boys talking to their friends
    Today we woke Munro up and he responded by immediately saying horrible things about his future wife. Sorry Mel. This angry man then decided to give parenting tips, enlighten us on bread laws, endorse ketchup sandwiches (???), and refuse to buy a quality eye mask. Quality eye mask, you say? Why yes, we have a future sponsor that sells wonderful ones for only $30. We also discuss laser cooling, folding paper, the cost of the first microwave, the ultimate peak, castration, Ragnar's clothes, and jumping into the sun. In other news, the buttons are working, and we were recently the victims of a vicious attack. Goddamn.

  • 42. Ketchup sucks, just have mayonnaise like an adult
    Today begins with a special message from Gucci himself, the silly sausage. This episode is a doozy, though, and we're at something like our finest. We discuss dog buttons, functional birthdays, ways to mess with your baby, TV shows enjoyed by Irish people, actively vs. passively giving birth, whether gifts are good, serving blood cupcakes, and the age-appropriateness of sauces. We get an awful voicemail and we also design our signature pizza so DOMINO'S PLEASE SPONSOR US ALREADY!

  • 41. Women's pee pants (with Drew Masters)
    Today we break new ground! We finally get our hands on an elusive type of guest, one of the female persuasion! Very exciting stuff. We then proceed to converse with this guest named Drew, but Munro is not super good at it and can't always take part. We discuss international women's day, last names, pencil scales, American employment, banana bread, Gucci's future dog, sleep times, and death from molasses. Ragnar presents the single greatest idea anyone has ever had but somehow it goes fully unappreciated. We also get a huge Poppa Moffat related update.

  • 40. Love
    Today's beautiful episode is all about love and its various faces or something. Kind of. Before reaching that little slice of Xanadu, however, we briefly discuss eruptions, facebook anti-abortion ads, snakebites, and drinking mercury. Once things heat up we dive into pregnancy, ugly babies, robo love, reclusive anime love, following children in supermarkets, bodily fluids on dry floors, and Munro's newly discovered and fully theoretical parenting wisdom. There is a very long debate in there, and you better pick the right side. Also Munro says horrible, unforgivable things about Mel. Is there a better way to celebrate it being 22 days post-Valentine's? Probably.

  • 39. Guccopher Nolan, or: The Devil Doesn't Take a Break
    Today marks a weird kind of first sponsorship for the podcast, although most of us won't really be affected by it. We don't let that get us down, though, and we talk about various listener submitted topics like what not to put in your mouth (especially if your partner has ebola) and Irish news, as well as some Calling Munro originals like quinoa facts, emojis and gifs, pandemics and the devil, supervillains and terrorists, the difference between aubergines and courgettes, and the true superiority of either neutrality or of being a forest hermit. Munro then reeeaaally puts a downer on the podcast before Ragnar brings it right back with some sick skills.
