Episode 231 – The Never-Ending Baby Shower

This week on Crazy Little Thing Called Lovdev, Lovdev dives into another collection of bizarre, funny and thought-provoking stories from Reddit and beyond.

There's an AITAH post so long it had to be summarised before it could even make it onto the podcast, a confession from a man who secretly repairs broken things without permission, a very British problem involving a newly reopened park, and a weird news story that will leave you wondering how on earth it actually happened.

As always, there's plenty of comedy, observations, and the odd tangent along the way.

If you enjoy strange stories, internet rabbit holes, and a laugh at the world's absurdities, this is the episode for you.

This week on A Crazy Little Thing Called Lovdev, I give an update after my car ended up in the garage, forcing me to borrow my wife's car for the week.

We also dive into another collection of fascinating stories from Reddit, including a neighbour who reported a perfectly legal driveway only to discover his own garage wasn't supposed to be there, and a thought-provoking question about what happens to elderly widows living under Taliban rule if they have no male relatives.

And in Weird News... a California court case involving psychedelic mushrooms left me wondering how some headlines can possibly be true.

This week on A Crazy Little Thing Called Lovdev, I'm gearing up for my Half Soaked show and sharing a few stories from the comedy circuit, including the unexpected moment I found myself chatting to world snooker champion Kyren Wilson at a gig.

This week on A Crazy Little Thing Called Lovdev, we cover everything from awkward office friendships to blood donation guilt, bizarre comedy gigs and forgotten words.

We react to a confession from a man who fake laughed at a coworker’s jokes for so long that he accidentally became his emotional support audience.

Then we discuss a RandomThoughts post about the strange irony of regularly donating blood… only to later find yourself unable to help a family member in need because you donated too recently.

There’s also a surprisingly positive British Problems post about remembering the good things about living in the UK — which makes a nice change from everyone constantly moaning.

I also give an update on my recovery since my recent incident, continue reading some of the funniest and strangest comedy gig stories from The Comedy Crate, and in Weird News… we look at a word that’s apparently become impossible to search online.

Plus in “What the F?!” — a strange story involving gold coins.

We react to a confession from someone who secretly cashed in their brother’s winning lottery ticket and used the money to pay off their own debts… before the guilt slowly started catching up with them years later.

Then we head into conspiracy territory with a discussion around “Tartary” and whether old maps really prove the existence of a hidden lost empire — or whether the internet has simply done what the internet always does.

We’ve also got a surprisingly emotional British problem about people throwing away perfectly good toys, plus I read through some of the funniest and strangest stories people have witnessed at live comedy gigs from a post by The Comedy Crate.

And in Weird News… this week’s story is apparently so bad I genuinely had to give listeners a warning before reading it out.

This week on A Crazy Little Thing Called Lovdev, I talk about teaching my son how to ride a bike — and the moment he finally realised he could do it on his own.

We also get into a bizarre question from Reddit asking whether handcuffing a deaf person technically removes their freedom of speech… which honestly led to a much deeper conversation than expected.

Then it’s onto an AITAH story involving a 28-year-old man who’s spent nearly a decade gaming in his girlfriend’s family home — until someone finally puts the WiFi on a bedtime curfew.

I also chat about a recent gig in Wales, random thoughts from the week, and in Weird News… a council lorry sent out to deal with a pothole somehow ends up becoming part of the problem.
