Lost In Postulation

After their trip to South Dakota, Neil and Nicola are back with more postulations! In a rare instance of vulnerability, Neil opens up to the audience about a traumatic experience from a board game night (1:05). Then, after a brief aside on the enduring accuracy of Wikipedia (7:30), they reveal their sympathies for a certain side in the Duvet Wars (10:00). Are separate duvets always better? And what should you do when you are staying in a hotel?

The main postulatory segment sees the return of the many Mount Rushmores. First, perplexing poll results are revealed from last week that reveal a surprising (and, perhaps, dissapointing) level of conventionality and conformity from the LIP community (17:12). Then it is on to Mount Chucksmore, where Neil and Nicola attempt to reach a consensus to determine the four greatest comedians that have succesfully transitioned to serious dramatic roles (25:30). Spoiler: they fail and will need your help in another run-off vote!

Neil and Nicola come to you from the Black Hills of South Dakota for a round of momentous postulations!

After some puzzling talk about generational divides, Neil evaluates David Sedaris' posutlation abiltiies (9:30). How should you go about eating a car tire? And is consuming a door still a preferable (and marginally healthier) endeavor?

Then, they introduce a new postulatory device: The Mundane Mount Rushmore (17:00). What are the four greatest sauces of all-time (19:25)? Is ketchup the George Washington? Do dips count as sauces? And where will this great monument be located?

Then, they dip into the pop culture realm as Mount Board Game also needs to be adjudicated (38:10). Nicola rolls the dice in search of a unified theory and Neil chimes in with his expert knowledge. Will there be space for a Chinese classic? And who will be crowned the Teddy Roosevelt of board games?

Finally, there is space for Movie Corner (57:25), where Nicola seems to have missed something from Barbie and Philip Seymour Hoffman is honored.

Neil and Nicola are joined by a very special guest on this episode: Eric Mittenthal, President of the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (3:53)! After spending the better part of a year investigating and talking to sandwich experts, LIP finally gets to hear the other side of the story. Is a hot dog a sandwich? What is the mission of the NHDSC? Would they be willing to sit down for a peace mediation with the BSA? All of this and much, much more on this episode of LIP!

Neil & Nicola kick the new year off in the only way they know how: by postulating about what 2024 will bring (7:21)!

Will we expand our diets to include hairy eight-legged critters with a surprisingly high level of protein? Who will win the so-called streaming wars? Will 2024 be a year about treating yourself or will we bow to the corporate machine? All of this and much, much more on this episode of LIP!

On this special bumper-episode, Neil and Nicola's postulations take a dark turn. First though, there is talk about Spotify Wrapped's new innovation and what else the concept could be applied to (7:35). And, for some reason, Neil keeps mentioning his Garmin watch.

Then, Neil presents his case for a postulation about cults (20:45). What is a cult? What is the history behind some of the most famous (or infamous) one? And can the guys manage to postulate their way through creating one of their own (44:00)? Why does Olivia Coleman get a shoutout? And will the Gulf welcome us with open arms?

All of this and much more on this episode of LIP!

What if I told you there was a club that trumped any notion you might have of cult status? What if I told you there was a club whose own fans rebuilt their stadium? A club whose corner flags have been designed by one of their own? Whose owner is a fan? A club with deep roots in an old geopolitical divide that has now galvanized global audiences?

On this episode author Kit Holden joins us from Berlin as we discuss his book 'Scheisse! We're Going Up!: The Unexpected Rise of Berlin's Rebel Football Club' (2:03). We cover a lot of ground including what makes Union's fanbase unique, what their history as a club from the former East Germany means and what is going on at the club this season (31:20).

The season of postulation is upon us! Neil and Nicola don't hold back on this episode as they delve into a mundane philosophical rumination on wishes (6:10). Is 1 wish now better than 3 wishes 5 years from now? What is the actual cost of delayed gratification? And, Marty, who's the president in 1984?

Then, the Sandwich-Hot Dog Wars continue as they reach out to the National Hot Dog (and sausage!) Council for clarity (19:00). Will LIP be the mediator of the upcoming peace negotiations between the warring parties or does nobody actually desire a lasting peace? What does Matt Damon have to say about it? And is Kobayashi the GOAT of the hot dog eating contest?

Nicola rounds things off by placing a call to a notorious petrol station on the outskirts of Cardiff (47:28). Should providing the wrong phone number on your google page result in an automatic 1 star rating?
