  • 3: The Sea
    Joel and Dave discuss the sea. Dave, also known as Sea Dave, has spent many of his years living upon the sea and as such he is a great source of knowledge about this watery thing. Joel is quite good at pretending he knows things and he likes squids, which live in the sea, so he can join in. Their discussion is guaranteed to be informative, though not necessarily useful.

  • 2: Cats
    Joel and Dave discuss the glorious beast that is the domestic cat. Many of the original animations on rathergood.com featured cats and kittens. This experience, coupled with many decades of cat ownership, make these two splendid men an ideal source of information on the subject of the cat, just so long as you do not expect them to tell you anything useful.

  • 1: Dogs
    Joel and David discuss dogs. Descended from wolves but bred to be eternally joyful companions they are more like children than animals. Man's greatest achievement, the existence of a creature so pure of heart is a true wonder. Their ancestors, the ancient and mighty wolves of the frozen forests, must be turning in their graves. They also cover ladles, the oil with which you oil a ladle, and the way you can extract it by squeezing whales.
