Things People Do

We're back at the Clapham Grand with another live episode of Things People Did. Our guest this week is a comedian, podcast legend and gentleman with the finest sideburns around... it's Mike Bubbins! He tells us all about working on the checkouts before barcodes were invented, driving a van illegally in Toronto, and the time he broke a students leg while he was a PE Teacher (which was an accident of course). Add in a free packet of Welsh-cakes and a world class Elvis impression, and you've got yourself an excellent episode. Enjoy.

Have you ever thought to yourself, I wonder who the Usain Bolt of window cleaning is? Of course you have... Well, meet Terry Turbo, the fastest window cleaner in the world. Yes, we're being serious. Terry has broken his own world record 9 times, and is attempting it again this coming March. There is a lot of chat about squeegees in this episode, and Joe tries to work out how long it would take for Terry to clean the Burj Khalifa.

The show growing committee meet for the first time in 2024 to discuss the year of podcast domination ahead. It's slow progress, as Joe once again bemoans the lack of a neon sign for the show, and he's starting to worry that producer Ryan is letting power go to his head. There is however some good news as well - billboard in Leicester Square anyone? Joe and Tom go through some excellent guest applications for the show, and we have some excellent suggestions from our patrons. There is also talk of a 2024 UK tour... in a camper van.

We want ideas for the show, and questions for Joe and Tom! Email [email protected]

What is the first thing you would do if you were marooned on a desert island? With no possessions, food or shelter? A scary thought for your average human, but not for this week's guest. Meet Tom, who is an expert in wilderness bushcraft and all things survival. He knows exactly what to do in every perilous situation, and is here to share his knowledge with Joe and Tom, so they don't have to resort to eating each other. They talk about making fire, pirates and a spider that gives you a 24 hour erection when it bites you... so basically covering all bases.

Our guest this week is Chris, and he may just have the best job in the world. Chris designs, tests and inspects playgrounds... which means he basically gets to be a kid for a living. In this episode, he tells us about the craziest designs he's ever seen, some absolute death trap playing equipment, and about the time he got attacked by goats whilst inspecting a climbing frame. They also design Joe and Tom's dream playground... which is definitely not suitable for children. You'll see why.

Come and see us at The Clapham Grand on 16th January for our next live show! Ticket's only £15 here: https://link.dice.fm/C09cda047686

This is a classic episode from back when we had no listeners! Joe and Tom are refreshed and ready for the year ahead, and their guest today is Surgeon Chris - who is also a listener! He’s really into the pelvis, and just loves getting his saw and hammer out on broken bones, but has he ever operated on anyone with a mortal shell stuck up them?
