What's All This Then with Charlotte McDonnell and Libby Watson

Neoneo, neo! Neo! Is the kind of thing Neopets would say if they were Pokemon, but of course they are not as good as Pokemon. They are just PNGs on a webpage. And there are millions of them rotting away in locked accounts. We're joined by return guest Alec Robbins, author of CRIMEHOT and narrative director at Squanch Games, to discuss the early 2000s browser game sensation. Back when you literally only had Internet Explorer and you were thankful for it. (And yes, it is British.) Plus, where did Keep Calm and Carry On come from?

Bing Bong Boohbah! Is not what any of the Boohbahs would say because that's not one of their names but I don't honestly remember what their names are. Bibbo? Something like that. We're joined by Jamie Loftus, host of the Bechdel Cast and author of the book Raw Dog and the forthcoming novel The Tower, plus like forty billion other things, to discuss the Teletubbies' weird cousin Boohbah. They are atoms of light and also furry aliens, or something. Plus, what the HELL is received pronunciation?

NOT ON MY FINE CHINA!!! Is what I'd say if you were putting your bloody nasty chips and minging gravy on my beautiful inherited dishware, and also I was Hyacinth Bucket.

Whey aye man, I'm feelin' proper mortal! Is a phrase probably used 10000 times throughout the 26 seasons of Geordie Shore. We're joined by podcaster Will Weldon, host of I Hate Bill Maher, to discuss a truly nasty reality show where Geordies get drunk and, occasionally, suck off a dildo. Plus, that time a guy broke into Buckingham Palace (twice).

Plus, whatever happened to Noel Edmonds...'s lobsters?

TODAY is gonna be the day that they're gonna... cover Oasis? Is what you're saying reading this right now, on your phone probably. We're joined by filmmaker and YouTube essayist Patrick Willems to discuss the mad Manc lads, their crazy relationship, and whether Wonderwall is good despite being played every hour in every pub on Earth. Plus, why is Britain's symbol a lion, if there are no lions to be found in England? (This is not political commentary but it sounds cool if you imagine it is)

Oh well never mind!! Is what I'd say if I was one of the hosts of Springwatch when the foxes we were meant to see yet again did not show up. But that's alright, isn't it, because we're British. We're joined by Liz Clayton Fuller, aka ipaintbirbs, to discuss Springwatch, the show that makes BBC stand for Boring Bird Content. But we love it anyway. Plus, the saga of Dobby's grave.
