Which is the Best? Podcast

Like a confused old lady, we've had another one of our episodes.

Each week, Lee Kyle and Sammy Dobson meet to decide which is the best between things of the same or similar names, because nobody has ever stopped them.

Cracking episode this week, as we decide between:

Ghostbusters: Surprisingly controversial film for children. FOR CHILDREN

and

Ghost bus tours: A tour, about ghosts, on a bus.

It has given us a wonderful idea...

For the second time in 53 episodes, we've messed up a bit, so this one is a bit thrown together I'm afraid.

There's the bonus episode we recorded for NARC a few months back on here, where we decide between Metro (Permabroken train system) and Metro (FM).

Then, we've chucked on a old episode of the little missed 24 Minutes of Funny Team podcast, where Lee and Sammy are returning from a gig in Sunderland in Sammy's recording studio (Car). We give out the real registration number of a driver who annoys us then Lee talks to himself near a cemetery.

Lee's tour (With Sammy doing support for both dates) is at:

Glasgow Stand Comedy Club on 9th January

and

Black Horse, York on the 10th.

See you next week!

We've done it! A whole year of podcast, one a week for 52 weeks! To celebrate here's us doing an episode of Which is the Best? podcast.

How like us.

Lee Kyle is a man, Sammy Dobson is a woman, they make a podcast, it's sometimes funny, sometimes thoughtful but it's always here on a Monday. You can't put a price on that sort of regularity.

They decide between things that have the same or similar names. That's just what they do. They're pretty damn unapologetic about it as it happens.

After last weeks regrettable drunken episode, they're back with a regrettable sober one as they decide between:

Plato: The thinking man's Socrates

and

Play Doh: The thinking man's plasticine.

They know more about one of these things than the other.

See you next year!

We could regret this...

Usually, Lee Kyle and Sammy Dobson meet once a week and discuss things with the same or similar name, then they edit it into a roughly 50 minute long podcast. They do this sober.

Yet, this week, due to it nearly being Christmas, they have had a selection of Christmas drinks and have left it unedited, because they can't face listening to it.

Well, that's only partly true, they remembered giving out some information about the sexual habits of a semi famous comedian so they edited that out but they're pretty sure they left much worse in.

They have tried to decide every one of the Christmas suggestions they got (Noel (Christmas), Noel (Edmonds, Gallagher etc) or Noe L (The removal of the letter L from the alphabet is one example)and they had some lovely cherry brandy.

This one is definitely too long.

We've reached Episode 50, which must be pretty embarrassing for all the teachers who said we'd never amount to anything.

For the past 50 weeks (and on into infinity) Lee Kyle and Sammy Dobson have met to discuss which is the best between things of the same or similar names. It's a relatively pointless task but so is life really.

This week, they over reach themselves be deciding between:

Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, The Rock, The Rock and The Rock.

What they have realised is that there are a lot meanings for the word Rock.

Tattoos are cool, everyone knows that BUT are they better than tattoos (As in the Edinburgh tattoo where people march up and down to the sound of bagpipes)? If they are, are they better than TaTu, the Russian pop faux lesbians?

Not everyone is qualified to decide such important issues. Luckily, Sammy Dobson (The drummer in Dogdeath in Byker Grove) and Lee Kyle (Currently heroically getting this podcast out on time even though he's on holiday) are. After all, this is the 49th episode of Which Is The Best, the podcast where they decide between things of the same or similar names.

If they can't do it now, when WILL they be able to? Never, that's when.

Listen to it, then join the Facebook group 'Which is the best podcast - The Horde!' where there is all sorts of lovely stuff going on.

Episode 48 of the podcast that, somewhat pointlessly, decides Which Is The Best between things of the same or similar names hits the airwaves (iTunes and that) and finally gets onto the debate the entire world has been waiting for.

Yes, this week, Lee Kyle and Sammy Dobson (Between them, they have been in a Palme D'or winning film for about 18 seconds) choose between:

Geoffrey Palmer: A sort of grumpy Richard Briers

and

Jeffrey Dahmer: A sort of grumpy Dennis Nilsen

Just putting out a bonus thing, some of you will have heard this before, so feel free to delete from your device or whatever!

It came to my (Lee) attention this morning that the episodes of my old podcast 21 Questions are no longer available, nor is our old 24 Minutes of Funny Team podcast.

Not sure how the land lies, whether I can put them out on another feed or not, I might put them in a dropbox and email them to anyone who wants them.

Or, I might add the occasional one as a pre weekend special on here now and again?

Anyway, this is one of those, it's the one where I interviewed Sammy, so putting it on here makes sense. We'd only known each other for 3 months or so at this point and this was kind of the catalyst for us putting our old sketch group together and then for us starting WITB.

The sound quality isn't as good as it is now (I think I was still plugging a mic into a laptop) but I remember it as being fun. Time to shatter illusions!

Episode 47 of Which is the Best podcast (The podcast where Lee Kyle and Sammy Dobson decide between things of the same or similar names) is the first where a guest joins us for the whole episode!

It's a cracker too, as Harriet Dyer goes off on some lovely tangents and fits the show like a bloomin' glove.

She does an occasional podcast we love called Comic's Stopover that you should try if you haven't.

This week we decide between:

Sauce: stuff you put on chips

or

Sauce: "Ooooh Matron, you don't get many of those to the pound!"

The second of two episodes recorded live at The Stand comedy club in Newcastle, Lee Kyle (Buy his book) and Sammy Dobson (Buy Lee's book) decide, yet again, which is the best between things of the same or similar names.

This time, after spending most of the episode dealing with live suggestions, we decide between:

OSTRACISED (Getting all left out)

or

OSTRICH SIZED (The size, weight and girth of an ostrich)
