Why Would You Tell Me That? episodes

  • Welcome To Bookland

    Saddle up and set your phasers to "Eh, what?" as Dave introduces us to Bookland. It's a magical place that produces all the tomes you know. We'll let him explain. 


    Once you've come back to terra firma, let Neil reveal who was the most generous American of the 20th century and who played most unusual baseball match you can imagine.

  • The Birth of Incredifax

    Well, we've finally reached the zenith of utter nonsense with Dave revealing his new military contractor connections.


    Combine this intrigue with how Saddam Hussein was found and a soupçon of top notch papal facts and ladies and gents, we've got ourselves a podcast.

  • Get Those Pineapples Out Of McDonald's!

    In this week's episode, Dave hijacks Producer Nicky's cricket fact and "goes locust" while also describing a bug that is just the worst!


    Neil tells us why the pineapple did not go well at McDonald's, poos at his German home and impersonates a Donegal midge! You need to hear this.

  • The 12-Day Traffic Jam

    As befits a fact about traffic jams, you’re going to have to wait for it.


    Part 2 sees Dave delve into some mind-blowing trivia tidbits about some mind-numbing traffic jams.


    There are some quality truth bombs in there but can those little knowledge grenades possible live up to what Neil has described as “a top five fact for the podcast ever” from Part 1? He introduces us to the insects that will tell you how just hot it is. As ever you, dear listener, be the judge

  • Skin Me And Hang Me On Your Wall!

    In this week's episode, Neil tells us about the 49 states in the US where it's ok to do something with a deceased person's tattoos and, frankly, you'll never be the same after you hear it!


    Dave tells us how porcupines failed at evolution, gives details of a riot over hats that lasted eight days and explains why you shouldn't say Sahara Desert any more!

  • Dave Is A Fungi

    Fungi. Fun guy? Ah, forget it.


    This week's episode starts pleasantly enough and then — make no mistake — turns to filth.


    It's very harmless, fun filth, but filth nonetheless. We learn which author received a gift that enabled them to write an all-time classic and, in part two, Dave walks us through how mushrooms create their own weather. The detour in the middle on cereals, however, is quite the adventure.


    You won't believe why someone invented cornflakes.

  • The Place That Is Everywhere All At Once

    Well we all know the Holy Spirit is everywhere, but which country is in all four hemispheres?


    Fear ye not, young David Moore is here to explain. And if that doesn’t whet your trivia appetite, the lads also chat about the 'Man Who Lived Through Doomsday'. It’s a packed episode.


    Come for the facts, stay for what can only be described as Dave’s masterful bird impressions.


    Imagine Dr Doolittle sustained a serious concussion and you’re close enough.

  • That Fella In The Pub Is Dead!

    In this episode, Neil seems to prove the existence of poltergeists in a court of law and tells the tale of a real life Weekend at Bernie’s with snooker star Jimmy White! Not to be outdone, Dave reenacts your reviews and tells us amazing facts about your favourite show starring Chandler, Monica, Phoebe, Ross, Rachel and Joey. That’s right — it’s Six of One!

  • Dancing Yourself To Death

    You know yourself: another day, another session of rhythmically driving yourself to the grave.


    Neil explains to Dave just how this exact phenomenon occurred and Dave talks us through the weirdest car names in history. What exactly is a Mysterious Utility Wizard and where would one get one?

  • Mice Do CPR!

    In the second episode of this new (dare we say improved?!?) format, Neil tells us about Gino D’Acampo’s problems (no, not those ones) and also how nice mice are. Dave tells us about horseradish, passing by an ass and how he just doesn’t care. It doesn’t make much sense, so you’d better just listen!
