Oh yeah. Here we go. This one is, quite frankly, a classic of the genre. We discuss the German Jaeger "Oompah Welcome", comission a drawing of the same live on air, talk about medical silencing and the time Guy sneezed out a filling, explore the notions of what constitutes art with regards to frozen hotdog water, and briefly discuss magical thinking as an avenue for recovering from religious trauma. Basically, it's exactly what you would expect to hear if someone said to you "hey, listen to this hour-long Garfield podcast".

Oh blimey it has been a WHILE. A variety of great stresses and illnesses has befallen the IDLM household, and yet, we persist. So we are BACK, and we are talking about: Bedroom Slugs; Wedding Japes; Surprise Corona Virus; Garfield.
Slightly shorter episode than normal, but still absolutely packed with ripe nonsense.

As you might be able to tell, one of us really enjoyed this strip.
Today we talk about a summer fair, splat the rat, what looked like a penis, discuss the concept of encouragement once again, and imagine a world where we make a podcast about Peanuts and/or Achewood, two comics that it is actually possible to like. Also, Guy burns his bum off on a scotch bonnet. Then there's Garfield. Great.

Good LORD. 100 episodes. I genuinely cannot believe it. To mark this special occasion, we have an extended disagreement over the word "should" in a hypothetical situation where a Da Vinci Code-level secret is revealed, and King Prince Charles may have to step down.
We reminisce over a violence ape, argue the toss about cheesecake, and consider the importance once again of telling right wing candidates where to shove it. Then there's a comic about a cat. Super.
Thanks for coming with us on this journey! 100 episodes! Here's to many, many more :)

Good lord. Nearly a hundred. Can you imagine? You can't? Good! You don't have to!
There's been a bit of a delay (bronchitis, terrible, screaming depression), but now we're back and with absolutely no drop in professionalism or quality. Wonderful stuff. We talk about rollercoasters (again), Yuna is naughty (again) and mental health is discussed (also again). It's practically a clip show, it what it is. Catherine also demands I play telephones with her, and we play a brief round of "What's three times seven?" - the answer might surprise you!
Content note: suicide ideation is mentioned, and there is a discussion about very unhelpful experiences with doctors.

Cor, a sequel! But to an episode! Not a strip! What a thrill!
This week: Cat has hayfever, the death of the author is discussed, we have some thoughts about Street Fighter, and wonder why a giraffe is on a boob. We also actually disagree over the contents of a Garfield comic! Is Cat correct? Or is Guy gright? Let us know! We also talk about LARP, emotional reslilance, and, once more, media literacy. A Garfield podcast! Is what this is!

Ahahahahahah this episode is over two hours long ahahahahaa oh no.
Today's Garfstravaganza* is an inadvertent bumper episode! We talk about, in no specific order, Mad Max, cleaning the kitchen, experiencing America as a giant theme park, therapy, and dental work. Plus rejection sensitivity and the agonising horror of asking to be paid for creative endeavours. Then we talk about Garfield. But also that bit is broken up by further digressions.
Basically this one goes all round the houses. You're welcome.
*Nope. We've talked about this, Guy

Ahh yeah, it's time for another delightful glorp of sounds directly from our mouths to your ears. Give them a wash, yeah? You could grow potatoes in that.
In this week's episode, we have an extended discussion of analogue horror, forteana, and the underwhelming experience of considering a bigfoot. We think about the ghosts that live in telephone networks, consider the unexpected lack of importance The Bermuda Triangle plays in our lives, and Cat decides to get really into Warhammer 40k. Also there is a Garfield. We're sorry about that.

Oh by heck it's been a while! Once again, Guy has been Extremely Depressed, which makes talking about Garfield practically impossible! But! Things have improved! As they can and do! So here we are!
This episode covers: Telling people canvassing for Tory MPs that they should be ashamed of themselves! Advertising as a blight on the landscape! Rollercoasters! Appreciating the small successes in life! Garfield! Oh no!
Also, as much as it pains me to say this: Dammit, Cat was right.

Much like cross-country snooker, it's been a long break, but here we are! We've battled depression and terrible NHS waiting times, and emerged only slightly scathed, and ready to hoot noise into your earholes for almost an hjour and a half. Hooray!
This week: Rollercoasters, fear of heights, a birthday, freeze-dried hotdogs, and a cat as what doesn't like summer. Podcast!

Ohhhhhh yeah. Are YOU the king of the swingers? Good for you. None of my business.
In this episode we discuss passive-aggressive Bop-Its, enjoy a round of American Thesaurus Quiz, Cat attempts a cryptic crossword clue, and, finally, Guy and Cat land upon a potentially life-changing discovery.
NOW. Here's a thing. When you're exactly 56 minutes in, pause the podcast, have a think, and guess what the next ~15 minutes of discussion will be. Tweet us @IDLMPodcast with your guesses. No prizes, of course, but I'm interested to see if anyone gets close. Then we talk about Garfield. Begrudgingly.

Aye up, me ducks. It's another episode of everyone's favourite Garfield podcast! This issue we relitigate cheesemouth, once again call for siezing the means of production, and enjoy an extended digression regarding Guy's lived experience as a deep-sea fisherman. Then, in a shocking turn of events, we discuss a Garfield comic of load-bearing canonical importance.

Episode 91! Can you even imagine?! I don't need to, because I LIVED it. And you can too! Vicariously! With a dog collar and everything!
In this episode we explore the logistsics of a new office cleaning venture, Yuna the Kitten appears and purrs into the microphone, hotdog water wine is considered, and a Garfield is taken to a vet. Podcasts, baby, AWOOOOO (wolf howl)

We have faced parents, food poisoning, and a trip to Sheen, and we've lived to tell the tale. It's another episode of a very sensible Garfield podcast, and once again we urge our listeners to sieze the means of prodction, workshop how to use a Frankenstein in order to run an insurance scam, and very briefly lament the death of the inventor of poptarts. Then, with the grim inevitability of spilling bolognese sauce on a white linen suit, we talk about Garfield.

Rowing? Solved it. Sports encouragement? Done. Chimpanzee bus conductors? Don't even worry about it, we've got it covered. Well. Obviously DO worry if there is a chimpanzee bus conductor, that would be terrible, I mean "don't even worry about it" in a "we're discussing it so you dont't have to" kind of way. We also talk about Guy's terrible underwear, going "phwoar" at a gladiator, and, eventually, a rude cat.

Two months! Nearly two months! Hello beloved listeners, we're back! We've fought illness, dissertations, another illness, a Christmas, Wales, and Getting a Kitten, and we've lived to tell the tale!
That's right. It's time for another hour-long, in-depth Garfield review podcast episode! In this week's episode we talk about cars (not like that), cats (like that), anxiety, paganism, and, briefly, canal boats.
Thanks to Pearfalse for helping out with the sound equalising that makes this nonsense sound so dang good!

Ahh yeah, that's right; it's podcast time, you funky hunkers. In today's Garfield review podcast, we discuss the dissapointing lore-first approach of Ghostbusters Afterlife, the fundamental goodness of humanity, and explore a deep-dive of a horse. Also there's a cat that likes lasagna - can you even imagine such a thing???

Oh goodness it has been a while, hasn't it? Hello folks! We're back on our bullshit after a couple of months of repeated breakdowns and generally bad body and brain times. Sozcopters. Still, we're here now.
In this episode we rank Christmas treats, Guy gets raked over the coals for Being Weird, and Cat starts her Transformers youtube channel.
Quick content note: we do talk about losing a pet at the start and end of the show. RIP Bourbon, you were the best weird little guy x

Recording half an episode then another episode straight after? What madness is this? THIS madness is what this is! Today we talk about the logistical difficulties of making a Wotsit from scratch, Catherine develops a tshirt idea, and we discuss the benefits of being a stubborn git in the face of attempted social engineering. We also talk about siezing the means of production slightly more than you might expect from a Garfield podcast, but only slightly...

Well this is a strange one. A big old chat about neurodivergence (quelle surprise) interrupted by a "short break" because Cat had a meeting to attend. Then...SEVERAL DAYS PASS. We completely lose our line of thought (of course) and Cat is incandescent with rage at the comments because we recorded the rest before she'd had breakfast. Also, at the very end, there is a Grundle Moment (TM). My GOD we are good at podcasting.
