Description

Comedians Jon Lunger and Glen Tickle are rewriting all of Wikipedia off the top of their heads without doing any research. Each week they take a listener suggestion for a topic, or get the topic from a special guest.

Seychelles

This week we learn about the island nation of Seychelles, but we didn't learn whether it was "Seychelles" or "The Seychelles". --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/improvisedwikipedia/support
Hey! Starting today, we'll be posting NEW episodes on Tuesdays and CLASSIC episodes on Fridays. What better place to start than with Episode 1 - "Cardinals" This was our first go at improvising a Wikipedia entry, and we had such a good time we're still doing it. If you're wondering why we're doing this, it's a boring technical answer that has to do with the way we were hosting our files before switching to Anchor. Uploading nearly 100 episodes at once seemed like not the best solution, so we're adding them gradually, in order. In theory this will go on forever, because we'll be adding new episodes each week. Plus these episodes were recorded over two years ago, so even if you've heard every episode it might be fun to look back fondly on the old ones. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/improvisedwikipedia/support

Is it a religious ceremony? Is it a sport? Is it a hummus-based street food?

Okay look. Sometimes Jon and Glen really have no idea what they're talking about, and this episode is one of them. They talk a big game but at the end of the day they're really, really stupid.Β  Also that long running bit about Jon not having Glen's phone number takes a dramatic turn! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/improvisedwikipedia/support

Oh boy. We're gonna get put on a list for this one. How do you make C-4? Should you eat it? Why didn't the A-Team use it more? Should Glen and Jon have learned to weld?
