why is his voice so echoy
more Maryland!
The most recent episode of Tosh Show features an in-depth interview with a runner that had completed this odd race, including some interesting history!
The YouTuber Atomic Shrimp did a video about Chesil beach
I'm sure the LLE crew are good in their place. But here they just sound like kids out of control compared to Tom's calm voice. A d that hysterical woman's high-pitched laugh? I'm sure there is some good content here; but I just skip these episodes because they are painful to endure listening to.
Bob is one of two guests whom I'm sure is a great person, but fits this show like a cow fits a glove. Compared to Tom's calm, leveled, reasoned voice, Bob's volume and seeming need for attention just grates a little.
My perfect crossover!
not cynical enoguh... all those vids are fake
juicy metal is my favorite musical subgenre
That "fire to creative work" question was so good!!! I was genuinely blown away by the answer, and then in retrospect the process of arriving to it. big big kudos to whoever put that tigether, it's a genuine highlight of the whole show for me

The fun fact about loud and quiet water is a pun. In German the word for "uncarbonated" water can also mean "quiet". The counterpart "loud" water is a pun.
Me, a Spanish speaking native, screaming at the podcast for them not guessing Anna's question.
Ashens' prompt was cut-off by an ad
People in the medieval times didn't just stink all the time, check https://going-medieval.com/2019/08/02/i-assure-you-medieval-people-bathed/ . But yeah, they probably did stink at the end of a hundreds of kilometers walk. And I'm pretty sure the flowers at the end of a plague doctor's were to mask the stench of dead bodies, not BO.
the plural for Sasquatch is Sasquatchewan
Ey Wren!
kinda gross you have an oil company as a sponsor
