I would like it a lot more without it tbh.

I totally get it. I don't have a problem with the amount of sex in the show, but I'm exasperated by how obviously and unashamedly it caters to the male gaze. The reveal of the three exotic prostitutes with a sexy gimmick each a couple of episodes ago was a perfect example. It just makes you roll your eyes.

Ever read a book?

Yeah, no I've got a hard science degree and I don't stick my nose up at people that study humanities. I mean scientific advancement is important and all but what the fuck would be the point of everyone devoting their lives to it?

Haha, well I am too! My mate is next door neighbours with Iain Banks in North Queensferry.

I've read a lot of his Culture series, but none of his non SciFi stuff so thanks for the recommendation.

Congratulations on the weight loss! I just found out I was insulin resistant as well (yay pcos is THE BEST) and am about to banish carbs for a little while. Oh well!

Aw jeez. I mean I guess it could work out great, but you're right it does sound sketchy as hell. Have you ever been able to talk to your sister about it?

I have no fucking idea what the deal is. Ubertrout keeps pulling me out of the grey like a babe but I have no idea what anyone is doing there in the first place tbh. Harumph!

Interesting format, I'll give it a listen!

Oh hell yeah I cry easy. I watched the Beethoven's 5th sequence from Fantasia 2000 recently and felt big fat tears running down my face when the big triangle butterfly saves the little triangle butterfly from the triangle bats.

I've now had about 4 people recommend WWDTM so it's sitting in my iTunes ready to go! I've also now downloaded Mike and Tom Eat Snacks based entirely on the charming title.

As a teenager I used to work as a beater and dog handler on a very expensive estate and I can assure you that old money can be absolute fucking cunts as well.

Hah! I just read Good Omens AND Bossypants this month! Loved them. Based on your obviously excellent taste I'm going to listen to The Fault in Our Stars immediately.

I am a big radiolab fan! Haven't listened in a little while though, thanks for reminding me!

rl big like bin bags full of leaves + when you kick them they rustle

Ooo thanks! I do like John Hodgeman, but have only heard him as a guest on other podcasts.

Thanks for this! Great resource on TV tropes, and I never realised that the nerdist actually consisted of multiple podcasts. Looks like there's plenty to look into.
