About this listen

A comedy podcast where a bunch of friends discuss the questions you never even knew you needed an answer to until you heard them.

If you enjoy shows like QI or No Such Thing as a Fish and want an alternative where the truth is important, but the random banter more so; this is the place for you.

Educational? ... Occasionally.
Irreverent? ... Usually.
Random? ... Always!

    It's huge! (That's what she said)

    It's chaotic! (When isn't it?)

    It's not recorded remotely (Sorry what now?)

    Yes! It's the WTTSO Christmas Special with more cameos than an Austin Powers movie opening.

    Expect guests a plenty, alcohol even more a plenty, kazoos, games galore and Ross' Birthday celebrations as we work out how to kill the elf on the shelf once and for all!

    Join Ross & Simon with Guests Olly and Sam as they drink, discuss and call people up in their search for the answers you need.

  • Episode 58 - How do merfolk procreate?
    Dec 3 2025

    Send us a text

    Something smells fishy!! - Mermaid + Merman = Merbaby... but how!?

    We're talking physiology here and there's much to discuss.

    With guest comedian Paul McHugh, Ross and Simon take a deeply educational dive beneath the waves, and tackle the age-old mystery: how exactly do merfolk… make more merfolk?

    Prepare for an ocean of uncomfortable ideas, wildly unhelpful answers, and biological theories that would get us thrown out of any reputable marine institute (or an unreputable if we're honest).

  • Episode 57 - If Cinderella's shoe fit so bloody perfectly, how the hell did it fall off in the first place?
    Nov 1 2025

    Send us a text

    Foot fetishists ahoy! This episode is for you!

    Ross and Simon have been joined by Ross' mate Olly (yes really, he has some) to discuss glass slippers, pumpkins, fairy tales and Disney plot holes.

    Was the Fairy Godmother a dodgy cobbler with a glitter problem? Did Cinderella fake the fall for dramatic effect? And more importantly, what does this say about female gender roles throughout the ages?

    From magic to physics, this episode proves once and for all that true love might be blind, but it sure as hell isn’t blister-proof, and we're not talking about the lads hands for once.
