The Sheep Never Met the Lion & Dan’s Great Puberty

Send us Fan Mail This week on Smack Talk City, we uncover the greatest act of podcast theft since someone first put two microphones in front of two idiots and called it content. Apparently Joe and James from Fact Up have taken one look at our carefully crafted format, unplanned waffle, half-remembered facts, questionable animal knowledge, occasional Office references and the general sense that nobody knows where any of this is going, and decided to build a whole podcast around it. Rude, frankly. We’re not angry. We’re just disappointed.Once we’ve dealt with the obvious intellectual property crime, we get into Britain’s inability to cope with any weather that isn’t mildly disappointing, Southwest Trains turning a short journey into a hostage situation, dogs with poor communication skills, school proms, leavers books, and the profound mystery of whether fish actually like to swim or are simply trapped by biology. There’s also a deep philosophical dismantling of the classic “lion doesn’t concern itself with the opinions of sheep” quote, mainly because we’re not convinced the sheep ever met the lion in the first place. Then, naturally, we end up reminiscing about school, cheap beer, playground swings, and Dan’s frankly unfair puberty. Also featuring: sweaty trains, trash swans, bunk light bills, Steve barking, and the brutal truth that some people simply win puberty harder than others.  Warning: Contains sausages, swearing, nostalgia, and absolutely no measurable personal development. #getamongstthemeat
