Episode 98 - Michael's Obsessed With Rovers
Michael attempts to ask Matt a question, however, because of conditions he didn't ask for, finds himself needing to ask it in only four words. Once able to ask it, we learn about a house that simply has too many plug sockets and too little reasoning. Michael has recently watched a documentary called Goodnight Oppy, which is about the Spirt and Opportunity rovers on Mars and how truly amazing they are. The question then opens to the wider set of questions regarding what space related achievements we will likely see within our lifetime... A...

Episode 97 - Playgrounds Are Dangerous (ft. Rebecca)
Everybody has a good idea of what the most dangerous animals on Earth are. However, how often have you pondered what the most harmless animals are? Our trio also open their eyes and realise how dangerous children's playgrounds really are. Swings. Climbing Frames. Slides. See-Saws. They are surely just death traps and accidents waiting to happen. And don't get Matt started on roundabouts... Also Listen on; Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4ALgMJ4frGtkTfbRKfgHRy Anchor - https://anchor.fm/dogeesehaveudders Pocket Casts - https://pca...

We then learn of a Danish tradition which happens to you when you turn 25. We also learn, through science, of what the flavour of water really is, so you can have an answer for when the next person asks you to describe it.

Apologies for the minor echo, however the shed seems to be being used for its purpose and is too full for us to set up in, and so for a couple of episodes, Matt and Michael have recorded in their new backup room (which thankfully, hasn't got a metal roof so we could record in the rain!). For the main topic of today, Michael breaks down some newly discovered products of the famous Mandela Effect which he has come across online regarding a famous cartoon and a hit Queen song... Matt also regales us with ye...

Episode 50 - A Memorable Halloween
In this episode, the pair revisit Matt's folder and dive into some fun facts (or facks, as he's labelled them) which include a strange crime and how they got caught and Michael has a crack at guessing some films. Matt also ponders the question (in July for some reason) and wants to know what Michael's most memorable Halloween was...

Episode 49 - Building A Snake
Michael starts today's episode, having done some research, on the topic of languages; more specifically, questioning what is currently the youngest language in the world (as we all know Latin is one of the oldest). We also go through some notes which Matt has made on his phone, and it's clear that even he doesn't know what some of them meant, but he shares them nevertheless. Matt's wisdom from today's episode seems to be the belief that a snake doesn't actually have a body... Also Listen on; Spotify - htt...

Episode 48 - Shower Thoughts
This episodes begins with a little historic fact about London Bridge, the real one, which isn't actually in London anymore. Matt's Folder Filter makes a return, although it would seem that even he keeps forgetting what he'd called it; possibly now the Fact Folder (or the File Folder Fact File Folder). Michael selects a card and it is full of debate topics. Some seem to be very thought provoking questions of discussion, although it's clear to Michael that Matt's mind must have taken a wonder by the second question... Also Listen on;

Episode 47 - Checkers & Giraffes
Michael starts this episode by doing what usually happens on DGHU, by addressing an unanswered question from many episodes ago to do with checkers & draughts. This episode unintentionally finds its way on a board game theme from the very start, continuing on into a small bingo related story that Michael had heard at work that didn't go where he thought it was going. Then the pair learn about a human game of chess that used real(ish) soldiers and try to work out what other traditional games could be upscaled... Also Listen on...

Episode 46 - Undiluted Squash
Boris has finally said it's ok for Michael and Matt to sit together in the shed, so at last, the show returns again. Having hardly seen each other in person for months, the duo begin the episode discussing what they've each been up to over the past few months whilst locked away and stuck inside their respected homes. One thing Michael is very jealous of is the fact that Matt has been able to grow a somewhat decent beard. Apparently, Michael's been spending a lot of time writing whilst Matt has been out running, whilst ca...

Episode 45 - The Christmas-ish Special
Sadly, due to the lockdown rules in the UK, Michael and Matt were unable to meet up in the shed to record a big Christmas show with special guests. However, we still wanted to put out a 'special' show this Christmas before the year is up. And so instead, we managed to compile a range of clips which never made it into previous episodes for various reasons; too much rambling, prioritised more recent segments or just that we couldn't find a place to put them. And so enjoy an extra long episode of DGHU, and we...

Episode 44 - Vegans, Spice & Lobster Trauma (ft. Darius)
In our fourth episode this series with our friend Darius, we begin the show with the discussion on Darius's Seafood Plater which, for some reason, seems to be podcast worthy news. This leads the trio to further discuss how Lobsters should be cooked. Continuing the theme of food, Darius entrails us with a lovely story on how he antagonised some vegans at his campus and on why it wasn't his fault (which it was). Matt and Darius also team up to attack Michael on his picky eating and lack of a taste palette; especially when it comes t...

Episode 43 - Nicolas Cage & Ramen Rugs (ft. Darius)
Third episode with our friend, Darius, this series. We open the show with a Nicolas Cage question stolen by Darius straight from the show Community. We learn of a Nicolas Cage gift he also gave someone for a recent birthday. During this time, once again, the squirrels on the roof seem to chucking rocks on our tin roof so apologies. Darius also seems to have lost his bike lock key, so if anyone sees it. In the highlight from our time with Darius, we finally discuss a subject first teased at the start of this ser...

Episode 42 - Printers (ft. Darius)
For our second episode with Darius during our second series, we begin (seeing as it's close to Halloween which was definitely intentional) with a new game Matt's been playing called Phasmophobia, leading everyone onto a conversation about ghost hunting and learning all of the different types of Ghosts. In a topic Michael can't agree more with, Darius vents out his frustration on 'the bane of his life' that is the office Printer.

Episode 41 - Chilly Bottle (ft. Darius)
Finally, we've got our good friend Darius back in the shed to join Michael and Matt (we've even given him a new chair!). Our regulars are amazed by how religiously Darius wears his badge and how often he wears it during his day to day life. He's also made it clear that he's incredibly jealous of how comfortable Matt always is, somehow leading us onto what else we've been up to during the lockdown. Our highlight of this episode revolves around a Chilly Bottle Darius owns, or rather owed, as it seems to have gone mis...

Episode 40 - North London Land
To Michael's joy, Matt finally finds his "Filter Folder" which was introduced during our Zoom episodes; a folder full of interesting things Matt has decided to research. Upon choosing a card at random, Michael is educated on why gardening seems to be far more dangerous than he could have imagined, especially for children. We also look at the most poisonous plants the world has to offer, and a place in the UK which houses them all... in cages? Matt, being unable to read his own writing, believes this place is located in North London Land... (Th...

In this episode, we begin with a surprising announcement; that Matt is now a coffee drinker! They continue to talk about coffee and Hot Chocolate for a while and debate whether Matt is now going to be trying all the coffees the world has to offer. A flowing light up cable charging Matt's phone reminds Michael of a recent situation involving the renovation of his parents bedroom, which somehow leads them onto a discussion revolving around a Tetris sequel and Matt's brother being a 'chess champion'. Matt recalls a story from work where his boss sh...

Episode 38 - The One Year Special
Well, our little podcast turns 1 today!!! (More or less) and so we decided to celebrate with a mini party. We begin the show with something we've never done before on the podcast; Letting Matt read the intro. We spend a minute reminiscing about the good ol' days and remembering our favourite episodes so far, before turning on party mode and whipping out the hats and party horns. As a topic, we look at interesting birthday related records on Record Setter, most of which are oddly specific. Matt and Michael then proceed to create and set th...

We begin the episode pondering whether or not Matt should have become a doctor, after seeing an example of how he repaired a broom in the shed. We also thank Mercedes Fox, who kindly composed our second series intro and transition stings (links down below to her work). In the bizarre question of the day, we ask whether it is possible to snap an Owl's neck which is actually not as morbid as it sounds. Also Michael questions Matt on a story of his, where he tried to be an electrician at a very young age.

In today's episode, we cover some great news about the show, a little bit on Matt's work life and spend most of the time tackling a fly that keeps buzzing around Matt's curry.
