Joe Marler's Things People Do

Crowd Networkcrowdnetwork.co.uk
Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too.   Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do.   Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.   To be on the show, fill in this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rfSo3PVJgtBRZHCCAZndem-iyy2EdvGcEYDqycsM2aQ/viewform?ts=62602129&edit_requested=true Come and see us at Pub in the Park on 18th May (Marlow) or 1st June (London)!

Episodes

About Poaching

Joe and Tom chat poaching, or anti-poaching with Jay. They discuss silly things like the time Jay’s whisky was stolen in the bush, the time Joe got ‘mock’ charged by an elephant and Jay gives us his best leopard impression. But they also tackle more serious topics like trophy hunting, sustenance poaching and the devastating impact of commercial poaching on rhinos, elephants and pangolin. So please be prepared for some difficult listening in this one. Grow the Show, become an official sponsor See...

About Ice Cream

After the highly-successful cheese and wine tasting episodes, Joe and Tom meet Julie, an ice cream innovator (not inventor) to test some 'unique' ice cream flavours including horseradish and violet. Warning: If you suffer with misophonia (intense rage at hearing people chewing) then maybe skip to the end to hear some very useful ice cream facts.

About Cults (Part Two)

This is one of our most fascinating episodes ever, and so it comes in two parts. Bexy Cameron is our guest and her new book is called Cult Following. Go and check it out. If you haven't listened to part one yet, make sure you listen to that before you listen to part two. It will be weird otherwise.

About Cults (Part One)

What's it like to be in a cult? To be told you'll only live until you're 14 but that's ok because you'll be X-men and you're being raised as soldiers in the Armageddon? To fight in the last battle between good and evil? Well, our guest Bexy Cameron went through all that and a lot more. Bexy is incredible, but we should warn you, a lot of what she went through is really quite dark. Bexy's book is out now - it's called Cult Following and it's fascinating. This episode is a two-parter, because we a...

Lions: Can they swim? And Marcus Smith gets called up

Joe, Tom and Dan Cole talk a little bit about the Lions and their latest tour game, but spend more time asking whether you'd rather be a shark who can live on land or a lion who can live underwater.

About A Rugby Miracle

This is the impossible sporting story. A team without a head coach, and without a hope, end up winning the Premiership title. And they do it the Quins way. The 'joovay' way. With old heads and young guns. Kicking to the corner and not the sticks. So after a few days MIA, we finally track down Joe to get the inside story from the man of the match in the final, and his captain, o captain Stephan Lewies. They're hungover, possibly still drunk, and emotional. It's an unforgettable episode. To grow t...
