What's All This Then with Charlotte McDonnell and Libby Watson

I got your fackin' nose mate... Is what Jason Statham might say if he were your unpleasant uncle. God I hated adults who did that. You're NOT funny. Funny is quoting the Simpsons. We're joined by Andrew Law of Boonta Vista to discuss the work of Jason Statham, with an extended digression into The Beekeeper. Plus, are they putting Woke Beavers on our money?Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

Bing bong bing bong... bing bong bing bong! Is what I'd say if I was Big Ben and it was half-past the hour. We're joined by comedian Jeremy Kaplowitz, host of the podcast Quorators, to discuss Big Ben. What's all that about, eh? Massive clock in the middle of London? Did You Know It's Actually Just The Name Of The Bell Not The Name Of The Tower???? Plus, why is there so much nudity on British television, and is any of it any good or is it all just a bit minging?Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

This is not just any podcast... is what that lady from the M&S adverts would probably say about this episode, if she ever heard it. This week we're joined by our first ever guest Jesse Farrar, of Your Kickstarter Sucks and the Go Off Kings, to discuss the store Marks & Spencer! Plus, Charlotte explains what happens when people are done watching Eastenders and they all turn the kettle on at the same time.Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

ORNGGGK! Is what I'd say if I was a Kremling and Donkey Kong had just bounced on me head. We're joined by writer and artist Alec Robbins to discuss Donkey Kong Country, which was made in Britain and thus counts as a topic for our show. Plus, a fascinating look at the Weights and Measures Act. No really it was interesting.Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

One Bendy in a Bun, please! Is what you might say if you were ordering at Wimpy, and you wouldn't think of anything of it. That's normal to do there. Our friend Nick Wiger of Doughboys and Get Played returns to tackle Wimpy, the burger chain that started in the US and is now headquartered in South Africa but is still a treasured nostalgic treat among old British berks. Plus, why DO British people drive on the wrong side of the road?Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

He wishes he was Camilla's WHAT? Is what Princess Di might have said when she heard about Tampongate. (If you're saying the same thing, don't worry: We do a dramatic reading of the whole thing.) We're joined by writer and comedian Grace Freud to discuss our beloved Princess Diana, and I think we do a really good job of being funny about a bunch of stuff that is honestly so sad and fucked up.

I hate your stupid cheesecake you bloody berk! Is what you might say if you were on an episode of Come Dine With Me. We're joined by Boonta Vista's Ben McLeay to discuss a very British television show where pissed-off people throw dinner parties, resent each other, and then look through someone's underwear drawer on national television. Plus, do British people really not rinse the soap off their damn plates?Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

YummmMMMmmm! Is what I'd say if I liked Marmite and I was eating some, but I DON'T and I'm NOT and you can't make me. We're joined by John Hodgman, the writer, comedian, podcaster, and internationally beloved New Englander, to discuss one of Britain's most polarizing brown pastes. What is it made of? Why does it taste like that? Do people only like it or hate it, or is it sometimes just sort of 'fine? Plus, some very violent football that only happens on Shrove Tuesday (we do explain what Shrove Tuesday is too, so don't fret).

OOOOOLONG! Is what the alien noise from this weird-ass album sounds like to me, but I don't think that's right. It is a good type of tea though. We're joined by writer and very smart person Eva Anderson to talk about something very stupid: A weird concept album from the '70s, by an American, that for some reason is huge in the UK and thus has an extremely popular 'immersive experience' in London.

Hear ye, hear ye! Is apparently not something that Lord Mayors say but I really thought it was. Maybe I was thinking of town criers but now I'm not even sure if they say that there. I'm mostly thinking of Homer in that one Simpsons episode, I guess. Our friend Mattie Lubchansky is back to discuss Fraudulent Fred Ferkel, Christmas crackers, and crazy-ass roundabouts before we learn what a Lord Mayor does.

GREASE ME UP! Is what I'd say if someone offered me a full English breakfast, and then I guess they'd be like "huh?" and I'd have to explain it's a Simpsons quote and yes I would quite like a full English breakfast, which is traditionally quite greasy. Today we're joined by certified cool guy Steve Sladkowski of PUP to discuss what he called, and I am just quoting here, "one of [Britain's] great contributions to world cuisine." Perhaps damning with faint praise, but nevertheless!

Eh-oh! Is how those stupid idiot Teletubbies think you say "hello." Our wonderful friend Stefan Heck, host of Blocked Party and the Go Off Kings, returns to talk smoothies, Christmas crackers, and bettering ourselves, before we figure out what the deal with the Teletubbies was. Most importantly: Was Tinky Winky GAY? Plus, another vital edition of Sausage Watch, and we work on our pitch for a gritty reboot of the Teletubbies.Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

Long have I yearned for this episode's release... Is what you'd say about this episode if you were Tolkien, but alive and a fan of the show. Libby tried ever so hard and mostly failed to hide how excited she was to have Bill Corbett, from Rifftrax and Mystery Science Theater 3000, on the show, to talk to us about Lord of the Rings! Plus, we made him look at some really horrible, dirty sausages, and talked about the best MST3k episodes filmed in the UK.

A BONUS episode on the MAIN feed? Can they do that? We're too busy letting the Christmas pudding settle and muttering "I suppose I'LL do this then" while picking up all the wrapping paper to record a new episode this week. Instead, have one of our best Finest episodes from behind the paywall: A history of Charlotte's BBC show Chartjackers, where she tried to get a song to the top of the charts using only the mystical new power of something called "You Tube."

Ohhhh I bloody love Christmas but I bloody love ADVERTS more! Mmm yummy I want to watch them all even more than I want a mince pie! Is what Asda hopes you’re saying every year. Justin McElroy joins us again to discuss whether British people eat soup, before we dive into an exploration of the weirdly emotional, long, expensive Christmas ads that somehow became A Thing in Britain.

What's your budget? Is what Kevin McCloud would say to me if I said "Hello" to him. He bloody loves saying that! Today we're joined by the video essayist Jacob Geller to discuss Grand Designs, the show where a slightly bitchy but utterly delightful British architect goes "WOT?" at people trying to build some crazy-ass houses.

Drag Me Down! Is what I would say to a demon popping his little fiery head up from Hell if I was trapped in a room with One Direction playing. We're joined by Kendra Wells, the wonderfully talented artist who authored the entire fuckin books Real Hero Shit and the forthcoming Real Hero Shit 2: Harder Than It Looks (and drew the art for our show!!), to discuss One Direction. Are they a cynical product of Simon Cowell's demonic machine, or just some nice boys? Was the fandom a bit of fun or super weird and nasty? All This and More, like BLOODY WOKE CHRIMBO TREES??? and a One Direction personality quiz, which you can take yourself!

A-HA! Is the only thing I could possibly have written for this bit of the Alan Partridge episode description. We're joined by Dan O'Sullivan, host of The Outfit, to discuss how BLOODY good Alan Partridge is, plus Irish opinions of Britain and a couple heating their home with a data center.

Really? Is what I'd say if you told me you loved playing rounders. Today we're talking about rounders—not the 1998 movie starting Matt Damon and Edward Norton but the slightly rubbish British version of baseball—with Lauren Walker of the Batting Around podcast and Rotating Sandwiches website. Plus, the baffling Leicestershire tradition of bottle-kicking, and we pit some British sandwiches against some American sandwiches—and if you want to see what a toast sandwich or a "Beef Manhattan" look like, sign up for the video tier!Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

Hello Jessica Hynes! Is what I would say if I was transported back in time to the set of Spaced, because she's the main one I would like to talk to, honestly. I would ask her how she is doing and if I could get her a cup of tea or anything, and does she know she'll get to snog Doctor Who in about 10 years? We're joined by Rocky Pajarito, one quarter of the dazzlingly talented, prolific, and frequently wet improv group Everything Now Show, to discuss the cult classic sitcom Spaced.

[Headlights flashing in the dark; what could it mean? Just a lost driver, or perhaps a lonely soul looking for something more?] Is what might happen if you went dogging in one of England's green and pleasant lay-bys.

Who's this Guy then? Is probably what they said when they found the bloke with all the gunpowder under Parliament, and how amusing that would have been, due to what his name was. We're joined by our streamer friend Ricky Peacock to talk chicken "burgers," comedy college, and Conker News, before we figure out whether Bonfire Night is good or bad or maybe even racist, somehow.

OooOOO how'd 'e do that then! Is what you'd say if you were watching Derren Brown make a guy think he really wants a sausage roll or whatever. It's our first All In-Person episode! We recorded an episode in an actual bloody room together with our first return main feed guest, Slowpuke, to discuss Britain's greatest magician and the absolute mentalist, Derren Brown.

Connect! Is what I would be saying, beaming and placid, with jam around my mouth, if I was mistakenly placed on an Only Connect team. We're talking about Da Smart People Show For Brits with Josh Boerman, host of the Worst Of All Possible Worlds and Ill Conceived, who also has opinions about Irn Bru and whether British people are worse to work with than Americans. Plus, more controversy at silly sports with the stone skimming championships, and Charlotte does a Charlotte-themed Charlotte's Game, which is rather appropriate, don't you think?Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

That's Quite Interesting! Is what you would say if you turned on BBC One at 10pm on a Saturday, I think, in like 2005. We're joined by Justin McElroy, the outrageously prolific host of My Brother, My Brother and Me, The Adventure Zone, and Sawbones, to discuss panel shows, Christmas puddings, a Target wot fell off a hill, and what the King's Remembrancer does.

Oughhhhgurhhhh chocolate mmm oghhh I need it I'm on my period and I need chocolate. Is what I'd be saying if I was eating a Crunchie instead of writing this god damn podcast description! We're joined by Gareth Reynolds, host of Next We Have and The Dollop and another Real Life Brit (who is also American) to discuss the vast and wonderful world of British chocolate, from Maltesers to Mini Eggs. Actually we didn't talk about Mini Eggs but those things are so good.

I have a cunning plan! Is what YOU should be saying about your great idea to listen to this podcast. We're joined by the one and only Hayes Davenport, host of Hollywood Handbook, to discuss the classic British comedy Blackadder. Plus: Hayes reads us some incisive class analysis from a 1930s edition of Punch; Charlotte makes us watch a bit of gravy wrestling; and we compare horrid traditions at clubs from Harvard and Oxford in one of the meanest editions of Libby's Game yet.

Pip pip! Is what we'd say to you if we were posh, which we're NOT. Not like these guys, anyway. Today we learn all about Posh People (Upper Class) with the wonderful Meagan Hatcher-Mays, Libby's Longtime Friend and the host of Text Me Back, incompletely tackling questions such as: What is with all the tweed? Do posh people think of themselves as posh? And why do they sound like that?

Start the fans! Is what we'd say if we were hosting the Crystal Maze, and it's what I'm also asking you to do—bear with me here—because I want you to START being FANS of this show. Yeah I think I pretty much nailed that. Our guest is the one and only Howell Dawdy, who wrote and performed our theme song and the fantastic album I Need Some Help, hosts an unmissable Twitch stream, and has two podcasts of his own—sort of making the rest of us look bad?

Hmm I don't like the look of these birds let's lop their heads off—is what Henry VIII would say if he stumbled across What's All This Then. Maybe. Or maybe he'd want to marry us! That guy LOVED marrying ladies! On today's episode we do some proper history with comedian Dana Bell, our FIRST in-person guest, with whom we discuss a wife-carrying contest, Bovril, and of course, Henry VIII (except mostly we talk about Wolf Hall oouuhh it's so good).

I get knocked down! But I stay down! I wanna have a little nap! Is what I would be saying if I was writing Chumbawamba’s biggest hit, and I suppose it wouldn’t have done as well. Today we’re joined by actor, writer and comedian Phil Jamesson to discuss Chumbawamba, plus how fencing works, and why the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had their name changed in Britain. P.S.

We're joined by David Roth, a writer at Defector (and a bloody good one if you ask me) and co-host of the podcast The Distraction, to talk Popeyes, drinking beer from the river and Libby's disastrous Oxford interview.

Mmmm, mushy! Is what you'd be saying if you were trying the green goo that Brits apparently love. Or do they??? Based on a survey of two podcast-hosting British birds, the answer is: Yep, we do. We're joined by Twitch streamer and proper good bloke HCJustin, a recent convert to the Church of the Mushy Pea, to make the case for a food that honestly does look like Yoda barfed.

Groovy, baby! Is what Austin Powers would say about this shagadelic trio of smashing birds. We're joined by comedian and cartoonist Katy Fishell to answer the questions you've all been asking: Just how realistic is Austin Powers? Do we all talk/look/shag like that? Do we even say 'shag?' Plus, we examine the world's largest Scotch egg (how DO they make those) and play a bit of a terrible 1999 Austin Powers PC trivia game.Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

We're joined by Matt Apodaca, host of Get Played and son-in-law to a real-life Englishman, to talk Wallace and Gromit, our beloved Plasticine pals.

Crrrrunch! Is what you'd say if you were eating some lovely crisps, or maybe listening to the 1960s advertising hit When It Comes To The Crunch by Smiths Crisps. Don't worry, we get into it—with our great friend and new producer Patrick Gill! A talented streamer and Smart Video Guy, Pat is the reason you can watch VIDEO of this episode (available only on the Watch All This Then tier) and the only guy with whom we'd want to mindlessly list British crisp flavors for an hour. Plus, the Hackney Mole Man, and—what's this? CHARLOTTE'S game? How delightfully outrageous!Support us at patreon.com/whatsallthisthen for weekly bonus episodes, and video too!

You can watch just this first one for FREE on YouTube to see our friend Tom Walker—the wonderful comedian, streamer, and co-host of the Great Australian Bake Off—join us to discuss the singular magic of Mr. Bean. Plus, a fake historical game called dwile flonking, and Libby's Game.

Mind the gap! Is what we’d tell you if we were at Holborn or whatever right now, but we’re not. (Maybe you are, though? Send us an email if you read this description at Holborn.) We discuss the iconic London Underground with David Sims, of the podcast Blank Check and The Atlantic—but you could also say he’s from the “other side” of the Atlantic due to he grew up in Britain! Wow! Plus, we learn that many Americans are not quite sure if Britain marks July 4th in any way, and many British people are very annoying about that.
