Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including why the new Cats movie is anatomically incorrect and rather creepy to boot, the smart nappy for stupid people and an important lesson on how to pronounce the letter H, why painting sheep makes them question their sexuality, how Neil is like Jeremy Corbyn*, some shocking news about Benedict Cumberbatch, and the sad news that the writer of the Shake n' Vac jingle has died (one hopes he is cremated...). In rather shocking news of our own, not a single pet puts in an appearance this week. A combination of high temperatures and other humans in the living room upstairs meant they did not venture downstairs into the studio.

Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including the veggie burgers that aren't, why being premature is not great for your sex life (and we're not talking the overenthusiastic kind of early), how 600,000 people are gathering across the US in a Stephen King style end-of-days scenario just to try alien KFC, the coot that caused a splash (or lack thereof) and why you should never get on a rollercoaster with Neil (although if you are blind, he could prove helpful), and the mysterious case of the Herne Bay Ripper (no need to lock your doors unless you are made of paper and have a cardboard spine). As per usual, Monkey the Chihuahua makes several cameos. Though mostly silent, his entrances and exits are announced by our narrator* and the squeaky door handle.

Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including the cake that put a smile on the nurses' faces, the best birthday banner ever, exactly how you should eat ice cream (tip: do not lick it in Texas*), the trained attack squirrel, the march of the toxic German caterpillars (with a conveniently pre-written sketch to bring them to life), the man who went to his own funeral, and what happened when Mickey** visited the Primark Disney cafe. No fortifications were put in place, despite promises made last week, so a pet did get into the studio. However, Monkey the chihuahua was very quiet throughout. Good boy, Monkey.

Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including the story of the artist who has changed their name to Name Surname, thus creating an infinity loop on any telesales calls they might receive in the future, the mighty slug who can stop a speeding bullet(train), just how large the largest goldfish in the world is (top tip: don't ask a man to estimate its length), how you no longer need to stay at home for a duvet day, why when people say "it's as hot as an oven out there" you shouldn't reach for the olive oil, and where Anneka Rice and Bill Clinton's waxwork heads are right now. This podcast was recorded in the same session as last week's and so there are further pet incursions. Fortifications will be put in place for the next episode.

Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including the #hashbrownscandal at McDonald's, how good neighbours go bad*, an unappetising Wonka bar and news of Ribs's new supplier (of chocolate), why plumbers are not called Tarquin, why Seal should learn to do an impression of a seal, and how curly things thrown on stage could have your eye out (not as gross as it sounds). Plus the travesty that is the Finnish sandwich cake. And while there is a lower than usual ratio of animal to non-animal stories, do not fear - live animals infiltrate the podcast several times during the recording.

Comedians Ribs Norman and Neil Dillon chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including how "breeding like snails" is the new "breeding like rabbits", how people just want to be left alone (and how Ribs achieves that with pets and litter trays), why Facebook Live filters are not such a good idea for a government meeting (wonderfully reenacted by us in our Facebook group), why you should drink all the wine before you hand over the divorce petition and hide the pets, our petition for an extra bank holiday and Neil's crazy wed-min* requirements, how to hold up a bank (not on the aforesaid holiday) with a ripe avocado, the badgers that have turned in Lincolnshire, and the real cost of building a den in the woods. Ribs is at pains to reiterate that she does not visit the bathroom every 20 minutes. The pains are unrelated to her bathroom visitation schedule. * wedding admin If you like what you hear, you might want to check out our website (ribsanddill.com), follow us on Instagram (@ribsanddill) or join our Facebook group (facebook.com/groups/AndFinally/).
