Irreverent chat on a variety of topics. Misinformation will certainly ensue.
This week we are back to full strength to give you another dollop of WiHLE before our SCHEDULED summer break. But don't worry too much, we have a very unique treat for you next week so do come back to see what it is. In this episode we jam our big ol' heads together to plan how we might pull off a daring bank heist! Who would be the gritty getaway driver?, who would be the mysterious man-on-the-inside? Who would be the slinky safecracker? And if you're thinking we're just going to rip off the plot to Ocean's Eleven then, well, you're absolutely right… However, we decided to throw a few of our own clones into the mix to really complicate matters.
This week, due to the unauthorised absence of one Timothy ‘Turkey' Brewer, Sam and Jack have had to seriously scramble around to search high and low for some emergency content; in the attic, under the sofa cushions, behind the bed, in that mysteriously sticky nether zone between the handbrake and the plastic console that holds the handbrake… but by [insert deity here] they might just have pulled it off! Against all odds they have managed to find some premium content for all your earballs to feast on.
Another hellish parallel universe episode!!! How depressing and terrifying would it be to live on a planet where you are forced to exist with the constant and all-consuming fear that at any point in the year, for one day only, as soon as the clocks strike midnight gravity inverts itself and you wake up face-down on your ceiling, with all of your stuff smashed to bits around you - also on your ceiling. I bet you have a million questions right now, such as: What the fuck would happen to you if you were unfortunate enough to be outside when this happens? Well have a listen and find out! - Although, i'll give you a hint: it ain't good.
Imagine a world where the only way to live is to Rock and to Roll. Imagine what it felt like to be an old-school Rockstar. Imagine wearing a leotard and competing in athletic dance competitions - wait! what? This week the WiHLE boys discuss what it would mean to live on planet ‘Rock and Roll' [insert guitar riff here] as well as discovering our new favourite confederation; the infamous WRRC.

Back at ya with another half hour of nonsense - this week we take the humble vegetable and transform it into a horrific human sized beast. There is surely only one question which can then be asked, can you defeat it in hand to hand combat?If you've got some excellent themed drivel you think might make for interesting discussion, please by all means email us with it at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com!
Hello everyone, we're back after an accidental mid season break! The WiHLE boys have been on tour, to Amsterdam of all places and to mark the occasion we thought we'd record a good old three question special. Enjoy heated discussions about doors, wheels and Jack running half marathons.If you've got some juicy questions just burning a hole in your brain, feel free to email them to us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com
Damn, I shoulda never smoked that shit, now I'm in the Mos Eisley Cantina. In classic Tim form he throws the boys down a truly unsettling, reality-bending rabbit hole with his question. What would you do if you opened a random door to the Mos Eisley Cantina? Go in for a drink, or run away in existential terror? Do you know what would be a great idea? Emailing us at What If Humans Laid Eggs with some truly rAnDoM shit! Send your emails in to whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com. Go on, what are you waiting for? DO IT!
We are joined this week by a very special guest, a former TACK alumni, a certified friend-of-the-pod, the Bronze Bomber himself: Mr Sean McDonnell. He revives his role as Film Correspondent, and sets Jack on a tirade against a very peculiar film.Have you got anything overly specific and not particularly noteworthy you'd like us to discuss? Email us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com and we will discuss it!
This is a topic that is close to our hearts over here at WiHLE HQ, and we've decided that enough is enough; we must resolve this issue once and for all. How the heck do we tell future humans, long after we're dead, NOT to go near all of our old buried nuclear waste? Our solution may surprise you.Would you like us to discuss a random question on What If Humans Laid Eggs? Email us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com
This week the boys take a long overdue dip into the thousands of listener emails we receive every month. We've waded through all the hate mail and death threats to select three of the best emails to discuss on the show!If you'd like to email us some waffle, please send your emails to whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com
The boys are back for a second week in a row! what is this? Spring 2020? haha nah, it's just the boys having a good old time fulfilling the new WiHLE guarantee!

Season 2 of WiHLE has officially arrived! Back again with our usual waffle, but we are shaking things up with a new format and a renewed WiHLE guarantee: instead of one BIG WiHLE every 1-6 months, you're now going to have one - slightly shorter - WiHLE every week! So remember, anybody who says WiHLE size matters, is a damn dirty liar!Please send us episode suggestions, critiques and general life updates to whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com and we will discuss it on the podcast!
Oh crikey, look an announcement episode! What will we think of next? You'll just have to wait and find out...
Well aren't you lucky, two episodes of What If Humans Laid Eggs in one week! This one is a special edition containing selections of previous recordings which... usually due to excessive tangenting, didn't make the final cut.If you'd like to email us with any thoughts or observations on the show so far or to suggest your own topics for us to discuss, email away at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com !
The WiHLE boys are back with varying degrees of hangover in this edition and therefore varying degrees of coherence. First they discuss which part of their body would be best preserved, before meandering onto what question would you ask a person from the past. Finally, things are rounded up with an fashionably late dissection of the European 2020 football championships.Have opinions? Have eDgY tHoUgHtS on the way the world is? Want to hear us read out your drivel to be immortalised for all time? Then email us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com
WE WERE ON A BREAK! haha, that show Friends is so funny isn't it? But seriously, we're back from our early mid-year sabbatical to offer up some more quality content for y'all. We begin with a brand new segment (oooh what could it be??) before moving on to some classic WiHLE shenanigans. Contact us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.com, and maybe we'll answer YOUR WiHLE questions.
Happy birthday to us, Happy birthday to us, Happy birthday to WiHLE! Happy birthday to us! Well holy shit we've made it a whole year. A whole 365 days, clocking over 22 hours of pure unadulterated waffle. One complete orbit around the sun and many, MANY, ant miles travelled. Our little podcast turns one today! So as a little treat, here's a few famous people who we share our birthday with: Iggy Pop, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the weird looking guy from The Cure, James McAvoy, Charlotte Brontë and Tony Danza!
This month the WiHLE boys dive DEEP into the simulation argument. We talk about what makes a good story, and if all stories follow the same 6 basic structures. Then, for the proverbial cherry on top, Jack gives a comprehensive rundown of the first 1000 days of Mars colonisation. Contact us at whatifhumanslaideggs@gmail.co.uk, and maybe we'll answer YOUR WiHLE questions.First 10,000 days video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3hPH_bc0Ww
The WiHLE boys are back for a 20th episode with the usual roiling nonsense. First we take a deep dive into the past considering what inventions we'd made ahead of their alloted time, before "preminscing" about what the immediate future holds before taking the time to consider what might be better - space cowboys or space pirates?
Join Captain Sam, privateer Tim and deck-hand Jack as we return from an unintentional month long break with an adventure into the unknown!We discover the ant conspiracy you've all been worried about, discuss the horror of being able to remember all your memories from birth and imagine the terrifying world of giant insects. A world where keeping your curtains shut would be wise due to the man size moths flying about...Tangents and silliness abound in another epsiode from the WiHLE boys!
We are fucking back! The one-time ranked 16th best podcast (in the improv category, on Apple Podcasts, in the UK) is starting off the new year with a BANG! Well, not quite a bang, more like the deflated whimper of decomposition gases slowly being released from the bloated carcass of a dead camel. But we're gunna hit you with the future, we're gunna hit you with present and we're gunna hit you with the past. So start your year the right way with two earfuls of WiHLE.

This week the boys name their all-time human disaster XI, reminisce about the good ‘ol days at the University of Southampton, and asking each other about what we most want in this world.
In a dark, dark town there was a dark, dark street and in the dark, dark street there was a dark, dark house, and in the dark, dark house there were some dark, dark stairs and down the dark, dark stairs there was a dark, dark cellar and in the dark dark cellar…. Lived three more white guys with a podcast! In this special all hallow's eve spooktacular, the rapidly aging WiHLE boys recount tales of the paranormal and the high strange.
Back after our big old summer break to serve you up a slightly stale episode of that weird lockdown joke that has gone on for far too long. Sit down, shut up, put in your headphones (otherwise people will definitely look at you funny) and let your brain feast on some truly average to poor content. We got castles (fuck yeah!), we got musical instruments (praise the lord!) and we got ooky spooky stories of the macababbreee.
This week the boys are back discussing the potential future culture or Martians, testing Sam's loyalty to the rolling hills of wales, questioning the inner workings of chess, discussing the strangest things we've done in lockdown and worrying about Jacks scientific sock disposal scheme!
There is currently a group of absolutly crazy lads attempting to row around Great Britain, and one of them is Jack's brother! so we talk about this in classic WiHLE style by asking Jack stupid questions about boats. We then switch gears to contemplate the potential ramifications Ghislaine Maxwell's arrest will have on the world and also, the Royal Family. And finally, in a dream world where you could have your own museum, what would you put in it?Exe Endurow JustGiving Page: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/exe-endurow
In celebration of our 10th episode we haven't done a single thing differently. But seriously though, 10 episodes! that's fucking crazy! Anyway, enough about that. This week we talk Interstellar and how goddamn beautifully confusing it is. We also talk playing cards, and the history thereof. And to tie a neat little bow at the end of the episode Sam asks Jack and Tim how they would each fake their own death and also how they would cover up a muuurrrrddeerrrr.
What do movie remakes, extreme ironing, and alien conspiracy theories all have in common? absolutely nothing. But they do all appear in this episode of WiHLE. Special bonus chatterings include trouser watch and the fermi paradox! Get yourself stuck in.
We're back to our usual endearingly weird bullshit this week with some absolute corkers. Sam attempts to talk about the medium of radio which somehow meanders into a conversation about languages and the origin of Monopoly (The Fast-Dealing Property Trading Game). Jack decides to read a list of the names of Europe's top flight national football leagues which descends into some kind of sports related therapy session. And to finish off, Tim wants to know what life would be like if we all had lightbulbs protruding from the middle of our foreheads. Yes, that's right. Fucking lightbulbs.
Not the usual episode this week as we take the time to discuss the tragic murder of George Floyd and the subsequent protests that are taking place around the world. Here some links to places you should consider donating to:Black Lives Matter: https://blacklivesmatter.com NAACP legal defence and educational fund: https://www.naacpldf.org/support The Bail Project: https://bailproject.org Also consider listening to this BBC 1XTRA radio show for a UK perspective on racism: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000k3yt
Back at you with another episode of your least favourite podcast! Kicking things off with a hearty discussion on sitcoms (pause for laughter) But don't worry because that discussion seamlessly morphs into Tim explaining the physics behind Castells (pause for a pantomime “ooh”) and to wrap things up we take the time to discuss what would happen if everyone went blind and the world was taken over by big bloody flowers (pause for gasps)
What the bloody hell is a polymath? Tim will enlighten you with some very current examples of the sort. What the almighty fuck is going on with sports these days? Open up your brain and Sam will dump in some topical knowledge like an Italian builder pouring sand into a cement mixer. Who makes your dream dinner party XI? Living or alive, Jack would very much like to know.
Take one cup of Belarusian Premier League and mix liberally with a quarter cup of horrific deaths within the film industry, then season lightly with sugar and trousers. Crack a room temperature human egg into the mix and whisk it together violently until you have a cloneable ball of dough. Roll it out, cut it up, eat a bit, throw up in the sink, bake it for about an hour and voila!.. you have a brand new, piping hot episode of WiHLE.
This week, Sam, Tim, and Jack wrestle with trying to understand the Joe Exotic phenomenon, the IMCF (if you don't know what IMCF is you are in for a treat) and quite possibly one of the most in depth discussions about superpowers ever to take place.
Are you alone? Are you afraid? Did you type “what if humans laid eggs?” into Spotify thinking it was an internet search engine? It doesn't matter, you're here now and you're in safe hands. In this episode; Sam, Tim, and Jack take you on a journey of discovery through the annals of bizarre movie trivia, the crazy NHL, and a scintillating debate on what the world would be like if dinosaurs were still around today.
Want to hear all the scathing reviews of some of our favourite bad movies? or perhaps you'd rather a nice timely recap of the group stages of the 2006 FIFA World Cup? If these don't get you suitably fired up then surely you'd love to hear a discussion about the ill-fated Smell-O-Vision? All this, and less, in the inaugural episode of WiHLE.
