Send us a textThis week, Ross and Simon are joined by the beautifully unfiltered Mike Batho from The Reclining Pair Podcast  to wrestle with a hypothetical that could ruin friendships, family dinners, and job interviews alike.The choice is simple: Total Silence or Total Transparency.No filters. No secrets. Just raw, unedited brain nonsense 24/7.Or total silence forever—where your only way to say “I love you” is blinking in Morse code. Together, the trio navigate uncomfortable truths, horrifyingly fecal overshares, and what happens when your inner monologue becomes your outer one. Mike Batho - Reclining Pair PodcastReclining Pair Linktree: https://linktr.ee/recliningpairBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/recliningpair.bsky.socialWho Takes the Socks Off is now a part of the Channel 84 Podcast Network Family!Click here for more informationSupport the showHelp the Socks!

Send us a textBees!Bringers of life and pollination.Fuzzy cousin of the hateful-sting-bastard and all-round busy little Apis!But do they actually possess the idiomatic knees that are so often bandied about to convey brilliance? Are these “bee's knees” a real anatomical feature, or just another bizarre phrase humans have cooked up during a sugar crash?Join Ross, Simon, and returning guest Sunjai Arif as they dive wings-first into the sticky world of bee anatomy, idiomatic nonsense, and other oddities. Along the way, they ask the big questions:What makes a knee… a knee?Were the 1920's just one big hooch-fest?And why do so many English expressions sound like the fever dreams of a Victorian entomologist?Expect buzzing banter, the return of Sunjai's hilarious anecdotes, and more insect-based confusion than a wasp at a picnic. It's weird, it's wonderful, and it might just leave you wondering what other body parts we've unfairly attributed to animals.How Obsessed Are You PodcastPodcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/6eehHHedSnzXGYckjy80CsSunjai on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sanjsmash/Sunjai on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@SanjSmashBuzzBeard Advert Background Music & Effects by freesound_communityWho Takes the Socks Off is now a part of the Channel 84 Podcast Network Family!Click here for more informationSupport the showHelp the Socks!

In this episode Charlie interviews Luke from Luke's English Podcast and as Luke is not only an ESL teacher but also a comedian, Charlie asked him to describe the journey a comedian takes to become a successful comic in the UK. Luke highlights an important difference between British comedy and British humour. We also squeeze a juicy story out of him during his rock 'n' roll days and he even shares a moment when he was dying on his arse on stage as a comedian. Luke has a delightful way with his words so get ready to learn a lot of intermediate to advanced vocabulary and expressions. I created 100+ flashcards for this episode in The Academy.

We talk to British comedian and actor Matt Green. He explains how his viral pandemic comedy videos came about, we compare British and American comedic styles and he talks about 'audience deterioration' and how it is likely going to be worse after the pandemic.He talks about performing comedy over zoom, how to try and avoid offending people and using his wife's zoom calls as inspiration for some of his workplace comedy.Matt explains how he has asked for money during the pandemic despite being British, why best man speeches at comedians' weddings are always tricky and how having 'comedy' in his twitter handle has avoided people misunderstanding his work.A funny and insightful episode about British humor and how it differs from America.
