Guardian columnist Tim Dowling has spent decades chronicling his marriage and family life for the Weekend magazine. His self-deprecating humour and determinedly cynical approach have made him hugely popular with readers. In this classic episode, Tim and Andrew discuss the layers that go into a joke. What exactly is it that we're doing when we laugh at ourselves and our own life? Humour can be about storytelling, making sense of the past, finding honesty and creating meaning. It can be a defence mechanism, and a form of self-protection for the intensely shy. Tim's readers have watched him move from the chaos of working and parenting younger children to a different stage of midlife. The column has changed, and so has everyone featured in it. Andrew and Tim discuss new hobbies, the relaxation that can come with being older, and the boundaries that need to go up when writing about family for so long.

On this week’s On Story we’re tracing the history of modern film comedies back to a singular movie celebrating it’s 40th anniversary. Grab your toga and your ‘college’ sweatshirt as comedy writers reflect on Animal House’s lasting influence. We’ll also hear from SNL alum and Adam Sandler collaborator Tim Herlihy, who used the National Lampoon movies as a model to write some of the biggest comedies of the 1990’s. 40 years ago National Lampoon’s Animal House changed American comedies and shaped people’s expectations of the college experience. The frat comedy was an instant success when in was released in 1978 and remains one of the most quotable films. Beverly Hills Cop writer Daniel Petrie, Jr and Role Models writer Tim Dowling explored Animal House’s lasting legacy at the 2015 Austin Film Festival in a conversation moderated by filmmaker Roy Rutngamlug. One direct influence that came from the National Lampoon’s continued collaboration was Tim Herlihy’s work with Adam Sandler. In the 1990’s, Herlihy co-wrote a string of successful films that launched Sandler into an unlikely leading man. Some of his writing credits include Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and The Wedding Singer. He conceived of most of those films while writing at Saturday Night Live. I spoke with Tim Herlihy at the 23rd annual Austin Film Festival in 2016. Clips of Animal House courtesy of Universal City Studios, Inc.

A full hour of pre-roll before our extended conversation (in the next episode) with Ian Samuel. Opening topics: Words, Joe's new paper, phones and their spam and locations. We argue about how to have an argument. Then we stumble into a psychological typology of judginess and prescriptivism. The heartland of the episode concerns the self, law, death, being and non-being, Joe's youthful fear of blindness, the external and internal point of view, the reality of firehouses, and law as a social practice for reaching acceptable social conclusions vs. law as a queryable thing.

Cheese science, cilantro phobia, and fork usage: we've covered it all on Gastropod. And, for our special end-of-year episode, we're bringing you updates on some our favorite stories. Join us to find out what happened next… Ever wondered what happened to those researchers in Colombia who discovered they could grow five times more food by adding specially-bred microbes to the soil? Or what's new in cheese microbiology? This is your chance to find out! To celebrate the end of 2015, we've created a tasting menu to update past episodes. Listen in for news from the front lines of fork etiquette and for the science behind Camembert's color change from minty-green to today's white rind. We've also included your stories of successful cilantro conversion techniques as well as your suggestions for state dishes—including plenty that we'd never even heard of, from Benedictine sandwiches to Cincinnati chili. There's even a mezcal-tasting party featuring Cynthia's mom. And, as we share a toast and head into 2016, we'd love to hear from you. Do you have a question about some aspect of food history or science? Ever wondered why tonka beans are banned in the United States, despite being a popular spice in much of the rest of the world? Maybe your teeth feel weird after eating spinach, and you want to know why—and whether anyone else has the same reaction? Or perhaps you're curious about how tomatoes, which don't seem as if they should store particularly well for long boat-rides, succeeded in making the leap from the Americas to become a staple in European cuisine? Send us an email or a voice memo, or leave us a message at +1 310.876.2427, and we'll see what we can do! Finally, a huge thanks to you, our listeners, for a great year.

For this episode, we spoke to Guardian columnist Tim Dowling about the shocking findings from a new survey on British fork usage.The Microbe Revolution Back in November 2014, we spoke with scientists Ian Sanders and Alia Rodriguez about their successful field trials, in which they found that coating cassava roots in a gel containing specially bred mycorrhizal fungi increased the final harvest by up to five times. Has this promising new technology made it out of Colombia yet? Listen in to find out.Say Cheese! Microbiologist Ben Wolfe starred in our Say Cheese! episode, all about the history and science of cheese. We went back to visit him in his lab at Tufts University to uncover the mystery of the mutant Camembert mold and learn the latest on cheese rind fungal superhighways.The Good, the Bad, the Cilantro Lots of you shared your stories in response to Cynthia's attempt at cilantro conversion therapy using the pesto method in this episode: thanks for giving us hope that she'll be able to enjoy a proper guacamole one day!The Mushroom Underground Fungi are fascinating, and our mushroom episode only touched the tip of the mycelial matrix. Here's an extra tidbit we couldn't squeeze in to the original episode: a project by Dr. Robyn Hudson of the National Autonomous University of Mexico to track male and female mushroom foragers using GPS. Listen in to learn how her findings have led to an improved diagnostic tool for ADHD in children. The post End-Of-Year Feast appeared first on Gastropod.

Tim Dowling fell into journalism by mistake; he is not an ambitious man, never was, never will be, but he's fascinated by what it means to be desperately driven to succeed. He talks to those who have ambition searing through their veins. Today he meets Saira Khan, business woman and runner-up in the tv show The Apprentice, who claims to have been ambitious since she was a small child. Growing up in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, the oldest of four children of Pakistani immigrants, she set her heart on doing better than her parents, having financial security and learning the confidence to do whatever she wanted. Starting out as a town planner, she found her natural place in the sales team of a biscuit manufacturer. Since her appearance on 'The Apprentice', she went on to run her own business, and is now also a TV presenter and motivational speaker. Saira's also a mother. She talks candidly about wishing not to be a pushy parent and about her need to curb her ambitious streak where her children are concerned. Saira and Tim discuss the merits and drawbacks of ambition: does it lead to happiness and fulfilment or a never-ending nagging discontent and anxiety? Producer: Lucy Lunt.
Tim Dowling fell into journalism by mistake; he is not an ambitious man, never was, never will be, but he's fascinated by what it means to be desperately driven to succeed. In his two editions of One to One, he talks to those who have ambition searing through their veins. Today he meets fellow journalist and author, David Thomas. Once the UK's Young Journalist of the Year and the youngest-ever editor of Punch, David believes his Eton/Cambridge education made him feel obliged to succeed. Both now in their fifties, they discuss the merits and drawbacks of ambition: does it lead to happiness and fulfilment or a never-ending nagging discontent and anxiety? Producer: Lucy Lunt.

We dug a little deeper (as in the drawer below the Mini DV Drawer). We found two Yeah Right! tapes. One filmed by Tim Dowling. And that's how these things are going to go, if they're going to go at all. Short and weird. Featuring Mike Carroll, Scott Johnston, Tony Ferguson, Robbie McKinely, Stevie William and Richard Mulder.
