If your neighbours want to set up a catering business but you don’t want them to waste their money because think their food is sludge, can you stop them? Should you stop them? We face this question along with other matters, including:
taking butter from a cafe
Popes learning Italian
Danish wedding traditions
morning suits
“pip… pip… pip… pip… pip… piiiiippppp” on the radio
“young, dumb and full of cum” in Point Break
David Bowie emerging from a church wall
and
dropping your phone into a toilet at a festival.
Become a patron at patreon.com/answermethis to help with the continuing existence of AMT, and to get an ad-free version of the episode, plus bonus cuts from the show, AND you get our new Entertainment Experience: Petty Problems, a live YouTube version of the show where we are only answering questions that are trivial, unserious, minor. And the best part is, because it’s live, and you can hang out in the sidebar chat, you can weigh in on the problems in real time – and if it’s your Petty Problem, give us instant feedback. It’s going to be fun! The first edition will be 10pm UK time on Sunday 15th June, so go go go to patreon.com/answermethis to sign up so you can attend, and pose us a petty problem.
Got questions for us? Send them in writing or voice note to [email protected] – remember to include the formula “Helen and/or Olly, answer me this”, and let us know a name (pseudonyms are fine) and pronouns to use for you.
Next episode will land in your podfeed 26 June 2025.
