Aye up, like. It's us! Doing this! This week we discuss taking snuff, revisit the topic of how much personal responsibility should be considered compared to systemic forces, how Cat would shame a man on a train, and how Guy tried to stop someone from working in the arms industry. We also discuss Guy's recent Revelation, which genuinely shocked Cat's little socks off.

Yabba dabba doo, Garfarinos, today's epi- Nope.
This week, Guy and Cat talk about Returning to LARP, invent a new category for strongman competitions, and discuss what karate can teach you with regards to understanding yourself and your response to the world around you. There's also a comic about a cat, but it's not much tbh.

Ohh yeah. Cat's been playing Sonic the Hedgehog! Guy's been wondering how he can internalise a sense of joy! Yuna has been attacking The Baron Harkonnen! Garfield has been, and will continue to be. On this episode: Failure, Is sucess the expected, neutral outcome?, What's it like watching someone play a Sonic as what has not played a Sonic before?
All these questions! And more!

Oh yeah. There's been FLU. Australian Business. Painters. Sausages. Guy getting fully murdered by a tradesman. Ell of it. Hence the delay! But here's a summary of all that!
In this episode, as well as the above, Yuna steals an item, clown nudes are discussed, and Yuna does other terrible cat things because she is a hairy little criminal.
And, shockingly, Guy thinks a Garfield comic is "quite funny".

Hello! What do YOU think a cardboard biscuit is? Do you rem,ember those chocolate biscuit dome foods with beasts on them? What's it like living with someone with chronic pain and terrible health anxiety? What has Guy bought now?!
As per, this one is full of nosense in the first half hour or so, before dipping into a broader conversation about our various struggles, and the often overlooked struggles of those living with those struggling.
Also, we invent a new kind of Garfield meme. Watch this space.

Wahoo! It's a me! Garfield! We're back and OH BOY we are having Big Talks today. A zoo is visited in the rain, Alan Moore is visited in a dream (where a revelation about the nature of hope is freely given), karate is attempted, a misunderstanding over toast becomes a series of musings on the nature of communication and upset, and Guy drops a big rotten guff in the car. Oh yeah. Also Garfield maybe kills a man.

Gosh it's been a minute, hasn't it? Hello! We're back! After some quite severe depression, a couple of colds, and getting a desk, your favourite Garfield podcast hosts* have returned, and we're here to talk about a comic. And landlord. And autism. And queuing. and fireworks.
Huzzah.

Oh yeah. Here we go. This one is, quite frankly, a classic of the genre. We discuss the German Jaeger "Oompah Welcome", comission a drawing of the same live on air, talk about medical silencing and the time Guy sneezed out a filling, explore the notions of what constitutes art with regards to frozen hotdog water, and briefly discuss magical thinking as an avenue for recovering from religious trauma. Basically, it's exactly what you would expect to hear if someone said to you "hey, listen to this hour-long Garfield podcast".

Oh blimey it has been a WHILE. A variety of great stresses and illnesses has befallen the IDLM household, and yet, we persist. So we are BACK, and we are talking about: Bedroom Slugs; Wedding Japes; Surprise Corona Virus; Garfield.
Slightly shorter episode than normal, but still absolutely packed with ripe nonsense.

As you might be able to tell, one of us really enjoyed this strip.
Today we talk about a summer fair, splat the rat, what looked like a penis, discuss the concept of encouragement once again, and imagine a world where we make a podcast about Peanuts and/or Achewood, two comics that it is actually possible to like. Also, Guy burns his bum off on a scotch bonnet. Then there's Garfield. Great.

Good LORD. 100 episodes. I genuinely cannot believe it. To mark this special occasion, we have an extended disagreement over the word "should" in a hypothetical situation where a Da Vinci Code-level secret is revealed, and King Prince Charles may have to step down.
We reminisce over a violence ape, argue the toss about cheesecake, and consider the importance once again of telling right wing candidates where to shove it. Then there's a comic about a cat. Super.
Thanks for coming with us on this journey! 100 episodes! Here's to many, many more :)

Good lord. Nearly a hundred. Can you imagine? You can't? Good! You don't have to!
There's been a bit of a delay (bronchitis, terrible, screaming depression), but now we're back and with absolutely no drop in professionalism or quality. Wonderful stuff. We talk about rollercoasters (again), Yuna is naughty (again) and mental health is discussed (also again). It's practically a clip show, it what it is. Catherine also demands I play telephones with her, and we play a brief round of "What's three times seven?" - the answer might surprise you!
Content note: suicide ideation is mentioned, and there is a discussion about very unhelpful experiences with doctors.

Cor, a sequel! But to an episode! Not a strip! What a thrill!
This week: Cat has hayfever, the death of the author is discussed, we have some thoughts about Street Fighter, and wonder why a giraffe is on a boob. We also actually disagree over the contents of a Garfield comic! Is Cat correct? Or is Guy gright? Let us know! We also talk about LARP, emotional reslilance, and, once more, media literacy. A Garfield podcast! Is what this is!

Ahahahahahah this episode is over two hours long ahahahahaa oh no.
Today's Garfstravaganza* is an inadvertent bumper episode! We talk about, in no specific order, Mad Max, cleaning the kitchen, experiencing America as a giant theme park, therapy, and dental work. Plus rejection sensitivity and the agonising horror of asking to be paid for creative endeavours. Then we talk about Garfield. But also that bit is broken up by further digressions.
Basically this one goes all round the houses. You're welcome.
*Nope. We've talked about this, Guy

Ahh yeah, it's time for another delightful glorp of sounds directly from our mouths to your ears. Give them a wash, yeah? You could grow potatoes in that.
In this week's episode, we have an extended discussion of analogue horror, forteana, and the underwhelming experience of considering a bigfoot. We think about the ghosts that live in telephone networks, consider the unexpected lack of importance The Bermuda Triangle plays in our lives, and Cat decides to get really into Warhammer 40k. Also there is a Garfield. We're sorry about that.

Oh by heck it's been a while! Once again, Guy has been Extremely Depressed, which makes talking about Garfield practically impossible! But! Things have improved! As they can and do! So here we are!
This episode covers: Telling people canvassing for Tory MPs that they should be ashamed of themselves! Advertising as a blight on the landscape! Rollercoasters! Appreciating the small successes in life! Garfield! Oh no!
Also, as much as it pains me to say this: Dammit, Cat was right.

Much like cross-country snooker, it's been a long break, but here we are! We've battled depression and terrible NHS waiting times, and emerged only slightly scathed, and ready to hoot noise into your earholes for almost an hjour and a half. Hooray!
This week: Rollercoasters, fear of heights, a birthday, freeze-dried hotdogs, and a cat as what doesn't like summer. Podcast!

Ohhhhhh yeah. Are YOU the king of the swingers? Good for you. None of my business.
In this episode we discuss passive-aggressive Bop-Its, enjoy a round of American Thesaurus Quiz, Cat attempts a cryptic crossword clue, and, finally, Guy and Cat land upon a potentially life-changing discovery.
NOW. Here's a thing. When you're exactly 56 minutes in, pause the podcast, have a think, and guess what the next ~15 minutes of discussion will be. Tweet us @IDLMPodcast with your guesses. No prizes, of course, but I'm interested to see if anyone gets close. Then we talk about Garfield. Begrudgingly.

Aye up, me ducks. It's another episode of everyone's favourite Garfield podcast! This issue we relitigate cheesemouth, once again call for siezing the means of production, and enjoy an extended digression regarding Guy's lived experience as a deep-sea fisherman. Then, in a shocking turn of events, we discuss a Garfield comic of load-bearing canonical importance.
