EPISODE 365: Umami Caroline

September 6, 2018

It’s back to school season, but at AMT the edutainment is year-round. Get your learning on in Answer Me This! Episode 365, wherein we find out about:

Dyson hairdryers vs Duck’n’Dry
‘Sweet Caroline’ (ba ba BAAA)
shoutability
cubits
gopher wood
the List of Unusual Deaths
Bible minigolf
the replacement Avril Lavigne
vanilla pods vs beaver anuses
romance vs Dubai
and
playing Noah for the day.

In this month’s Bonus Bit of Crap on the App – available for iPadPhones, Android and Windows devices – listener Ben in Bolivia calls up suffering from altitude sickness. Luckily, there’s a cure! Just not a particularly useful cure when you’re stuck at high altitude. Hope you’re OK, Ben!

a life-sized cutout of Kylie Minogue.

In today’s Bonus Bit of Crap on the App – available for iPadPhones, Android and Windows devices – we continue our Beanchat, and learn about keeping deer out of your flowerbeds, deflating a swollen scrotum, and this predicament that Helen’s eyelid got itself into.
