Today’s questioneers face ruin: browser history ruining a surprise; other people ruining the choice of baby names; and ruining your own chances of shagging a houseguest. Don’t ruin your own life by failing to listen to Answer Me This! Episode 325 , in which we also discuss:
circus music
baby names
the Stocks app
Apple Maps vs Google Maps
James Cameron vs bladder control
Martin’s eggy Instagram
deep sea submersibles
Greenpeace up the Shard
sleeping arrangements
and
Tom from MySpace .
Plus: Olly would like you to listen to him present the Guardian’s Tech Weekly and The Media Podcast ; Helen is currently releasing new doses of The Allusionist EVERY WEEK; and Tom Waits fans should sprint to hear Martin the Sound Man’s Song By Song podcast (and there’s a Heart Of Saturday Night listening party in the heart of this coming Saturday night, or at least evening, so do join).
In today’s Bonus Bit of Crap on the App – available for iThings , Android and Windows devices – we reveal the moral cesspit at the heart of that classic Martin Clunes film Staggered .
Open your moral cesspit hearts to us by sending us your questions! Leave voicemails on the Question Line – call 0208 123 5877 or Skype ID answermethis – and deliver your emails to answermethispodcast@googlemail.com . Befriend us online at facebook.com/answermethis and twitter.com/HelenAndOlly .
We’ll return on 29th October 2015 with AMT326.
