Before listening to AMT423, you have to do a couple of minutes of homework, which is to watch this video.

Then, proceed unto the episode, wherein we discuss:

whether the chicken really crossed the road as a morbid pun
Albert Einstein’s posthumous career as a spokesmodel
Tinkertown, Albuquerque
popcorn machines
Billina in Return to Oz vs bad chicken representation in media
dealing with wedding first dance fears
spice bag cocktails
porn star martinis
infinity pools
the Lautner Edge
dying in New Jersey
build-your-own castles ≠ BDE
the Nakatomi Plaza of the mind
and
a man incubating a duck egg in his underpants – seriously, watch the video.

Also, we must issue content warnings for some chat about hen death (and alcohol, and a blackface minstrel troupe).

Support AMT at patreon.com/answermethis, and in return you get an ad-free version of the show, monthly bonus bits, our video livestream Petty Problems – and the highest tier gets access to our ENTIRE back catalogue, including all our paywalled episodes, our special albums, the full archive of Bonus Bits of Crapp on the AMT App and all the Retro AMT episodes.

Answer Us Back: scab library

Hello! Welcome to this month’s edition of Answer Us Back, featuring your responses to and observations upon past episodes of AMT. Today:

Responding to AMT417’s collection of lost teeth, Dan from Sydney makes us wonder why there is a tooth fairy but no toenail fairy. Which body part would you choose to be the fairy of?
Max in New Jersey responds to AMT418’s question about Jersey Shore filming in bars, having worked at a bar while Jersey Shore filmed in it. Also, have a care in this pivot-to-video era for we audiomakers, who do not wanna be on camera.
Also responding to the Jersey Shore filming in bars with music question, Matt the dialogue editor chips in with his insider knowledge about the reality of music use and shooting dancing scenes. And Olly completely forgot that he too has insider knowledge, having himself been a dancing extra in a film!
Dale in Truckee, California heard the AMT416 question about what to do with the suit from one’s wedding after the marriage has ended, and has an engagement ring to deal with post-breakup.
And Rob in Durham has a question arising from maybe every AMT ever: did either of us ever try a career in stand-up comedy?

If AMTs 1-418 left you with lingering questions and opinions, share them with us for future episodes of Answer Us Back. And as always, send in your questions, in voicenote or written form, to answermethispodcast@googlemail.com. All new AMT419 will be in your podfeed 25 June 2026.
