I Don't Like Mondays
An idiot podcast, by two idiots, about two idiots. The ONLY unwritten, unedited, and unprepared husband & wife Garfield review podcast that ANYONE needs.

Episode 124: Back once again with our mentally ill behaviour
GOODNESS it's been a while, hasn't it? Months! Unless you're catching up on this at some point in the future, in which case no time has passed at all, but I think it's obvious that we're not talking to you, here. Welcome in, though. We hope you stick around.
In today's episode, chronic pain is discussed, modern mimics are litigated, best bugs are decided, and Guy runs through the house yelling a
Episode 123: A touching melodrama where Godzilla bites a train
Pibbly pobbles, poderinos. Today, Guy has broken a camera, Cat is in The Pit, asshole fae stole Guy's voice, and Godzilla had a bit of a yamp about the place.
Content note for the beginning and the end of this episode - the strip itself is a bit, you know, suicide-y. Classic Garfield, you zany pusscat!

Episode 122: He bums poison swamps
Yabba-Dabba-Garfield, listenerinos, here we are again with another delicious bite of the podcast pie.
Today we talk at length about Cat's tentative first steps in Having ADHD, as well as her experience taking medication for it for the first time. We talk a lot about the malevolent universe, the betrayal of trying to do something, and Guy's Litany Against Wives.
Also, content warning for suicide.
Episode 121: Where we rise from the ashes, weirder than previously thought possible
Let's be honest, it's been a while, hasn't it? Basically a series of mental collapses and surprising diagnoses have meant that both of us have effectively been large, floppy lumps over the winter period.
However: things have improved! Mainly because Guy bought a milk-frother and now we can have hot chocolate practically on tap.
Oh, also, Cat had a life-changing diagnosis of the brain (lol welcom
Episode 120: Dealing with leaflets, kittens, and sherbert
doing?
This week, we discuss how to deal with The Fash, what a good sherbert is, strike ettiquette, and the terrifyingly American concept of Pixar's Cars. Also a Garfield that, for some reason, breaks through Cat's steely exterior and causes genuine psychic agony. THAT'S PODCASTING, HECTOR!

Episode 119: Where Did That Bowling Ball Come From?
Aye up, you lot. We've been, once again, busy and ill in equal measure, but now we're back and firing on at least one cylinder and ready to talk about that big old ball of cat: Penn & Teller.
This episode, a kitten climbs on both Guy and Cat, wizards have been witnessed, tattoos have been had, Guy made a game, and we discuss the concept of internal validation, rather than being a constant void of
Episode 118: A Wasp Knows No Fear
New Episode, new you. Possibly the same you. Or maybe there IS something different about you. Have you done your hair? It looks great!
Today, Guy and Cat discuss which McDonald's creature we could take in a fight, Guy definitely doesn't encourage you to steal contruction machinery, and a tank gets chronoshifted into the ocean. Garfield!

Episode 117: Put your phone down, stop plucking nostril hairs, and engage
Lovely stuff, this podcasting lark. This week, Guy and Cat talk about Garfield through the ages, nervous animals, and postmodern discourse. Also there's Garfield, and a whippet asks you to listen.

Episode 116: Unreasonable Adjustments
It's been a minute since we last spoke! Well, what have you missed? Let's see...Guy and Cat have a new cat, Guy has a new autism, and Cat has the limits of her patience tested by her delightful husband who is always a joy to be around. Also, a comic.

Episode 115: How To Answer "Would You Like The Door Open Or Closed?"
Well this is a whizz-bang spectacular. Cat has a bit of heat exhaustion, Yuna the cat goes all floppity, there is an EXTENDED discussion on how to answer a simple yes or no question (spoiler warning: autism), spooky tales are discussed, and we briefly (like a cheese's brie) rank bagged supermarket cheeses. Plus, Cat reads a short story from a book of spooky tales! COR!!
Also Garfield. Eugh.

Episode 114: Less Whimsy, More Toilet Ghosts
Oh no. This episode has done got a big wee in it. Err.
Today, we talk about a second go at making pizza, further analyse Guy's fear of failure, Guy flounces out of a shop, a shoe falls apart at a theme park, toilet ghosts are discussed, and Quentin Tarantino is indirectly called out. Plus, wer review the strip and do the patreon plug about three quarters of the way through for some reason. What a
Episode 113: The Kinetic Consequences of Garfield's Movement Have Yet To Be Realised
Over two hours! Gosh we treat you right.
In this episode, we discuss a karate grading, doing your best in difficult circumstances, the most disreputable creature Catherine has ever met, and then have a conversation about cooking pizza that lasts an hour and a half, and explores neurodivergence and the effects of the same in new and unexpected ways. A Smooth Ronald is mentioned, and Garfield is re
Episode 112: Duck crimes and pigeon times
Hooray! Hooray! An episode of a podcast! Hooray!
Today, we talk about rollercoasters, duck crimes, one-man bands, pigeon situations, and more! That's what you want from a Garfield podcast, and don't you forget it!

Episode 111: Which Guy thinks is episode 112 throughout
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.

Oh GOSH there is Garfield-related news that has SHAKEN US TO THE CORE! How can the podcast survive?! Listen...and find out!
Also, Cat is rejuvinated by a glass of water, Guy has a challenging interaction with a baffled delivery driver, and Guy asks a question that should never be answered...

Episode 109: A brand new way to demonstrate your strength
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.

Episode 108: The Speed of The Blue Rat
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!
October 04, 1978
Episode 107: Your toy's fallen over
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 fun
Episode 106: A Replica Cardboard Box
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 strugg
Episode 105: Guffs, karate, and the bumper book of magic
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
Episode 104: After a hiatus, some nonsense
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.

Episode 103: What kind of theology is this???
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 traum
Episode 102: We're back, and we're still thrilled about the Garfield cat
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.

September 28, 1978
Episode 101: The Lifeless Corpse of Jokes
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.
Sept
Episode 100: The Great Cheesecake Disagreement
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 candi
Episode 99, if you can believe such a thing
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 i
Episode 98: What If A Cat Do What A Dog Do? Part 2
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 litera
Episode 97: The Emotional Inconvenience of Walking Under A Pickle
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
Episode 96: Analogue Horror and Little Shooty Mans
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 importanc
Episode 95: A Sincere Call To Bring Back Public Shaming
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
Episode 94: That line that follows Garfield in the second panel indicates flatulence.
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!

Episode 93: In which Guy and Cat make a decision
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
Episode 92: A Day In The Life Of A Deep-Sea Fisherman
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.

Episode 91: Cholera Pump Rump Chumps
Episode 91! Can you even imagine?! I don't need to, because I LIVED it. And you can too! Vicariously! With a dog collar and everything!
In this episode we explore the logistsics of a new office cleaning venture, Yuna the Kitten appears and purrs into the microphone, hotdog water wine is considered, and a Garfield is taken to a vet. Podcasts, baby, AWOOOOO (wolf howl)

Episode 90: Is being a Dracula a protected characteristic?
We have faced parents, food poisoning, and a trip to Sheen, and we've lived to tell the tale. It's another episode of a very sensible Garfield podcast, and once again we urge our listeners to sieze the means of prodction, workshop how to use a Frankenstein in order to run an insurance scam, and very briefly lament the death of the inventor of poptarts. Then, with the grim inevitability of spilling
Episode 89: Which We Incorrectly Call Episode 88 Throughout
Rowing? Solved it. Sports encouragement? Done. Chimpanzee bus conductors? Don't even worry about it, we've got it covered. Well. Obviously DO worry if there is a chimpanzee bus conductor, that would be terrible, I mean "don't even worry about it" in a "we're discussing it so you dont't have to" kind of way. We also talk about Guy's terrible underwear, going "phwoar" at a gladiator, and, eventually
Episode 88: My Anxiety Tulpa Is a Health and Safety Demon
Two months! Nearly two months! Hello beloved listeners, we're back! We've fought illness, dissertations, another illness, a Christmas, Wales, and Getting a Kitten, and we've lived to tell the tale!
That's right. It's time for another hour-long, in-depth Garfield review podcast episode! In this week's episode we talk about cars (not like that), cats (like that), anxiety, paganism, and, briefly, ca
Episode 87
Ahh yeah, that's right; it's podcast time, you funky hunkers. In today's Garfield review podcast, we discuss the dissapointing lore-first approach of Ghostbusters Afterlife, the fundamental goodness of humanity, and explore a deep-dive of a horse. Also there's a cat that likes lasagna - can you even imagine such a thing???

Episode 86: The LARP harp tarp parp
Oh goodness it has been a while, hasn't it? Hello folks! We're back on our bullshit after a couple of months of repeated breakdowns and generally bad body and brain times. Sozcopters. Still, we're here now.
In this episode we rank Christmas treats, Guy gets raked over the coals for Being Weird, and Cat starts her Transformers youtube channel.
Quick content note: we do talk about losing a pet at
Episode 85: The Wotsit Consequences
Recording half an episode then another episode straight after? What madness is this? THIS madness is what this is! Today we talk about the logistical difficulties of making a Wotsit from scratch, Catherine develops a tshirt idea, and we discuss the benefits of being a stubborn git in the face of attempted social engineering. We also talk about siezing the means of production slightly more than you
Episode 84: A long and extended break, followed by sheer fury
Well this is a strange one. A big old chat about neurodivergence (quelle surprise) interrupted by a "short break" because Cat had a meeting to attend. Then...SEVERAL DAYS PASS. We completely lose our line of thought (of course) and Cat is incandescent with rage at the comments because we recorded the rest before she'd had breakfast. Also, at the very end, there is a Grundle Moment (TM). My GOD we
Episode 83: A Significant and Robust Discussion Entirely Unrelated to Garfield
Ahh yeah. This week we talk about Bad Bowel Movements, Cryptic Crossword classes, divining meaning from a text, and then have an extended discussion about where personal responsibility falls in a world where The Algorithm is so powerful. We also take a SUDDEN BREAK about 50 minutes in, then return and argue for a solid 45 minutes about when and how one should expect active critical thinking from t
Episode 82: Up Against The Lasagna Countdown
Here we go again! An episode of a Garfield review podcast. This week's comic is actually about a third charming, which makes a delightful change.
In this episode we discuss mushroom favourites, Guy briefly does an impression of Ancient Greek warriors (not a good one), and yet more Neurodivergence Chat. Ticking ALL the boxes you'd expect from a Garfield podcast. PLUS, we read out a listener's lette
Episode 81: The Mystery of the Fire Station Trousers
Oh yeah, it's this again. Your weekly dose of HIGH CULTURE and ROBUST THINKS. In this episode, Guy does a pitch-perfect impression of Immortan Joe, a game of charades is played, and Cat and Guy discuss whether trousers can be found near fire engines, and whether using the pole really is more efficient than just walking to a room. Spoiler warning: It definitely is.
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield
Episode 80: The Implicit Wrongness of the Vertical Corncob.
In which we discuss the worst foods to eat as if they were an ice-cream, Guy tells us his experience of being on the picket lines for the first time, Consequences are explored, and Cat can't quite work out why Guy doesn't want to watch her fight a stranger. There's also a Garfield comic, which we actually rather enjoy.

Episode 79: Finally, A Diarrhoea Relief For Draculas
We did it! We recorded an episode! Oh boy it's been a hot minute, but we're now PRIMED AND READY to avoid talking about Garfield for upwards of an hour! In this episode we discuss theme parks, how to do a good Igor voice, and spend a surprising amount of time workshopping a commercial for bum medicine for Draculas.

Oh it's been a while! Hello! Here we are again, this time with added audio issues! I very much hope this sounds tolerable, and we do welcome your feedback, but the thing is, my microphone went Bonk so we're kinda winging it at the minute. Anyway. In this episode, Guy comes out of the gate at full speed, much to Catherine's chagrin, we discuss the strange expectations of boomer p
Episode 77: Clown school part 2
September 03, 1978, https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/09/03
Do we need to end the podcast now? Guy and Cat have more clown school thoughts, Guy's "unique" sense of humour is shown to fail in real time, and a warm cat cosplays as his owner. If you want a Garfield podcast that's significantly more about clown school than Garfield, you've some to the right place.
Episode 76: Clown school, part 1
September 02, 1978.
Guy has spent a week undergoing one of the most psychologically-draining experiences of his life and so, in this episode, we talk about it a bit. Can Catherine consider the concept of a "well-respected" clown without bursting out laughing? How do you learn to fail when you've avoided it your entire life? Where are the weighing scales? All these questions and more are explored i

https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/09/01
Episode 75! We're into a whole new month! September! And what joys await us? An absolute nothing of a strip, is what.
This episode is a review of Altron Towers, further thoughts on clown school, and what is basically an extended therapy session as Guy confesses that he fakes his screams on rollercoasters. You know. Stuff you'd usually
Episode 74: At what point does a crisp become a situation?
August 31, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/31
Episode 74! The return of Poomp! That's what we should have called it tbh. We discuss crisps and the sizes thereof, the difficulty in sharing something you love with someONE you love, and Guy briefly realises that he might be producing a listenable podcast with his wife. Imagine.
Also, yes, Guy does call it episode 75 at the end. Don't w
Episode 73: The Chegwin Mystery Tube
August 30, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/30
Oh good. Another Garfield comic about being on a diet. At least Sisyphus got to look at a cool rock.
In this episode we discuss LARP snowball fights, design our dream motorway service station, and Guy attempts to ingratiate himself with an ironmonger.
Episode 72 - Judgement Day
August 29, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/29
Here we go! This episode skates around diet talk briefly, because it's Garfield, and so occasionally the comic is predictably "the cat is large and I wish him less so", so if that's not your cup of tea, the first and last five minutes or so can be skipped, I reckon. Like, we don't go into detail or anything, but it's good to flag these t
Episode 71: Oh I Don't Know
August 28, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/28
Guy's changing room misadventures, Dark Souls circus art, and bird ranking. In this episode, Guy and Cat are once again weirdly into a drawing of Garfield. This is not a pattern that bodes well. Also we talk about this episode of TechMoan, which is worth a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zqzrm_4_B94
Episode 70: A Terrible Thing Is Witnessed
August 27, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/27
We actually took two goes at this, because we started the first one off discussing A Dread Aspect of the comic and it dealt such intense psychic damage that we had to bin off 20 minutes of hot nonsense and start again after a stretch and a cup of tea. In this episode of the Garfield review podcast, Cat interviews a fishman, we ruminate o
Episode 69: NICE, WE SAY, DON'T WE? WE SAY NICE
August 26, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/26
Merry sexnumber, everybody. It's the 69th episode of the show, and as a result things get PRETTY HOT AND HEAVY. Well. They don't, really. Though we do talk about woodland pornography, enhancing jazz mags with some nice facts about nature, and hiding a scotch egg amongst a dried flower arrangement, if any of those happen to get you going.
Episode 68: It’s pretty standard cat science.
August 25, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/25
Cor there's a lot going on in this one. Crawdad boils, valuing one's art, using fine motor control to twitch your butthole for sculpting purposes. You name it. And that's before we even get to the mysteriously beguiling Garfield that absolutely captures Guy's attention.
Named wossnames/mentioned things of note:
BLIT / Langford's Basilisk

https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/24
How would YOU trick Alan Sugar? Were the dinosaur bones actual bones? What if YOUR bones glowed in the dark? Has Allo Allo permanently damaged this country's psyche? Why did Guy need a folder for his X-Factor magazine? All of these questions and more are answered in this perfectly reasonable Garfield podcast.

We're back! The first episode of the new year! A discussion on chocolates rapidly becomes an exploration of societal conventions and neurodivergence (to no one's surprise), Guy risks cancellation by asking Cat to say "let me finish" slightly differently, traditional 70s muffs are briefly touched upon (ooh err), and audience feedback is

Once again, two people who really should no better sit on opposite sides of a microphone and let sounds tumble out until nothing is left. This episode covers the poor programming choices displayed in the discordant pairing of Fraiser and Bulldog's radio shows, Catherine's deep-seated fear of bells, and an extended discussion as to whethe
Episode 63: In Which We Attempt To Annoy Our Every Listener
August 20, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/20
What is the best goose? Where does Cat's dad work and what is his job? (it's not what you think!) Who has opinions, should they have them, and how do we determine the difference? Additionally, Cat aims to annoy every nerd listening with her Cake Is A Lie Reckon. Finally, a Cat is discussed, and Guy frantically attempts to end the podcast
Episode 62: Can A Babybel Go Backwards?
August 19, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/19
Once more into the garfield, folks. Once more. 62 episodes! That's a silly amount! And the cat STILL dislikes the dog! The worst thing is, one of us rather likes this strip. Is it actually any good, or have we just been ground down? Also, what was our wedding like, do cheeses posess rotational symmetry, and what would happen if you showe
Episode 61: The Cat Still Dislikes The Dog And We Are So Very Tired
August 18, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/18
Oh Garfield, you naughty cat. You don't like the dog and so you tried to put a murder on him with a big bone.
This week we talk about Uri Geller, why Cat would be a terrible magician's assistant, and where ghosts come from, we reckon. Guy also briefly gets some ointment out of a tube and puts it in his pocket. For later.
Episode 60: One Of Them Sounded Very Bummy, Which I Appreciated
August 17, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/17
Episode 60! Six-tee! That's so many! Good grief! To celebrate the occasion, there is some Intermittent Drilling, though luckily it doesn't sound too bad. Today we talk about tropical holidays, the anxieties of trying to speak a foreign language, The Bin Men, what Guy's dad meant by "Venice", and the difficulties of living with a partner

August 16, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/16
Episode 59 is here! We talk about satire, integrity, and how different the olympic hurdles would be if every athlete had a remote-controlled buttplug up in them that was controlled by one of the opposing teams. You know, like you would expect from a Garfield podcast?

Some slime toy digressions, Guy's tragic realisation that he wouldn't be that much use at a sex party, more of the inevitable neurotypical v neurodivergent chat, Sondheim slander, new microphone settings, and a Garfield strip that Catherine genuinely hates. This truly is the podcast that has it all*
Episode 57: Wherein Guy Thinks About Starscream So Much He Breaks The Podcast
August 14, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/14
As I type this I am honestly not sure whether this recording worked. This is very exciting to me. This episode is a SpOOooOOkkYY Halloween spectacular! Unless you're a patreon backer in which case this episode is just an episode with lots of slightly-too-early remarks about scary things.
In this episode we discuss The Best Ghost, which
Episode 56: A Podcast With No Subliminal Messages
August 13, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/13
Once again, we go all round the houses. In this episode, Guy approaches the point of seriously enraging Cat by insisting that this is a Poptarts podcast, the concept of irritating compound swears is briefly raised before never being actually discussed, and there is an extended discussion about being creative, and working hard to quiet t
Episode 55: Psychogeography, and making the familiar strange.
August 12, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/12
Here we are again! In this episode Cat and Guy discuss how landscapes can become re-haunted through communal art, the transformative and democratising powers of shitposts on corporate intellectual properties, whether Ronald McDonald was a man or a Clown, and the dangers of accidentally willing John Constantine into being and him giving y
Episode 54: The Ultimate Reckon
August 11, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/11
Honestly, there were many things that I wanted to touch on in this episode, and predictably not a single gosh darn thing was discussed. There was the briefest bit of Bigfoot chat, but honestly not enough to satiate. In this episode we talk about artistic integrity, the nature of criticism, and Guy and Cat have a "spirited debate" which e
Episode 53: Cat Needs To Go To Her Oil Painting Class
August 10, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/10
Fifty three episodes in, and what have we learned? Nothing, if I have anything to say about it. This weeks episode covers Guy and Cat being formlessly mardy, Guy's treatment for a Muppets Bond movie, the value and purpose of a Batman, the concept of "Uncle Jokes", and Cat needing to go to her oil painting class. Honourable mention also
Episode 52: How would YOU trick Alan Sugar?
August 09, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/09
Episode 52! A whole calendar year (if you listen to one episode per week) of Garfield review podcasting! If only my teachers who said I'd never amount to anything could see me now. I'm sure they'd be delighted to be proven correct in ways they'd never imagined. This episode discusses Why Do Parents Make You Think Someone Has Died By Leav
Episode 51: A Certain Degree Of Audio Inconvenience
August 08, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/08
Episode 51 and it's Cat's minus sixth birthday. As with all August 8ths, something terrible is brought into the world. In this episode, a new game of fruits and colours is played, point-and-click adventure games are ruminated upon, the Flintstones movie is danced around, and the comic sees the very first appearance of Odie The Dog.
Episode 50: I'm Talking About Cheesemouth
August 07, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/07
Episode 50! Bloody hell! Fifty whole episodes, and we celebrate by...having Catherine slander Guy about his taste in food. If you're not a fan of food discussion, skip to about 40m to avoid the majority of it.
In this episode we also cover: A dog stealing a slice of cake, briefly touch on the idea of fooling Alan Sugar, and the introduct
Episode 49: A yoghurt's understanding of mathematics
August 06, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/06
Oooh it's a long one today, and Guy has had too much coffee. This is a podcast about homilies, the inherent absurdity of existence (again), what a square number is, and also the brieftest of forays into what exactly constitutes a shitpost vs a troll. We also read a letter from a listener, and eventually talk about Garfield.
Episode 48: Two Minutes of a Row and We End It There
August 05, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/05
In which the concept of content is discussed at great length, Catherine leaves Guy alone to read hobo slang, many interruptions are suffered, and Jon Arbuckle looks off his blimmin' rocker. I quite like this episode, you know?
Episode 47: One more tedious thing to get through
August 04, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/04
In this episode, we invent an imaginary improv troupe to get mad at, Guy reveals the agony of being jeered at by tree children, the bin men come, and we discuss the concept of moving Grange Hill to a submarine. Also, at last, Garfield is discussed.
Sorry for the delay in this episode! There was a visit from Big Depression The Malaise Ap
Episode 46: This is praxis
August 03, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/03
A shocking revelation regarding the introduction of the show. An extended and sincere conversation about media literacy. Catherine's increasing belligerence. 3d sausage fighting games. Shaving foam. A grown woman crying with laughter because of a grape. All this and more in the most obvious container for these notions: A Garfield Podcas
Episode 45: Hubris is the greatest of all sins.
August 02, 1978
https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/02
Forty five episodes. That's so many. And yet here we are, Garfield persists. Older than us and as changeable and unchanging as the seas. He will be here long after we're gone. I hadn't really considered that before I started typing this and now I feel funny. The existential breakdowns usually happen during the episode, not after it. This
