  • LIP Goes To The Olympics!
    Jul 24 2024

    This episode has a French flavor as we turn our festival series to the Olympic games (1:43). Are we Olympic romantics or skeptics? Why do people keep watching them regardless of all the taint around them? And what is the actual product? Then Neil reveals a hidden talent in a very specific Olympic discipline before dropping a bombshell about a showing in front of 50,000 spectators!

  • 58. One Star Reviews: Uncool Stays & Unethical Drives
    Jul 17 2024

    After over-postulating on the 3 minute Gladiator 2 trailer, Neil and Nicola dive back into One Star Google Reviews (10:50)! Is a for-profit driving school in Salt Lake City that is running a scam on test takers? What exactly is their endgame? And why do they seem to discriminate extra against VTPs (Very Tall People)?


    That leads the guys to the next logical postulation: can we even trust good Google reviews anymore or is a 3.8 star rating paradoxically better than a 4.8 now (26:00)? Then in honor of the summer, they review what seems to be a nightmare holiday destination in Mallorca (29:30)? Will a call to the establishment itself change their minds?

  • 57. Lost In Perambulation (Summer Travel Special)
    Jul 4 2024

    Like Heinz and their delicious ketchup with their 57 varieties, LIP now has 57 episodes to choose from! The question everyone is asking though; are there are any drops left in the postulation bottle? And, speaking of bottles, how difficult is it to drink from the newly EU regulated bottle caps without succumbing to injury (3:35)? A special guest from Westminster pays Nicola and Neil a visit with his BREXIT-inspired postulation.


    Then, pack your bags and renew your passports as Neil introduces the world to a new concept called 'Lost In Perambulation' (11:35). Nicola's first task is to advise Neil on his summer travel plans (or lack thereof). Where can a procrastinator who does not like the heat go? Then, they round things off by discussing this years hottest travel trends, postulating about their significance and the future of holidaying (28:50).

  • 56. Pastor of Muppets
    Jun 27 2024

    Neil and Nicola are back, and they're somehow even more postulatory than ever before!


    After a quick recap on the various sources of brain-rot you can consume the podcast through, we jump into a voice-note postulation Nicola captured live in the field on a recent flight (06:22). Is Main-Character Syndrome alive and well in the skies above Scandinavia, or is there No Real Person Involved?


    From there it's a another tentative dip into the murky paddling-pool of celebrity culture, where the guys discuss exactly what the price of fame truly is (20:41). Is fame a blessing or a curse in 2024, and is anonymous success the smarter play?


    Finally we wrap things up with a check-in on our latest musical exploits (34:38). Nicola reveals his Youtube Rabbithole discovery of the month, and Neil discusses the stark contrast he experienced seeing rock/metal stalwarts Tool and Metallica live in quick succession.

  • 55. When GPT Met Belgium
    May 30 2024

    Neil and Nicola are back to postulate on the state of mundanity and pop culture! On this episode they get techie in the beginning as they ruminate on the practical usefulness and accuracy of Chat GPT (2:23). Plus will Scarlett defeat Altman (and is talk of Zuck with a beard real)? Then, they discuss the recent fallout surrounding the Dublin-NYC interactive video portal (9:00). What does it say about us as humans? Were there more Irish mooners than Americans? And what other cities could adopt the same concept?


    Then, it's on to what is becoming a recurring segment: Neil Hearts Belgium (19:55). Nicola takes Neil through a postulation gauntlet of Belgian records (19:55), which one should they be remembered for? The longest ever plank? A bankrupt airline? A waste of good chocolate? How about the longest period without a sitting government?

  • 54. Melodic Trends & Loose Ends
    May 16 2024

    This episode is jam-packed with all the postulatory loose ends you did not think needed tying. Nicola and Neil power their way through a personalized celebrity cover, the importance (or lack thereof) of the Eurovision project (3:30) and whether or not we need an Average Joe Olympic Games.


    Neil provides an update on his recent bed buying experience including a postulation on paying someone to move your old bed for you (13:30). Then, it's apology time as the guys apologize to Germans (and their cuisine) (29:10) and Dutch sick bag collectors the world over (33:00). Nicola rounds things off by taking Neil back to the mundane streak gauntlet; will chicken nuggets or map drawing dethrone the Big Mac (34:40)?

  • 53. Smells Like Streak Spirit
    May 8 2024

    After an atrocious attempt at an introduction in Irish, Nicola runs Neil through a gauntlet of mundane streaks, challenging him to pick one to stick to (4:35). Will he choose Will Shortz's streak of playing table tennis everyday for 10 years? Or will he eat at least one Big Mac everyday for the rest of his life? What about collecting as many sick bags as possible? The postulations are endless and quite weird!


    Then, listeners, press start as Neil postulates on the future of video game adaptations (32:00). Are we living in the renaissance age of video games made into movies and TV series? What is driving it and what can we expect to see next?

  • 52. Do You Eat To Live Or Live To Eat?
    Apr 25 2024

    Postulators, assemble! On this edition we postulate on the addictiveness of online games. Where are we after the thousandth Wordle? How many immaculate grids can there possibly be? And who is more likely to crack on their streaks, Neil or Nicola?


    Then, since nothing gets our hosts more excited than staring at a nice map and eating a lovely meal, we decided to combine the two (7:15). Nicola presents his theory of an Eat To Live/Live To Eat meridian that splits Europe equally and they go about testing the hypothesis live on the podcast. Where will your favorite country land? Why does Germany get its own category? Do we underestimate the Balkans? And could the Baltic block pull off a historic upset?
