All the simple questions are asked on this podcast, week in, week out. Ketchup or brown sauce? Beef or salmon? Who owns the Moon? Yep. Standard. Dave has employed the talents of Dr. Jill Stuart, an expert in space policy, ethics and law, to explain all about humanity’s plans to explore, potentially colonise and possibly even exploit the Moon. We also meet a differently-qualified lady, who was selling plots on the sun on eBay but they stopped her. And now she’s suing them.

Okay, this week’s episode won’t help you avoid the travesty of certain 'Irish' accents attempted by some Hollywood greats, because it’s not about accents. It’s about the unique way English is spoken on the island of Ireland, so it is. The phrasing, the word order, the emphatic tags — we got you covered.Who better to explain it than Sonya Matthews, someone with two degrees in Hiberno-English?As if that isn’t enough, Part 1 sees Dave find out about the toughest US Presidential candidate of all time.To listen to Dave on the radio check out https://www.todayfm.com/shows/dave-moore-1499732To see Neil on tour check out www.neildelamere.com/gigsTo follow Sonya on TikTok visit https://www.tiktok.com/@mathewssonyaPre-order Dave's book here https://www.easons.com/daves-bad-jokes-pb-dave-moore-9781804582060Sources:https://www.britannica.com/technology/V-2-rockethttps://www.history.com/news/shot-in-the-chest-100-years-ago-teddy-roosevelt-kept-on-talkinghttps://www.livescience.com/planet-earth/giant-phallus-shaped-iceberg-floating-in-conception-bay-surprises-residents-of-dildo-canadaPresented and Produced by Neil Delamere and Dave MooreEdited by Eimear Shannon and Nicky RyanMusic by Dave MooreArtwork by Ray McDonnell Hosted on Acast.

In this week’s episode, there is 100% less colonoscopy content than last week. Disappointing, we know. However, what this episode lacks in colorectal exploration, it more than makes up for with Dane Bowers, The Who and the Cheers theme tune! You see, Dave is introducing us all to Rob Johnson, who is a Pop Music Activist. He literally saves the pop songs that streaming forgot and gets them put online for us all to hear.Also, Neil describes the most romantic date he’s ever been on. It also features much less colorectal content than we would all have hoped. Except for Neil’s date, one would imagine.
