Mart's World Podcast

Ep9: Twitter Q&A

This week Chris, Carl and I answer a couple of questions that listeners have asked us on Twitter such as... What famous person would we invite around for dinner? And who do we think should be locked up in a nuthouse? Obviously Trump, Hitler and Saddam got a mention.

Ep8: America - What's the point of it?

Carl, Chris and myself discuss the USA. What's the point of them? They just cause wars and problems. I asked the question 'how do they keep their teeth so white when they eat so much? Are they injecting the fat straight into their veins to bypass their mouths?'

Ep7: Snowflakes - what are they and are they right?

This week Chris, Carl and I discuss snowflakes. Personally I think most of them need to grow up and stop getting offended over nothing. Chris makes a valid point though. If they keep on complaining about everything that everyone does and says, then eventually nobody will say or do anything offensive to anyone. But is that a good idea?

Bonus Podcast - Indian Man Sues Parents For Having Him

Yep, this sure sounds crazy but the guy has a point. He's suing his parents for bringing him into this world without his consent. Chris and Carl joined me on a Whatsapp call to discuss whether what he says makes sense or if he's just a nutter.

Bonus Podcast - Police Using Crime Prediction Software

I got Carl and Chris on another Whatsapp call to discuss another BBC News item. !4 Police forces in the UK are using, or planning to use Crime Prediction Software. One of it's purposes is to carry out an "individual risk assessment", which attempts to predict how likely an individual is to commit an offence or be a victim of a crime. That sounded crazy to me so I had to get the guys on to discuss it.

Bonus Podcast - The Gucci Blackface Jumper Caffuffle

We just had to do a bonus podcast about one of the headlines on the BBC News website. Gucci brought out a new black jumper that also covers the lower half of your face but with a difference. It has a hole cut out of it around the mouth area and they have also surrounded the cut out area in red so it looks like lips. I called Carl and Chris on Whatsapp and we give our opinion on whether Gucci made a stupid decision or whether they knew exactly what they were doing to gain publicity.

Ep6: Movies Good or crap?

This is the third episode we recorded at the same time as episodes 4 and 5, so we still have some technical issues. We discussed our favourite movies. My favourite of last year was Black Panther. I also liked Great Wall which some of the others thought was rubbish, but what do they know. And it turns out that Carl is a big fan of Cinderella.

It's my podcast so obviously my opinion is what really counts.

Ep5: Should the man pay on a first date?

This episode started off with the question 'Should the man pay on the first date?' but quickly moved on to a debate on whether women and children should still be the first people to leave a sinking ship, and why is Carl's cat inviting other cats into the house. We did agree on the original question though. So have a listen and leave a comment.

Ep4: Is Artificial Intelligence going to kill us all??

A crowd of us got together to discuss whether artificial intelligence is going to make our lives easier or kill us all. I mean if everything is automated then we won't need to work, so what the hell will we do all day? On the other hand, robots may decide that they are far more advanced than us so we become obsolete and need to be disposed of. (New episodes every Wednesday)

Episode 3 - The munchies, severed arms and moles with metal detectors

Part three of my chat with Chris. we talk about chocolate bars getting smaller, St Franci Xavier's severed arm on tour and animals digging for treasure.
