Louis Theroux: Cardboard Owls, Incel Heirs, and Karate-Chopping Geese
3w ago00:48:40Tap to summarizeIn this week’s episode of the Vodscarf we welcome legendary documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux (after he accidentally walked onto set, why else would he be there?!) and Oxford astrophysicist Professor Chris Lintott to the studio for an hour of pure, unadulterated science and anti-comedy. Things get incredibly weird, incredibly fast. Watch as we attempt to save our nose-diving viewer retention graph by shouting random words at you, dive deep into the tragic family lore of Harry’s fictional heir, Gary, and witness Louis Theroux showing he is in fact Harry's number one fan. If you've ever wanted to hear an esteemed Oxford professor explain why aliens might just be a bunch of Venusian penguins standing around in their own poo, listen up. 00:00 – Fixing our terrible viewer retention graph (Kittens!

4w ago00:58:37Tap to summarizeAlex Horne - comedian, creator, and the middle of three boys from Chichester - joins Harry to talk about loving school, his hard-hitting Goldsmiths student documentary about urban foxes, and whether the word "meat" was meant as a pun in Harry's new ballad. We also hear about a 24 hour singing challenge that accidentally lasted 25 and three quarter hours, why Alex's wife Rachel is in charge of his private pension, and a highly questionable "life swap" idea based entirely on dishwasher ethics.
