The Wikicast: Recent Episodes
Clark and Maw
It's a delayed Christmas miracle! Simon managed to peel himself from parenting, and Dan from... lawyering?, long enough to record an episode.
We talk Jingle Jam, films, music, books, parenthood, and HE HAS TWO FAKE LEGS??

Simon would like to apologise for the fact that this episode is checks notes FOUR MONTHS LATE. An awful lot has happened with the studio move and parenthood and about a million other things.
Anyway, hear from the boys back in May talk surprisingly seriously about YouTube videos and completely lose it over a whole new genre of Australian music. We will be back with a more timely episode before long!

A special episode. The boys talk about Simon's dad and the role he played in both of their lives.
Some things never change however: Dan talks about choral music, and Simon is mean about some children. Also, urine.

Simon and Dan bring in the new year with... 12 months of monastery soups. Warning: this episode contains some certified Dan Maw moments.
The boys read out some excellent correspondence, swap stories of Christmas, and reminisce about times spent together in Amsterdam
A new episode of the Wikicast? It's a Christmas miracle! Simon and Dan chat about Christmas in its various forms, singing, movies, and... well, the usual guff. But with a festive hat on! Also, Simon is sick. Sorry about that.
This episode arrived on a paddle steamer before getting on a horse.
Thank you to everyone who has come with us on the Wikicast journey in 2022! Sorry for wasting all your time. We're excited to serve up fresh nontent for you in 2023. Now where's the brandy...

Simon and Dan haven't spoken in weeks apart from the London incident so expect a big catch-up! Along the way they discover a rather unique album, talk about their latest discoveries on Netflix, and a reader describes the first (?) wikicast-themed dream...
Lots of passion and geekery in this one, enjoy!

Truly, one of our best episodes.

It's a jobbing boat. What more needs to be said? A lot, it turns out.
This episode is a doozy. We talk anime, give new music recommendations (check out the links below), Simon sings an impromptu country song, and Dan makes some... interesting... choices in a choose-your-own-adventure fan fiction. Not one to miss!

The episode with a visual aid. Simon and Dan discuss House of Gaga, Olympic sports, the Jingle Jam, and finally read the brilliant Holopod Star Wars fan fiction!
For reasons that will become clear in the next episode, this episode is very, very, very, very dated. We recorded this over a month ago, as is obvious from our discussion of the Jingle Jam. To cut a long story short, Simon got quite sick (but is better now!).

The article Simon didn't want to tear himself away from. The boys talk about flight on other planets, sponsoring a flight on this planet, and Dan discovers his new favourite sport. Oh, and Simon has some announcement or other.
Fantastic work from you all writing in with your strange sports - please do keep them coming in, and let us know if there's an opportunity to join you (in the post rona times) to film us trying them!

I'll be honest, I edited this episode yesterday and I cannot remember for the life of me what we talk about. Something about Sea Beet I think? You're on your own.

This episode edited by the one and only, the forehead, the tenor with a friendly demeanour, Dan Maw!
We. Are. Back.
What's the article? Who cares. Simon and Dan natter on about what they've been up to, and drop some major bombs. Dan is doing something very interesting next year! Simon loves The Mandalorian! Dan STILL hasn't seen Hamilton!
After our hiatus we're now back with regular episodes, and this time around they're being edited by Dan! That means things might sound a bit different, and possibly explain that we may have completely forgotten how our show works. Enjoy!

You asked, we delivered! We invited Adam on the show to tell us why we're not role models, and then get sucked into quick possibly the most interesting wiki-rabbit hole of all time. It involves death rays, Citizen Kane, and "Oom the Omnipotent". All this and much more in this bumper episode of the Wikicast!

It's a very special episode. We are joined by Simon's girlfriend Pixel Girl! We talk about your school stories, review the Mandalorian, wonder how Pixel Girl puts up with Simon, and some truths about their relationship come to light... Oh and an armoured fish. Or something. For like ten seconds.

Simon has a very special episode for Dan: our first ever bit of in the field reporting! Also in this week's irreverent podcast: Dan rapping! Simon impersonates Picosby! The dynamic duo talk about films for waaaay too long, and Dan talks about the premiere of his choral piece of the week!
Eyyy-eyyyy!

Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the airwaves, Simon and Dan come crashing back with a whole new hour of pseudo-content. How many Gs do you pull on a Milton Keynes roundabout? How hammered should you be to watch Cats (2019)? Was there a college of vampires in Kentucky? We ask all these questions and more in the brand new run of the Wikicast!

Episode 66.2 really, after Simon accidentally deleted his recording of 66.1...
After an (explained) absence, the boys get possibly their shortest article yet and so fill you in on what's been going on in their lives: working with 900K+ YouTubers, Katy Perry orgasming, and learning about the benthiccc zone!

The boys are back after their summer break, and they are BURSTING with things to talk about. Horse racing! Singing! World of Warcraft! The Wurzels!
Strap yourself in for an hour of tangents, diversions, and occasionally a bit of learning. It's good to be back :) Let us know if you'd like to see us play some World of Warcraft!

Dan and Simon gaze deeply into St Patrick's hole. If you have a site of historical importance near you, please do email in! We want to hear all about your local history, and bonus points if you send us a photo of you listening to the podcast (or in Wikicast gear) at said site! Also please do guess what Dan's riddle is all about. Because Simon is a bit confuzzled.
Also it's our two year anniversary!! Thank you for putting up with us for so long, you guys rule. We totally remembered that it was our anniversary from the very start of the episode, as per...

Blowie. Exeter. Confession. Hoooo boy.
Dan and Simon chat about old films and get caught in a wiki closed loop, the podcast loses some weight, we have yet more talents showcased from the readership, including some fantastic fan fiction! Also, we close out with some beautiful music from the University of Exeter Chapel Choir. Let us know what you think about the new structure!
Also please do send us your confessions for confession corner, poster photoshops (it doesn't have to be The Goonies!), and any and all hidden talents you may have!

He's back! And so's Simon! The Wikicast returns after Dan finished his exams. And oh boy is his hangover hitting him hard.
This episode we talk about the MCU, Game of Thrones, Chernobyl, the communist berry pickers of California, and generally get caught up! This is one of Simon's favourite ever episodes, give it a listen!

Simon and Dan discover a new Favourite wikipedia article! Simon airs some complicated feelings about Emma Stone's boobs! Also in this episode we recommend some bizarre modern music, a whole slew of podcasts, and discover that many of our listeners mysteriously have head injuries... it's the Wikicast!

Oh boy. You lovely volk donated money to charity in the Jingle Jam on the promise that Dan and I would get hammered and record an episode. So, er, here we go... it's the end of both our careers. Simon mistakes a famous composer for a Nazi scientist. Dan's northern and Aussie sides get combined. A fan doesn't have brain cancer! It's all a goddamn mess so just sit back and enjoy...

Simon gets rather angry about Brexit (and Name of the Wind). Our intrepid heroes also discuss climate change, Djesse (the new album from Jacob Collier), the Yogscast jingle jam, and about a million links. And a guy with a leaf blower.

Dan talks about a transformative experience in Prague, Simon chats shit about the Incredibles 2, and we receive an incredibly exciting fan fiction!
A really packed episode this week, we're also talking about results day (and Dan's shady dealings), about Netflix recommendations (THE GOOD PLACE), Dan's date-ending medical emergency, the NHS, manlets, and so much more. You'll just have to listen to find out I guess...

The show just turned a year old, so we thought we'd compile some of our best moments into a special episode while Dan is on tour in Prague! You can expect some pure Simon and Dan goodness, some star turns by our guests, the best of correspondence, and some famous/infamous fan fics.
This is a long-form 'best of' in that I've clipped whole segments from past shows. If you dear reader would like to compile a short-form version where it's just the best sentences and jokes and rants then we would love to see that more than words can say. Please, please make that.
As I say in the episode, you guys have given us more than we have given you and so we remain in your debt. Thank you for being such an amazing community of listeners. You're all the best and we love you very much. Mwah.

A bonus, bumper episode bursting with banter and alliteration! Apologies for the late release of this one - we had a few logistical issues recording and editing, but all in the past now. Simon and Dan are joined by Alex Lathbridge, noted scientist/comedian/weightlifter to discuss poppadoms, racism, music, books, haircuts, and highways.

Sally and Simon are joined by Dan for a bit. Go follow her on the twitter, sometimes she's ok. In this episode the gang talk about taste in films, mountains in Wyoming, Dan's almighty hangover, happy lesbian films, read a fan fiction, try some Welsh, and discuss how to keep on top of uni work. So we stay on topic the whole time, basically.
Note: we haven't forgotten about your correspondence RE: the racist incident at Exeter Uni! As we had a guest this week we thought we'd wait until the next episode to discuss it, so it can be given due attention. There's still time to send your emails in if you're a BME student at a UK uni - please do get in touch.

In this rushed, shitshow of an episode Simon and Dan discuss the racism scandal coming out of Exeter University, an order of knights represented at the UN, and some watching recommendations. Also Simon can't say the word accredited.
Again, massive apologies for the rush this week. Between Dan's schedule and internet problems we just ran out of time. We'll make it up to you next episode!

This week we actually talk about the wiki article for a while, and (statistically) incredibly it's an article one of us had actually been on before! Also this week you hear how terrible Simon is at accents, a meta discussion of online `fame', a whole bunch of correspondence, and a new fan fiction! What a banger of an episode.

Immediately followed by discussion of approaches for making YouTube videos, an in-depth review of BLACK PANTHER, a crisis corner all about closure, and a few reader emails. Also baguettes. Taha is a top lad, you should definitely check him out!

After a shaky start (blame Clarktholicism) we talk about Vidcon, film directors, the Apple Homepod, tackle a chronic illness in crisis corner, answer your questions in correspondence corner, and see the triumphant return of The Time Traveller with the Extremely Large Forehead. We had a lot of fun recording this, and hope you enjoy listening!
Also next week we have a guest with us (ooooOOOOOOooo) so do get your correspondence in nice and early this week so we have plenty to talk about. We're counting on you!

If you've ever wondered which one of us has the bigger penis, the answer is confirmed in this podcast. Also featuring: sports, retro games, merch discussion, and a mystery unboxing.
ALSO WE LAUNCHED A PATREON LOL. For just $1 a month (the price of a can of coke or something) you can help the show massively by 1) helping us pay for hosting, 2) keep Wikipedia afloat, 3) help us make more content for you, and 4) pledge your allegience to #TeamCat or #TeamDog. We're not asking for much, but if you can help us make the podcast grow and get better and better it would be massively appreciated. Hopefully not just by us, but also by our audience too! So really you're helping yourself. Why are you still reading this? GO TO DAT LINK

Yes, we couldn't quite believe that we got this article either. But don't fear - we don't actually talk about music that much! In this episode Simon has a complete breakdown, we talk about films, scaring kids, and a rather saucy fan fiction has Dan serving Simon coq au vin... minus the vin.
