The Perhaps Chaps: Recent Episodes
The Perhaps Chaps
Three chaps and their trusty producer delve deep into a different topic each week and explore each of their infinite possibilities. Perhaps give it a try? Artwork by @doodlesfrommybrain
Oh you best believe the Perhaps Chaps have done an episode on Free Willy. The once heartwarming, not entirely troubling 90s movie about freeing a whale, who in turn was being held captive in real life. Very problematic, everyone, very very problematic. ENJOY!
Perhaps time for another bonus episode? The chaps continue their foray into films from their childhood they thought were good at the time, and this week it is the turn of FLUBBER. Did you like Flubber? Do you still like Flubber? Do we like Flubber? What is Flubber? Flubber? The Perhaps Chaps do their best to answer all of these questions and more, so get your green goo out and get it on.
The name’s Chaps, Perhaps Chaps, and it’s time for another bonus episode! This time the chaps are talking Bond! But only the Piers Brosnan Bonds, because let’s be honest, he was the greatest Bond; OR WAS HE?! The chaps continue this short bonus series, where they dive into some of their favourite films growing up, but PERHAPS...they aren’t so good anymore?
Perhaps Bonus episodes? Whilst we’ve been waiting for lockdown restrictions to relax so we can meet up and film Tom getting in the sea before starting season 3, we thought we’d record some bonus eps for you lovely people! Shorter than normal, we take a deep dive into some of the movies we all liked when we were kids but perhaps don’t like as much any more... Starting with The Lost World: Jurassic Park! That’s right, not the classic first film, but the strange sequel that followed with Jeff Goldblum as the lead and the bit with the T-Rex in the city. Perhaps it hasn’t aged as well as the first? Perhaps there are some very questionable plot choices? And perhaps we do some of the worst dinosaur impressions of all time towards the end of the episode...
It’s finally here. The season finale. Season 2 has come to an end and there can only be 1 PERHAPS CHAPS CHAMPION. James goes into the final episode with a healthy lead but will it be enough to hold off Tom & Jack? Which chap will come out victorious? But more importantly, which losing chap will get in the sea? Listen to the thrilling conclusion NOW!
BANG THAT DRUM PERHAPS FANS! Because Perhaps...Drums? HAS ARRIVED! In their first venture into the world of music the chaps talk bongos, beatboxing, and a trampoline drum that could change the leisure industry forever. They also talk about saunas for about 10 minutes because Tom mishears something and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened.
It’s one for the shoes fans. Perhaps...SHOES has arrived and is ready for your feet and ear holes. This week the chaps ponder whether we’d be better off without shoes, whether shoes with built-in coffee machines would be beneficial and there’s another heart-stopping twist in the race for the Perhaps Chaps Championship.
Wrestling. Is it real? Is it fake? Why don’t Olympic wrestlers use steel chairs? Why do pro-wrestlers wear such little clothing? Why are we obsessed with it? All of these questions and more are answered this week by your favourite Perhaps Chaps, and if that wasn’t enough, Jack & Tom end a season-long grudge match in the first ever podcast wrestling match.
SANDWICHES. Sarnies. Some food, in between some bread. Humans can’t get enough of them and the Perhaps Chaps want to know why! This week they consider a café where sandwiches don’t exist, a sarnie where birds fly out of it and a delicious secret about earth you may not have realised. Butter your bread, plug your earphones in and chomp away.
IT'S CHRISTMAAAASSSSSSSSS!! The Perhaps Chaps Championship is set aside for this weeks BONUS episode. Get your festive socks on and put those feet up. It's time to relax and Perhaps Christmas?
PLANTS. Giver of life. Our leafy green friends who were here long before we were and will be here long after we’re gone. The chaps tuck into a plant-less garden of Eden, how plants can revolutionise the business world and struggle through one of Tom’s most agonising conspiracy theories yet!
MARS. Earth’s hot and dry best friend. Perhaps we’ll live in on it one day? Perhaps not. The chaps tackle whether such a thing might one day be possible, easy access elevators straight into space and a chocolatey conspiracy theory that will have your brain juices positively fizzing.
STRAP IN EVERYONE AND KEEP YOUR EARS INSIDE THE CARRIAGE AT ALL TIMES.
Because Perhaps...Rollercoasters? Is HERE! The chaps dig into 18th century rollercoasters, a rollercoaster made out of mash and gravy and discover the boyband member who saved the human race.
LIFT. THAT. HAT! We have a brand new episode for you this week and we pull so much more out of a hat than just a small rabbit.
We pose the the eternal questions of, what was the first hat and who was it’s wearer? Do hats really get the respect they deserve and what more could hats do for us? Out now on all your favourite streaming platforms for your ears and minds!
THE CHAPS ARE BACK! With a brand new series! And this time they’re fighting for the greatest honour in podcasting; THE PERHAPS CHAPS CHAMPIONSHIP. A season long competition that promises action and adventure, heartbreak and glory. Tune in to find out more!
As well as seeking eternal glory, in Episode 1, the chaps talk hipster horses, horses from Hollywood and tuck into James’s Juicy Horse Goss.
IT’S THE SEASON FINALE! And the chaps are tackling the internet’s most beloved animal, THE CAT. Do cat’s need humans more than humans need cats? Where exactly would the human race be without them? And why don’t we accessorise their whiskers more often? All of this and much more in a meowvolous end to season 1.
THIS week we have a peer at our favourite ever face. THE CLOCK. CLOCKS. What on this earth would we do without clocks? If you have ever wondered what we did before those little handy faces, get those ears WIDE open and sit down or walk around to listen these aged questions.
Dunk on in and listen to boys talk about how biscuits are a humans best friend. They don't say that but they do give advice on what to do if someone looks at you like you're a Bourbon and how to live with an alive biscuit man. As usual they also get upset contemplating a life without our crumbly loved ones.
We're back with episode 7! This week the chaps bond over Magnets. Who knew Magnet Fishing was a thing? How else could we utilise the iconic king of attraction? Are magnets even important at all? Yes, yes they are.
It’s episode 6 and this week the chaps discuss the trusty chair! James contemplates the nightmare of living in a world without chairs, Tom brings a conspiracy theory for the ages to the table and Jack tries to shift his revolutionary food chair. The entirety of this podcast was recorded whilst sat down on chairs.
In episode 5 we divulge into the lost ancient art of PERFUME, we lift up the covers and peek into suggestions for Christian Dior and other fantastic scenters out there. Peering into mind bending questions like, why do we wear nice smellies? Who is it for? WELL PREPARE TO FIND OUT FRIEND! Pick up a drink, hunker down and apply your favourite perfume because ALL is about to be revealed!
In episode 4 the chaps discuss the car of the sea, the beloved BOAT. Jack is armed with a plethora of boat related inventions, Tom contemplates the mythical sea peoples and James tries to imagine an unthinkable word without oars.
It's episode three and the chaps dive deep into the world of lasers. Laser superpowers, lasers in films and a laser hair body suit are the hot topics this week, as well as contemplating the unthinkable thought of a life without lasers.
In episode two the chaps tackle one of life’s great mysteries; the humble tomato. Are they secretly evil? Could we be utilising their seeds more efficiently? And what would we have done without the Aztec’s who first used the tomato for their din dins?
It’s episode one and where better for the boys to begin than the beginning of time. The gents talk secret underground dinosaur societies, miniature Jurassic Parks and what might have happened if the asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs never existed.
