Joe Marler's Things People Do
Crowd Network
Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too. Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do. Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.

About Cleaners: All the secret hacks you need to sort your house out

About Lifeboats: The father and daughter saving lives for the RNLI
We have not one, but two guests on the show this week! John and Lily are father and daughter, who both selflessly give up their lives to volunteer for the RNLI. They are constantly on call to answer their pagers (yes, they still exist in 2023), suit up and head out to sea to rescue people on lifeboats... sometimes mid-roast dinner, which comes with its own roast potato related dilemmas. They rescue people from place crashes, sinking yachts and many other dangerous situations. The passion they have for lifeboats is infectious, and the passion John has for crocs footwear is something else entirely...Come and see our next live show (with Joe Wilkinson): https://link.dice.fm/B708c6703331New JMS caps and hoodies available here: joemarler.co.uk/shopTo get ad-free and longer episodes on Apple, hit the 'grow the show' button or click: https://apple.co/3sAX0xROn Spotify you can subscribe for £1 a week by clicking this link: https://anchor.fm/joemarlershowTo become an official sponsor, go to Patreon.com/joemarlershow To get official show socks, click here: https://www.stand4socks.com/products/joe-marler-show-sockTo grow the show on socials, look for @joemarlershow on Instagram, Twitter and Tiktok Music courtesy of BMG Production Music Learn more about your ad choices.

About Mayors: Andy Burnham on expensive trains, and 'the' Joy Division
What does a mayor actually do apart from wear chains and cut ribbons? Well, when we were in Manchester for the tour, we met up with Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater Manchester, and it turns out he doesn't actually do either of those things much. In this episode, we discuss how to make changes in a city, why it costs more to get the train to Manchester from London than to fly, and what Joe would do as the mayor of Heathfield. There is also a lot of music chat, and Joe offends Andy by calling one of Manchesters most iconic bands 'the Joy Division'.Come and see us in Clapham on November 1st?
