The Tom Barnard Show

How much do you know about chimps? What's there to know? They're monkeys, right? Wrong. See, you're already learning. And if you'd like to continue learning, you can watch Chimp Empire, available now on Netflix. Not that this show doesn't have some vital information of its own. For example, if a simian pats you on the head, that's not necessarily a good thing. By the way, today is day four of what will allegedly be 365 days with Tom not watching any national news. Can he make it the whole year? I guess we'll see. Learn more about your ad choices.

We're trying a new format for this episode. We call it "The 3D method", where we have three guests whose names all start with D. No, not really. It just worked out that way. First we have Dennis Lehane, who's sold ten million books, including his newest one, Small Mercies. Not to be outdone, Dave is about to be two cops, and Doug is now two car salesmen. It's like having multiple lives, except both lives are the same. Why mess with success? Learn more about your ad choices.

Remember boxing? Two men punching each other until one gets knocked unconscious? It's simultaneously emblematic of the good old days and the barbarity of our species. Thankfully we've come to our senses and replaced it with more civilized sports, like MMA and football. Never let it be said we're incapable of learning. Learn more about your ad choices.

Do you require macaroni pictures? If so, you may be out of luck. There are more children out there than ever, but they're not making things out of pasta any more. Another trade lost to the march of technology, no doubt. It's not all bad though. If our children refuse to bring the goods, we'll do it ourselves. Enter Kaela and Selina, two recent mothers who decided that the things children do are worthy of an entire special. They're wrong, though. They're worth at least four or five specials. Hey, it's eighteen years of jokes that write themselves. Learn more about your ad choices.

You've been hearing Tim's dog on a weekly basis for months. Now, finally, she makes her video debut. It's an audio podcast so you won't be able to see her, but trust me, it happened. But if you go to our social media, you'll be able to see it too. Yes, we have cameras now. We're very high tech. No, we're not streaming or uploading the entire show's video anywhere yet. The fact that about half of today's show is dedicated to getting the cameras to simply work is a big part of that. Learn more about your ad choices.

Buffets are a double edged sword. They're cheap, and if you go to the right one, still taste pretty good. Which means all the delicious food you could want for a low price. Just make sure you go to the kind of buffet that has armed guards watching the line so you don't end up with someone else's chicken crumbs on your plate. Of course, once you get your 200 million you'll never need to worry about cheap food again, so you could just try riding it out until then. Learn more about your ad choices.
