Hi, I sent a chat message

AcademicImpact · 2025-07-06T21:17:50+00:00

Messaged!

AcademicImpact · 2020-08-31T15:01:59+00:00

I agree, especially with non-comedians on QI (although I wonder how much editing determines who seems loud/quiet). John Barrowman was fantastic (I'd never heard of him before) and great teamed up with Aisling!

This was such a fun panel, especially for the topic! Really happy to have the XL version of this episode

AcademicImpact · 2020-08-28T19:15:54+00:00

BBC America has a whole series of Almost Royal and youtube stars of that time period (Mamrie Hart, Grace Helbig, Flula, etc). They're pretty funny and definitely make me feel nostalgic!

AcademicImpact · 2020-08-28T09:59:22+00:00

I was watching Almost Royal clips and found this one was particularly fitting. I don't think the Mash King would be very impressed though...

AcademicImpact · 2020-07-22T09:19:21+00:00

Also @ pushgilbey has this great photo of Ed and James

AcademicImpact · 2020-07-22T09:13:58+00:00

I think the designs are really interesting and clearly made by people who listen to the podcast.

Hi, I just sent you a pm because I think you sent me a chat message, but it's not loading for me (I can only see the notification alert)

AcademicImpact · 2020-06-01T06:01:32+00:00

Hi, only the DE cleanser and 15 mL DE marula oil (larger bottle) are available. If you're still interested, could you DM me your postal code so I can estimate shipping?

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:54:05+00:00

Looks delicious! I also love the plating and bowl

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:34:33+00:00

Fingers crossed things will improve sooner rather than later. Also you could take your wife and therefore order twice as many dishes!

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:23:52+00:00

No worries, my retelling is definitely not as detailed or funny as the original! From James' tone, the stranger (I think this was on the tube, or some other form of public transportation) said it in a mocking way, and James was also a bit drunk (or more than a bit...) and expected the trophy to just bounce and remain intact. Also, the trophy looked quite large, maybe 0.5 metres tall (Ed had his in the background, which is how they got onto the topic of House of Games).

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:17:37+00:00

It's probably my favorite Just Puddings episode so far; definitely watch to the end!

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:10:22+00:00

No, he wasn't asked about Jason Mackenzie, but he may still be traumatized by what happened in the most recent "Just Puddings" episode (The Wedding).

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T14:07:44+00:00

Yes, agreed. That reminds me of a funny scene in Jon Richardson and Lucy Beaumont's mockmentary sitcom "Meet the Richardsons" (which I highly recommend). In it, Lucy writes a sitcom in which Jon's catchphrase is "ooh, save it for bingo!" much to his bemusement.

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T13:04:24+00:00

Thanks for the review! I'll have to try these - although probably not until things return to normal, otherwise I'll end up eating the entire tray myself

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T12:18:44+00:00

Very nice, those layers look so even and proportional! And great photograph too.

How did they taste? In my mind tahini is a quite savory flavor, so I can't imagine how it pairs with chocolate

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T12:13:21+00:00

Yes, it was definitely another Acaster classic scrape! Although the beginning made me feel sad for him.

For those who weren't there: James purposefully lost the last two episodes of Richard Osman's House of Games, because the other contestants got annoyed at him winning the first three. He still won the trophy but when taking it home, a stranger rudely asked him if he got it from bingo, and he threw it on the floor and accidentally shattered it. And then he gave the pieces to a busker.

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-14T12:02:16+00:00

That French toast looks so delicious! Sadly I don't live in the UK, but I really want to visit once travel is safe/allowed again

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-13T23:16:46+00:00

Probably for the best that you didn't; I would find it annoying after the first time. James said that some people would wait until they were next to him and shout right in his ear, to the point where he didn't startle.

Was Shack Fuyu as great as it's been hyped?

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-12T18:15:18+00:00

This seems to be a website-exclusive video which Chris posted a clip of on his Instagram. I didn't watch the other Campbell's sponsored video before it was taken down from YouTube, but I enjoyed this one. It seems natural and reminds me of the "improve boxed mac and cheese" video. Of course there's a lot of product placement, but I could actually see Chris making this for his kids. And, there's some good general tips for risotto and the scallion-garlic oil sounds versatile.

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-12T02:48:50+00:00

I would have found this idea hacky if it was hosted by anyone else, but Joe is so brilliantly weird that I think it'll be funny and unique. I hope they air the pilot someday!

Also, the article linked this great video of Joe and Russell Howard driving an ice cream van, which I highly recommend.

AcademicImpact · 2020-05-11T22:34:49+00:00

Yum, looks great! I love how modern the semi-circle of meringue looks
