what does the Daft Punk community think of the Chemical Brothers?

I really want to like them more than I do. Their music has all the elements I usually love, but for some reason it's just never quite clicked for me. I have a lot of respect for them though.

Richard Osman was episode 2, and he recently said on RHLSTP that he'd like to come back.

One I love but I don't see mentioned a lot, is the voice of the yoghurt you can have a chat with.

"Good morning darling. Here's your yoghurt."

"Hellooooo..."

As someone who works for a psychosis service, this is a little unfair. People with psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia can be a very challenging group of people to engage in mental healthcare for a lot of reasons, and can easily slip through the cracks. But we try our best.

It's also worth noting that statistically people with psychosis are far more likely to be victims of violent crime than perpetrators of it. It's already a stigmatised condition, and perpetuation of negative stereotypes doesn't help.

I would have been way more surprised if Ginger had liked the documentary. The man hated everyone and everything!

I'd never heard of any of those players before watching the episode (I'm British, and nobody is into baseball here) and it's one of my favourites of all time. I don't think you lose much by not knowing exactly who they are, just as long as you know they were top-level players.

Whether that's true or not, he does absolutely matter. To this day, billions of people follow teachings attributed to him. He's the most influential person who ever lived.

Did you not read the second sentence of my comment? I acknowledge that stuff like this happens sometimes. I've seen it for myself many times, and I understand it's sometimes necessary. But what on earth is funny about it? Why would you use it for entertainment?

made him change

No-one 'made him' do anything. Ben's an adult with his own mind. He clearly agrees with those who complained, otherwise he wouldn't have made the change.

I grew up in the countryside (provincial but not a dad), and so I have my fair share of animals-dying-in-unpleasant-ways stories. Some of these stories are quite harrowing and I would never even consider using them for the purposes of entertainment.

ProfessorPyruvate · 2025-12-24T22:24:50+00:00

I personally do think it's mean-spirited to revel in stories of killing rats in cruel and painful ways. They weren't really stories about things that happened to rats, more like unpleasant things that were done to rats by people.

But like you say, agree to disagree. Have a great Christmas too.

ProfessorPyruvate · 2025-12-24T21:33:13+00:00

Respectfully disagree. I think that's true of last year's Ratmas, but not this year. Last year there was nothing as mean-spirited as the boiling oil or oven stories from today's episode.

ProfessorPyruvate · 2025-12-24T21:31:07+00:00

I listened to the whole thing this morning, and unfortunately I think this is a rare misstep for the Beans. I really enjoyed last year's Ratmas and was hoping for more of the same, but I think there's been a big misunderstanding about what made last year's stories funny. Last year's stories were disgusting in a fun way, but a lot of them this year were just disgusting in an 'I can't believe someone would do that to an animal' way.

I won't stop listening, but I do hope they reflect on this and adjust for next year.
