Stuffed - Explaterate #15
Who needs their pillow stuffing? Or maybe even double stuffed? This week we take a trip down memory lane when we play a familiar game of searching through phoebes Kindle Unlimited recommendations searching for some titles for Phoebe to trick Cloe with, in a fun game of guess the title.

We're sorry, Carol - Explaterate #14
Clo and Phoebe go over their predictions for 2026 creating a Bingo Sheet for the coming year, all whilst apologising profusely and laughing continously. Sorry for the AI dread in your ears, hopefully the possibility of a Greggs Wrapped gets you through. Thank you for listening, see you in 2028! #Explaterate #Bingo #Predicitions You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate

The Best Friend Quiz - Explaterate #13
Welcome in to episode 13 of Explaterate. This week is a pre-recorded episode as Cloe & Phoebe spent the weekend playing and watching Balders Gate 3 and didn't record. Thus you are now listening to the very first recording of Explaterate EVER. This recording was originally done in May 2023 right after the Eurovision Song Contest and before Cloe and Phoebe had learnt how to use their setup to record audio... so please bare with the sound of this episode. Next week we'll be back to normal! Okay, thanks for reading. Enjoy episode 13 :) #Explaterate #bffs #quiz You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter/X/Whatever it is: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate The Best Friend Quiz - Explaterate Episode 13

Tweenage Dirtbag Baby - Explaterate #12
Let me level with you this week everyone. There wasn't even a hit of organised conversation for this episode, Cloe and Phoebe fully set out with the intention of playing a game and then everything derailed into a conversation about school, cinema trips, dirtbag pre-teen years, and how much Phoebe has taken the role of a sensible adult this time around, whilst Cloe assumes the degenerate responsibilities. Cloe has been sick the last week and decided to record the poddy because she missed hanging out with her best friend, and the combination of Cloe's sickness and Phoebe's high on life and painkiller energy, makes one hell of a catalystic bang. Enjoy episode 12 of Explaterate. Maybe next week we'll play the word association and dissassociation game! #Explaterate #cinema #dirtbag #tweens #school You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter/X: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate

Wine in the Gravy - Explaterate #11
Cloe and Phoebe are back! The dynamic duo have returned to catch up about their letters to each other, plus the most ultimate form of debate there ever could be. The potato preperation tierlist. Spoiler alert, Cloe licks crisps and Phoebe wants wine in her gravy. You'll have to listen to figure out the context. Enjoy! #Explaterate #tierlist #potato #winegravy You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate Wine in the Gravy - Explaterate Episode 11

Books, Byes and Battlestar Galactica - Explaterate #10
This week's episode of Explaterate is a letter back from Phoebe to Cloe following on from the previous week's chaos ramblings. Phoebe goes into her response of Charlie's martini habits, a book review of the current books she's read this year along with personal favourites and some childhood memories from the house her parents leaving. Sit back, grab a tea and enjoy the explateration into your ear holes... sorry. Also no there's not any Battlestar Galactica in the episode, I'm just a huge fan of the US Office and I couldn't not make the reference I apologies for leading you down that hole. I can't imagine Phoebe watching Battlestar Galactica either honestly, but who knows, maybe that's something she really enjoys, in which case this is accurate information it's just not spoken about on this epsiode. Anyway, love you! #Explaterate #books #byes #letter You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate Books, Byes and Battlestar Galactica - Explaterate Episode 10

I'm an Addict - Explaterate #9
This week's episode of Explaterate is a letter to my best friend Phoebe, which Phoebe has already heard all of the information in this pretty much, but I thought instead of releasing an episode that was recorded a long time ago, why not record a little brain dump about my week away, my youtube content addiction and the newest fix of Baulders Gate 3 which has dominated my life. This is the bestest holiday ever. Next week Phoebe will return and the two of us will catch up again, I have many a mini-game ready to go and high fives all round to anyone who listens to the poddy. Thanks for listening, hear you next week! #Explaterate #Youtube #BauldersGate3 #Holiday You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate I'm an Addict - Explaterate Episode 9

Live Laugh Lube - Explaterate #8
It's been two weeks since Cloe and Phoebe have actually spoken since the AI take over. Hear about Cloe's Toothcapades and Phoebe's Bridget Jone's sit-com life. This week of Explaterate is a little different than normal with no flip of a coin as the duo have been busy in their real life lately, however you can expect normal chaos to ensue from next week listeners! Have yourself a merry week. #Explaterate #Birthday #Tooth You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate Live Laugh Lube - Explaterate Episode 8

A Franken Mistake - Explaterate #7
The only thing I can do for this week's episode is apologise. Cloe is out sick and Phoebe is away for the weekend, so we did the next best thing and turned to Clod and Phoebo to take the reins. I even asked Phoebo to explain this week's mistake directly and she said "🎉 Join Phoebo and Clo on this hilarious and creative episode of "Explaterate"! In this wild adventure, Phoebo showcases her stand-up talents, using her signature Phoeboisms and puns to bring the laughs. The dynamic duo plays "5 Word Movies," stumping each other with movie knowledge, and embark on a "quickfire laugh-off" that'll leave you in stitches. With ChatGPT and Eleven Labs by their side, they generate endless fun and creativity, discussing video game designing, Studio Ghibli movies, and even a "what-if" scenario in a video game world! Listen in as they empower women, share their passion for frogs, and dive into hilarious anecdotes about Phil, cake, and Cerberus the cat! So, YOLO! Tune in to "Explaterate" on Spotify and YouTube for a delightful mix of laughter, friendship, and asthmatic wheezing—it's an episode you hardly know 'er! 🎙️🍿🐸" #Explaterate #ai #rambleYou can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate

Quest Dragon - Explaterate #6
It's time for another dose of Explaterate, are you ready for your blood pressure to soar? This week along with reading out some listener emails (thank you to yous who have contacted in that's very kind of you!), Cloe tells Phoebe about one of her favourite YouTube/Twitch content creators of the time and taking influence from a recent video leads into a 1v1 competition of pure bs knowledge on the popular quiz platform called Sporcle. Sporcle is one of the largest community built quiz websites out there and Cloe had the brilliant idea of squaring off against Phoebe in a battle for points. Now was this a wise thing to do? Does she regret her actions? And will Phoebe ever return to the podcast again... *cliffhanger* Have your own Sporcle battles inspired by DougDoug over at Sporcle.com #Explaterate #sprocle #quiz You can find Explaterate on: Spotify: Explaterate Twitter: @Explaterate TikTok: @ExplateratePodcast Instagram: @ExplateratePodcast YouTube: @Explaterate Apple Podcast: Explaterate The following music was used for this media project: Music: Local Forecast - Slower by Kevin MacLeod Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/3988-local-forecast-slower Music: Cinematic Suspense Series Episode 009 by Sascha Ende Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/8224-cinematic-suspense-series-episode-009 Music: Cinematic Suspense Series Episode 008 by Sascha Ende Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/7669-cinematic-suspense-series-episode-008 Music: Jailbreak Whispers by John Bartmann Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/9487-jailbreak-whispers Music: Drums Effects Snare Roll (short) by Agnese Valmaggia Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/6321-drums-effects-snare-roll-short Music: Foam Rubber by Alexander Nakarada Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/4783-foam-rubber Music: Jazzi by Frank Schroeter Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/6469-jazzi Music: Umbrella Pants by Kevin MacLeod Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/4559-umbrella-pants Music: Thinking Music by Kevin MacLeod Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/4522-thinking-music License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Quest Dragon - Explaterate Episode 6

Kuzco & Kermit - Explaterate #5
On this episode of Explaterate Phoebe introduces Cloé to the idea of self-reflection, taking a trip through the 16 Personalities quiz. We all love a bit of pseudoscience and a check-box tick of identification right? RIGHT? Look we completely understand that life and people are a bit more complicated than that, but sometimes it can be pretty fun to put your best friend under a microscope just to double check they're not a psychopath.

Always at a height - Explaterate #1
Phoebe and Cloe welcome in yet another nonsensical rambling for your ears to listen to, with the very first episode of 'Explaterate'. Explaterate is a lost word in time, literally defined as talking excessively. I don't know any other way of describing exactly what Phoebe and Cloe are like to be honest, I think talking without reason or sense is the perfect way to explain what's going on here. In this episode the coin flip which determines the topic of the week landed on 'Would You Rather'. A simple game of choices designed to divide friendships. Will they make it out alive? Will there be an episode two? Listen to find out on Explaterate.
