There’s a million things you “should” be doing, but can you be bothered? 🤔
Our plan was to stop "living for the weekend" and finally find a hobby we both enjoy. That hobby, is now a podcast, about trying different hobbies! (Or basically anything we hear people talking about, or saying you "should" try). The goal? See if they really are worth all the bother of getting up out of our comfy seats to actually try.
We'll test them and discuss as many as possible, so you can stay put in aforementioned, "comfy seat"!

Should You Bother Obsessing Over True Crime Content?
How much true crime do you consume on a weekly basis? Because statistics would show there’s a 50% chance you consume at least some.
You twisted little pup xxx
But who could blame you. “Making a murderer”, “Dont F**k with Cats”, “Tiger King”. All unbelievable documentaries in a genre that continues to grow.
But what happens when you consume a little too much?
Does it have a negative impact on your mental health? Do you start to imagine every stranger you meet has skeletons in their closet?
And we’re talking real skeletons. Not embarrassing secrets like, “oh, that guy? Yea, he used to spend every evening playing with sock puppets before bed”.
Although.. that does sound like something a killer might do?
Other big question addressed: do people who become obsessed with true crime actually consider committing crime.. Or murder?
**GASP**
Listen in. We’re gonna answer all these things. And there’ll be no more talk of sock puppets! (Skeleton in the closet, remember).

Should You Bother Buying a Weighted Blanket?
Have you ever been tempted to buy a weighted blanket?
Maybe you’ve been living under a weighted rock and never heard of them. If so, the hint is in the name. They’re just regular blankets, but heavier.
“But how would you even clean a weighted blanket?” you might wonder. There's good reason you don’t wash your dumbbells in the washing machine.
“And what are the benefits of these blankets? Improved sleep? Anything else? Would they not be fu*kin roastin?”
We wondered the same things. So we bought one of said blankets for €24.99 to test out and help you decide if you should bother too.
(And to add it to the list of other “better night’s sleep miracles” we’ve already tried on the pod - mouth taping, magnesium, nasal strips etc.)
Oh and we also name some of the best weighted blankets. Because €24.99.. Did you really think that was top of the range?

Should You Bother Learning Witchcraft?
For between 1-2 million people, witchcraft isn’t just something that’s passively joked about at Halloween. It’s their religion.
Mic, fu*king, drop.
They’ve got dedicated witchcraft brooms and cauldrons and if you google, “witchcraft shop near me”, you’ll very likely find a place that sells all their supplies.
I know what you’re thinking: “wtf is going on? SO many questions!!”
But don’t worry, we’ll answer as many as we can as well as help you understand what it takes to learn witchcraft and if it’s something you should bother with.
Also, you don’t need to buy a witches hat or anything, but if you have one, wear it while you listen. You might as well look the part.
