This is the podcast Two Beards, One Hat. Each episode, we pull a topic each out of a hat, and are given two weeks to go away, research that topic, and come back to talk about it. Questions are asked. Bullshit is spoken. New episode every fortnight.
It's been 6 months since we last got together, so we decided to let you know that we're still alive. In this episode, sans hat, we talk about what's been going on with us during the pandemic. James gets angry about people wearing masks on their chin, and David recounts how he killed his shitake mushrooms by fervently overwatering them.

Episode 04 - Cats, and Walt Disney
In this episode, James tells us all about cats, from what a cat actually is (yes, he does explain this) to their numerous abilities and some interesting tales of them throughout history. Walt Disney is the topic for David. Find out whether or not he was cryogenically frozen and left in a pod beneath the Pirates of the Carribean ride, how he helped found the Motion Picture Alliance, and if he did really inform for the FBI about communists in Hollywood. There's also pizza, and we spill the tea on our favourite Disney film.
