In this episode, our heroes come to the realisation that with dear Kyle moving to the ol' USA and dear Rob's doing whatever weird shit it is he does, that time between the two lads is now at a premium. 2manypodcasts is coming to an end. Will it last forever? Nobody knows. So for legal, moral and convenience reasons the line is "we're going on a hiatus" - much like The Thrills - who should actually never reform. They began the podcast as a protest that there's too many (and usually really shit) podcasts. So they decided not to help and add one more because there is too many podcasts and call it 2manypodcasts, which for those of you who aren't familiar is a play on the Belgian DJ duo 2manydjs. Who are actually deadly. For Belgians anyways (which isn't a real country). So of all the interesting little bits - q&a's, ChipAdvisor (a review of chips - or fries as they say in the Dakotas), and general shenanigans, it was a genuinely intriguing listen for the average layman. So much so, the podcast was officially (at one point anyways) the 37th most popular podcast in Ireland of the improv comedy genre. Is that good? Kyle and dear Rob certainly hope not. Stop listening to podcasts basically, will youse? So thank you to all of the dear listeners, a couple thousand of you no less, and all our guests - from Johnny Spillz to the bloke from the Arctic Monkeys, dear Kyle and Rob mon cherie thank you and for now, our heroes bid you adieu, or whatever it is people say to be fancy. 2manypodcasts is on hiatus as of now. Will our heroes say "Kyle, we're back" again? Maybe, baby. Maybe. 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

In this dear episode, and let's be frank, it bloody well is a dear episode, our heroes make no reference to St. Patrick's Day, or as Kyle incorrectly calls it now, St. Patty's Day. USA! USA! USA! No, instead Rob (mon cherie) thought of 38 quick fire, but important questions to put to Texas' latest resident legend - and no, I am not talking about Matthew McConaughey, George W. Bush, or the bloke in ZZ Top - no I am talking about dear Kyle. Listen, there are better and worse ways to spend a half an hour. And we envisage this will kill a half an hour for you whilst you, say, drive to work, or perhaps lying on a hospital bed getting a bone popped back into it's socket. I don't know. We don't know. We don't want to know. We're busy. Love you. Music at the end is Circus by The Swedish Railway Orchestra.

In this dear and well articulated episode, our heroes discuss all the going on in world matters such as the technique dear Rob uses when he showers (spoiler alert: its pretty odd). Dear Kyle mon cherie found his local boozer in Texas which has a barman called dear Kyle also and he shares the same birthday. I think. I can't remember what was said, I was watching telly. But it's something along those lines. Also, dear Rob has a PSA for all men relating to their Crown Jewels while dear Kyle reckons he's gonna be Dallas' next indie dj by playing The Wolfe Tones et al. And you know what? He will. Song at the end is Once Upon A Time In Palestine by The Swedish Railway Orchestra, available here: https://www.blowtorchrecords.com/product-page/swedish-railway-orchestra-once-upon-a-time-vinyl-lp 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

In this dear episode of 1 of season 2, we can say "Kyle, we're back". But dear Kyle isn't back, he has in fact left, from an Irish perspective anyways. He's collected his gatherings and moved to the great state of Texas in the United States of America in search of the American Dream and to find clues to finally solve the assassination of John F. Kennedy in Dallas in 1963, being the sleuth that he is, if you will. Will you? You probably will you dirty fecker, won't you? Dear Rob spent half the podcast promoting an upcoming album which is both embarrassing and smart, all the while discussing his recent penalty points fiasco on New Years Eve. I'm embarrassed. WE'RE embarrassed. There's also a very short trivia quiz due to popular demand. Kyle, we are back!!! The song at the end is Once Upon A Time In Palestine, by The Swedish Railway Orchestra, taken from the forthcoming album Once Upon A Time... available here: https://the-swedish-railway-orchestra.lnk.to/OUAT 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

Dear listener. We have finished season 1 of 2manypodcasts. Now it's time to reflect upon what has happened. Okay, that time is over. Dear Kyle gives us an update as he, at time of podcast-being-released is moving to the Dallas region. That's in Texas, where ZZ Top and St Vincent are from. We shall return for season 2 at some point. Happy xmas, new year and remember - dolphins cannot tune guitars. www.2manypodcasts.com 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

The Edge, or The as he likes to be known, makes a quick appearance where dear Kyle asks him about the time he blocked the road in town before. The guitarist addresses these claimsand dear Kyle is embarrassed. Or is he? Also in this episode dear Rob is in Barcelona for the 350th time this year were he was doing recording and some exceptional DJing which earned him some incredible criticism from the club venue's owner. Majestic complaints of heroic proportions. Elsewhere other things are discussed. No idea what. Something to do with the World Series in regional US sports. But let's be honest, you would have switched off by then. And if you haven't, then you should've. As it were. Were it? It were. 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

In this bloody well great episode of 76 - our first in weeks I should point out and indeed have - dear Rob went to the noble Scandinavian country of Norway to discover the bear situation is way out of control as a percentage of the population get eaten by wild bears every year allegedly. Now, I say allegedly because dear Rob claims this is true. I have my doubts and you should too. Also, dear Kyle has a medical to join the USA on a permanent transfer but reckons he'll run for office to try stop the banning of disposable vapes. He reckons just ban the smokes, but keep the vape. Now he may have a point and you may or may not agree. That's your own business. Listen, you're welcome. Also they discuss other things. I think something about shower etiquette was involved. Can't remember. Oh yeah, Kyle sold his bike and had a big haggle with the guy buying - who came from Monasterevin. What else happened? Hmmm....I know David Beckham was involved in the conversation. He wasn't in the convo, but he was discussed. Becks wouldn't come on the show. But you know who would? Phil Babb. What's he up to lately anyways? 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

In this dear episode of 75, Kyle has decided not to get a tattoo of Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys in case he turns out be an asshole. It's a wise move. I mean they discuss other stuff, but I can only remember that bit. Oh yeah - also dear Kyle is selling his shit. But shit, we mean just his bike that he didn't steal. As he stated on his ad here: https://www.adverts.ie/31535146 Now check out his sale history - giving books away for free etc. I reckon if you put in a small offer for the bike he'll take it. Sure he's moving to Texas anyways. The great state of Texas if you will? Will you? I bloody hope so. Look, we can do a good episode description - we just choose not to. 2manypodcasts is now defunct.

Dear listeners. As I'm sure you're aware, the previous episode was number 72. But for obvious reasons we can't do episode 73 - out of respect (or 'dear respect' as we like to say), so we're skipping straight to episode 74. I'm sure you can understand. This is a righteous episode of manic shit such as not one but two public service announcements regarding boozing. On that note, we deliver an update with Kyle's moving-to-Dallas situation such as "how are you gonna serve Guinness in the lone star state?" Also Kyle divulges some information about his next door neighbour's Instagram etiquette and it's fucked up. Not fucked up as in doing something illegal such as gun running or bootlegging scotch, but fucked up nonetheless. It's also totally pointless. Such is the bit about tattoo regret. But such is most things in life. I mean, when the sun becomes a red giant in approx 3.5 billion years and ends the earth as we know it, what will be left? No survivors but recordings of lads on podcasts who may or may not like their tattoos. Live in the moment, people. Live in the now!!! But most importantly our heroes discover that other podcasts - particularly Irish podcasts - are ABSOLUTELY FUCKING SHIT. There are too many podcasts and, you know what? We know we're not helping. Music at the outro is The Freaks Come Out At Night by The Swedish Railway Orchestra. Rob, mon cherie, made it. We can't afford to license other music, sorry. 2manypodcasts is now defunct.
