This week the Idiots tackle the beautiful ungainly beast that is Fyodor Dostoyevsky's final novel, The Brothers Karamazov. Topics covered in our wide-ranging, all-singing, all-dancing conversation include Dan's brief unsuccessful time as a farmer, Subway's use of complex mathematical proofs to upsell sandwiches, why Friends works better when it's in French and an unfortunate realisation as to what the show's catchphrase is. Today's episode is sponsored by the Pistache Child Rehousing Project, helping to rehouse kids no matter what their parents have to say about it.
