The only trouble is there's a bit of echo in the early part of the show but hey if you made it past Episode 22 - or even heard any part of that show - you've got absolutely nothing to worry about. Anyway, after discussing horses (and the recent Grand National horse race) for some reason, we hip hop right into Mat's Hip Hop Corner with his tweets of the week from various hip-hop luminaries and wannabes. Here's the official 18+ video Mat mentions, 'All Over the House' from the UK rapper Skepta. (SERIOUSLY NSFW (NOT SAFE FOR WORK) It's got lots of boobz in it, YouTube won't host the actual video as IT'S NSFW it so it's on another site. For some video grabs (rather than the full XXXXXX-worthy video - STILL NSFW), chiggity check it below. Skepta ft. Majestic & Shorty - All Over The House found on Hip-Hop (please note we're really not going to turn into a crappy porn-rap video review show! we have a little more class than that) Then we attempt to compare the US and UK hip-hop scenes. Which isn't all that funny so we cut that crap out. This might honestly be the last time we try the US/UK comparisons! But we contrast that with talking about Mat's really really white children. So it's all swings and roundabouts, as the Brits say.It just means 'things have a way of balancing themselves out, old chap, don't you know'.

The head features flexible plastic pieces that resemble the closed bud of a flower. Pry the petals apart, insert a wad of toilet paper or a moist wipe, and it's as if your arm has just grown a foot longer. Reach back (from in front or behind), wipe, and then press the release button on the handle to drop the soiled paper into the toilet. (OK, fair enough, it's also extremely helpful for people with injuries and medical conditions. But still. Frank has seen it on sites devoted to extraordinarily obese people.) Thanks to Dr Jax at muus.co.uk for the Dalek-voiced DP samples! Very cool. Can you count how many samples were used during this show? Seriously, can you? We sort of lost count. And finally, a horse with one ball isn't called anything, according to what a quick Wikipedia scan brings up. A castrated male horse is  called a gelding, though (don't scroll down that page if you're a guy).   Listen to this episode right here!   This is how Mat taunts his cat - with pictures of other cats free from cones and able to roam freely and pee in their master's shoes.

A customer pulls in, fills up and goes inside to ask for his free sex. The owner says 'Pick a number, and if you guess right you get the free sex.' The customer says, 'OK...seven!' The owner says, 'Sorry, the number was five, you'll have to try next time.' A couple of weeks later, the same customer drives up with a friend in the car, fills up and goes inside. The owner tells him the same thing, and this time the customer guesses three. 'Nope, sorry, the number was four today - just one number off!' The customer goes back to his car and tells his friend, 'You know what? That free sex offer is rigged, there's no way that guy gives away free sex.' The man's friend says, 'No, that's not true actually - my wife won free sex twice last week!'

That 'One' is spelled out not to be pretentious, but to just be posh. Is there any difference, though? We're not sure. This is the first of the much-anticipated DP Films series, which is going to show how Mat and Frank work on ideas for a short film (from 5-15 minutes or so). It's not a movie review show, it just kind of tracks the DP Films progress in the making of 'film shorts', as 'we in the business' calm them. So this one is a bit windy with plenty of banter, but it is about us making movies, basically. Download Episode 1 of the DP Films podcast here!   It's a long one (just over 50 minutes) but it is the first in the series and there's a lot of challenging stuff to get through! As for that director that didn't want to have his name on a famous movie...that guy is named Walter Hill and the movie is Supernova, which Francis Ford Coppola was brought in to save. Then he was involved in writing and producing the third and fourth Alien movies, a series of which Frank is a big fan of...until it was screwed up by this guy. Anyway, check it out on Wikipedia, the last 2 paragraphs. And here's that said bastard who is the fan of the Japanese electropop girl trio Perfume, doing his now-infamous 'Happy Birthday Kashiyuka !!' video [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=UpGBaeFxigk#t=95s] (somehow I don't think the recently re-uploaded video with notes on the bottom will wipe the craziness clean!) Unfortunately this guy uses the pseudonym 'Frank Evins', which is just terrible because all the strangest people on TV are called 'Frank'...but we'll roll with it. Want to know more? Check out the story on Know Your Meme. Eventually, Mat and Frank get down to business and read the outline for what might be the first-ever DP script... Just a warning! It is dark. And we mean Dark with a capital 'D'. Like...DARK. Is it too much? Is it too dark? Is it just a few steps beyond? We're not really sure.

Digital Porridge Episode 1   This is kind of a big deal for us, so we would really appreciate it if you would give it a listen. If you are feeling *really* generous, get in touch to tell us what you think! Since this is our very first show, we decided to share the behind-the-scenes process of how we're starting up the project, starting with its name. Episode #1 starts off with a discussion of whether we will be cursing in the show, whether we will even be funny, then a crazy story from Mat. We finish off with a good discussion about what we will call the podcast and our project, then Mat cannot remember a word and finally we settle on a name. Can you guess what it is?!
