Two Guys One Topic
Education Podcasts
We help you learn lots of topics!
The aim: To have a conversation with anyone about anything.
This can be a really useful skill to have and something you can use in all aspects of your day to day life. Be that at the pub with friends, during a job interview, or speaking with your boss at work.
In this podcast we will cover a wide range of topics. We will hopefully introduce you to new topics, books or concepts that we think will be useful to learn.
So you know we are not experts in the subjects we cover, we have one week to read and research the topic.
This is then a summary of the research and reading we have done.
We do the hard work, then share what we think is the most useful information for you to know!
Once you have listened we would love to hear your thoughts or any feedback.

Bermuda Triangle

This week's topic is the Listener Choice episode, which has been chosen by Laura.
Thank you to everyone who sent us topic suggestions. We put them to a vote on Instagram and the Bermuda Triangle won (by a long way!).
The Bermuda Triangle is a place of real mystery that is the location for hundreds of people vanishing on ships or in planes, but why?
Why do so many people succumb to this aquatic graveyard?
What an interesting topic to learn about - thank you for the topic suggestion Laura.

Duty Free Shopping
9/5/2023
This week's topic is Liam's choice and he has chosen - Duty Free Shopping
Sometimes, we stop by the duty-free shop because we think we are getting a deal. Other times, we are bored before our flights and just want to kill some time...
Yet again, another one of those topics that a lot of people will have heard of, but not know too much about!
Where it started if going to stay with us forever!

Accents
8/29/2023
This week's topic is Accents.
Sometimes accents are so dissimilar that two speakers, of the same language, with different accents can’t even understand one another, but how and why do we have them?
Disclaimer* Ollie and Liam try doing some impressions of accents - with mixed success. Definitely no offence meant!

Greggs
8/22/2023
This week's topic is Greggs.
In case you don't know, it's a chain based in the United Kingdom that's basically half-bakery, half-sandwich shop. It made its name as a place to get decent, cheap grub such as bakes, pasties, sausage rolls, and donuts, and is particularly associated with the north of England, where it is a very, very popular place indeed.

Televisions
5/16/2023
This week's topic is Ollie's choice and he has chosen - Televisions.
Not television as in T.V programmes but the black box we all stare at.
The television is something we take for granted these days. Almost every household has one and it plays an important part in everyday life.
While it might seem like the television doesn’t do much except broadcast TV networks, it provides us with information and entertainment 24/7.
How this invention works is mind-boggling too!
What an interesting topic to learn about!
