I Don't Like Mondays

August 06, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/06 Oooh it's a long one today, and Guy has had too much coffee. This is a podcast about homilies, the inherent absurdity of existence (again), what a square number is, and also the brieftest of forays into what exactly constitutes a shitpost vs a troll. We also read a letter from a listener, and eventually talk about Garfield.

August 05, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/05 In which the concept of content is discussed at great length, Catherine leaves Guy alone to read hobo slang, many interruptions are suffered, and Jon Arbuckle looks off his blimmin' rocker. I quite like this episode, you know?

August 04, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/04 In this episode, we invent an imaginary improv troupe to get mad at, Guy reveals the agony of being jeered at by tree children, the bin men come, and we discuss the concept of moving Grange Hill to a submarine. Also, at last, Garfield is discussed. Sorry for the delay in this episode! There was a visit from Big Depression The Malaise Ape...

August 03, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/03 A shocking revelation regarding the introduction of the show. An extended and sincere conversation about media literacy. Catherine's increasing belligerence. 3d sausage fighting games. Shaving foam. A grown woman crying with laughter because of a grape. All this and more in the most obvious container for these notions: A Garfield Podcast...

August 02, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/02 Forty five episodes. That's so many. And yet here we are, Garfield persists. Older than us and as changeable and unchanging as the seas. He will be here long after we're gone. I hadn't really considered that before I started typing this and now I feel funny. The existential breakdowns usually happen during the episode, not after it. This...

August 01, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/08/01 It's warm, and Catherine would like a Calippo. On today's foolishness we cover the comparative adaptability of sandwiches vs baked potatoes, the potential names of ersatz Dr Pepper syrups, and which musicals would be improved with the addition of a Ray Mears. Meanwhile, Garfield scratches a chair.

July 31, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/31 It is currently too hot to record a podcast, and yet here we are. In this episode, a game of 20 questions is played, another is attempted and withers on the vine, Catherine inflicts untold psychic damage on Guy by introducing herself as...you'll just have to listen and see. Good grief. We also mention Garfield, I suppose.

July 30, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/30 It's Garfield, but...cute! Our whole world is turned upside down. By which I mean we talk absolute nonsense for forty five minutes before grumpily looking at a cartoon cat. Also discussed: Coffins, Spider Activity, and Wubsay. If you're reading this, you are a patreon! That means you are Cool and Good and we really appreciate you.

July 29, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/29 Coming hot off the back of two genuinely funny comics is...this one. Great. It's not a good one, folks. However, we also discuss: Why my father drove an ice-cream van (it is the answer you are thinking of), Homosexual Meals, and using a tube to assist a fart.

July 28, 1978, https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/28 Episode 40! Goodness we've done a lot of these, and WHAT a strip to mark our 40th episode! It's a follow-on strip to one of the most famous Garfield comics, and it is genuinely bloody hilarious. Seriously. I laughed out loud. As did Cat. This strip is great. Also covered: How many arms should a starfish have, what if burgers were money, a...

July 27, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/27 Well. Here it is. Episode 39. Covering one of the most famous strips in the Garfield canon. Suspense. Intrigue. A pipe. Does the strip hold up? Does Guy understand cricket? Would an actual ape be a blessing or a curse for the cast of Coronation Street? All these questions and more are answered by two idiots who really should know better. I...

July 26, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/26 A cat? Eating a human breakfast? Goodness me no, that doesn't sound right at all! How unusual! How wacky! How very much worth an hour of your time. This episode also features: More Ghosts, Foreshadowing, A Petition To Stop Hornyposting, and Unexpected Citrus Interactions. None of this podcast constitutes medical advice. Obviously.

July 25, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/25 We're back! Thank you for your patience as Cat recovered from Actual Surgery! Episode 37, as you may expect, goes all round the god damn houses. Cat takes a wee break in which Guy describes clown ham and is visited by actual ghosts, the hosts of the podcast refuse to give their names, and a naughty cat does a climb. I Don't Like Mondays. T...

July 24, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/24 Here we are! Episode 36! A weirdly soulless strip that feels much more like a representation of a sitcom than an actual comic. We also discuss commercialism, getting a chimp drunk, and whether a giraffe could limbo. We reckon it can't.

July 23, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/23 What IF a cat do a dog do? What if a cat doglike naughty be? What if a cat go at a car and do a dog do at a milkman? What if? Also: Extended thoughts on clowning, extended clowns on thoughting, further matrimonial disrespect, and one too many easy peelers.

July 22, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/22 The perfect storm of Garfield-podcast-recording-preventing! Drilling! A legit two and a half day break in the recording! See if you can notice where it happens! Also covering: Blockbuster, Porkies 1 & 2, hooting, talk radio, and Garfield. We quite like this comic tbh. It's worth a look.

July 21, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/21 Experiments in force compression, Would You Buy A Painting Of A Dog, and a brief discussion on how and what Transformers eat. That's right, it's another episode of I Don't Like Mondays, the Garfield Podcast.

July 20, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/20 Episode 32 and this is a rude cat's food spat. Discover what Cat thinks living with Guy is like, reminisce about The Addams Family, and explore a comic where each individual panel is lovely, and yet the whole thing feels slightly flat. We also introduce the idea of our upcoming patreon exclusive show! What a life!

https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/19 July 19, 1978 Join Guy and Cat as they become genuinely unsettled by an unpleasant orange cat. Additional nonsenses include: *What would be taught at Garfield University *Reasons for Bill Murray's actions *Ham Tank

https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/18 July 18, 1978 My god. Episode thirty! Thirty of these! Naturally, we've pushed the boat out. Not gonna lie. This one is a slow burner. After the first half hour or so it really gets going though. Well. For a given value of going. Shrek, Bland Food, The Music Of Queen, Ikea, and more!

July 17, 1978 - https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/17 What toys were the reserve of rich kids? Does coffee taste like soil? What do crabs expect? These are but some of the questions answered in this episode of I Don't Like Mondays, a podcast by people who really should know better.

July 16, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/16 Hello folks! We're back, and we're ready to help you boil some eggs. This episode contains Cat's post-LARP Mariella Frostrup(p?) voice, two (count 'em, two!) incidents where the recording stopped, and also some talk about Garfield. This was supposed to sound better, now that it's being recorded on a new PC and with new software. What actua...

July 15, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/15 A podcast you can boil an egg to. This episode we talk about Brecht, iconoclasm, and lasagna. Catherine also gets irrationally annoyed at a man with tiny bicycles, and Guy cannot remember a word for a full two minutes. Yet more great content from everyone's favourite This. This isn't the youtube video we mentioned, but it did make Cat refl...

July 14, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/14 Time loop paradoxes, Ken Dodd, and curly cucumber sandwiches. We also, intermittently, talk about a cat.

July 13, 1978 https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/07/13 From the title, you might think that this strip involves a man flushing a toilet. Or a man. Or a toilet. It involves none of these. And yet here we are. Guy is once again dragged to hell and back by his wife, Films are Discussed, and the idea of Spam in porridge is briefly mooted before being dismissed. What more could you POSSIBLY need?
