Wood Wehn In The Membrane

Merry Christmas and thanks for being with us in 2025.  In this episode, it gets serious as Jake delves deep into his parenting experiences.  Henning tells us how his local vicar hates Christmas and the podcast ends with a beautiful rendition of Silent Night, in German, that will set you right for the festive period whatever your attitude towards it might be.  Next week it's CALENDARS Follow t...

The Countdown to Christmas is very much upon us, and after some musings about their careers, it's onto the topic of PRESENTS.

There may be no way back as Henning & Jake come close to falling out over the topic of VEGANS ! Henning is one, Jake isn't. But the big takeaway from this episode is...what IS a burger?  Back next week with a festive topic...PRESENTS...if the boys are still talking...

If you could live with just one, would you chose Radio or TV...that and other questions partially answered in this episode of WWITM, all about RADIO.  Jake and Henning are vague on the technology but are certainly ALL IN on the subject and there are very few diversions and even fewer conclusions.  Coming up next VEGANS !

WARNING: ACTUAL INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE ABOUT YOGA IN THIS EPISODE With only some deviations about watching Hastings United and drinking, the boys break down YOGA, something they are both very much in favour of. Namaste! Next week...RADIO Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane 

R.E.S.P.E.C.T find out what it means to me, asks Jake, while Henning muses that he wouldn't make a very good scaffolder. Jake offers up some EASTENDERS memorabilia for anyone who comments or reviews the podcast and there is some surprise about the things that people queue up to buy in shops in York and London. Jake also tells us "As you go through life you realise that no one has a clue...

Henning and Jake go deep this week and consider the subject of DOUBT. It's a wide topic and the boys also talk Fear, Vertigo, Alton Towers, Wycombe Wanderers and selling tickets for the O2 Arena.  Plus there is insight into the Germany University Education system and outrunning hungry tigers.  What shall Henning and Jake discuss next week?  Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and...

Henning and Jake take on the topic of TEETH in this episode of WWITM, and it's fun all the way as the dynamic duo talk about their fascinating history of dental work. We learn the German for 'Milk Teeth" and if you search our social channels you will see the clip where Henning thinks that gold teeth are great. There is also some debate on the pros and cons of 'Turkey Teeth&apos...

Henning and Jake are back with another topic and it is COMICS !  The sort you read rather than stand-up... 2000 AD and Viz both get a massive thumbs up from the boys and there is much enthusiasm for the subject, and a bit of digression to ponder the Only Fools and Horses Convention in Hastings.  Next week...TEETH Maybe we will do an episode on REVIEWS or COMMENTS in which case maybe you should rev...

Henning and Jake are back with a deep dive into the topic of GARDENS...and they both love them! Henning attempts a joke about Kew Gardens which, much like the aircraft above the London horticultural wonder, flies well over Jake's head, and he vows to not try that again.  NEXT WEEK the topic is a bit different, but the quest for common ground successfully continues as the lads celebrate their...

CARS is the topic. Henning is sceptical but agrees they are needs, but Jake won't believe half the things he claims, so please google about the Paris thing yourselves.  Back next week with the subject of GARDENS Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane 

SCIENTISTS PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN  Henning & Jake are back for another topic, and it's the MOON! The lads speculate on whether there is was ever a moon landing, Jake is shocked by the amount of men that have supposedly walked on the moon and there is some speculation on whether the sun is more important and tides and stuff. It's an episode full of fun, but very few facts. Hit us up on...

The topic is PLUGS although plug enthusiasts be warned, there is not that much about plugs in this episode. But Jake does have some actually facts about plugs.  There is discussion about moon landings, baths versus showers, Viz comic and a why Henning thinks living in England is a "right laugh" Back next week with another cracking subject.  Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram...

The sweetest of all podcasts as Jake & Henning open, then close the book on SUGAR.  There is plenty of speculation and general opinions about sugar but not much you'd describe as information or facts, although Jake does read out what Wikipedia has to say on the topic. And Henning tells us about the time he was in a French hospital pretending to be English. Next week...PLUGS which will be...

Take 2 !! Jake & Henning are back to talk about something that happens to us all...Aging! It's the second attempt to tackle the topic as Henning ruled that the first recording was awful and insisted on giving it another go. It turns out he was right. The first try will NEVER be heard. Maybe one day sound archivists will discover it on Simon's computer or on the giant Zoom server in S...

We believe this is the first ever podcast about the topic of BENCHES, and it is a subject that will almost certainly not be repeated. Jake and Henning look at benches and their many uses, but no one was prepared for the rather dark turn this podcast takes around three quarters in.  This episode replaces the previously adverted episode about AGING because Henning didn't like that one. But don&...

Or is its PAJAMAS? However you spell it, Jake and Henning are here to take a deep delve into PJs.  The boys try to decide when is it acceptable to wear them and come up with a partial answer.  Next week...the topic is AGE which is a pretty neat segue between podcasts if you listen to the end of this one, which you should. It's only just about 20 minutes long. Follow the lads and suggest topic...

WARNING: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS SCARY STUFF THAT LISTENERS MAY FIND DISTRESSING Jake and Henning are back to discuss things that go bump in the night!...is there something or someone out there? Are we surrounded by spirits and ghosts? Will you get any answers from this podcast?  The boys recount their own supernatural experiences, and tells tories, some of which you may have heard before if you are...

Henning disputes Jake's stats that suggest Germans drink more tea than Brits. But they do. There is some chat about Tea alternatives but the podcast is mainly Jake getting worked up about a British Tea advert from the seventies that Henning has never seen. Approximately 7 minutes of this part of the podcast was edited out, but it is still most off the podcast.  Forthcoming topics include Teet...

To think that this, or any episode of WWITM, may not have ever happened had their childhood holiday mishaps had rather more negative outcomes, but Jake and Henning are survivors so are here to talk about 'Holidays'. Henning isn't much for them while Jake loves going on holiday almost as much as going home.  Enjoy! Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthem...

Jake & Henning are back to take on the subject of 'Globes' and we learn a lot in what is being hailed as "the best episode of WoodWehn in the Membrane so far" by some of the greatest producers in audio and radio. We learn the Jake owns a large part of Saturn and of a time travel mix-up down under, and that Henning has very little to offer when Jake enquires about gravity. Y...

WE HAVE A WEBSITE! It's woodwehn.com ...And 'Hope' is the topic of this episode of WWITM as Jake & Henning chat around the topic and try to decide whether it is a good or a bad thing. In between Henning takes us to a religious escapade near Euston station while Jake says that as an Arsenal fan it is, indeed, the hope that kills you. Back next Monday ! Follow the lads and suggest...

Jake is applying for French citizenship so knee-deep in paperwork, but not too bust to spend 25 minutes talking to Henning about Mountains. The German Comedy Ambassador and former ski tour guide is surprisingly knowledgable about mountains, although he was responsible for the off piste near death of several Germans, but we can look back on it now and have a good laugh.  Henning also makes a decent...

In this episode the German Comedy Ambassador tries eagerly to pry into Jake's bank account while the actor reveals there is no parity in the earning power of Eastenders stars. It's all a bit awkward as money is one of the things that you just don't talk about but the boys mange to do so for nearly 25 minutes.  Taxes, health care, the stock market and gambling, all the fun stuff, is...

Henning and Jake return and TABLES are the subject, although there is really very little about tables after all. They are sitting at one though when they record this podcast.  On this episode, Henning is quick to point out the flaws in communism and Jake may have rumbled one of Britains most famous psychics. Neither have much to do with tables as such, but have a listen and see if you can figure o...
