First 90 secondsTom Davis· Host0:00
[singing] Yo. Yo, what you want? Beak or jaws? Feathers or fur? Sharp teeth or feet with claws? Whatever's preferred. Just kidding, every word in this song's about two grown men dressed up as a bird and a dog.

Welcome to the Wolf And Owl email special. Uh, full disclosure, we're recording this straight after- The hot chip challenge ... the main episode where we did a hot chip challenge. Although we didn't do the full hot chip challenge. We ate probably, what?
Tom Davis· Host0:27
I literally had a nibble of it- I would say a qua- a quarter between us ... and I'm in pieces here. Like, you're, you're... By the way, my respect for you is fucking... You were incredible.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host0:35
I was incredible, actually.
Tom Davis· Host0:36
That was one of the coolest things I've ever seen you do.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host0:38
Um, and it's a low bar. [exhales] But w- are you all right?
Tom Davis· Host0:42
No, I literally might... It's like, you know, like a bird.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host0:45
Yeah. What do you mean?
Tom Davis· Host0:46
Like, as soon as it, a bird eats, it needs a shit.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host0:47
Do you really feel like you need... Like, do you feel like you could shit right now?
Tom Davis· Host0:50
Yeah, like a fucking fiery big shit. [laughs] It's like I'm in bits. Like, I'm loathe to make two episodes in a row- [laughs] ... where that becomes a main part of content, but I'm literally in absolute pieces. [laughs] Such acid reflux. Like, I can't stop, like... [laughs] I sort of feel like I'm just gonna be sat there for the whole of us like that.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host1:13
Okay, should we do some emails?
Tom Davis· Host1:15
For Weekend at Bernie's.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host1:16
Oh, it's not nice when it moves into your stomach, is it?
Tom Davis· Host1:19
No. My tongue, my esophagus, everything's... It's ruffled everything in my body. [exhales] It's... And you've not even had any milk.
Romesh Ranganathan· Host1:28
I'm trying to delay it as long as possible.
