Description

Jake Johnson (New Girl, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop) don't feel qualified to give strangers good advice. Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help.  Each episode, the guys make several pitches to callers (whose questions range from trivial to serious) with their best attempts of advice. They can't promise their suggestions will be perfect, but it will be the best they've got.  Jake and Gareth also occasionally bring on a friend, peer or even an expert to help along the way.

I know G&J are trying to make them conversational but 8 solid minutes of ads in the middle is just too much! Great podcast otherwise

A really good podcast. Regularly makes me laugh out loud on the bus to work. That 3 & half minute ad break in the middle lasts sooo long though!

On the one hand, it is because the mentor already has a corresponding research foundation in this area, which is relatively easy to guide and can also avoid detours. On the other hand, choosing a supervisor’s research direction can make a relatively marginal contribution to the supervisor and better cater to their taste.
