In this week’s episode of the Vodscarf we welcome social media sensation Jack Skipper and Egyptian Egyptologist Dr. Arto Belekdanian to the studio for an hour of pure, unadulterated history and anti-comedy. Things get incredibly weird, incredibly fast. Watch as Harry’s mum calls from a warzone just because she wanted to buy him some birthday pants from Debenhams, Sarah the AI Bot experiences a severe existential crisis before being miraculously cured by Dr. Pimple Popper, and witness Jack Skipper risking his entire reputation in the elite biscuit community by guessing the contents of rusted metal tins.
