Reliable Wi-Fi signal or be a sex god? That’s the question we are trying to answer. This episode of The Silliest Superest Heroest podcast focuses on silliness rather than superheroness. With a mishmash of moving parts Sam Lake and Huge Davies take a very loose definition of “super” whilst trying to come up with their hero. For a podcast that is supposedly about superheroes we spend a good chunk of time talking about Pokemon, Gladiators and Kangaroo vaginas.After a podcast recorded over zoom, I can confirm both Sam and Huge have reliable Wi-Fi but I am yet to find out whether they are sex gods. Follow the podcast @SuperestPod for updates on this as soon as I get them.Follow Sam here: @MrSamLake and you can listen to his podcast here: https://shows.acast.com/ive-had-a-rose-lets-talk-about-feelings-with-sam-lakeFollow Huge Here: @HugeDaviesAnd follow their comedy night @joymult where they are joined by the also fantastically funny Olga Koch and Chloe PettsAs ever you can email the show with questions/suggestions/complaints: SuperestPod@gmail.com
