A comedy podcast where a bunch of friends discuss the questions you never even knew you needed an answer to until you heard them.
If you enjoy shows like QI or No Such Thing as a Fish and want an alternative where the truth is important, but the random banter more so; this is the place for you.
Educational? ... Occasionally.
Irreverent? ... Usually.

What is Who Takes the Socks Off? about?
It's about anything and everything. From NASA's hatred of corned beef to Christmas traditions to Cats thinking we're shit tigers. Each episode a question is answered even if no one needed it. We have a few laughs, play a few games and see where the subject takes us. Nothing is scripted, we just go with where our research (or lack of on Ross' part) goes

Episode 37 - Is Extra Virgin Olive Oil Just a Massive Prick Tease?
Who Takes the Socks Off?
02/05/24 • 57 min
How has extra virgin olive oil managed to stay so untouched for so long? Is it just that no one wan't to go all the way with it, or that there's more to it?
While we're on the subject what other food myths are there? (Yes, we know olives being virgin isn't exactly a myth)
Will an apple tree grow in your tummy if you swallow your chewing-gum with some waspy-figs?
All this and more answered in this months episode, yes it's a bit late, sorry, along with our now legendary game: "Sock or Crock", and a whistling debut (as he couldn't manage to perform last episode) for Captain Awkward!

We're back for a one-off special... maybe... maybe we'll do more... who knows!? Certainly not us, but in this very special episode we delve deeper into a topic we covered previously and give our thoughts on which fake (and not so fake) sports should be included in the Olympic games; some of which are definitely not for the feint-hearted ... or prudes!
Who Takes the Socks Off is a fortnightly podcast where a group of friends answer the questions you never knew you needed answering until you heard them.

Who Takes the Socks Off?
02/26/24 • 94 min
"Come on Granny, show us how to suck eggs again" they all cried!
Yes, sucking eggs is an obvious pastime for octogenarians. So much so in fact they made a saying about it. The question is, how did all this imbibing of unfertilised chicken ovulation begin?
Join us, along with out very special guests; Rob & TJ from the Channel 84 Variety Show, to find out!

Episode 42 - How on earth did the author of The Human Centipede successfully pitch their idea to Hollywood?
Who Takes the Socks Off?
06/28/24 • 79 min
It's infamous and yet somehow it made it past the Hollywood executives.
The Human Centipede is without doubt one of the more messed up films to get to the masses but how did it come about? Why did it come about? And, has anyone actually watched all 3?
An extended version of this episode is available to all monthly Ko-Fi subscribers (link at the bottom of this metadata) featuring an extra 25 minutes of content and starting at just £1 a month!
Join us and our guests; Jim and Sam from the Cast-a-role Podcast, as we delve into the films and try to work out what on earth they were thinking!
All this plus the usual fun with world record corner, "Sock or Crock" and a new game specially commissioned for this episode: "Pitch it Good, Pitch it Real Good", where we each try to pitch a good-bad film to the others and see if anyone can guess what it is.
For more of this episode you can find an extended episode on our Ko-Fi, which has an additional 25+ minutes of content!! Starting at just £1 a month.

Who Takes the Socks Off?
07/19/24 • 20 min
Welcome to the new short-form outing from your favourite socks!

In this episode we're joined by the wonderful Karen from The Lightly Used Podcast.
So let's spin the wheel and see what sort of trouble we can get into!

Horoscopes! Insight into the celestial futures or just a load of old bollocks?
Can they sum up a twelfth of the population into handy bite size snippets of benality?
Whether you are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius or Pisces, we have some information for you, and, quite frankly, more giggling that you could wave Mystic Meg's psychic stick at!
With our very special, and inspirational, guest; the one and only Bon Allen giving us Edna Modes, shagging dogs and more, why on earth would you want to miss out on this laugh-fest?
I mean, you wouldn't right!?

Podcast Q&A
Why did you start this show?
We used to have many a conversation in our office before the bosses arrived and got annoyed with us. These ranged in content from flat earthers to Trigger's broom to who takes the socks off amputated feet at the hospital, which as you can probably guess is how our podcast got its name. We would often end up crying with laughter which is why decided, you know what, we should record this rubbish. So that's what we did and we think it turned out pretty well. Hopefully you will too.
What do you hope listeners gain from listening to your show?
Some laughs, a little education in places and some insight into just how bizzare some of our thought processes are
Which episode should someone start with?
We think Season 2 is the place to start. Season 1 was us finding our feet and the personnel changed often between a large group of us. Season 2 saw us bedding down a core band of members with the flow and finish being much better.
Which have been your favourite episodes so far?
Why did they take all the Dicks and Fannys out of books is probably one of our best as we were joined by the guys from Pit of Chimps podcast
Which episode are you most proud of?
All of them, well most of them... some of them are ok. There's a couple.
What is your vision for your show?
To continue to answer the question no one needs us to, perhaps at some point even do it regularly again who knows!!
What is your favourite other podcast that isn't yours?
Pit of Chimps is great - they guys are a couple of surreal geniuses
How did you come up with the name for your podcast?
It was one of the questions we came up with in the morning at the office
Tell us a bit about yourself
We are... Ross - Our host with the most. aka the Erminator Thomas - captain awkward Simon - The Pedant and Andy.... yeah just Andy really... not one for nicknames We're 4 friends who feel the need to share our random conversations based loosely around a question of choice - questions that most people in their right mind just wouldn't think of
