My favourite Theo thing is when he accidentally reveals a messed up behaviour or opinion he thinks is normal or fine. Like on the recent episode where he says he has driven a car while wearing headphones or Bathtube-Gazpacho where he said he thinks it would be fine to eat on the toilet if it was pre-shitting.
It's probably my favourite episode that I suggest for non-listeners.
Ben starts with a Nazi Cowboy intro that is thankfully very short. All 4 of them are there. It has a nothing to report report about ATM theft, The Poll/Pole Report about secret spots to eat food, a great asking doctor lucy about eating a massive midnight feast at your parents in laws, and the Lancashire poo jogger.
It's a real intersection of them being both funny and weird. It won't scare them away like Theo's I'm a Train opening but also you get a feel for what you're signing up for.
Otherwise the one where Devon from KJB comes on to talk about beating children's cartoon characters with a lead pipe is another banger, especially for fans of KJB/trash future extended universe.
It's EPISODE 243: Bathtub Gazpacho.
Also my general suggestion for new readers is to start with the first episode of a year and work forward. Because you get something about the Netherlands and Fireworks which is always funny and then they often make a lot of call-backs to previous recent episodes.

I keep calling it Boonta Vista Socialist Club when suggesting it to people despite the long form name getting
'd ages ago. If they're willing to listen to a podcast with the word "Socialist" in the title, they're probably fine with increasingly long segments like armpit farts or The Bill's theme song with gunshots
