About the show

The Apple of Truth is a bi-weekly podcast that covers every episode of Dirk Gently, where we try to figure out the web of sexy coinci-dink and learn how everything and nothing is connected.

Beware! There will be swearing, poking fun at religion, general overabundance of fangirling and probably pointless discussions, but since we have shitloads of fun with this, we hope you can laugh with us.

We made a Patreon over at https://www.patreon.com/taotpodcast to help with the monthly costs of hosting and making a podcast. We hope that you might consider joining us in this small but amazing community.

    Episode 115: TAOT Stardust The Movie #1

    June 21st, 2023  |  1 hr 23 mins

    Since we somehow turned into a Neil Gaiman Podcast, we came up with the amazing idea to cover one of his books that were turned into a movie. Nonsurprising to anyone but us, we managed to talk many, many hours about this. And so you get three episodes in which we are covering Stardust - The Movie.

    In Part One we have all the curious facts and funs about this movie and we make it as far as the first meeting between Tristan and Yvaine!
    So strap in for a wild ride, because we did not take out anything, that was even slightly related to the movie and our conversation about it.

    April 26th, 2023  |  1 hr 45 mins

    The time has come for the very first Summoning episode of Good Omens. And if you never listened to one of those before - beware...
    We had a lot to say and even more to drink, so this is a very chaotic episode - even more than usual.

    Strap in for a detailed conversation on our most/least favourite characters, character development, British words, THE book, predictions for season 2 and The Future of TAOT.

    March 29th, 2023  |  1 hr 25 mins

    It is already the very last episode of the first season of Good Omens! And it won't come as a surprise that we had EVERYTHING to say about this one.
    So join us for this glorious finale and let us know if you agree with our very many takes on pretty much every little thing one could debate (and also some one probably can't debate, but we still did it).

    TAOT Special: TAOT does LUX2

    March 15th, 2023  |  1 hr 2 mins

    We interrupt our scheduled program to bring you SO MANY ANSWERS.
    Listeners of our Lucifer coverage will remember that we created a very lengthy, thorough Questionaire and that we are aiming to answer every single question on there.
    Well, we haven't managed to answer all of them - yet. But we got many answers!

    Episode 109: TAOT Good Omens S1E5

    March 1st, 2023  |  1 hr 28 mins

    IT'S FINALLY HAPPENED, historic moment, where we recorded our first episode whilst in the same room together! That being said, it came with some challenges, so if you hear something you normally wouldn't have, we apologise, and this is why.

  • Episode 108: TAOT Good Omens S1E4

    February 15th, 2023  |  1 hr 26 mins

    We kick off the second half of the season with a bang! Our ineffable husbands are dealing with their break up, while being found out by their respective sides, Adam is coming to his power, while The Them try to keep him grounded and Newt meets Anathema, while their faith has already been sealed.

  • Episode 107: TAOT Good Omens S1E3

    February 1st, 2023  |  1 hr 23 mins

    The episode titel was weirdly prophetic - for the first time in a long while we watched a very different episode and though most fighting did not make it into the public part of the episode, it was still a pretty hard time - at times.
    Add to that the fact that Lina was struggling with a cold and that Vero's tech failed her once again. But nothing could dampen our love and enjoyment for the first half of this episode.
    So join us squealing in adoration for the beginning of the ineffable lovestory.

  •

    Episode 106: TAOT Good Omens S1E2

    January 18th, 2023  |  1 hr 30 mins

    Shadwell turns into Shitwell, madame Tracy is a gem, Adam may be a creep, the ineffable husbands are adorable and Lina and Vero are very appreciative.

    No new episode would be complete without some very wholesome facts brought to you by Lina, and some unexpected insight by Vero. Be aware that we do lightly compare some events to the book, but no real spoilers to be had.

  • Episode 105: TAOT Good Omens S1E1

    January 4th, 2023  |  1 hr 19 mins

    Or "the word ineffable itself is ineffable". WE ARE BACK! Two months of hiatus, we rested (not really), we planned (a tiny bit) but most importantly, we recorded (some).
    There are some changes (a new segment replaced an old one), many things remained the same (we're still us so no surprise there) and it's still much longer than it was supposed to be!
    So make yourself some hot cocoa and enjoy the return of The Apple Of Truth and the beginning of the end.
