Wie is de Mol

Basically, Dutch

Cover yourself with strategically-placed luggage, because we are back for Wie is de Mol 2025! Over these ten weeks, three guys who would otherwise just be playing cherades - Michael, Logan & Bindles - are recapping and breaking down everything that happens on the show's visit to Cambodia in our twenty third Mole season, continuing with the third episode and elimination of Gabriël!
In this episode - Logan returns very relaxed, we swap SFO stories, Michael's been breaking rules, we celebrate January by talking about Christmas, there's been a bit of an infestation, KLM lose some points, we talk about the most important news of the last week, a Pieter Jan-ker's Samble is offered, we wonder if Canucks can cluck, this is still not a Traitors podcast, Logan gets the chance to catch up on last week, we reveal some tech issues, Maaike wipes off her joker, Sam gets his own dick moment, Rik earns some praise, we have a brand new sound effect just for Logan, a bingo square is (hopefully!) subverted, Sophie & Sam are a pair of cheats, the mood is brought down, the podcast ruins autocorrect, everything comes back to just one thing, we finally acknowledge an off-air mess-up, there are the latest updates to First Suspicions and the Pool, we have a lot of bum jokes, the Netherlands have some strange suspects, the third set of suspicions is locked in and there is a gulf forming in entertainment.
You can play along with this week's Bother's Bar Suspect List here. We will see you next week for Episode 4!
Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free, but references to any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 16-24 and Renaissance; België 4-12) may be made. In addition, we *sort of* spoil someone who isn't the Mole in the Thailand season, but if you've seen Renaissance you know who it isn't already.

Phnom Phnom

Prevaricate in a Canadian accent, because we are back for Wie is de Mol 2025! Over these ten weeks, two guys who have been outside for a whole week - Michael & Bindles - are recapping and breaking down everything that happens on the show's visit to Cambodia in our twenty third Mole season, continuing with the second episode and elimination of Teun!
In this episode - Michael spots an error, we wonder where in the world Logan Saunders actually is, something's getting a rebrand, there's been a bit of feedback about last week's Mole Briefing, we go through the Netherlands' suspects and First Suspicions, the cast may be dumb, the virtues of good Mole money are extolled, they finally work out what to do with Rik, we try and guess whether the Heist had a sabotage, there's a distinct lack of "etherdiscipline", Michael tells a group of strangers to STFU, Roos sabotages unnecessarily, Bridget makes us break with convention, we wonder whether Dame Joanna Lumley can bleat, Bindles spots a suspicious poster, there is the first update to the Pool and First Suspicions, we try and predict who's the Mole and who's going home next and we run the numbers to see whether we're justified in joking about how shallow the casting pool is.

Can Cormorants Bleat?

Be cruelly denied the opportunity to make a dick joke, because we are back for Wie is de Mol 2025! Over these ten weeks, the world's least necessary commentators - Michael, Logan & Bindles - will be recapping and breaking down everything that happens on the show's visit to Cambodia in our twenty third Mole season, beginning with the first episode and surprise selection of the Mole!
In this episode - Bindles forgets he requested an intro, we help Fuzzy get an inevitable bingo square, Logan refuses to finish an anecdote, Michael has been being followed by the podcast, Bindles holds an iconic trophy, Logan gets a new segment, AI has its use, a choice is offered, Michael reveals a lie, we make probably our most important announcement ever, Logan discovers the new intro, we try and make a new Best Friend (there's room for two, Gilles!), the fan reactions do a full 180, Bindles loves maps, there's a genuinely interesting fact about apple crates, we reveal how Jeroen got on Renaissance, there's finally a bit of dissent, Michael reveals the logic behind the Suspect List question, Logan gives us some Cambodian knowledge, one of our favourites finally reappears, there's a perfectly understated reaction to Briefing of the Mole appearing in WIDM, we hesitantly lock-in our First Suspicions, Logan gets a personal challenge, we try and predict who's going home first and there's some praise for the lack of a convoluted non-elimination episode (so far).
You can join in with our First Suspicions game by filling in the form here and play along with this week's Bother's Bar Suspect List here. We will see you next week for Episode 2!
Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free, but references to any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 16-24 and Renaissance; België 4-12) may be made.

Pumping Airen

Abandon the fruit at checkout, because we are back for our sixth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2016's offering in the Dominican Republic! Over these nine weeks, three guys who have all memorised one square of a sudoku - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on a season with quite a reputation in the Mole fan communities, continuing with the fifth episode and elimination of Marjolein.
In this episode - we've had a little midseason break, Venice has a lot of scams, a restraining order is nearly used, Papa Bear has been to a theme park, Logan reveals his logic, Michael explains one of his podcast-themed goals, there are the first whispers of NetMol II: It's Your Own Damn Fault At This Point, an old segment returns, there is an update on our favourite hot dog eater, Bindles has been waiting six weeks to do a joke, someone gets forgotten, we look for sponsors, Logan earns himself a time out, bright ideas come from the unlikeliest of places, someone gets an invitation to a new show, Marjolein is reluctantly eulogised and the fifth set of suspicions is locked in.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 6!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 11, 14 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 17-24 and Renaissance; België 4-12) is fair game though.

Additional note: Anna is the Mole, right? I mean, we could try and build up some intrigue but we're all on for a clean sweep here.
