Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help. Each episode, the guys make several pitches to callers (whose questions range from trivial to serious) with their best attempts of advice. They can't promise their suggestions will be perfect, but it will be the best they've got. Jake and Gareth also occasionally bring on a friend, peer or even an expert to help along the way.

Watch episodes early Sundays and Tuesdays on Hulu.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:20:35.619606+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/we-re-here-to-help-6574732"},"episode":{"title":"WEIRD Here To Help: Fairy Ring Hoax & 90-Year-Old Nemesis","slug":"weird-here-to-help-fairy-ring-hoax-90-year-old-nemesis","published_at":"2026-06-05T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/we-re-here-to-help-6574732/weird-here-to-help-fairy-ring-hoax-90-year-old-nemesis","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/we-re-here-to-help-6574732","url":"https://s.gum.fm/s-6553f4813bc8558891291a1c/prfx.byspotify.com/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/b57058b6-5b03-4972-ba79-aba7d4390004.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://s.gum.fm/s-6553f4813bc8558891291a1c/prfx.byspotify.com/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/b57058b6-5b03-4972-ba79-aba7d4390004.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"A caller thinks she discovered a Fairy Ring and seeks guidance from the world's second-most renowned Fairy Ring expert (Steve).
