Half advice show, half survival guide, the podcast “How To Do Everything” answers listener questions from how to get out of quicksand to how to get out of an awkward situation.

The show is hosted by Mike Danforth and Ian Chillag, producers for “Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me.”

During its original run from 2011 to 2016, the show tackled listener questions on everything from keeping your fries crispy to escaping a charging rhino — usually with the help of actual experts. 



The show relaunched last week and new episodes are available Wednesdays.
