The podcasts uses the Catalan pronunciation of the name because Pujol was from Barcelona, but also because the standard international Spanish pronunciation is too close to "poo-hole".

''[[https://soundcloud.com/user-41098980/ Fat, French and Fabulous]]'' is an informative [[BlackComedy comedy]] podcast that covers "histories and mysteries", including strange disappearances, petty fueds, and lesser known aspects of famous historical figures and eras. The show also has a healthy helping of grade-A Canadian content, thanks to the fact that both hosts (Jessica Pigeau and Janel Comeau) are Canadian graduate students.
