Tall Boy Radio

We turn an Orwellian nightmare into a bit of fun. Beans, Gaz and Andy each pick 2 things to be disposed of. What does Gaz hate most about football? What cornerstone of society gets Andy fired up? Which part of the ecosystem does Beans have beef with? What else will trigger their anger? In this episode Beans and Gaz disagree over the phrase "living to work". Gaz was actually referring to the rising...

We talk about our favourite Christmas traditions and how they've instilled in us our love for Christmas and desire to make the festive period special for our children. We also talk about our most memorable gifts - they may not be the most expensive gifts we ever received but they resonated with us...

We are honoured to be joined by our new friends from across the pond, Ryan and Brad of the Pubtime Podcast (Go check them out if you haven't already).

This week it's Gaz's turn to ask the questions... and if you know anything about him, you'll have guessed that they are all sports based. We're joined by our pal Dave to look at inequality in sport. Be that the race debate in Cricket, or whether sportswomen should be allowed to compete against their male counterparts. We consider it all. There's the usual NFL talk and we throw down a challenge to...

Growing up Beans wished he was Luke Duke. Turns out that dream was a little closer than he thought in that in tracing his American leg of the family tree, he has a cousin Beau. If you listened to episode BDS5, you'll know the back story, if not, you can always go back and listen to Beans does Genealogy. Beau should have joined us at TBR HQ but due to some passport problems he had to join us digita...

In this episode, Beans puts the important questions to Gaz and Andy. We look at the top 100 Googled questions so far this year and see if these 2 guys can do a better job than the search engine in dishing out the answers. We've not gone for the mundane, we've picked the stranger questions that have been asked. Can dogs eat bananas? Are unicorns real? Are jellyfish immortal? You'll find all the ans...

The gang are back together and firing on all cylinders. The Reload Rub is ready to be switched again (for the most part). We pitch the 5 beer idea to Gaz - who in his absence has managed to check something off of his bucket list, and it may not be one that you'd predict. There's the usual NFL round-up before we look at climate change : who's doing what and what could or should we be doing differen...

There's no Gaz again this week but Beans and Andy welcome Dave the Internet guy back as a guest. He asks us a bunch of questions that don't have a black and white answer, leaving us to get tangled up in grey. Questions like : should nurses be mandated to get the Covid19 vaccination? Should euthanasia we legal in the UK? Is winning the key message to be taught in children's sport? There's the usual...

The tops are popped on the Reload Rub and the cook off has begun. This stuff is phenomenal. We need to get this in the UK on a regular basis. It hurt us all but we took a look at how our bet is playing out as the Lions, Steelers and Bears all faltered in week 3. Why is Halloween so popular? We're seeing people talking about it already on social media and we don't understand the fuss. There's an up...

Andy is back with Beans and Gaz this week and we see just how close we were to guessing the name of his son. Pretty close as it turns out but should we have been closer?

We learnt alot from...

There's no Andy again this week as he does the rather more important job of being a Dad. Beans and Gaz head north to Whitburn in Scotland to check out the World Cup of Disability Darts.

We interviewed a number of interesting characters and learned alot about podcasting in t...
