This is it. We have some big news to announce. As you heard a few weeks ago, from Jonny the marketing expert, the branding of our show could do with a bit of a make over. So, in this episode, you're going to hear about our plans for 2024! We have a new name, some new artwork, and from January we'll be bringing you an extra Friday episode as well. Joe, Tom and Producer Ryan are bringing the Show Gr...

Ho ho ho, merry Christmas! Actually we should just say merry Christmas, as apparently the real Santa doesn't say ho ho ho. We learn this (and many other secrets of the trade) from Mike, who is a professional Father Christmas. Yes, that is his real job all year round, as he takes bookings in January, and there is a Santa convention that happens in June. Luckily, most Santa's get to take Christmas d...

Our guest this week is Jonny, who is an expert in marketing.

Some of the facts you will hear in this episode about germs will likely blow your mind. You may not even understand it all... we're not sure Joe did. But what we can tell you is that there is talk of zombie ants, the amount of bacteria on a nightclub carpet, viruses and if they could wipe out humanity, and a study on Belgian faeces which is quite frankly, ridiculous. Dr Jonathan Kennedy is our exp...

We're cracking open the Whisky in this episode (literally)... or is it spelled Whiskey? Well apparently that depends where it's made. Turns out we don't no much about whisky, so we brought in an expert to teach us all about it. Joe also drinks some of the samples way too quickly, so this one could go anywhere. Enjoy.
