Seems that attempting to jump through the middle of the earth is fraught with problems. Lippy's claim that having a fresh...

Both Lippy & Grumpy struggle with getting connected, with a combination of equipment failure (Grumpy) and user error (Lippy).

There are some similarities to an "The Office"...

Our first episode on SquadCast, better quality sound and hopefully easier to edit. Lippy may have a rogue Alexa alarm after last week and a top tip for annoying neighbours.

We've had feed back form several listeners this week, including, as ever, Davros. Christmas films peaked interest and we've found definitive proof that Die Hard is a Christmas film, and come to the conclusion that Home Alone isn't. In the ramble through the week's events we discuss another 747 making it's final flight to Dunsfold Park, how to help others by twinning your toilet and Lippy has a bon...

An apology about last week's editing, less about Radio 1, more about Autotune, sandwich feedback from listeners, including bizarre combos and a second Orange Marshal joins the fray, weighing in with black pudding preferences. We talk extensively about the Formula 1 accident in Bahrain, although it's several minutes before we mention the words Formula 1, so you may be confused about what we're talk...

We had a bit of a recording problem early on, so there may be a few odd bits of editing, sorry!

Following on from last week, we have an update on eating mince pies before December (Grumpy was right) and a listener contacts us with experience of Marmite and Peanut Butter (it wasn't good) and provides a cracking Jurassic Park quote (no, it wasn't Alan Partridge). Lippy has a job interview at last, nevertheless is more excited about the opening of the nearby Aldi and how well the products are l...
