Tall Boy Radio

Beans, Gaz and Andy look at the ten most popular episodes of the Tall Boy Radio and try and figure out what it is that captured people's imaginations and see if there are any unanswered questions from any of these.... Will it be the DNA special, when Johnny accidentally revealed his hot pockets or the time that Lisa fell off her chair. No. No it won't it's none of those. Tune in to find out! Go gr...

We were joined by Sam, the owner of Belgian Beer Company. You can find them online at www.thebelgianbeercompany.com - they offer a great range of Belgian, German and beers of the world. Many of the beers we've drunk on this podcast have been bought from there. We talked about how she got started, how the company has grown and how trends are changing in the beer market. She also gave us a virtual t...

There's no Andy this week but Gaz is back from his trot about the globe. We were joined by Jenni and Joyce, ⅔ of the Scottish Alchemists. We took the Fruits of the Forest gin made by local distillers The Edge for a test drive. Spoiler alert: it's fantastic. Get yourself along to theedgegin.co.uk to check it out for yourself. There's no banana dolphin in this episode but a new garnish is born... an...

There's no Gaz this week as he's in San Francisco and Andy is off doing the Dark Lord's bidding... so Beans is joined by friend of the show, Dave to take a look at conspiracy theories and how to spot them. We look at 7 conspiracy theories : The Great reset, Bill Gates is a Bond villain, Kubrick faked the moon landings, The Biden election was fraudulent, Scientific proof that we have a soul, chemtr...

No Gaz this week but Andy and Beans were joined by Mark Birtles (a Crewe Alexandra fan and regular on The Railwaymen podcast) and Dave Cartlidge (a Man U fan and girls' team coach of a local team). We talked about a lot of the issues that surrounded the sport that we all love. It's difficult to talk abou the game without looking at the gulf in the finances between the Premier league and league 2,...

We were joined by an old School friend who went on to become a vicar. We've mentioned Richard Pollard on the Podcast before, chiefly the talk he gave about faith to a packed lecture theatre of his 6th form piers. Gaz and Beans were both there. Gaz's appearance in this episode is brief but he does make an appearance despite what we say,at the start. Richard has made a significant difference in many...

Are you a Brick Geek? We were joined by THE Brick Geek, Phil Fenn. The Founder of Brick Geekz. We were also joined by the host of the Happy Hour Podcast, Mike Gray... a fellow geek who also happens to be a big lego fan. Phil talks us through his massive collection and his love for Lego. There isn't a set that he hasn't built. We look at many of the different genres... and Gaz takes us on a few Lef...

We were joined by Jason and Lisa from the Designated Quizzers Podcast. We've tussled with them via their quiz a couple of times. The 1st time, Liss famously fell of a chair and the second time, Gaz got absolutely whammo'd. This time we just wanted to chat with them and find out about the personalities behind the Quizmasters. It was an interesting insight into these 2 very likeable hosts. We hope y...

No guest this week so Gaz asked us what the biggest threat to mankind. Is it a virus, is it war, is it water shortage or could it be AI? Maybe just maybe artificial intelligence could pose the largest threat. You can get 20% off your orders at ollys-ollys.com just by listening to this podcast. The opening music is "London Bayou" by Oscar Albis Rodriguez and the closing music is "BDS" by Lewis Pick...

We were joined by Kam the creator of Beer Guide Worldwide. You know we love beer and you won't be surprised to hear that he loves beer every bit as much as we do. Search him out on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and TikTok. He visits some great places and charts his journey on his video. He also hosts events. Big events like the Cheshire craft beer festival in Knutsford. He also has some big plans.....

We were joined, all the way from Miami, Florida by Gina Black, a Paranormal investigator. Not only has she conducted investigations around the States, she's also been to Japan to look into strange phenomenon there too! You can find her on Social Media at instagram.com/shehaunts - and if that weren't enough we were also joined by Beans' cousin Beau in his first appearance as Guest host, he had a co...

Jerry Springer, Jeremy Kyle, Sally Jessie.... every time that they did a DNA special, you had to watch. Well this is Tall Boy Radio's take on those special and there's a lot at stake! Beans traced the lost branch to his family tree and Beau took a trip to England based on that information. Could you imagine if that was wrong? We find out, thanks to the good folks at ancestry.com and their DNA test...

You can't beat a good covers band and Double Denim Company are a GOOD covers band. Based in South Cheshire, they play classic 70s and 80s rock. We were fortunate enough to be joined by their Lead Singer Tim Hodgins, their lead Guitarist Jon Ayres and their drummer Justyn "Joppa" Peake to talk about some of their experiences. This episode is a little more chaotic than our usual output but that just...

We were joined by Jason - a man of many interests... a model railway enthusiast, an Internet DJ and a Paranormal investigator. The main focus of this episode is his investigations into the other realm. He tells us about faked photography, real life experiences, spectral voices picked up on his equipment... and then there's his own home which is still inhabited by the previous owners who have passe...

We look at the 6 most likely reasons that Humans came to inhabit Planet Earth. Whether you believe, we ruled by the serpent people, placed here by a God or aliens or that we desecneded from Monkeys (I know it's Apes but there's already a film with that title) we examine and rank the most likely reasons.... and then bid good wishes to our reptilian overlords (kidding). This week of all weeks, Beans...

We were joined by fellow Podcaster Mark Birtles from the Railwaymen podcast to talk about his football club Crewe Alex... but not in the sense that you may expect. Mark has had his struggles with his mental health and it lead him in 2019 to try and take his life. His love for his football club and the fact they are a smaller team with great ties to the local community means that could reach out to...

We were joined by Todd and Johnny (from the Todd Orndorf On The Toddcast podcast) to try out Reload Rub's Magnum. We'd held off trying this for 6 months (or had we??) And tried it for the 1st time (first time, really?) on this episode. If you're bothered by eating noises you'll be pleased to know they've been edited out. There's some serious talk about politics which may offend some snowflakes in...

We were joined all the way from Pittsburgh, PA by Anon Mess Age Sage - a musician and creative mind. He talks us through the thinking process behind his music and how he has turned negatives into positives. His music - not to everyone's taste by his own admission - is chaotic but also cathartic. It's a freedom of artistic impression. With comparisons to fellow Yinzer Andy Warhol, we had a fascinat...

We hand over the controls of the Tall Boy Radio Monster Machine to the Boys from Illinois - Ryan, Brad and Dick from the PubTime Podcast and they take it skywards. This is a collaboration episode... it's our 100th since Gaz and Andy joined so it seemed right to do something different. We go 5 for 5 on British Bands before discussing how powerful is Elon Musk? The main topics centre around the Dark...

We take a glance (minus Andy due to a scheduling conflict and not his either!!) at what's been going on in the world of Sport. We look at Tyson Fury's uppercut, Granit Xhaka's goal against Man United and look at the sporting superlatives and hyperboles that the media have attached to those. We ask Gaz - will Everton get relegated? His answer may surprise you. We look at Boxing out of the ring with...

There's no Andy this week as he didn't get back from his Easter break in time. Gaz has booked his Summer holidays to New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco and here's looking for ideas of stuff today - feel free to email suggestions to mail@tallboyradio.com which takes Beans down memory lane of holidays past. There's a little bit of NFL talk as Gaz doesn't let Beans off the hook a out comments he m...

We were joined by Beans' cousin from across the pond, Beau and by Beans' brother Jon to talk about Beau's recent visit to the UK. Ever since Beau found out he was related to Beans and Jon he decided he was going to visit England for the first time. We talked about his experience meeting up with the boys and their Father, Kris, the trip up to Edinburgh, how the UK differs to the US and how come he'...

We were delighted to be joined by Mike, Tabby and Caleb from the Happy Hour Podcast out of Louisville, Kentucky. We've guested on their podcast and Tabby appeared on the episode that we did with the Designated Quizzers. Our good pal Bill had an idea for an episode where we talk about the dumb stuff that we've done and ended up doing ourselves a mischief... and we thought why not involve our pals f...

We were joined by Dave and we welcomed Gaz back on to the podcast and he had a lot of things on his mind.... Was Will Smith or Chris Rock the villain at their Oscars debacle? We've all seen Gareth Bale's comments about the media, just how accountable are they? The sad and untimely passing of Taylor Hawkins. Should their be an age cap on heads of state and monarchs? ...and then there's female swimm...

There's no Gaz again this week and this time it's down to Covid19. Beans and Andy shoot the breeze about a whole host of topics. Andy's new Motorbike has had it's maiden voyage, will Everton get relegated? Will Man U or Arsenal make the top 4? Is Boxing's only point of interest the novelty fights? We talk about upcoming shows and the greatest competition on television : LegoMasters... and there's...
