Episodes

S6 Ep137: BATH 07.07.2024

The micro podding season concludes with Sam at the game, Dennis in his tent and Rob hiding in an attic. Enjoy.

S6 Ep136: THE GREEK ISLANDS 26.06.2024

Rob is recovering from a road accident on the continent he believes was instigated by a female driver, Dennis writes down four micro notes, and Sam caveats Ben Thaler's cummerbund. 

S6 Ep135: LAKE COMO 21.06.2024

Un altro micropodcast. Questa volta dall'Italia. Godere.

S6 Ep134: LEE IN DUBAI 09.06.2024

It's the day after Wire's disappointing Wembley performance and the podcast reflects on what went wrong. Dennis and Sam experience contrasting social echelons during their London days out, whilst Lee and Rob watch on from Dubai - with more toilet breaks than Warrington's points tally. Enjoy.  Please support to pod www.patreon.com/whatbevan

S6 Ep133: TOKYO POD 02.06.2024

In a micro-pod fittingly live from Tokyo, Dennis, Sam and Rob discuss the win over Catalans, the loss to Wigan, a bit of news, and their cup final predictions. Enjoy.

S6 Ep132: I HIT RODRICK TAI WITH AN ALCOHOL FREE BOTTLE FROM 97 YARDS 22.05.2024

Two more wins for Wire and a trip booked to Wembley but will Dennis bring the podcast vibe down with his misogynistic commentary? Sam refutes a free bar xenophobic accusation, as Rob questions a female BMW driver. That’s right, strap in, as the podcast digs a hole bigger than Ackers Pit as with  “limited contact” and “no leg-ups” it teeters on the brink of being cancelled. Enjoy. Help pay for this...

S6 Ep131: BOTH MATCHES WERE A BIT SHIT AND A FISHCAKE 08.05.2024

The podcast fails to get excited about Wire’s two recent games, which leads to an episode of waffling. Dennis endeavours to charm a hermaphrodite, Sam launches into a Rodrick Tai bashing, and Rob would rather discuss the strippers at Wilderspool. Plus, Daniel’s back with his tenuous HJ alphabet and the sitcom is off for takeaway from the Stockton Fryer. Enjoy.

S6 Ep130: THATCHER, BURGESS, AND THE POSTMODERN PARADIGM: UNRAVELING THE INTRICACIES OF DESIGN, POLITICS, WILLIES, RONNIE CORBETT AND THE PERFORMANCE OF THE WARRINGTON WOLVES 24.04.2024

The podcast celebrates its most positive episode in six years. Sam relaunches shitistics for the first time in 53 episodes, Dennis is all regattas & goths, and Rob totally forgets to mention his bang-on 80% prediction. Plus, Daniel returns with the most tenuous of tenuous alphabetical links, and the sitcom embraces a Shakespearian sausage or two. Enjoy. STOP BEING A TIGHT ARSE AND HELP PAY FOR...

S6 Ep129: TWO THOUSAND JELLY CUBES 08.04.2024

The podcast reverts to a Sunday recording which makes everyone feel a little bit uncomfortable. Dennis decides to piggy-back off more than a Sky sport's subscription, Sam returns from a slow weekend in Cardiff lifting a heavy load of shitistics, and Rob carries on muddling up his words. There's a quiz that could take a while to set and Daniel resiliently protests from Queensland. Plus, as Burgess...

S6 Ep128: HOT WATER BOTTLE 27.03.2024

The podcast takes an in-depth look into bursts, contacts and spillages. As we let off some steam towards the anatomy, and ask why are the shitistics significantly lopsided towards the winter months? So climb onboard, head to the top deck, and admire not one, but two, sightseeing tours of London. Enjoy. Due to Rob facing another harsh Australian winter, please become a patron and help him cover the...

S6 Ep127: THE BURGESS EFFECT 13.03.2024

The Burgess effect is in full flow but is Jenna Brooks' interview technique affecting his coaching? The effect of Sam's new shitistic affects the podcast more than any other stat in the past two years. Dennis looks at whether the effects of aerodynamics on a haggis affects its throwing distance, and the effect of gravity on Rob's nipple is affecting his personal wellbeing. Plus, there's Daniel's J...

S6 Ep126: THE MASS OF PAUL VAUGHAN IN PICKLED ONIONS 28.02.2024

Sam Burgess takes-off with his first win but our Sam touches-down with jet lag, resulting in a limited supply of shitistics. Dennis writes, wrote or has written to the RFL, as Rob makes an absolute pickle of the halftime quiz. Daniel is back with his tenuous alphabet and the sitcom takes on an Australian twang. Enjoy. With Dennis refusing to contribute to Rob's Super League + subscription, please...

S6 Ep125: ALL WELL THAT ENDS WELL 21.02.2024

Dennis continues to look for an alternative sport and comes under pressure from a quick fire quiz. With Sam making his way back from Melbourne, it’s left for Rob to spill the beans on Sankey’s irritable bowel following his surf lesson. The’s more Hi de hi, Daniel covers off an obscure D E and F at the Halliwell Jones and Roger Moore turns out to make the perfect fullback. Plus, with 673 players up...

S6 Ep124: MAKE HAYES WHILE THE SUN SHINES 06.02.2024

The podcast returns, and with Sam Burgess now behind the wheel of the Wire, can he steer them to victory before losing his licence? Sam packs his bags for Sydney, Rob shaves his bullocks and Dennis spends too much time measuring armpits. There's an A to Z of the Halliwell Jones, yet another 80's sitcom, predictions and a red or blue clusterfuck of a quiz. Enjoy. Due to rising podcasting hosting ch...

S5 Ep123: A POWER STATION AND A FIDDLER'S PHONE-IN 04.12.2023

The podcast attempts another phone-in but will the 'What would Brian Bevan say' firewall leak more than Warrington's left-edge defence? Sam has family bin issues, Dennis measures the altitude of Daresbury and Rob's concerned about the thermostat on Alan London's boiler. Plus there's a quiz. Cue the applause. Enjoy.  " A big thank you to Chris and Mark."  Please help the podcast by becoming a patro...

S5 Ep122: SAM BURGESS' EST EST EST HOME DELIVERY 27.11.2023

What does the future hold for Sam Burgess, where will Wire finish the season, and is Mrs Sankey having an affair with a US Marine? With Dennis’ social calendar more congested than the Warrington vs Catalans fixture list, it’s left to Rob and Sam to cast their eye over the 2024 squad. Plus, is Jim Bergerac the answer to magic weekend, and has an impromptu call from Alan London solved the Wolves’ sc...

S5 Ep121: JANETTE KRANKIE 03.10.2023

It's time for the autopsy with the podcast and its listeners (or is that listener) endeavouring to dissect another clusterfuck of a season. Sam enrols to become a Super League referee, Dennis sets to working on a title for his new 2024 section and Rob rallies with a south of the river broken arm. Enjoy, we'll see you all in February. Probably.  Get through the bitter winter months by watching Tack...

S5 Ep120: GOODBYE FOREVER 27.09.2023

Wire make the elimination play-off but Dennis seems more worried about claiming travel expenses. Rob reminisces about his uncle who he believes is a clear replacement for Bill Arthur. Sam offers up his biggest ever caveat. Plus, the WhatBevan player of the year focusses on just ten nominations, Daniel names his season’s XII and the sitcom perfectly summarises the season. Enjoy. Want to see us come...

S5 Ep119: SHIT OR SHITTERER 13.09.2023

Is the season about to draw to a close for Wire, or will a brief reprieve only delay the inevitable? With Dennis struggling with his French Connection, it's left to London & Sankey to lead a more in-depth analysis of Warrington's failings. Plus, Rob gives a blatant view of recent centre signings, and with a revamped Tacklebags section, the future of the podcast is Sam's Top Trumps (but only sh...

S5 Ep118: CAN YOU NAME A FAMOUS TABLE TENNIS PLAYER? 30.08.2023

It's been 77 days between wins but finally the podcast has a narrative of optimism, as the recording comes from three different timezones. Will Dennis get stuck into a late night Black Forest gateau? Which star player is Mr Sankey not happy with? And will the Bellcharm Motor Company TNT Chinese restaurant electricity scam come to light? Plus, there's Daniel's Match of the Club, a UFO sighting and...

S5 Ep117: LET'S DRAW A WHITE LINE UNDER HINDSIGHT 09.08.2023

What a week it’s been at Warrington as the podcast endeavours to tackle the missing piece of a clusterfuck of a jigsaw. Dennis holds court in a wig not fit for Chambers, Sam requests a name change and doesn’t hold back - although is his transmission lost in translation? And Rob questions our interim coach’s due diligence based on a 1993 sale at Renault Manchester. Daniel offers up his recruitment...

S5 Ep116: EXCLUSIVE!! JUSTIN HOLBRICK INTERVIEW AND A PODCAST HACKING 02.08.2023

Justin Holbrick joins the podcast but unfortunately due to a WhatBevan firewall security breach, there’s more cock and bollocks than you could shake a stick at. Sam suffers interference of another kind from an Ironbridge, Dennis is clearly still in crisis and Rob’s production skills are just as disorganised as Warrington’s right-edge defence. Enjoy. We didn’t. It’s was an absolute clusterfluck. Be...

S5 Ep115: DO NEUTRINOS, GRAVITATIONAL WAVES AND WIRE'S RIGHT EDGE DEFENCE REALLY EXIST? 19.07.2023

As Warrington carry on their descent down the Super League table, the podcast questions other free falling objects. Dennis bemoans the pricing at Wigan, but can he really complain when he’s grocery shopping at Booths in Knutsford. Sam impersonates all his emotions as Mrs Sankey continues her Jetset lifestyle over in Milan. And Rob falls asleep after only 14 minutes of video analysis on Wire’s new...

S5 Ep114: DARYL AND THE GREAT GLASS DESCENDING BOX 05.07.2023

As Daryl locks himself away in his great glass box and Warrington descend in the Super League table, can the podcast find an ounce of positivity? Rob, recently back from Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s tropical Love Island, struggles to find a right-clawed cockatoo or depressingly engage with a male green turtle. Dennis plunges head-first into a think-tank of STDs, and Sam contemplates opening up...

S5 Ep113: GLORY HOLE 21.06.2023

As Warrington exit the Challenge Cup at the hands of just twelve pie-eating bastards, the podcast returns to take stock of Wire’s league table oxymoron precipice. Sam is desperately in need of a drink, with his ranting leaving Rob speechless - literally, and stumped to reminisce about his indoor cricket. Dennis’ TackleBags rebadges to Dennis’ AirBags, and Daniel grixes-up the interchange bench. Pl...
