Episode 33 - I said I love you to the new star players, they burst into tiers....

Welcome to our 33rd episode. It’s a big un with a whole host of discussion topics. Our main talking point is the stars which we haven't yet placed into our tier list.

We have an impassioned room double 1 as well as the old favourites such as tell me the odds and the episode quiz which gets us to guess how much stuff costs. You can contact us via any ...
