Comedian and internet sketch extraordinaire Seán Burke joins Landlord Robbie and Regular Dan to build his dream pub, which, as you’ll discover, is replete with handles.

In the first part of our chats our guests build their pub. In the second part we will be ...

Welcome to The Walk Inn, built and stocked by YouTuber Ciarán Carlin. Now the pub has been created, let's step inside. Ciarán answers two of life's big pub questions: what's the best Wetherspoons in central London, and which celebrity owns the best London pub? This is the 2nd part of our chat with Ciarán. You can listen to this episode on its own if you like - it'll make sense - but we’d recommend listening to the first episode to get the full experience. In the first part of our chats our guest...

Robbie returns from Catalonia’s sunny shores with news of his time at the actual ‘best bar in the world’. Wow does that landlord get around. The Moon Under Water portals must really be cheap this time of year. The world’s best bar means a big old queue to get in and former guest Alfie Templeman sees his own favourite drink put to the test in Barcelona. Does it get the Knox seal of approval? Robbie and Dan also review loads of your correspondence including footballers in and owning pubs, and also...

It's a properly laugh out loud couple of sessions in The Moon Under Water this week, as today's guest fulfils his dream of being a Muslim pub proprietor. It’s the brilliant comic Eshaan Akbar. Expect enthusiasm for Protestant whiskeys and so much more from someone who like Robbie is a fellow testicular torsion survivor. As a result far more [medical] balls-based content than could’ve ever been anticipated when the landlord opened the doors today. In the first part of our chats our guests build t...

The Landlord is preparing himself to go on tour but he shares a quick half with Dan to mull over all sorts of questions from the notice board. Does three pints make you faster? Or at the very least, with the wind rushing through your hair does it make you *feel* faster? That and other important Qs from the PNB like “What’s the worst drinks line up you’ve ever seen?” are posed and partially answered. Got pub stuff to share? Know a child that is nuts for oysters?

The Premier League era has a new youngest inductee, as the doors swing open for one of the most exciting young pop artists around.

A delightful selection on the house today for comic Elliot Steel is propping up the bar building his dream pub. For the first time (as far as our memories serve) that the progeny of a former guest has made their way into the Moon Under Water. Mark Steel passes the pub baton on to his son. But Elliot's pub is very much his own. There's rich chat on the subject of 24 hour roasts and Las Vegas, as well as near evangelical praise for a generic lager. And keep an ear out, for the first time ever, for...
