The Simon and Ross Podcast

Simon Parkershows.acast.com

Ross and Simon former work colleagues, decided to make a podcast during lockdown (who didn't) discussing their top 10 albums, they then decide to carry it on, discussing more top 5's including movies and Elton John songs.


This eventually leads to us having guests to discuss theirs.


5 series in and still going, not quite as many episodes as during lockdown as life has a habit of getting in the way.
