S6 Ep166: PLAY THE NATIONAL ANTHEM

The podcast is back to full-length recordings, just as Warrington put in a performance not worth talking about. So strap in as we look at an England squad with f**k-all chance of winning the test series, a 321 Dufty Bin section that goes completely pear-shaped, and question whether Burgess will make it to Hootenanny.

And with nothing but vanilla insight, Dennis is left to fill in all the gaps. Enjoy - although with this episode, that may prove almost impossible. www.patreon.com/whatbevan...

S6 Ep158: BRIAN WOULD HAVE WAITED OVER TWELVE HOURS FOR THE SODDING VIDEO REFEREE

There’s pessimism, optimism, and a dose of realism to be found in Wire’s last couple of weeks. Yes, the podcast returns armed with a barrage of facts - as Sam delivers his finest ever “shitsistic,” Dennis sags into AI and the cloning of commentary, and Rob follows through with 3000 dollars of Rustic Orange. Over at the sitcom, George has lost his voice, and Daniel somehow manages to deliver four seasons in a single soundbite. Plus, there's a solidarity history lesson from HAL. Enjoy. Please beco...
