2 Grown Men

It’s the second special Gillie family episode of 2 Grown Men, so it seems a good time to update the FAQ. James gets started, by asking Scarlet and Nicola some Very Important Questions. To varying levels of success.

Maybe you don’t know Hugh John Mungo Grant? This is him:

(He’s dreamy. Look at that cute awkward sort of head to the side, askance shoulders thing he’s got going on. He’s definitely more a “Jim” than a “Dwight”, isn’t he? If he were a Friends, he’d almost certainly be a “Chandler”.)

Episode 70 is a very special show for our first of 2015 – Nick is ill, so James has two guests, one of whom gives pretty much the best advice you will ever get on making a podcast in the first five minutes. James also talks about his Christmas, and we get a new and sincerely important insight onto his current state of mind.

Apologies in advance for your ears – James failed to manage one of his guests, who was by all accounts a bit of a hell-raiser.

Also, this episode defies show-noting. Defies them, I tell you! This is not a normal episode of 2 Grown Men, so of course we’ll provide full refunds to anyone who wants one. But it is a delight from start to finish. A DELIGHT!

Hopefully back to normal next week!

Nick and James talk about loads of different stuff, but fail to talk about Christmas until the very end.

The good news is it’s longer than usual! But the bad news is the sound quality is awful! Our recording situation was different from usual, and there was no way of doing a soundcheck. Sorry, everyone!

James’ amazing onion tweet that didn’t get nearly enough love is here!
