This week on the podcast, we catch up with 2020 Giant Nut winners Jack Barker and Nick Mabey from End Game! This is our second time having Nick and Jack on the show this season—we interviewed them back in December, after their unexpected win over Tombstone in the first episode of the 2020 season. Little did we know, they had already taken home the Giant Nut. Wow, talk about restraint!
