In the first episode of the year the brothers give an update on what they got up to over Christmas and the New Year (or not). We welcome our new listeners in the Netherlands (not Neverland). Dan tries bingo for the first time and we touch on women in darts. Plus you get an update on the films we've been watching over the festive period. In a first Gavin has a game for Dan in reference to the last episode, just a heads up it's not for the feint of heart or easily offended. Happy New Year you beautiful people.

As Christmas approaches the boys discuss all the traditional topics the worlds only recorded giant dwarf, UFC and super gonorrhoea. Daniel gives some sexual health advice. We share some stories about footballers including our first hero of the week. Gavin finds out he is in a music video, starring role? Not quite. We ask the important question...who is your favourite Andre? Agassi or The Giant? Also we have our first (unplanned) guest, if you can hear them, Gavins frustrations about people not talking into the microphone continue.

In this first episode we get into racism in football, Game Changers and veganism. Along with accidentally insulting everyone we talk about who we'd like to get as guests. Oh and are oranges really worth the effort? The debate rages on.....
