Although the boys dub this episode "the best reveal so far", there is still plenty to get frustrated about; from David Renwick's apparent confusion at how journalism works to an unbelievably offensive B Plot involving sex trafficking... Yep you read that right! Plus David thinks he's uncovered a JC shared universe with another early noughties BBC hit show!

For this week's Patreon requested podcast, David’s very own mother has tasked the boys with putting on their musicologist berets in order to explore the common misconception that seminal folk poet and singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen is only ever dark and depressing. Through six songs chosen by our hosts, Callum and David attempt to shine a light on the humour, wit, mischief and joy in the works of one of the 20th Century’s most gifted lyricists.

For this episode, listener Sylvain has asked the boys to delve into 1980s romantic procedurial blueprint 'Moonlighting'.

For their 6th Patreon podcast, requested by the legendary Kevin Oliver Jones, Callum and David take a departure from discussing nostalgic TV and cinema to delve down a very long and winding rabbit hole of 1960s counterculture, illegal CIA operations and one of the most famous and grizzly murders in history. Much of the podcast centres on a fantastic new book by Tom O'Neill, available here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1785152076/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_YoESEb9SNMA5D and as always you can get them to record ANYTHING AT ALL for just £5 https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32014828

For our fifth Patreon requested podcast, Ben asked us to revisit an oft forgetten (except for David, who happens to own the box set!) gem of BBC original programming: Crime Traveller!
