March 30, 2023 Cult Comedy Pod- The Institute for Research in Human Happiness Part 2
Part two of our look into the corporate cult and things get a little too real for Tony Wright.

Dictionary Corner watches in disgust as the two Tonys fly off script talking about everything from Ed Sheeran to Anime, Hamsters to Cress and the fun at work with a fire alarm.

March 23, 2023 Cult Comedy Pod- The Institute for Research in Human Happiness Part 1
The boys are back in town!

After a short break the two Tonys and Dictionary Corner are back with part one of Happy Science.

Obviously we tried our best to stick to the script but got distracted talking about jobs, Scooby Doo, Basnett is dreadful at impressions...and a return that brought some of us too much joy.

February 23, 2023 Cult Comedy Pod - Ho-no-Hana-Sanpogyo
We return to our normal schedule with a group thats been renamed "Japanese Foot Reading Cult" Yeah, that gives you a BIG understanding of this week.

Tony B has a cold which I think might have had an effect on how this went, the group (Suze is BACK) get sidetracked and sidetracked and sidetracked again!

We discuss everything, supermarkets, Barry Manilow, Ian McKellen, World Leaders and Tony W makes an over the top bold claim.

February 16, 2023 Cult Comedy Pod - Freedomites
John Frum week day 4!

We head back in time and back across the pond to look at The Freedomites and the utterly absurd way of dealing with things.

More true crime than most groups we cover?

More of the Tonys getting distracted whilst Dictionary corner is away.
Sure, they discuss the cult but with sidetracks of Ru Paul, getting old, TikTok and Disney.
