  • Lockdown Chat: Medical Mysteries 2

    This time the boys present another LOCKDOWN CHAT!

    In these times of social distancing we think it's important to keep putting out some entertainment for people during these difficult times. In lieu of heading out and trying new activities we've started a special series of Lockdown Chats on various different subjects featuring stories, jokes, listener interaction and general debate.

    This time Neil and Jon continue their discussion of Medical Mysteries, and no topic is off limits. From exploding teeth to flaming bad breath as well as some ancient remedies you probably wouldn't want to try yourself, and some suggestions for the holy grail of the perfect hangover cure! 

    Plus Neil unveils his brand new game 'How did that get there?'.... You don't want to miss this one!

    We'll be back with more soon, so please send us any feedback, suggestions of topics, questions or anything else!

  • Lockdown Chat: Paranormal Activity

    This time the boys present their first LOCKDOWN CHAT!

    It's a first for the podcast as we're recording remotely, and in these times of social distancing we think it's important to keep putting out some entertainment for people during these difficult times. In lieu of heading out and trying new activities we've started a special series of Lockdown Chats on various different subjects featuring stories, jokes, listener interaction and general debate.

    This time the topic is Paranormal Activity. For those who don't know, both Neil and Jon scare very easily, but love hearing about ghosts, hauntings, aliens, witches, goblins and everything else in between!

    So have a listen and hear the boys tell each other some scary stories, break them down and discuss what they think. There are also plenty of laughs along the way (an incredible story about some Japanese taps...!!)

  • Ep014 - Colonic Irrigation Dread

    This time it's the one the listeners have been waiting for... the boys go and get a Colonic Irrigation!

    Discussion includes Neil's holiday to Austria and a disastrous turn of events which occurred, what going 'mole-ish' means, cashews, suncream, snowboarding and funny medical stories... As well as hearing all about the boys apprehension at the experience which lies ahead of them as they turn Mythbusters and go and do something not many dare to do!

    Neil also poses a rather important question, which gets Jon's brain working!

    How will it go? Will they go through with it or chicken out at the last minute? Will their bums ever be the same again? What is a colonic irrigation REALLY like? Will there be any accidents? Download and listen to find out.

As well as hearing all about the boys becoming fully fledged 'potters' and a class which proved slightly contentious!

    How will it go? Will day jobs be ditched in the pursuit of artistic excellence? Will moistened hands be gliding across one another? Will Jon make another brown condom?! Download and listen to find out.
