  • S2:Ep10: Challenged Walking

    Season 2: Episode 10:

    A walking one. Some coughs (edited), and more than one song intwined. Plus quite a long dissection of the unfairness of the walking challenge in which I am competing.

  • S2:Ep09: Go me!

    Season 2: Episode 9:

    I can imagine the future conversations "There's this guy in Kanazawa, he narrates his commute to work every morning and puts it out. He's been doing it for ages, despite only having an average of 6 downloads...it's really good though, you should check it out, Mr. HEAD OF BIG COMPANY" and that's when the first big sponsorship deal drops...the rest is history of the future...


    Anyway, this is a driving episode with bonus gomi trips. Plural.

  • S2: Ep 08: Driving, rain

    Season 2; Episode 8:

    Driving episode today. Hey Duggee is the viewing of choice for Stinky. Just a standard drive really. The Ed Sheeran episode isn't doing the numbers I'd hoped for...

  • S2:Ep07: A white mochary, that fish joke

    Season 2, Episode 7.

    We've got all the jazz greats, we've got a coffee meeting, we've got noisy cars, we've got alternative bridges, we've got quickly constructed construction x2, we've got Richard E. Grant (references). Never say this podcast doesn't deliver an eclectic smorgasbord of topicular enjoyment!

  • S2: Ep06: 2 Offended Celebrities, 1 Old Lady, and a Rat

    Season 2: Episode 6:

    Back with a bang! A long weekend has brought about many wonderful stories, packed with intrigue. Hear about my encounters with celebrated musicians, and how I left a bad taste in each of their mouths. Hear me come to the rescue of a stricken obaachan, LIVE! Hear me regale to you the story of the giant mukaderat named Alexander. Plus there's some suspected limes, an irresponsible mother, and another sick mother. I didn't even mention the best biriyani I've ever had (Aashirwad in Korinbo) or the delicious apple crumble at Hetta Company, where we met and played with two little girls and their extremely beautiful mother. Nor did I mention the strange little girl who introduced herself to us at the park...I'm bound by the constraints of the time it takes me to commute. SHO GA NAI!

  • S2: Episode 5: Crackly ears

    Season 2: Episode 5;

    In this episode I take a WILDLY different route, there's an aural treat via an old man with a trolley, I say hello to a one-eyed lady, I reveal the meaning of life, and am involved in a gangland shooting.

  • S2:Episode 04: The ED SHEERAN EXCLUSIVE Episode

    In this episode I talk exclusively about ED SHEERAN and nothing else. I have EXCLUSIVE ED SHEERAN content all about ED SHEERAN and things related to ED SHEERAN.


    Right, that should help with the algorhythms. This episode has basically nothing to do with ED SHEERAN.

  • S2:E03: New Daughter Day!

    Season 2: Episode 3: New Door Today!

    Yes, the exciting news I'm sure the title of this episode led you to, we are having a new door installed today! Hear all about it, some impromptu violin music, some wheezing, a story of misplaced beer, and a few hellos along the way.


    Possibly rather insultingly, this episode is in memory of Helen Rogers, my first kiss. Rest in Peace, Helen.

  • S2: Episode 02: Gas and a headache

    Season 2: Episode 2;

    Big 'ol headache rolled in last night and refuses to leave, HOWEVER, this is as bangin' an episode as you'll ever hear, and that's saying not a lot. I get petrol, and do some country singing in a Bowie style. that's all you need to know.

  • Season 2; Episode 1; Day 1 - The Episode Time Forgot

    It's a new season! Somehow the bigwigs at Spotify have deemed this podcast outstandingly successful enough to commission a second season. Lucky you. Typically, I forgot to record on my way in, so this is a bonus episode I recorded last week that I couldn't edit on my silly computer at home.

    Trigger warning! It does contain some potentially disgusting content regarding gunk, and there is one fuck. The word, not the act.
