As COVID makes further inroads into Tonkinson Towers, Paul’s still isolating while Rob runs down to the Barbican and St. Paul’s - but worry not; they’ve got their remote chat tech down. Featuring Craig David, a 50% reduction in presenters running and drinking, proposal memories, Geordie confusion, generational chess, cribbage report, young entrepreneurs, and some tentative hopes and dreams for 2021.

Amid further COVID trouble for Paul and his family, and the absolute acme of this Winter’s weather, the boys chat remotely - Rob in the open air, Paul in the lockdown kitchen. Featuring vegan and non-vegan recipe ideas, beans and baths - not in an Ann-Margret-in-Tommy way - scary films and romantic sitcoms, and, as January draws to a close, how those New Year’s resolutions are panning out.

Paul's had SUCH a good excuse for not running with Rob this week - but the files had to be deleted because they were so very spicy. So, spend of a few minutes listening to the sound of one man running - Rob, that is - and we promise Paul will be along in the end. Also featuring baked beans and sausages, drinking report, rowing with spouses and losing at chess to children, and inconvenience in the heart of London.

Rob and Paul’s first run of 2021 was recorded pre-lockdown - but they could see it coming, so their resolutions are, shall we say, tentative. Featuring rhyming mantras, staying with Santa, consolidation, moderation, new runners, New Year’s honours, and… what rhymes with ‘plank’?
