This week Gemma sits down with an incredible musician, Matt Roberts to discuss his current and upcoming albums/singles. Matt is truly a fascinating guest and Gemma really enjoyed recording this episode. They get to know the back story of his songs, where it all started, his connection to BBC Music and much more. Matt has kindly allowed us to play his track; Fools Gold at the end of the episode, which is an amazing, toe-tapping jam. 

Matt's new single; Someone Told Me is OUT NOW!!! Go to ALL music apps and download his current single and all others. He's so talented, he needs to be picked up by a label already. GO DOWNLOAD HIS STUFF AND HELP HIM GET OUT THERE... YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED, GEMMA PROMISES.... She knows good music.

From the brain child of Gemma; we bring to you our 2020 Halloween episode. 

Taken from news stories from all around the world, Gemma and James sit around a campfire to tell the Spookiest of Stories... because they are real life stories.

Ouija boards sold in Poundland, Corona Virus masks, incorrectly buried pets, crying dolls and many more stories to put a chill down your spine. OK! I'll be honest, this episode is more funny than scary, the scariest thing is the spelling in the newspaper articles. But, does that put you off? It shouldn't. 

Sit back, relax and let James and Gemma get you in the Halloween spirit.

This week Gemma is joined by not only an OG #SaltyTadpole but an established author Mr Bob Christian. We discuss his poetry and Bob reads a couple of pieces which are amazing. We also discuss the fact that Bob has Asperger's Syndrome and we will all get a better understanding of this syndrome and what makes the Autistic brain tick. 

This really is a fascinating and insightful episode with some geek talk and fun along the way. Gemma also proves how innocent/naïve she is LOL.

We discuss Swearing Parrots. What a "Bell-End" did to her hair. What's the buzz about a dog finding something on a walk? Where did a man cycle to and from? What does a man use for his face mask? What is happening outside James' window? All this and MUCH MUCH more. So you'd better get listening to this week's fun filled episode.

This week an unwell Gemma and James discuss their eventful week's while they have been away from each other.

Gemma gets the COVID-19 test done, results to be determined (but hopefully negative) due to her #Codswallop this week. James takes us on a quick trip to Car Corner and weather chat (desperate times haha). Gemma shares a weird and bonkers thing she does; do you do it as well? What happens when a man brushes too hard? Could he be staring on Pornhub next week? And why are the magpies in Australia re-enacting scenes from a classic Alfred Hitchcock film; The Birds? Do Australia need anymore deadly animals?....Nope. Asophadolskiopsy? Asophadol? Aso(blergh blergh blergh)iopsy? James struggles with a word, it's the highlight of Gemma's day...as it's normally her. 

Plenty of other things happened, but it's the morning, I'm tired and I can't think... what, do I need to do everything for you people? Why don't you just listen, then that way I won't need to write all of this stuff. :p Haha! I kid of course, I will always write stuff for the Salty Tadpoles. But seriously, do you come here to read or listen? #GawdDangIt! :p

This week Gemma had the true honour to speak to her favourite Ska Punk band; [Spunge]. The guys were just as bonkers as Gemma wanted them to be, but she managed to get some questions answers that she's always wanted to know like; what is kicking pigeon's all about? What's coming down the pipe line for [Spunge]? How has lockdown been? and what did Jarvis' dad want him to be when he grew up? He's definitely barking mad. All this, and SOOOOooooo much more. There are many laughs during this episode. 

If your new to [Spunge] check out their Facebook and Twitter handle @SpungeUK, be sure to let them know Talking Codswallop Podcast sent you and their website is spunge.co.uk.

Song at the end of the Episode: EGO by Spunge 

OK, so you can stop reading now, relax and let Gemma and the guys take you on a wild audio ride. Your not going to want to miss this one. 

BIG THANK YOU to Alex, Des, Jarvis and Jem for being guests this week; this has truly meant the world to me. You guys ROCK!!! \m/

The "incredible" Duo return to give you an episode full of unmic'd audio and snotty noses. Of course, we have some laughs along the way. Is that an exotic bird? What happens when you scold your crotch? Why is a doctors surgery getting erotic? Does James steal the punchline from Gemma?.... spoilers, yes he does, that B'stard. 

What else happens? Well... your going to have to stop reading and get listening. I'm convinced that 1/2 of you don't read these anyway. So aliens attack. Gemma and James switch body's in a "Freaky Friday" moment and then they solve all of life's problem... You're welcome. :p
