The Moon Under Water

Robbie has been galavanting across Europe in an attempt to drink in as many countries as he can in one day. How many did he do? How far did he get? You'll have to listen (then watch his upcoming YouTube video...) to find out.

Elsewhere, there's a lengthy debate about the boundaries of Lincolnshire, reflection on a viral clip with previous Moon Under Water guest and house builder extraordinaire Kevin McCloud, and the revelation that there are hidden tanks under a cricket pitch in the City of London!? Oh, and if any cartographers are listening, we want to hear from you.

Renowned etiquette expert William Hanson is in the building to put together his dream pub. The fine bone China has been dusted, the sleepy drunk in the corner has done up his fly and chatter is at a noticeably restrained level. William has brought a welcome refined edge to the Moon Under Water today.

The co-host of the veritably successful Help I Sexted My Boss podcast has some very strident views on what is good and proper, and thankfully is also a right riot.

Though not the most natural pub beast William has a very personal, funny and precise establishment he pieces together including a quite revolutionary choice on draught.

If you’ve got some thoughts on William’s choices then send it all to [email protected].

Captain! Beef ahoy on the horizon! Well maybe not prime boeuf, but a critical email sets Robbie’s tongue a-wagging on the Notice Board today as questions of the integrity of his pub challenge quest are thrown up. We also hear of some intense Irish pub crawling practices for the upcoming festive season.

Plus dive bars are thrown into the mix along with lament for the lack of landlord ship for ex-footballers in the modern age.

Grand Designs’ honcho-in-chief is in to build his dream pub. A fixture of our screens for many a decade, when he’s not casting his eye over the architectural triumphs and disasters of overly ambitious couples, Kevin McCloud is in his local.

And Kevin is someone who absolutely oozes enthusiasm informed by a life well lived. From his own orchards, to tales of whiskey on expenses tabs of the distant past, his dream pub is informed by a litany of stories and knowledge.

Do Reverends and pubs go together? This week's guest answers this question with an emphatic yes, as The Moon Under Water opens its doors to its very first member of the church, Reverend Kate Bottley. Kate talks about the deep links between priest and pub. She reveals how she once cancelled evening church services to host a pub quiz, and spills the communion wine on what priests use for communion wine.

There's also talk of consecrating jägerbombs, trying out coffins at trade shows, and monks bringing cases of beer to Kate's door.

A reminder that The Moon Under Water will now be serving up guest episodes in one helping; think of it as one stronger pint as opposed to two halves.

It's a bumper week of pubbing for Robbie as he sails past the 130 pubs in a year mark. Quite impressive for a man who doesn't like late nights. Unsurprisingly, such unfettered pub-going leads to some serious questioning from Dan.

And after last week's intriguing drink suggestion, Robbie and Dan try another strange drink sent in by a listener. They also discuss the country's ultimate pub crawl, and read out some heavyweight applications for listener Pub Correspondent roles.

Sketch comic, the lovely George Lewis, has now built his dream pub (see the previous episode for that), so now it’s time for head into even more that will round off the experience of walking into The Stumbling Turkey.

There’s some Oasis oneupmanship, talk of strapping wine to oneself and a very observant thing for George to bar from his pub. Plus there’s a quiz that parents will thrive at.

George is @georgelewiscom on Instagram, and is touring his stand up show throughout autumn and into the new year. But tickets are sparse!

Want to share anything with The Moon Under Water? Or maybe you’ve got some thoughts on something George has had to say. Well it can feature on our weekly Pub Notice Boards. Just email [email protected] to get in touch.
