The Moon Under Water

“Landlord John lines up the putt. If he can make this then he is sure to be crowned the winner of the Mists of Desire Open. The ball sways from left to right, it’s heading to the centre of the cup… and it’s in! John wins the most prestigious golfing tournament in the further realm, and he’s off to the bar to celebrate!”. 

No, The Moon Under Water doesn’t host it’s own golf tournament; but if it did it’d certainly feature this week’s guest. It’s Rick Shiels!

Rick is the biggest golf influencer on YouTube with almost 3 million subscribers! But one thing that not many people know is that he’s equally happy sinking pints as he is putts. He’s about to create his own ‘Pub of the Mind’, and we can’t wait to hear what it’s like.

*This is part 2 of Phil Wang’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

The Moon Under Water has been lucky enough to play host to some of the greatest Pubsmen of all time. Those people that have experienced every type of establishment, no matter where or what it stocks. 

Phil is a comedian, writer, and host of the smash-hit podcast ‘BudPod’ (no, it’s not a rival beer-themed podcast). But most of all Phil is an expert on old-time pubs. He wants his pubs to be poorly lit but well stocked, and you can be sure that his ‘Pub of the Mind’ will reflect his preferences.

It's Phil Wang!

*This is part 2 of Scroobius Pip’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

As wordsmiths of the Further Realm Landlord John and Robin are both familiar with alehouse lexicon. Whether it be “Handeth me thyne flagon of ale good Sir” or “Pint of numbers please big man”, they understand that pubs and words go hand in hand. This week’s guest spent the early years of his career mastering the art of writing and performance (though probably sounding less like a 15th century Lord), and we can’t wait to welcome him in: it’s Scroobius Pip!

Scroobs is a podcaster, actor and former spoken word poet and former member of Dan le Sec Vs Scroobius Pip. He’s the host of the amazing Distraction Pieces, and anyone who listens will be familiar with the fact that he’s no stranger to the amber nectar, as demonstrated in his Drunkcasts. But what will his dream pub look like? What will it sound, feel, smell and taste like? He’s ready to head into The Moon Under Water, so we’re about to find out.

*This is part 2 of Sofie Hagen’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

Though Denmark is known for being rather steep when it comes to alcohol pricing that hasn’t stopped it from producing some of the finest Pubgoers of all time. This week we are delighted to be in the presence of one such legend; it’s comedian, author, activist and podcaster Sofie Hagen!

Sofie grew up in Denmark before making the UK her home a few years ago, and was quick to acclimatise herself in the best pubs this country has to offer. However, there’s one burning question that she has been asking herself for years: “Hvad er forskellen mellem en pub og en bar?”. Thankfully Landlord John and Robin are on hand to help answer that, as well as help her build her dream tavern.

*This is part 2 of Laura Thompson’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

Authors play a huge role in maintaining pub lore. Their words help us understand what our favourite drinking establishments were like in years gone by, and give us a chance to relive what many would describe as the "golden years" of ale. This week's guest is one such author, it's the wonderful Laura Thompson!

Laura's book "The Last Landlady" already sits upon a shelf in the Pub Library, so we're over the moon with her joining us in the correct realm. Like John and Robin she is a true pub romanticist, and she's certainly going to create something special.
