Also catching up on my commute this morning and just heard the Radcliffe anecdote - can confirm he’s a fucking creep and tried to talk me and a pal into a threesome at a festival, shortly after recounting us with a tale which included a description of childbirth as ‘like watching your favourite pub burn down’.

I've just listened to John and Lou Sanders on the Valentines Day Cuddle Club and while I was previously a #shaggingtruther now I am not so sure...

When is the new format starting?
Confirmed on today's show - in a confusing way - it'll be early Feb, but think there will be a break after Christmas until then as John is burnt out after his tour.

It'll be podcasts on Friday and Tuesday, with highlights from the previous week on the radio Fridays 1-2.

Elis said on the FB group that they will still be recording them at the same time so they will still have Adrian Chiles on for anyone who loves those bits. All sounds a bit odd and is a bit of a thing for the BBC to pay them out of a different budget.

To be honest I love them but always thought they'd be taken off 5Live after a year as it doesn't really fit the station at all!

What are people listening to, to fill the void before The Big Reset? Need some podcast recommendations please! Something that is easy to listen and doesn’t focus too much on the current state of the world (but not Crunch+Crumble or three bean salad) xxxx
I enjoy The Rabbit Hole Detectives and The Rest is Entertainment.

PCD FB group is nuts ATM :p

My now husband moved in after about the same length of time, and it was a “when you know you know”. I agree, he seems happier, even just in his chats with Elis he doesn’t seem as snappy as he once did? Hoping for all good things for JR

Alas I’m not watching so any précis of the evening most welcome!
The “presents for us” comment made me wonder if they knew each other before they got together

Amen!

Ivo has just joined asen is moving around like a toddler on haribo. Lou was better than normal and said her wishes for 2024 are to get her clit sucked and world peace. That’s the roundup so far!
Yes… She did literally say that 😂

I bet there will be some PCD'ers who join every whatsapp community to avoid the fomo

ETA - sorry sorry sorry... I've corrected it to say community not a group (as has been corrected many times)

Hopefully the double pods will make the time between now and TM go a lot quicker because I am too excited for it

Yeah that’s interesting because he often talks about how he doesn’t have paternal urges etc.

As someone who has just been through IVF… it’s a brutal ride, even when it ends well.
Indeed, which is why it came as a surprise.
bloody loved seeing that game of potato potato btw. Legends.

My people!

What a vibe to have finally found you all! I don't have FB and I don't think there's a massive twitter following (than say there is for Elis's distant pod podcast guys).

I was introduced to them by my ex full time F round about the time they were leaving XFM. I listened to an episode but wasn't sure about them so gave up. I then gave them anorher shot then got back into them in a BIG way. Some may say the obsession is real.

I absolutely think John is breaking my heart by dating Lou. I mentioned that to the ex months ago. Also thought he and Coco were an odd couple.

Darkness of Robins was amazing, and I saw Hot Shame live which was excellent. He is indeed niche but he is so clever with it.

On the other hand, I absolutely adore Elis too. I will literally watch anything and everything he does and I would quite happily listen to him reading the phone book.

For everyone's sake, don't get me started on my inappropriate crush on Producer Dave.

Without going too FB group about it, I'm so glad I gave them another go because they are a proper comfort for me now. When my ex and I split up I was really worried that I wouldn't be able to listen to them any more (we used a lot of their sayings and mannerisms (the shouting etc)). I don't have anyone else who listens to them so I really worried I'd struggle not having anyone to say "oh how funny was that this week" but I actually found it such a comfort. They kept me company throughout it and I'm grateful for that.
Oh, you sweet angel ❤ They keep me company too, I noodle about life with them chatting away at me.

I might have to abandon the past and come join you in the present. I love gossip and need to assess this Lou Sanders situation.

Any chance we can get a look at the photos? I really didn't want another calendar in my life, but I really want to see the pics! ;)
I'll try and remember this evening.

Re Lou, I think she had a day out to the coast with Coco last year as it was on Instagram. So they're obviously still pretty close (or maybe she knew Coco first and introduced them?!).

Oh legends I’m absolutely gutted. TMUW spoilers below.
no more Johnny JR on TMUW. I feel like this is a long time coming but I’m no less gutted to lose my favourite pod. I really feel for the lovely Robin too. What a shame. Obviously I understand that an alcoholic running a pub podcast was never going to continue long term, but for some reason given that John had managed for 8 months I thought somehow it would defy my cynicism.

yes, I know I’m talking about a podcast but it’s the only one me and my FTBF listen to together. I know people who have been on it. I’ve loved the music. The guests. Everything. RIP TMUW.

Triple posting like a twat but here’s the lowdown for non Patreons. See how easy it is to pause a Patreon when you’re not providing content, Jack Scammer Monroe?

Ah bless him, but it just didn't work. Al Murray saying how good Johnny JRs relationship with alcohol is was intensely awkward.
