He was much better than I’d expected, it was a spur of the moment decision to go on my own and it was great! But I’d never noticed before then. I do prefer him to Lou I think though, he’s a bit more low key!

Love that you went on your own!!

Sorry if I’ve highlighted something no one else noticed before

ha no not comedy, beer related groups which are a bit toxic at the best of times anyway

Fascinating. I LEFT the beer groups years ago because of the toxicity on there. It actually somewhat frustrates me that two cis white males (JR and RA) don't use TMUW to talk about breweries run by marginalised folk & those not hugely represented in the beer scene. This, coupled with copious mentions of fucking brewdog, tiny rebel etc, particularly in the beginning, pissed me off. There are SO many fantastic breweries that they could be shouting about, but alas. Was great to hear Sam Smith's get their comeuppance in one episode tho!

Anyone listen to crunch and crumble and hear prod Vin make a little dig at next years format in bec recs?

Oooo no spill

Has anyone listened to this week’s podcast? What do you think the big announcement will be?

I wondered if it was about Made Up Games? They’d done the live shows with industry folk invited, so maybe it’s been commissioned?

What is wrong with people!!

Moderation or total abstinence? Adrian Chiles and John Robins talk honestly about their drinking

Moderation or total abstinence? Adrian Chiles and John Robins talk honestly about their drinking

Their relationship with booze has taken these friends and broadcasters on very different journeys. Here they discuss what constitutes heavy drinking, successful moderation – and when it is time to give up altogether

www.theguardian.com

Reading between the lines a lot here, but is it just me that feels like JR is telling Adrian he’s basically an alcoholic around the middle part? Seems to then claw it back around the time he starts talking in terms of having two drinks then stopping. Thought it was an interesting piece but it could have been more thorough and to the point. Feels a bit ‘so what’.

They literally had a female Dave on the Dave feature this week. They’ve had female callers. What are you wanting? More Lou (not sure anyone wants that)

Alright! I was clear what date I’m on. One Davina since the reset is not good enough.

Have you seen this? It's so funny (note how much they've had to drink at the beginning of the clip!! I think John has stopped drinking rum now?):

 

[Phil I Buster]

I had the same thought

Welcome! I used to be in Sidebar but left about a year ago? When I got in it was very easy to get into and then yes, it became ridiculous IIRC. It was a nice wee crowd. Secret Santas were a highlight

I think someone suggested it could be a place folk from the main group could join and they were shut RIGHT down.

Too funny!

Come join us lurker, we’re good eggs we promise!

Lurkers!!! BD posted & SB commented they’d seen it …clearly didn’t think it through

I know what you mean… it feels a bit of a character to me - the bumbling posh guy. He’s so pretty, though, so I forgive him . Especially on Task Master when I can actually see his face

There was one bit where John did his character and he sounded just like Ivo 2 minutes before. However, he has redeemed himself somewhat with Yo Shoeshi

Having a very Elis and John adjacent evening tonight. Just watched the Ronnie OSullivan documentary and now just going to watch a documentary about the story of XFM. Might throw on my broadly fine tshirt and keep it session too and go all in!

Ooh can you share the X doc? Sounds great

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’.

Daniel Radcliffe?! Sorry I’ve not listened yet.

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...

Oh really! I haven't listened to it, what do you reckon?

 

[welshgirl2021]

Oh I can. John going to Tebay for Hogmanay is the most on brand thing. As Elis said “he’s not a character act!”

Agreed… but I meant saying live on a radio show

 

[Slop n slide]

Will anyone be going to see Elis & John at the o2 this Sunday?

Not me, sadly. I am seeing him soon but not the o2. Enjoy!

 

[welshgirl2021]

In the Facebook group?! Have we been discovered

Yep
