#393 - High Budget Dreams, Smacks of Mellor and That Fried Tuesday Feeling
This is sierras of the papas broadcasting, and news just in: we’re all out of papas!John’s losing his voice because of doing an extraordinary impression of an Australian in a mystical Bureau de Change for some BBC Sounds bonus content, but we plough on! And in a way, this is the definition of ‘talent’, which we discover that Tim Davie is keen to define.Elsewhere, there’s a classic Made Up Game, Elis (Patient Father and Nice Friend) James does some keepy uppies and Dave engages in a stag where he’s actually early for Match of The Day.The Bureau has been mentioned here already, but if you’re missing out, then you’re missing out on bonus content described by listener Kate as “Perhaps the funniest but most bizarre 15 minutes of radio I’ve listened to in 57 years.” And where can you get it? BBC Sounds of course, with episodes titled ‘Sounds Bites’ on our feed.And if you’re not on it then get on it: [email protected]. Or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp. ‘It’ clearly being email.

#392 - Not Letting Down 750 GPs, The Jet2 Prerogative and Sophie Duker
“All suffering is resistance to suffering” is soon followed by “we are technically a comedy podcast” on the show today. So it’s clearly another banter filled hour or so which covers the hilarious fodder of regret, gratitude and whether you should tell your BF that you’ve got a billiard room.It’s all good stuff as Dave is pressured into doing stand up (again as he will never give). Also an 8 year old believes the show is now a “bum surgery podcast” and the lovely Sophie Duker pops along.There’s also some great emails from vicars. Thanks revs.Keep your eyes peeled for the bonus episode Saturday morning, only available on BBC Sounds. And it’s a classic.To contact the show OR the Bureau then email [email protected] or WhatsApp us on 07974 293 022.

#391 - Egg on Cord, Perpetual Tennis and A Very Successful Brown Owl
There are records today for pre-Cymru Connection heads in hands as Britain’s clumsiest Welsh language comic gets all sorts of muck over himself. Amidst such mess there’s only one thing that can carry Elis James through: A songwriting talent to rival Lennon & McCartney at their peak.This brings the return of the classic 'Dorking, Leatherhead, Ryegate’ - one for the purists. And speaking of stuff for the purists - and defenders of terrestrial radio’s most divisive feature - DI Robbyns also makes a surprise appearance for one courtroom session only in a game which slightly baffles its participants.Want to get in touch with the show with everything from ditties to deep introspective reflections to rival de Beauvoir and Wittgenstein? Well [email protected] or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp are the relevant destinations.

#390 - Annsbie, We Lube Up and The Hypothetical Widow Tour 2025
“Purgatory is nothing. This is hell.” You’ll never guess which presenter’s mouth that inspiring line came out of today.Well if you want a clue perhaps you might be able to tell that John has had a bum setback. But we lube up, we go again, and we create content. Though he has bifurcated into two - spiritual gas John and physical John - in order to remain zen.But let’s not continue on that bum note, because there are other bum notes to be played, for there’s a quite astonishing email from a listener determined to break a record.We also hear from the sisters of Stansbie and John’s widow is floated around the room along with the prospect of Elis getting hammered online for not reading his eulogy in Falkirk.To get in touch with all your Annsbies, and preferably not your gaseous world records - someone’s got to read the emails - then it’s [email protected] or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp.

#389 - Big Leg, The Cymdown Connection and Plugged Into His Router Just For You
The term ‘firing on all cylinders’ was invented for 72 minutes of audio just like this, because your beautiful boys really are firing on every one of the Content V8 today. And that’s all despite John having some flakey skin on his elbow.That’s eight powerful cylinders for you. On Cylinder One we’ve got 'unlocking the corporate secrets of eggs'. Cylinder Two: The Novelli Protocol. Three: More eggs. Four *&* Five: The art of navigating Buckinghamshire’s beautiful pharmacy women. Six: Dua Lipa being the youngest person John can name. Seven: A thrilling man from Burry Port. And Eight: Hawaiian themed Chinese restaurants.If only the BBC’s in-house cylinder limits* didn’t prevent yet more powerful content thrust. But rules are rules.If you would like to pour fuel into the engine then [email protected] and 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp are the respective fuel holes.*These limits were introduced in 2008, after one positively scorching V10 piece of content on The One Show. An unnamed presenter tried to compare all pies in the West Bromwich area all within a four minute VT which smashed all recommended safety guidelines.
