Episode 328: Isle of Cats The Duel, Finspan, La Famiglia:The Great Mafia War
In this episode, Adrian, Joe and Banana are in the hot seat. Adrian, in his first episode back after the break, has lots to talk about. From his continued love of Age of Steam with his son and Mum, to channeling his inner Marlon Brando, and making offers they can’t refuse in La Famiglia. Joe is finally back online and setting up his “Board Game Bungalow”, while dabbling in a bit of feline rescue in Isle of Cats The Duel, all the while making sure that those cats stay well away from Adrian! Meanwhile, Dana Banana is excited to chat about her being a “Fan of the Span”, with her take on Finspan.
They also recap last week's Question of the Pod, all before sharing some news as to what's got them fired up!
