Ed & Matthew (aka Crunch & Crumble) are bringing top quality comedy to your Sunday mornings (8am - 11am). Tune in for film reviews, sports news, phone-ins, excuses, puns, quizzes, facts about catfish, and an education in heavy metal. No, really. It’s like a proper weekend breakfast show, but presented by two comedians with relatively little radio experience. But it’s better than it sounds.

  • The perfect level of stupid

    The individual people behind the show are clearly at least marginally intelligent and well-informed, so this isn't dumb in a sad way. It's just silly. Somehow less than the sum of its parts in an entirely acceptable fashion.

  • Used to be my favorite podcast!

    Unfortunately, Matthew has become obsessed with doing an awful, unfunny Donald Trump impression, pretty much at random in nearly every episode. That guy is literally the worst human, and it’s a depressing buzzkill every time you choose to put him in my ear.
