My go to, funny and wholesome
I do like the podcast but I am mainly using the review to address the negative comments about Ads.
The podcast is free. The content costs money to make. Therefore ads are an annoying but necessary evil to continue the podcast.
We accept ads on TV, on social media, so why not here. Without ads there would need to be a paywall to allow the show to wash its face! Is that what you want? If so the good news is thats almost certainly on the horizon, (if it’s not already an option ) as with most popu... more
Id like a drink with that Elis but I don't fancy his standup.
Can we please stop using that word it’s like when all football commentators started saying ‘with aplomb’ a few years ago.
It just sounds wanky.
Soz, love the show.
I’ve listened since the beginning and will probably still carry on catching up with these 3 chaps but it’s a constant chat now about money! Not near as funny anymore, and the ads are dreadful.

The show centers on two British hosts who trade rapid-fire banter, personal anecdotes, and audience-interactive bits like Made Up Games and Cymru Connection. Episodes weave in running, touring life, book talk, and pop-culture riffs, with occasional guests and cheeky interludes that mix heartfelt reflections with self-deprecating humor. Noteworthy are the long-running segments, crowd engagement, and a willingness to pivot between lighthearted games and more polished interviews or quick-fire Q&A, all delivered in a warm, informal style that rewards listener familiarity and participation.
