  • Loveable Muppets

    Short-changed again by the one who edited the podcast.

    Was looking forward to hearing the reaction of the boys to the England - DR Congo game.

    IT WAS NOT INCLUDED!

    That got you one star!

  • Loveable Muppets

    “We don’t know anything “

    From Bush’s mouth comes the truth about these two loveable muppets.

    They are entertaining with Richie constantly using the word ironic, when ironically it is not!

    Bush using his Star Wars references, “Leia getting a lift back to Alderaan just to find it an asteroid field “ , when she wasn’t even on the Millennium Falcon when this happened!

    Like I say , idiots that know nothing but very lovable idiots all the same.

  • The one about the amazing cup of tea.

    The one star is a rating of the production quality of the podcast.

    Could you please employ a producer to produce a professional quality podcast?

    If you don’t know what I mean, listen to this episode and a few Others, then you will understand.
