    I love your podcast and you are my favourite comedians. I’ve managed to see both of you live. Suzi at Fareham live and Tom, at the Kings in Portsmouth. It’s such joy the catch you both on other Podcasts and recently heard Suzi on ‘Walking The Dog’ in Brighton. ( I think Whippets malt)

    Suzi, I thought it was you in Dept. Q but it was doppelgänger actress Chloe Pirrie. Check her out.

    I look forward to listening to you both weekly

    Could see myself still listening to these two chattering away of a lunchtime ‘til the day I turn 112 - assuming they’re still releasing episodes at that point.
