Ricky Gervais is our guest this week, talking all things Alley Cats, and yes, it’s an animated show, but a very very adult one. We’re also celebrating James’ absence with another two-hander between Boyd and Kay who together review Possession with Gug... more

So enjoyed today’s pod, great interview; with great empathy; and a fantastic heated argument at the end. Steph is a wonderful, funny and intelligent addition.
Apple Podcasts5cabbie66United Kingdom20 days ago I would listen but it's too long. I listen to the must watch BBC podcast instead. Shorten it and I'll listen.

Love listening to this podcast. The banter is hilarious and really great to know what they’ve been watching
Apple Podcasts5AdjeteyUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Is losing it

Please replace Steph - she is insufferable
