Restless Natives is a cult Scottish film from 1985 featuring two scallywags – The Clown & The Wolfman. It’s iconic. Two resourceful rascals who take on the ambitious task of holding-up tourist buses in the Highlands… They were Robin Hood, only Scottish and on the back of a motorbike. Gordon Smart & Martin Compston are sampling that spirit - inspired by The Clown & The Wolfman - and distilling it i... more

Banterful podcast that is the best cure for any hangover fear. Will miss this so much.
Hi gents
I’m a wee bit behind right now and currently playing catch up.
Just listened to the ones with Aldo Kane.
What a life this man has had.
I’m sure it’s not all been fun but far more interesting than mine.
I used to think a night out with Robert De Nearly and Civilian Chris would be great but I’m no longer interested unless you bring Foxy and Aldo.
Sorry guys.
Live in NSW Australia. Originally from Linlithgow. I love listening to your podcast every week. I’m a nurse and listen driving into work. Always puts a big smile on my face and the banter is fab. Miss that over here!!
I have been a listener since the beginning and am proudly one of the 49 listeners who originate from England.
If you enjoy banter between two great characters (even if the civilian one is surviving purely on national treasure Martin Compston generously spraying his stardust all over him..) then this is the podcast for you.
Great guests and laughs along the way and I love how the lads won’t shy away from the important issues as well.
In my opinion it is the perfect podcast to lose yourself wh... more
