Five stars? I‘d give all the stars in the universe, and that would barely be enough. Stellar Matt and his all-star team are simply hilarious! Simon‘s gravitas, Suzi‘s wisdom and Holly‘s strict-but-fair approach perfectly complement Matt‘s all-forgiving greatness. As an Austrian living in Denmark, I’m not eligible to vote in the UK. But if Matt wants to become king of Denmark (or Austrian Kaiser), I‘d vote for him 😉
Just heard a rumour that the new years honours list has been leaked !! Low and behold, it appears King C is an avid listener! Who would of known? Knight of the realm status bestowed upon our favourite brother! Arise Sir Matthew of Gutterage ! May your subjects bow to your skewed morale compass & eternal forgiveness. I’m sure that the other members of the collective will be proud and grateful to be in the company of our newest ‘Sir’, and address him accordingly!
Love the pod. Keep it up.
I am so happy you’re back. This show should have infinity stars because it is the best. Matt is my favourite (sorry everyone) but I did find a mug in home bargains the other day that reminded me of Holly. It said “pasta la vista baby” 😂🤣 keep up the good work. Long may it continue xxxx
Love it when my phone pings to tell a new episode is ready, it’s like a little end of week treat! More accents though please from Father Simon, I’m quite sure no one would be offended! 10/10! X
Have been listening to Simon Mayo (and team) for decades and when I can’t catch the broadcast use this podcast to catch up and especially for the ‘restricted rating’ ones. Please keep up the good work. Thanks.
