Loving this podcast! On my second round of listening now and so gutted the final episodes aren’t released for Harry Potter as i was enjoying them so much!
Im a big fan of the negative reviews of this podcast being those who have been politically offended.
Grow up, you snowflakes.
Loads of fun. Simple as.
Many years later and my comment about sixth form politics still smarts doesn’t it Mr Award winner?
Still, well done lads on finally getting round to taking the mick out of Starmer just as he’s half out the door.
Original Review
I’ll wait until Banyabat clears up the audio and removes the sixth form politics. Then it will be worth listening to.
Can the pod producer please either edit out Tom Neenan's laughter or have a word with him about how incessant it is? Love the pod but I skip any episodes with him in them because it's just so grating.
Lovely job
