    Slightly lost its way with topics etc. Still some good laughs but episodes hit and miss now.

    Always find it slightly weird the amount of stories about hurt/killed animals which Colson seems to enjoy a little too much.

    He’s also very much turning in to Alan Partridge as he tries to stay relevant.

  • BEST PODCAST!

    I shouldn’t really say this but I’ve literally ditched the other podcasts I used to listen to for this one because they don’t compare lol. The banter between them all is just so fun to listen to and I love hearing about what they get up to during the week (especially the animal encounters 🐶) the way they dissect the movies/tv shows they watch is outstanding (I recommend watching all the past episodes as well as the new) also the patreon is worth subscribing to for the community aspect alone! more

    Discovered the pod when Colson did bb. I started with a few random eps and they made me laugh out loud so went back and started from the beginning. All 3 of you are so funny together and I know every episode will make me laugh. Absolutely smashing it lads!

  • Loved it

    Love this podcast have been listening since day one and still laugh out loud. Do miss some of the old features but like that they keep adding new bits too. The raw honesty through Colson’s exit journey has been a hard listen at times but the friendship and support they share is clear to hear. Looking forward to next live show

    This used to be my favourite podcast, but they literally talk about nothing now, how it’s gone from a 10/10 to a 2/10 is a shambles, less Coulson more Bertie as well
