Straight from the Hot Tap

Matt Baty

This podcast is definitely unique. The concept, 4 old friends and a member of the Cheshire landed gentry discuss growing up in a town they no longer live in, really shouldn't work. Yet here we are. Join the hosts as they take a surreal, irreverent walk through modern life, the Administrative Centre of Somerset, strange animal encounters and a load more. There is even some serious content.

  • Small Town Charm

    The topics on this podcast vary from episode to episode. They sometimes have guests on to chat about whatever subject happens to come up. Some notable episodes have touched on parenting, politics, pubs, and princes. Though this show centers (or centres, depending on where you’re reading this) around friends from a small town in England, I feel that anyone who grew up in a close-knit community can indulge in the nostalgia.

  • I feel British

    As an American, I feel like I’m sitting eavesdropping on a Zoom chat with 4 friends who are much more ✨ cultured ✨ than me! It’s funny and I have learned a lot about European dynamics 😂

  • 81% irreverence, 19% serious conversation, 73% comic, 19% accurate. Join this group of old school friends, all of whom have followed diverse life and career paths, as they portray their views on life now and life when they grew up together. Loosely based on their experiences of Taunton, it has a broad reach covering a lot of common ground that many people will relate to, or at least enjoy being on the ride. Intermittent giggling guaranteed.

  • This podcast is a very strange blend of comedy and serious content with some sort of odd reference point of a town the hosts don't live in. Great fun.
