Hayley and Barry and back, face to face this time, doing the usual but taking several people down with them as well. This episode has audio that has been enhanced with AI to remove an echo in the room so you may notice a slight difference. The content however is of the usual fair to middling, occasionally offensive, standard. Get more at patreon.com/theworriers

The wheels have come off completely this episode; Barry has been in the garden all day and didn't drink any water in blazing sunshine and Hayley has barely slept for 24 hours. The result is this absolute mess where you can actually hear the breakdowns beginning before it descends into babbling and randomly ringing people to waste their time. Warning: features horrific impressions. We deeply apologise.
