Can you build a canoe out of growing mushrooms? This question and more answered in The Virtual Pub - the perfect podcast for those who miss going to the pub in this particular pandemic.
On this week's episode:
- We pick pricks from the news of the week - including the boss of Ryanair, a twitch streamer shaming fans into paying her and DC Comics for waving a middle finger to social distancing laws.
- Some good news gets shared, to remind you all is not terrible - including an EXCLUSIVE scoop on an Animal Crossing wedding, growing a canoe out of mushrooms and the amazing charity work of the Scouts.
- And we reminisce about discontinued drinks in our uni days with the first ever guest in The Virtual Pub - Mark Adams who hosts the podcast "Don't Say The C Word"
