Tuna Boot

The reigns are passed on. The shackles of responsibility are lifted. The burden of podcast creating is sub-contracted out for this month's episode as we hand over to the incredible talent at Hang in There Calendars! We will hear from Gordo "The Visionary" Foster, Eddie "The Fixer" Carpenter (photographer) and Joey "The Top" Monsoon (editor). They will be talking us through the varied and fascinating decisions behind some of their m...

Did it go well? Yeah, it did ACTUALLY! The boys stormed it, with guest producer Lou keeping everything ticking along smooth.

We had ma...

It's the conclusion to a trilogy no one asked for, Liam invites us in for his new show "That's a Long Time Ago". Featuring a host of facts, dates and nonsense this is a bumper episode extravaganza. Dougal and Jim are pitted against each other daring to guess dates, while Liam slowly falls into drunkenness and cannot fathom how to end his own game. It's truly wonderful and all yours to enjoy in less time than it takes to get 2 hours...

It's almost Christmas and what better gift could you get than the Tuna Boot boys releasing a brand new episode. This time Dougal takes the reins and tests Jim and Liam's knowledge of some well known film quotes, with a Christmassy twist. It's a rip roaring adventure through the most snow sodden of landscapes. Who will win? Does it matter? Why do you still listen to this podcast? Did Dougal really promise to do socials again and the...

The agreesome threesome are back in action this week as season 7 ramps up a gear. Featuring 0% of the sound production of last month but 100% more Jim, this episode is a whale of a ride. Dougal and Liam are thrust into a game show Jim has came up with, trying to distinguish between fact and fiction. Who will emerge on top, with a better grasp of reality that t'other, only time will tell.

This week on Tuna Boot

Take a journey into the heart of the Darlam Jungle with Bad Egg Jones (a kiwi/american/scottish Dougal), Alfonse Du Bonse and Seanery Conn, as they attempt an ex...

Carve out a thirty minute slice of your day to listen to Jim clumsily read out loud!! Liam challenged the Tuna Boot boys to write one sentence a day for a year and create a short story. This is Jim's reading of Jim's story that Jim did...Jim. Yay, for Jim!!!!

It gets weird!

It's a rip-off of Dragon's Den. Except drunker.

This is the last chance to see Dougal's play "The Lady of The Loch" which ends its run on Saturday 12th. The play has been voted one of the Top Ten Homegrown Shows to see at The Edinburgh Fringe 2023 by The Edinburgh Evening News. We're very proud of our boy!

Liam has devised a brand new game. It involves making noises...Hearing is believing.

*AUDIO SOUND SONIC VOLUME WARNING*

Due to the sudden and loud nature of the game the audio volume will vacillate between being of hopefully a reasonable level to being a lot quieter. This is because there are explosions of sound and I didn't want anyone's eardrums to take a hammering. And, it is true, that in previous years I would have pa...

Get your denim and your oversized jumpers on (and whatever those hats are called (on)) because it's time to discuss all things 90's!!! Although mostly music.

Jim attempts (and somewhat fails) to make an interesting point about how decades change every 10 years. Or something. This is Jim typing right now and even after listening to it I'm not quite sure what I was on about. I also keep saying "you're hard" which is annoying. I ge...

Holy f****ng s**t we've been f*****g going for 3 years!!! Mad, eh! And we kick off the celebrations with stories of responsibility for children in our workplaces. Then we all literally phone each other. Discussions on being kicked by horses. Then Danny lets us know his favourite Tuna Boot episodes from our immense and horrifying back-catalogue. Where do love hearts come from? We also get to the bottom of that. It's actually not tha...

A nice feel-good ep. Basically, Jim was far too exhausted and terrified to edit the proper full episode this week. So it's just him talking to himself on his walk home from work. Apologies for sound issues/quietness. This isn't a vintage episode. If this is your first time to Tuna Boot we assure you it's usually different. Better? Difficult to say. But different certainly. There is at least one funny bit sneaked in.

It's a secret episode, the 6th one. Any it's nothing of what was promised. I was busy alright... but Dirk Shingles PI, Zombie Survivor and Letter Charrier is here to save the day... 10 minutes at a time.

The album of the week is actually singles:

Hozier - Eat Your Young, Francesca & Unknown/Nth.

Here it is, what you've all been waiting for... the fifth instalment of our secret episodes.

This time we're doing something different, and it involves a tiny little bit of dead air here and there. I would heartily suggest sticking through it all as you'll catch some very peculiar and extremely funny noises. If you would rather skip all that, you can jump to straight to 33m15s for the grand finale. This would, however, make the...

This week continues our look into the mental breakdown of Dougal as he reads things Jim and Liam sent him.

I just noticed that Jim reads emails was our 3 year anniversary episode... So with very little left to describe I'll say thanks for listening to us for over 3 years now. Maybe we will catch the 200th episode. It's only 41 episodes away now.

As I type this I've just found out the A900 to Leith is closed...may God have mer...
