Hello hello it’s Sunday! I think I want to put out episodes Sundays and Wednesdays now but pls let me know if you have a preference!

Amongst the solo episodes where I’m BLABBERING ALL ALONE, I thought it could be fun to sprinkle in a few ‘phone a friend’ where I either call a friend to discuss reddit stories or even potentially have a listener phone call so we can really get into their stories!!

This week I&...

This week I had another one of my best friends join me, brilliant stand up comedian and return guest, former host of the mugg off, Cameron Duggan!
