Bit Weird but Fair Enough (I Guess)

Monty slips into the Bit Weird studio to talk to Stu about weird stuff relating the world of TV. They talk weird ideas for shows, Rob Zombie directing an unexpected episode, the worst informercial product and licensing laws before the whole conversation descends into figuring out which TV stars got arrested for fighting with hookers. Please do yourself a favour and set aside a day to explore whatever you can find on the shows we talk about like Cop Rock, Manimal, Mr Ed, Early Edition etc on Youtube.

The final installment of the "What's the Go with Weird Stuff?" specials. We have charted the rise of a very odd podcast - now this is the decline. The Stu and Monty version of the "What's the Go?" podcast on its last legs. Do we have tangents though? You bet your least favourite nipple we do. We have tangents from inside the car, we have tangents from outside the car, we even have a tangent so tangential it is from another podcast altogether. Hope you liked these - they make me laugh anyway.....P.S. - These clips were recorded in 2021 so obvs the Queen was still alive.FOLLOW THE BIT WEIRD SOCIALS IF YOU ARE TOO NUTTY TO HAVE DONE SO ALREADY!FacebookInstagramTwitterIf you want to hear more of "What's The Go?" it's on your fave pod app or you can click this: https://podfollow.com/whats-the-goYou can follow the "What's The Go?" social here:FacebookInstagramTwitter Hosted on Acast.

In another Bit Weird special - more odd bits from the "What's The Go?" podcast.In the second year of WTG, Stu and Monty took the show on the road - quite literally - and only recorded podcasts while they were driving to and from work.The sound quality wasn't the best, but the content? Also not the best.Despite the complete lack of respect for the listeners, the show carried on through many a journey with just as many bizarre tangents as previously, except now there were also things to distract Monty outside the car that he wanted to talk about.Let me know on the "Bit Weird but Fair Enough (I Guess)" socials if you thought this worked or if it was just gibberish!FacebookInstagramTwitterIf you want to hear more of "What's The Go?" it's on your fave pod app or you can click this: https://podfollow.com/whats-the-goYou can follow the "What's The Go?" social here:FacebookInstagramTwitter Hosted on Acast.

Hi Weirdos!Back in 2020 (at around the same time this little ol' pod started) Stu and Bit Weird regular Monty started a podcast called 'What's The Go?".
