Episode 62 - The Quiz of 2009
Do you remember the big events of 2009? Or anything that happened? Well Gary devised a quiz, just a simple little quiz, to test Patrick and I on our knowledge of the years events. We knew nothing. Well that's not quite true, Patrick knew about Jedward and answered most questions with them, I...

Episode 61 - Jedwood are the real winners
Well bloody typical, London's weather was like Russia in the weeks before Christmas, but do we get a white Christmas? No, the snow didn't even have the decency to lay about. It sarcastically melted away. Anyhow it managed to cause chaos on the Eurostar when people were trapped overnight in the...

Hillary would have knocked those sheikhs on the head by now
We do think that everything went to Hell in a Handcart when more and more beeping sounds and flashing lights came into our lives. Now you may well press the wrong key on your keyboard, or make an error, but the computer can’t just politely put a message on the screen, oh no, it has to rudely beep...

Episode 59 - Which one has the better pickles?
Could class war save Gordon Brown? Referring to David Cameron's policies as being devised "On the playing fields of Eton" The PM delivered a sterling performance in the House. Some say it is career saving. Patrick of course things the comment is tedious, but, to give him credit, he also thinks...

Episode 58 - Squirrels lay in wait for a dog
Squirrels lay in wait for a dog. Then they attacked him and ate him. I kid you not. Is this a terrible omen? A la Stephen King? In fact these are mutant ninja squirrels. Living in Russia, and clearly affected by all the nuclear fallout there. And they say nuclear power is the answer to our energy...

Episode 56 - Jon Bon Jovi ate my hamster
Did you know that being grumpy is a good thing? Of course we did, it's our modus operandi after all. It has now been officially proven by proper scientific research. When you are grumpy, even better if the sun isn't shining, you are better at decision making and just generally more intelligent.…

Episode 54 - And that is why you will never fly again
I wonder how many poets Nick Griffin can name? Over half of primary school teachers couldn't name more than two. This seems rather alarming, given that they are supposed to have attained a good level of education themselves, not to mention their role in shaping our next generation. I can…

Episode 57 - The wireless with pictures
Well I hope you weren't under the impression that the X Factor is a talent show? We know it isn't. It's why we love the Jedward after all. It's a show demonstrating how to put cash into the pockets of Simon Cowell. You see he knew that his preferred format, that is where the public file past and...

Episode 55 - Nevermind Jedwood - Rate my Kitten!
Gary has decided that the world went to Hell in a handcart when the internet became more easily accessible. We are nostalgic for the days of dial up. When you could make a cup of tea and do your ironing whilst waiting for the email that your friend has sent with a picture of their cat to…

Episode 53 - 'If it's not about Albanian lesbians in the 20s I'm not interested'
Patrick thinks that if you read The Daily Mail, you get what you pay for and there is no point complaining if you are offended. He is cynical about the angry mob of the Twitterati. As you probably know, Patrick isn't a fan of the tweetings of Fry and co. Now Gary and I however, well we aren't…

Episode 52 - 'What were they thinking'
So Obama has won the Nobel Peace Prize because he might make a contribution to some kind of peace type of thing, some time in the future. I'm sure you, dear listener, will be delighted to know that all three of us have won Nobel Prizes. Oh yes. It's for things that we might do in the future. Just...

Episode - 51 - What can we expect from Superdave?
Back for season 2 and have we learnt any lessons at all? No sign of that this week. Patrick's summer was positively ruined by drag behind suitcases, he just can't let it go. Move on Patrick! Take your suitcase and move on. We are very excited by conference season. The Lib Dems, had a conference,...

Episode 50 - Tired and emotional
Did you know that it was Poland’s fault that they were invaded by the Nazi’s and the Russians in 1939? From both sides? That’s according to Putin, who is very busy concentrating on his modeling career, so who can blame him for the rather wacky view of history. So it’s 70 years since the outbreak…

Episode 49 - A bunch of fives
We recorded this just before Scotland went all Braveheart on the world, so you may have to wait a week or so until you know what to think about that situation. Really sorry. Anyhow we had some lighter subjects, like cancer. Yes, it seems the list of what can cause cancer is never ending, and the...

Episode 48 - 'She's like a pit pony'
Did you know that Vladimir Putin is a torso model? Seriously. He specialises in horseback riding poses, but any rugged pose will do. The pictures aren't camp either, because he is Russian, and they don't have camp in Russia. Please don't break our podcast Mr Putin. Yes, he got upset, you see some...

Episdoe 47 - This is not America
Lord Mandelson, we are here to remind you that you don't need to leave the House of Lords to be Prime Minister, it's only a convention. Yes it may be 100 years since we had our last Lord Prime Minister, but why give up all those magnificent titles? Of course the best title is unofficial "Prince…

Episode 46 - 'He stepped out of the shower and it was all just a dream'
Is Lembit Opik a sex God? This is the only possible answer for his success with cheeky girls, and now a bra model, 23 years his junior. In other pressing philosophical questions, what is Art? Do you think we actually know? Well the Pope has criticised an exhibition in Glasgow that gives the…

Episode 45 - overfamiliar sales people
Patrick is still unable to forgive Tom Chambers for winning Strictly Come Dancing last year, so much so that he seems to now be irrationally blaming him for everything. This week we broadcast "live" from the Jade Goddy memorial dining room in Patrick's palatial South London manor house. We…
