Episodes

  1. S8 Ep195: CONCLUSION

    Just how bad was Wire’s performance at Old Trafford? Strap in, because Rob still hasn’t quite calmed down, Sam hasn’t got a caveat left to offer and Dennis has pretty much lost the will to pod.

  2. S8 Ep194: THE LAST BROADCAST

    Will Warrington win at Old Trafford and finally bring the podcast to an end? There’s every chance this really could be the last-ever broadcast.

    Warrington’s brilliant performance puts them one game away from Old Trafford, so with the podcast in Oktoberfest high spirits, Sam bags himself another Simon, Dennis whistles to the tune of the referees and Rob’s plant-based buffet on an atoll leads to him questioning why Leon Hayes is only 19...

  4. S8 Ep192: MORROCAN TEA PARTY

    With Wire looking destined to finish third, the podcast questions is their final league fixture a game Tou-lose? Dennis is well and truly pissed after a 12-hour vineyard bike ride, Sam’s goes in search of leadership and Rob senses he's on the verge of being divorced by his fourth wife. Plus…

    more
  5. S8 Ep191: DUNGEON ALBANIAN GARDENERS

    Three wins in nine days, although, more importantly, has Sam Sankey bought his villa in France? The podcast returns in a positive mood — but will it be tarnished by talk of ADHD, sex workers, Rolf Harris and a tackle-gagging enlargement? Plus, we head to Edinburgh for the Fringe, in search of a...

  6. S8 Ep190: SOMETHING STICKS

    Yes, following two 40-plus wins against two shit teams, the podcast returns. So, has Dennis turned into Dustin Hoffman? Why does Rob have a blistered ball sack? And can Sam backwash his septic tank? Strap in for 90 minutes of utter bollocks as the podders conclude that yet another season will…

    more
  7. S8 Ep189: GEORGE'S SHAKESPEAREAN PLAY

    Warrington click for 51 minutes, but Sam’s statistics confirm what many feared: that’s it for the season.

  8. S8 Ep188: "YOU KNOW" (x25)

    Following, you know, the loss to Wigan, the podcast, you know, thinks it knows all the answers.

  10. S8 Ep186: MOMENTS

  21. S8 Ep175: COME DINE WITH ME
