  • We've Got 99 Problems But Making A Podcast Clearly Isn't One - Episode 100 Special
    May 5 2025

    We've done it. 100 episodes of us talking mostly nonsense with poorly written and researched scripts. This week the three of us go through the history of our show, reminiscing and updating any new information that has come through. Take a stroll down memory lane together with us.

    Thank you from the bottom of our heart for all the support. We love making this podcast and hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoy making it.
