Ragbag Presents

The Glass Roast

Season 1, Ep. 41
•

In spite of various listener complaints, Frank remains convinced that repeatedly insulting an inanimate object is a work of genius. This time he's unleashing his fury on a small drinking glass.


Special shout out to Porridge Radio, whose new album Every Bad is out very soon.


Ragbag Recommends brand new podcast, Run With Me On This, with Stacey Frost from Rough Giraffe & Brit Pod Scene!
