    Welcome to Part 2 of the ninth Best Of The Socially Distant Sports Bar.This episode features more of our favourite moments from the regular podcast over the last two years.As we've mentioned before, we don't really do seasons. We don't disappear for a couple of weeks and leave the feed empty while everyone wonders whether we're coming back.We like putting something out every week.So whilst we're taking a short break from the usual routine, we've been digging through the archives and pulling together some of the clips, stories, conversations and moments that have made us laugh most over the last couple of years.Some of these became listener favourites. Some became running jokes. Some have taken on an almost mythical status in Distant Pod history. And some simply made the three of us laugh far more than they probably should have.If you've listened to every episode, hopefully there are a few forgotten classics in here.If you're newer to the podcast, think of this as another guided tour through some of the moments that have helped shape the show.And if you're thinking, "Hang on, isn't this just a Best Of?" then yes. But unlike some podcasts, we haven't vanished for two weeks and left you with nothing at all.Part 3 is available now for subscribers via Distant Pod Bonus Club on Apple Podcasts.Thanks for listening, and we'll be back with more brand-new nonsense very soon.
