It's time for another episode of the weightlifting podcast that really does only contain trace elements of weightlifting at the best of times. Plenty to discuss this week as we recorded this hot off the back of my (Rob's) 50th Birthday trip to New York that Helen so kindly took me on. I've wanted to go since I can't remember way back when and I've found it hard to truly articulate how brilliant an experience it was to visit, like London the sheer depth of humanity and life on display blew my little country mouse socks off! Anyway, as you'll hear I barely mention it to Tom in the podcast! Enjoy! get in touch with the podcast at theunlikelyweightlifters@gmail.comwww.thecomedyvillage.com

  • 52. Episode 53. "The Return of Dahood Eriquat"

    01:06:00
    Hey there Dearest Listener and Potential PatronWe hope this finds you well. Apologies for the delay in posting this next episode - the old 'Diarrhoea permitting' clause may have been maxed out with this one as mine and Tom's respective local education authorities placed their half terms in successive weeks. Obviously the title gives away the fact we've had more correspondence from Dahood. We discuss the merits of "go top school in your pyjamas" days and there's a superb Pant Cage UK Update from Runcorn + loads more. If you enjoy the podcast please give us a 5 star review, rate, like and share the podcast and help us wade through the algorithms!If you'd like to support us, you can by joining Rob's patreon page.
