Paul's Pity Party

Ep. 173

Hello fine folk of The Cider Shed.


Join Keri and Matthew this week as they scrimp and save at the Cost of Living Fete, go undercover with Meat Squad and get a fair bang for their buck at Celia Sparrow's first foray on the festival circuit.


Among the cheap cuts were:


  • Shattered Myths : He don't need another hero (glass).
  • Every Day is like Sundae : Fallon is getting creamed off with The Archers.
  • Vet's a Family Affair : Mum is no longer the word at Lovell James.


Produced by Matthew Weir
