Episode 13
Easy-Going Elis, Invented Recipes, Producer Dave back from Amsterdam and Hungarian Throat Singing
Show broadcast on 11 May 2014
Welcome back, welcome back. This week's podcast is high stakes, as Elis and John battle it out in Winner Plays On with Elis attempting to stop John's fifth win in a row - find out if he gets to keep the trophy! And find out if pint-sized Icelandic bohemian Bjork makes it into the paddock or the abattoir in Sacred Cow. Plus the boys find out about your bizarre invented food combinations (and get an angry reaction to a peanut butter and jalapeno sandwich). There's talk of all-nighters, Elis' laissez-faire attitude, and Producer Dave has returned, which is very exciting news.
