Elis' New Car, Shark and Horse, A Trip to Dubai and Your Quarter Life Crises
Show broadcast on 27 September 2014
This week Elis shows off both his new car and the incredible names of his friends, whilst John shows off a new purchase he's blamed on his quarter-life crisis. There's more crisis decisions from you, Elis performs some live PE, John renames a guitar legend, and there's the usual Textual Healing, Sacred Cow, Winner Plays On and a particularly saucy extract from Tony Blackburn's autobiography.
John's introduction of Elis
"To my left is the loudest voice in the rallying cry for South Walian devolution. "
Conversations and riffs
Elis bought a new (second-hand) car this week possibly above his budget, and his negotiating skills leave a lot to be desired. John bought a bass guitar that he can't play. It's great having a more successful partner, isn't it?
