Rum Doings Episode 254

In our 254rd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, now Cliff Richard is definitely not a paedophile, is it safe to start posting him our children again? Nick's in somewhere called "The United States Of America", which is apparently some sort of second attempt at England. He's there to speak at his cult. A cult that believes this is episode 255 when it's 254. We talk about John's getting fired from the Cat Magazine, we ponder Putin, and then get into the terrible people of Bubbling Life.

In our 253rd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, given Europe's carbon dioxide shortage, should we start burning more fossil fuels? We begin by trying to discuss Love Island, which neither of something has seen, and then Labour Live, which neither of us attended (along with everyone else in the world). Nick went to Menorca, John didn't, and we discuss the ongoing popularity of text adventures. (Link!) We attempt to mess with your AI, upset metal fans, and then John reads everyone a racist bedtime

Every now and then we like to break up the flow, and include a good episode. This is one of those. We begin with discussions of HRH Prince Charles' need for a cream tea, move on to Trump vs N Korea, and then Nick advocates holocausts, both nuclear and Nazi. John tells a story of Bodmin Jail's incredibly balanced perspective on paranormal phenomena, we have a message from our sponsor, and we dive into our podcast subscriptions.

In our 251rd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, the royal wedding. Despite this, Nick talks about the royal wedding at length, which is why he's now in prison forever. More importantly, to celebrate our landmark two hundred and fifty-first episode, we're in the same room! There's much blather about weddings in general, then this naturally moves on to Buffy The Vampire Slayer, new kitchens, and embarrassed foxes. We discover the secret of immortality: kill millions of people, talk holidays, and

In our 250nd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, now the illegal rave scene is having a renaissance, is it also time to welcome back the Marathon bar? We talk about a real life cream tea for children charity! And read some poetry. And Nick defends giving poor children bread and water and beating them with poles or something.

Rum Doings Episode 249

2018/04/03

A transatlantic episode, recorded about a week and a half ago, with John in San Francisco and Nick in the exotic climes of London. What do we talk about? Who knows! It was a week and a half ago, 7am, and then there was jetlag. But we can guarantee it was all jolly good.

In our 248rd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, with the death of Ken Dodd, is there any hope for family friendly light entertainment? That's right, we're back! After a whole week off. We discuss the delightful pick-up artist game Super Seducer, and then try to quite sensibly work out what advice actually is useful for single humans. There's front door lock chat, like everyone had been hoping for. And then we talk TV recommendations because it's been a while. Then Nick starts lamenting his failure to

Rum Doings Episode 247

2018/01/10

We discuss how John brained his son, the Producers-style cabinet reshuffle, and conspiracy theories over the demise of the NHS. We talk IVF, and the downside of eating all the embryos on toast. And then a peculiar number of recipes seem to appear.

2017/12/12

In our 246nd ever Rum Doings, our topic is, with the passing of Keith Chegwin, is light entertainment finally gone forever? We read postcards from listeners (no, really!), ponder new insults, and then tell the strange tale of Toby’s bench. Nick then attempts to explain Bitcoin. And we wonder if we need to leave our cream teas for Santa.

Rum Doings Episode 244

2017/11/03

One of our most argumentative episodes, this was recorded last week and then due to John's ineptitude, only uploaded now. So pre-Spacey, but post-Weinstein, we loudly argue about where blame lies. There's also some cruise talk, and a bit about turning 40.

Rum Doings Episode 243

2017/10/11

Obviously we discuss Theresa's splendid speech, and Weinstein's wayward penis (recorded on Monday, so before a lot more of the revelations). We ponder the deaths of major figures, and solve the urination crisis.

2017/08/18

We're back, after a million year hiatus! And we record in the same room! Forewarning: at the time we recorded (the weekend) the news was reporting that it was anti-Nazis that had driven into the crowds. Obviously that wasn't the case. We talk Nazis, Trump, sciatica and child-rearing. We get interrupted, we deeply investigate the gravy boat, and we explain why we won't be rid of Theresa May. And loads more!

Your eyes do not deceive you. Nick has finally decided to lower himself to the level of talking to the little people once more. We return! Talk this week is of IVF and politics, and that's pretty much it. But it's good. Oh boy is it good.

Rum Doings Episode 238

2017/04/20

Perhaps rather obviously we discuss the forthcoming surprise General Election, and the abundance of delightful choice we have in casting our vote. But of course we also talk Bill O'Reilly, Anglican churches, and Judith's forthcoming miserable holiday. And the joys of going through IVF.

2017/03/31

After establishing just how wrong Nick is, we consider how sincere is Theresa May, and then move on to John's Amazing List Of Brilliant Ideas. In the middle of a fascinating discussion about magazines, we are invaded by a two year old. Somehow we then get on to vicars in assemblies, and then Nick gets a bit confused about what metaphors.

Oooh, lovely, it's a proper old-fashioned Rum Doings episode, with topics jumping back and forth all over the house. We cover two year past deaths of radio presenters no one's heard of, childhood fear, quantum entanglement and confused bishops.
