The Old Fools Podcast @oldfoolspod.bsky.social · Apr 8

We're celebrating a few weeks break from recording The Old Fools with a special compilation of some of our favourite moments from season 2.

It's available for download right now.

And Steve has already realised there's at least one bit left out that should have been included.

A truly superb piece of work including the best ever delivery of a line by @gmcgiv.bsky.social and that is a HIGH BAR.

Netflix adds 'binge-worthy' sitcom 'almost as dark and sharp as Peep Show'

The Channel 4 sitcom, which first aired in 2017, has just landed on Netflix and is said to be 'almost as pin-sharp and cheerfully dark as Peep Show'

You idiots. We’ve got a house full of builders, well five of them, today and now I have to face them and offer them tea and biscuits and not start laughing about builders’ treats. I already feel emasculated enough without having to stifle giggles.
