Brilliant hearing about the real life stuff. Highlights were "I was 28 years old and vandalising playground equipment" I had the subtitles on for some reason but that made me laugh too, as when you said, "go to Richard Herring dot com, the subtitles said, "Richardcherry. Com" and when you said, "ventriloquism", it read," liquid eventuality". Classic.

I went to richcherry.com as instructed by the captions to buy tickets but no such site exists

It's sad when even my own substack page doesn't know who I am.

Ally! I hope Twitch of Fun comes back soon. I bet the Puppets are busy writing an epic 100th episode...

I think if you pitch ‘Shit At A Wall’ as a new TV series for Channel 5, they’d probably go for it.

Monopoly - ummm might need to recommend you some alternative games 😁 If I could i only recommend one I would say CoraQuest , excellent adventure game made by a kid, her dad, an artist and a bunch of art / idea submissions from other kids.

This was a lovely post to leave your kids and for us to hear and enjoy - so sweet and lovely

They love it. As long as they don't lose. We have loads of better games. Will check that one out

Well hopefully CoraQuest will be a nice change as it's co-operative so there aren't any losers ☺️

Great to hear Terry, thought he'd have had an upgrade by now though with the improvements in AI...

Loving eventual liquidism, a dying art form! Keep up the excellent work

I'm a completist but I worry that others may be baffled by the Terry, robot voice and Ally call-backs without explanation.

They will learn.... I did do a brief podcast of Warming Up but was on soundcloud so has disappeared and even I can't really remember what happened with Robot Voice (I think he went mad and tried to take over the world), and that was before the snooker I think. Terry also started in those podcasts (so I could push on when I made inevitable mistakes as if they would be edited out) So we will see where the characters take us this time. And I have no problem with bafflement. To explain everything would take 35 years.
