• Episode 11 - Larger and Coke Shandy?
    Sep 7 2025

    Happy Monday, Ducks!

    Here we are again with our FREE Monday episode for you as we set you up for another week!

    The conversation continues about strange drink combinations after Jo saw someone in Coronation Street having a Red Wine and Coke. Some odd suggestions coming in from around the East Midlands!

    Charles makes sure the podcast can't move on from a certain conversation topic thats been "lingering around" for the last few weeks, and of course, we'll do a game of Guess the year and Kids Tell Fibs.

    Thanks to our sponsor for this week, The Magic Garden, quite simply one of the best places to drink in Nottingham. Check them out yourself here: https://themagicgardennotts.com/

    Ey up Ducks.

    Welcome back for episode 4. Have you ever broken something that's pretty much irreplaceable? Sparky's got a story that will make you cringe, Jo is calling for the re-release of a song that probably most people listening to this have never heard of, and we get an update from young Harvey with some crucial info about London, I'm sure you'll be astounded to find out.

    Remember, (if you're listening on Monday) it's your last chance to enter our Gloworm competition. A weekend VIP pass plus camping is up for grabs. All made available by our sponsors Gloworm Festival at Thoresby Park, 8-10th August.
