    Dec 19 2025

    In our now traditional "what did Maureen and Claire predict for this year?" episode, we go though what our two great prophets said was going to happen in 2025, some 12 months ago. You will be surprised how well they did. Have a listen (or re-listen) to Episode #63 if you want to hear their predictions in full. Then, gather round the wireless in front of the fire and have a listen. We're on in between The King's Speech and something or other from Ant and Dec. Happy Christmas one and all!
