Hello there dearest potential Patron avid listener and potential gravity denier, Great to be back in the garage Dojo with a fully fit Wrigglesworth again. However as you'll hear it looks like we might need to start pre-booking own own facilities as the sport of power-lifting is REALLY taking off here in the Peak District as a whole new generation of athletes start gearing themselves up for the Pontefract 2048 Olympiad. Of course there's some 'Shitroen' news and Granny Bean makes a suprise appearance in the outdoor queueing area as me a Tom are in a holding pattern with nothing but a packet of crab sticks. If none of that makes sense, just wait til your hear the podcast!

Hey there dearest Patron and listener. First lift back with Tom in over a month as he got covid quite a few weeks back poor fella and it's knocked him for six somewhat. The he got a chest infection post 'the whole shebang' making this our first actual lift back together face to face for quite some weeks. It was a delightful bright morning up at Hacksaw Ridge as we scaled Tom's 1 in 1 ski-jump of a garden. We did a bit of lifting, but mainly caught up on important recent events. None more so than the profound experience that is - getting a new washing machine. Enjoy the podcast friends Big Love Rob XXX www.thecomedyvillage.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Hey there Dearest Patron and listener. This Episode was recorded Live at The Buxton Festival 2024 On July 21st. It's the first time me and Tom had attempted some sort of live version of the podcast. It was a huge amount of fun and as all of it was 'untried' we ended up getting through about 10% of what we'd planned as the wheels inevitably and comically fell off. The was a "visual element" to a portion of it, so I've edited round those bit and where needed added a small amount of "Audio description". I think it's definitely the beginning of something.

Hey there Dearest Listener and potential Patron. First of all, my profoundest apologies for the recent break in output and sporadic podcast episodes. In hindsight, I really should have addressed it personally with you all, but I didn't and feel bad about that. I'm so sorry and hope you know I'd never take your support for granted. We've had a full 'back to school related' bugs that have clobbered us (Me and Tom in succession) and I'm sure you've had your fair share too as the kids go back to school - (The petri dish of germs) and our immune systems are put through another 'Joe Wicks esque' boot camp. So this ep was actually recorded in the summer, it may contain the odd reference to the Euros which obv has happened - no spoilers though in case anyone wants to watch the whole thing on catch-up - but it's full of the usual nonsense for which you come here for your recommended weekly (diahrrea permitting) portion of. Come see Rob live at one of his clubs www.thecomedyvillage.com Huge shout out to Listeners Paul and Sara, who get a mention in this episode and thanks so much for your generous gifts! We love them!

We had a load of fun recording this with our special guest Marcus Brigstocke.

I've wanted to go since I can't remember way back when and I've found it hard to truly articulate how brilliant an experience it was to visit, like London the sheer depth of humanity and life on display blew my little country mouse socks off!

Hello there Dearest Listeners and extra supportive Patrons. Can't tell you how much I appreciate your support on here, it is of immense meaning to me and I think of you guys every time I'm editing and mixing and this podcast. After a short break Me and Tom got back under the bar, for a grunt and a good waffle. Helen joins us in the locker room hot from the charity shops and announces her plans to improve the world of art as we know and understand it. A huge claim. Tom has some devastating news about his new bread bin, which has really taken his knees out, so adopt a brace position for that. Listener Paul Martin gets in touch with a truly chilling letter regarding 'AI' or ‘Artificial Intelligence’ as the experts call it and it appears our every move is being listened to from deep cyberspace!

Hey there Dearest Listener and Potential Patron We hope this finds you well. Apologies for the delay in posting this next episode - the old 'Diarrhoea permitting' clause may have been maxed out with this one as mine and Tom's respective local education authorities placed their half terms in successive weeks.

We discuss the merits of "go top school in your pyjamas" days and there's a superb Pant Cage UK Update from Runcorn + loads more.  If you enjoy the podcast please give us a 5 star review, rate, like and share the podcast and help us wade through the algorithms!

Hello there dearest listener and potential Patron, It's time for the podcast that isn't about weightlifting! This week Tom scares the bejesus out of Rob and all the parents at his school gates by waxing lyrical about the seminal 80's film 'Threads' and brings round a deeply terrifying cheese that really leaves it's mark on the dojo. There's deep discussion about the "gladiators Reboot" too. Recorded in Mid-Jan, this fortunately timeless episode is slightly back-released due to administrative error! Enjoy the podcast!

Hello there Dearest Patrons and Listeners. It’s the first outdoor lift of the 2024 Season. Tom blows the lid off another huge baby milk story and explains how Rymans the stationers are bizarrely an official retailer for soda-stream!

Hey there Dearest Listeners and potential Patrons.  Of course 50 is just a number, something I'm continuing to tell myself as I hurtle rapidly towards it, so as you'd imagine in the podcast that isn't really about weightlifting, we don't really dwell on the number and just get stuck into the waffle! On the menu are: A large shield bug that's made it's way into the locker room, Replacing new years resolutions with just being good enough, the majesty and drama of the darts and silent retreats. We also receive a stinging broadside form Darhood Eriquat regarding or Youtube output!

Hey there Dearest Listeners and potential Patrons, Seasons greetings to you and good will to all humans! Baa-Humbug, mince pies and reindeers to one and all and little Donkeys all round with their massive loads all round.  Here's a bumper Christmas Edition of 'the podcast that really isn't about weightlifting'. It's my first one back since having hoof No.2 operated on, which seems to be healing well (I'm now able to hobble about in my special sandal and should be back to stand up as planned in January!)  Tom reveals his sensational hair after a second round of lowlights, our weightlifting appears to have had a significant positive effect on a certain aspect of my recovery, Tom forgets his ID for a gig on a military base and by thunder we have a sensational Pant Cage Poem from listener Paul Martin which really sets the Seasonal tone with a sense of wonder and joy! Tom has an ingenious solution to reduce waste at Christmas, we attempt to stick it to the man and of course, it wouldn't be Christmas without a tale of me having to unblock my mother-in law's drains. Not her fault at all, the blame can squarely and 100% be placed at my own, clown shod shoes. Thanks for all your support over the year and here's to 2024 to all of you and we'll see you on the other side very very soon If you'd like to support the podcast you can do so by joining patreon here, or if you can't afford that please keep listening for free and spread the word about the pod.

Hello there Dearest Listeners and Patrons, Firstly, profound apologies for the lack of pod the last couple of weeks, but between us we've all variously been injured or ill or had sick kids and or partners, and in Tom's case a little bit of both. However like all things, they have passed and it was great to get back under the bar with the Sheffield maestro. Huge thanks goes to regular listener and pant cage UK contributor Steve Swindon in the ep and a VERY SPECIAL GUEST he recorded a pant cage report with. I don't want to pop it in the blurb here as it's just too wonderful and want you to experience it for yourselves in your own moment. Suffice it to say, this is the greatest pant cage review I've ever had the pleasure of being involved with, it's both delightfully funny and moving!
