Ep 72 Signals are like strides 08/26/2022

Ep 72 Signals are like strides Signals are like strides, when you don't have a good one, you're basically fucked! Sadly we have had plenty of experience with the latter but this episode brings us problems in the way of the former. I can't apologise enough. I have no idea what happened but I will try and work something out to make sure it doesn't happen again. You mostly just miss my desperate plea for wanker of the week stories because I haven't been organised enough and so I'd like to start afresh. Please resend if I haven't used yours and please send in any new ones. Other than that it's just my wanker of the week. Sadly while Ben listened to give his opinion on the signal issues, the bit where I'm saying how smoking the tik tok farrier is had perfect audio. Not awkward at all!! /episode/index/show/buckoffbanter/id/24168570
