    Jun 11 2026

    Theo and Rob reunite in their new regular (UK) evening slot to discuss events both recent and more historic - like the time Theo slept through an entire day at university.

    Jun 5 2026

    Theo and Rob get unexpectedly fixated on the jawless fish who swam in the seas of the prehistoric world, prompted by Theo's mention of his recent trip to Devon. There's also some chat regarding the red arrows, Paul Simon's recent gig at the Royal Albert Hall, and the etymology of knapsacks.
