  • Intelligent dialogue

    New listener from North Carolina. Very interesting dialogue on the whole ‘lemur’ subject. Not only discussing the problems but giving real, concrete solutions. Well done guys! Lots to unpack there. Cheers

  • I should have listened to my husband (for once!)

    I resisted for weeks after enduring my husband talking about it ad nauseam! I eventually plunged in when trapped in a car with him for hours. And can now be found catching up whilst making wild garlic - home butchered wild Dartmoor venison burgers amongst other such homely country pursuits!

    I wish I had ‘t held out for so long. Keep it up! Its now my weekly treat!

  • A proper podcast.

    Funny, entertaining and informative.

    The antidote to the virtue signalling, lecture-style crud pumped out by the fluffy brigade.

    Keep it up chaps👍🏻
