Episode 92 - Brian Blessed's Battery Beret. Twitch of Fun is back and there are no children spoiling (improving) it.

It's a crucial frame in the contest, with one player in extraordinarily poor recent form. Can they turn it around?

And despite the huge number of football fixture, …

Chapter 153: Frifky Bufineff. It's 5.24pm on 7th November 2023 and it's DARK. Too dark to see a stone, especially if your torch runs out of power. Richard is feeling frisky, but luckily there are no FF on the Stocean to help relieve him of this sexual tension. There's singing, there's fexineff and there are very few stones cleared.More episodes:htt…

Ep 91- Man-nequin. Twitch of Fun is back and there's a double pitch invasion this time, but soon Rich restores order to discuss a year of Richie Sunaq, if you can fire Richard Madeley for doing his job, the moon on holiday, how not to say you're sorry and a beautiful rendition of most of the film Encanto.More episodes:https://www.comedy.co.uk/podca…

Chapter 152 - Get Back In Your Rembrandt Painting. It's around 9.30am on 25th October 2023 and the daily stone clears continue.

Plus a look at the strangely altered …

Episode 90 - Cat in the Wardrobe. This doesn't happen on Channel 5 (I expect, don't watch it) but the first 10 mins of the show was not broadcast - but it's here for you now. And the show is then interrupted later for a family emergency. But for a brief few minutes everything worked, with chat about robotic hands, the king's love of kids' pants, th…

Chapter 151 - Welly Boot Jeopardy. It's before 5pm on the 12th October 2023 and Rich is hoping Duckett's Passage is open for business cos he has some stones to clear.

Chapter 150 - Fticks and Ftones. It's 4.22pm on 5th October 2023 and there's very bad news for the believers in the Alpha and Omega God or those that think the Stocean can only be accessed by a portal and for those who want to hear a man talking about stones, not about walking along a street. Eventually there is some stone clearing, but it's not ve…

Chapter 149: The Alfred Jewel. It's 8.22am on 29th September 2023 and the daily stone clearing podcasts continue.

Richard still manages to clear a Hermione handful …

Episode 89 - Just The Two of Us - It's back. Staggering it's way back into existence with a host who doesn't even remember that Henry the Hippo existed.

Mainly by everyone following th…

The Birdy Song - In a crucial frame Me 1 takes on his opponent Me2 to see who is best at snooker. By the end of the frame we should know who is best for now.
