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 comi…

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 …

Hello there Dearest listener and potential Patron? Episode 60 contains a potential murder mystery/ enormous jump to the wrong conclusion, only you can decide as Tom thinks he may have witnessed a heinous crime at the tip while dropping off a destroyed sofa that also he realised in hindsight might have been a ticking time-bomb. Tom also regails Rob …

Hello there Dearest Patron and Listener. The title of course is a window into an element of the content in this episode, although I'm delighted to inform you that for once, it doesn't refer to my (Rob's) stomach. Tom describes in hilarious detail his own recent emergency. We also discuss Tom's recent high rolling celebrity activity at his local Tob…

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. Obviously the title gives away the fact …

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 di…

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! Having just watched touching the void again, I'm rather freaked out by the sheer number of climbers frozen into the i…

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…

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 …

A welcome away lift for Rob this week at Platypus heights. It was a crisp & bright autumn/winter's day, perhaps a fitting tribute to one of Tom's chickens which had expired the day before. Tom had been to see Ben Folds Five at a theatre in York and was blown away by the sheer lack of lavatories. The weightlifting platform is sporting a new pigeon d…

This week there’s a huge Row in the locker room regarding Helen placing Rob on a tea-making ban, Tom gets dragged into the legal wrangling and only further confuses things. All this before Tom takes off his hat to reveal his LOWLIGHTS! we’ve got 2 superb submissions to Pant cage UK from listeners Steve Burley and Alan Lunt and there’s a hint that t…

Hello there dearest listener and potential patron. This week Tom reveals a deep, deep love of the power ballad, as he prepares himself to have his 'low-lights' done. I can confirm by the time you hear this, they have been done, so stick around to the end of the pod to here Tom's despatch from the hairdressers. We've also got a superb "Pant Cage UK"…

Hello there Dearest Patron and Listener. Another bumper ep. Superb locker room chat with Helen regarding Tom's impeding lowlights with Soibhan and we've got sponsorship deals falling out of our arses this week! (We have no sponsors) Rob (I) describe the most rock and roll I've ever seen and also connected to that, I recently witnessed the least roc…

Hey there Dearest Listeners and potential Patron This week, I’m suspicious that Tom appears to have got himself into some for of regular hairdressing contract which of course, has terrifying echoes of the 'unwritten Hoover repair 'contracts he has become embroiled in, in recent months. Robot Hoovers also hit the headlines in this episode, with emot…

Hello there dearest listener and potential Patron This week we’re proudly (not) sponsored by Plumbers Mate. More importantly it’s Tom’s first lift back since his back went twang. Poor Rob had a torrid time by the side of the road on snake pass with a wholly avoidable bowel incident. Tom gets lost en route to a show and soothes Rob’s bruised psyche …

Hello Dearest Listener and potential PATRON?! It's our 40th! We've made it, it's a big number, it's a big party... but sadly Tom's put his back out inbetween podcast recordings, so there's even less lifting in this podcast than usual. HOWEVER We sat down, round the microphones like a real podcast and it all tumbled out. In this episode we BLOW THE …
