Long before there was Big Punch Studios there was simply Big Punch, a daft comic made by three dafter kids in primary school. Now, years later, Jon, Titch and Rayman gather to discuss life, the universe and a misspent youth, all with the benefit of hindsight and good beer.
After a brief yet painful hiatus, Jon and Rayman are back for a jam-packed apology of an episode, where the laughter and rambling is as rich and genuine as ever. Topics for today's discussion include: a Lord of the Rings Marathon; describing the plot of Lost in detail; the perils of home ownership; behind the scenes at the Royal Mint; the application of fire and gold; homemade Loot Crates; and the ongoing adventures of Crime Hound.
Jon and Rayman return to waffle about some truly randomised topics, from Marvel's Infinity War, to The Room, to Spotify discoveries, to more obscure aspects of biological science, it's just another day at Big Punch Towers.
Jon and Rayman return to nature (yes, we're back in the garden) to talk ancient board games, Welsh getaways and evolution. Plus, proving that Jon's higher education was ultimately wasted, marvel as he fails to remember the name of the family of animals that duck-billed platypuses belong to. Monotremes! That's it!
Jon and Rayman are back in the great outdoors for the epic conclusion to the Garden Trilogy. SPOILERS: it's by no means epic. And, if we're being brutally honest, this entire podcast is devolving into a pre-quiz ego boost. In this episode: Evolutionary science! The scientific benefits of cooking! Amazon's bizarre delivery practices! And drones! So many drones.
It's so hot today that writing pithy, informative blurbs may be beyond us. Needless to say, Jon and Rayman sat down to talk about some stuff prior to a pub quiz. Jon bought a new jacket. Rayman bought a Star Wars model. Capitalism is wonderful.
Hope on the train to bug town as Jon and Rayman spend more time than anyone (ever, in the history of the planet) discussing locust nervous systems, dissertations, the Gillingham FC Hall of Fame and the early days of YouTube.
Jon and Rayman are back for another action-packed episode of Big Punch Classic, and they've brought their significant others along for the ride! Join Lucy and Liz as they assess the questionable life choices that brought them to this point.
Summer is almost, kinda, maybe upon us, and so Jon and Rayman take to the garden for an outdoors-y, back-to-nature review of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (somewhere amid the rambling).
Has Big Punch Classic devolved into a film review podcast? Is this actually an improvement? Did we ever have a format to begin with? Join Jon and Rayman as they delve deep into their recent movie-going experience, with commentary on Beauty and the Beast and (of all things) Krrish 3, the greatest Bollywood superhero movie you've never seen!
Your KRISPY hosts are back for another KREME episode of audio sugar DONUTS. Sit back VALUE and enjoy an in-depth EXCELLENT VALUE review of the new Power Rangers TRY OUR NEW ZORDON ZING-BERRY CRUSH FRITTER movie, after this word from our sponsors. KRISPY KREME.
on and Rayman are men. Adult men. And what do men do? They drink whisky while recording podcasts and talking about football. Yes, actual football - with the cheering and kicking and everything. Oh, and the Loch Ness monster. And the Cheltenham Races. Because adults.
Following possibly the worst pub quiz they've ever attending, Jon and Rayman sit down for possibly the worst ever review of the Lego Batman Movie. Also! Listen in awe to Jon's stunning reading of his unused lines from a Lego Batman Movie promotional tie-in game feat. Batman impressions.
More action than you can shake a stick at! Join Rayman and Jon as they embark on a flight of conversational fancy, touching upon cakes, diets, circles within circles, professionalism and the odd bit of science.
Alive with the joys of a new year and new possibilities, Rayman and Jon sit down to discuss the horrible realities of becoming broken old men. From back pain to crying in cinemas, it's a smorgasbord of content bordering on actual reviews of La La Land and the new Power Rangers trailer. Pull up a comfy chair, grab your orthopaedic cushion, and let's get decidedly middle-aged.
Jon and Rayman are joined by a special guest, the elusive Rich Holton (ostensibly the third host of this show), for a festive session of year-end ramblings. The mind is willing but the flesh is oh so weak as we wallow in a funk of too-much-turkey and pop culture deaths. Goodbye 2016. We'll see you in the new year.
Continuing their recent trend of excellent decisions, Jon and Rayman embark on some daytime drinking following a productive morning of Xmas shopping and the like. Join them for a (surprisingly coherent) discussion of all manner of things, including Hamilton, food, more food, weird little horror games, Fantastic Beasts and Dr Strange.
Big Punch Classic returns after a month of conventions and other podcast-interrupting life events. The world has changed in our absence. But what will our intrepid heroes discuss to make things right again? The US Election? The slumping economy? No, let's share old drinking stories because everything is awful and we all need some escapism. Cheers!
Chris and Jon return to the recording studios (and the booze) to discuss one hell of a wedding party (featuring three truly exceptional best men).
Things fly off the chain as Rayman and Jon take the discussion to the garden, drinking tea/coffee in favour of alcohol! Good gracious, what next!? In this world gone mad all reason is abandoned. Up is yesterday. Red is an emotion. Chaos reigns. Lovely weather though.
attling technical difficulties and their own crippling existential doubt, Rayman and Jon sit down to discuss life, love and Kickstarters (recording just in advance of the launch of the Afterlife Inc. Volume 4 Kickstarter!) Also! Sudden, surprising takeaway orders, courtesy of Lucy.
Rayman and Jon sit down to discuss Anneka Rice, the noble art of best man-ing, festivals, injuries, beer and surgery. Jon flashes his appendectomy scars - a gesture, which, in a purely audio-based medium, is rendered utterly pointless!
Join Jon and Rayman as they come dangerously close to a regular format. This week's topic? Collectables. Also, the rules of Pokemon Go - explained in laborious detail.
In the first of a crossover with Morning Coffee detailing Jon's secret origins (yes, he's really that egotistical) Jon and Rayman sit down to talk about the comic they made back in primary school, the seminal 'Big Punch'. Which was in no way a shameless rip-off of Sonic the Comic. Honest. Warning: may contain porcupines.
Long before there was Big Punch Studios there was simply Big Punch, a daft comic made by three dafter kids in primary school. Years later, Jon, Rayman and Titch gather to discuss life, the universe and a misspent youth. However, in this, the most random first episode ever, Rayman and Jon sit down to provide an unnecessary commentary track for Return of the Jedi (1983). Future episodes will be nothing like this, we swear!
