The year 2025 will forever be remembered as the year of Elis and John. It will be remembered for John's wins and losses, for Elis's car antics. It will be remembered for Tim Key's John snub, for Elis cementing the Cymru Connection into the Welsh psyche. It will be remembered for James Acaster's searing takedowns, for Dave's alarm disaster, and for the four words: 'it was oil again'. As Elis and John set sail into the new year, it's time to look back at the wake of good content they've left behind. Expect paint in car footwells, a surprise appearance from Lou and a chaotic Made Up Game for the ages. Please continue to send in your fantastic correspondence to elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk, or WhatsApp the show on 07974 293 022.

473 episodes in and there is still room to excavate the vast intricacies that make up the Pompeii dig of John Robins' mind. Grab your JCB because there's a dump truck's worth to uncover off the back of the latest adventures from the Sad Van. And it all boils down to one thing, as the hotels John's willing to stay in simply say so much about the man.A generic hotel brand is the vessel through which we can get to know him.Does John actually like the things that he likes? Is he a star player who performs badly if he's pampered? Is it all about fantasy, reality, expectation and fulfillment? Is he a “lunatic” for positing made up things that could go wrong for more money? Does John want character in his life? Is shampoo being separated from shower gel too much of a luxury?And to answer all these questions we need the assistance of James Acaster, one of the More Money Than Sense Boys.Plus there's romantic tests and more evisceration of Dave's Parachutes vinyl.

THIS EPISODES WERE RECORDED 10 YEARS AGO, PLEASE FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSESIn this fifth watch of Sex and the City 2, Tim and Guy welcome back friend of the podcast James Acaster as a coping mechanism. The episode that follows a gruelling fifth watch of the film covers an exciting new name for small vibrators, Carrie's precarious standing as a fashion icon, a role play of just how the movie got over the line in the first place and an exciting new theory on just exactly where our favourite extra is off to. Spirits are neither high nor low, the movie is undeniably too long and you can't see it, but the boys have fear in their eyes.Support the boys on their modern-day adventures at twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast.
