We join our heroes during a telling off session, because someone is being a naughty boy. Has John eaten too much chocolate on the way in and he's about to experience the mother of all choco crashes? Has Elis insisted that we scrap the proposed running order to talk instead about every conceivable permutation of the Nations League? Or could Producer Dave be the one in the firing line…?After the air has been cleared, it's pumped full of excitement. Elis receives quite possibly the greatest bit of post to leave Postman Dave's sack since its creation, and John relishes the prospect of ball-by-ball cricket commentary.There's muscle chat, zoo chat, and a tiny bit of (sorry) worlde chat.You too can get involved with the Elis and John ‘No One Else is Doing This' podcast.

Huge news in Elis and John towers today, for Producer Dave bumped into the man, the myth, the Solero supper himself, Mr Tim Davie. Could he use this opportunity to pitch a brand new true crime podcast about dupes from Stockport who get sold fake shoes?

Today on the show Colin, Producer Dave, and Outdoor Industry Insider Eoin Comerford have some innovative suggestions for the outdoor industry.Innovation in the outdoors is a misunderstood word. It's often only applied to the performance of the apparel, gear, and footwear that the industry produces. And while there will surely be advances that will improve the stuff we make the opportunity for the industry to innovate lies more within our approach to making and marketing that stuff.On this episode we take a look at what can be learned from (gasp!) fast fashion as well as the opportunities that lie within experiential marketing. We of course wrap things up with The Parting Shot by lobbing a rock at the latest news to come out of Authentic Brands.Check out hundreds of wildly cool products by visiting and shopping at Garage Grown Gear!Thanks for listening!

Love is in the air and it's really setting Producer Dave's pulse racing. And not just because he's madly in love himself. Rather it's because Elis and John are leaning into topical content in a natural fashion without prompting. Something to get any commercial radio producer excitable.For yes, it's Valentine's Day. Romance is making the studio a thick humid erotic soup. Elis will send Isy a text saying “well done”. And John's Love Heart that says “new love” on it has broken in half; a sign that pagans would have interpreted as coming crop failure.But John is in love. In love with a new beau... the Top Shows Podcast Chart. He's also had the greatest match with a woman of all time… his mortgage broker. In less romantic affairs we ask “could you wake a baby for £25,000?” and there's a clash of two ingredients that were just made for each other: Mad Dads and sat navs.Contact us right now you sexy lovers on elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk and 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp if you're more of a direct message sort of person.

You would think Elis and Producer Dave would be offering praise to the mood gods, for Johnny JR is in a good one, having interviewed his favourite musician of all time for a project he cannot comment on. May - check. Oldham - check. McCombes - check (but didn't engage). Yet the fly in the ointment: with such big energy, John's sackings flow forth like a wave.Equally such vim it also means there's the vigour to go in two footed on shoes. Who could expect that?Elsewhere, we're on other fertile ground covering topics such as tying your shoe laces. It's all good stuff crowned off with a proper meat and drink Mad Dad.Got stuff to put forward to the CEO and his employees?

Mark Irgang is the Opening General Manager of the Marriott New York JFK and has known Glenn for some time. He's also the newly elexted President of SKAL USA. Yet, somehow he still wants to have drinks and swap industry war stories with Glenn, Craig, Producer Dave and maybe even Dr.Producer Suzanne! Plus, Glenn gets hited as the new coach of the Dallas Cowboys?!

Talk about a crazy start to the new year! First, check out the wacky name Kirby comes up with for Producer Dave's new jacket he got for Christmas. Also, one associate flawlessly recites an insane amount of people in his shoutout during The Chris Show! Finally—this might sound zany—but Bo says there's a product at the stores and clubs that can apparently "transport you to other worlds." What is he talking about? Tune in for a wild ride!

With Speakergate gone (we hope) in the blink of a manually adjustable eye it's time for John to turn to one of his other favourite pastimes: cheekiness. Trying to get plugs past Producer Dave without him noticing, by increasingly layered and convoluted means? Count that checked and duly intervened on. Campaigning for the return of erotic movies? Tick, oh he's a cheeky scamp that one. And that saucy subject is one he seems to know more about than he perhaps should.In other goings on there's a logically watertight game which causes the usual ructions from the usual parties, and despite the lack of 35 minutes on sound systems there is a brutal time consuming neg from a listener that really derails the vibe.If you'd like to trash Elis and John as well then it's elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp.

“Mmmh yeah Christmastime.” In a linear sense it's Christmas Day. In a circular sense it's some time between 13th and 25th December. Ho! Ho! Ho!What better way to celebrate the birth of Jesus than Elis and John's Christmas Cracker? Oh and we have festive fun. Elis and John write a Christmas song which is equal parts downbeat and administration heavy, whilst it's the most madderful time of the year for fathers.We've also got a very secret guest that Producer Dave reveals within the first 15 minutes and there's a festive advert to rival Jean Louis that becomes far more affecting than the initially comedic idea. Whether your listening in a linear (25/12), circular (13/12 to 13/12) or any point afterwards, Merry Christmas!If you've got anything to send to the Elis and John North Pole then send it to elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk, or 07974 293 022 via Christmastime's preferred method of modern communication (WhatsApp).

Anna Blue is President of the American Hotel & Lodging Foundation where she's a change agent of good. However, she's appraently prone to poor decision making once she realizes what she's done by joining Glenn, Craig and Producer Dave for this week's Friday Night Audit.

Huge news from Leeds, for Producer Dave has been in the vicinity of the Director General himsen. Solero perched in hand, not a drop of juice on his fingers, charming the big wigs of the media world. What an honour to be in the presence of an intoxicating whiff of his Magnum cologne.But incredibly that isn't even the biggest news of the day. For there is huge BBC Sounds news, which, if you can believe it, is even bigger than its vast catalogue of audio.Still reeling from all this headline double whammy the boys welcome in, statistically speaking, a guest that John has more questions for than almost any to come before - it's Andy Zaltzman!There's also Wolverhampton connecting, a man screams in the gym and John remains the most fearless little fighter around as he graduates to sitting up.Get yourselves over to BBC Sounds. It's the *only* place for the Bureau de Change of The Mind.It's elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk if you enjoy the medium of electronic mail, and 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp if you enjoy the medium of instant messaging.
