Mulio ,

Lovely stuff

A fantastic podcast that is welcoming, warm, funny & interesting. Peter’s tales will reel you in straight away. Such a wholesome and enjoyable podcast. Great work gents

That Song From That Movie ,

Down the Pub

This podcast really does feel like you are down the pub enjoying a pint* and reminiscing about the past. Very laid back and easy to get lost in the stories.

*I mean that in the fun pre-COVID world sense!

Ripper time ,

Insomnia cure!

Since listening to Peter’s pootlings I’ve dispensed with my sleeping pills and just take him to bed instead lol
No, just a joke folks, this is seriously relevant rambling for those of a certain age who may have trod the hippie trail out east or think they may have but have forgotten the details. And a witty, informative social history of those times, useful for young bucks who want to know what it felt like to be up the Khyber without a care...
If you can remember it, you probably weren’t there.
