John Robins

John explains the hundreds of grudges he has against one person in particular - himself - and how he's working through them to become a happier person. He then goes to town on the LIV Golf sportswashing from the Saudi Arabian state, who settled a legal dispute with the PGA with a big bag of cash and a merger. Then reveals a little guilty pleasure of his that he actually gets a lot of pleasure out of something that most other people hate. Before all this though, Tiff and John discuss becoming acutely aware of your anus when you reach middle age. Produced by Ped Hunter and Chris Skinner. Hosted on Acast.

Ian Moore

Comedian, author and now French national Ian Moore on how being labelled the 'thick Northerner' by a school teacher has stayed with him, on his wish for France-style revolution in Britain or for the grown-ups to step in and remove the awful current government, and on British people's often inaccurate interpretation of the French. Ian and Tiff then help out a listener with an Angry Aunt problem. Produced by Harriet Wells, Ped Hunter and Chris Skinner. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Lou Sanders

Chris Brookmyre

Acclaimed crime novelist Chris Brookmyre on the old grudge held against him by a commissioning editor who kept giving one particular journalist the job of writing vicious reviews of his books. On how the media narrative of a nation united over the King's coronation boiled his piss. And why his unpopular opinion is his love of the glam rock film Velvet Goldmine.

Andy Zaltzman

Andy Zaltzman of The Bugle, The News Quiz and Test Match Special tells Tiff how being spurned by Mock The Week annoyed him early in his career, how the partisan combative tone of all news these days makes him weary, and how the repetitive formulaic presentation and relentless positivity of reality TV shows like The Great British Bake Off drives him up the wall. He then explains to Tiff how the human race's determination to undo all great work done by other parts of the human race is the greatest of historic beefs Produced by Ped Hunter and Chris Skinner.
