Who's the most famous name in your contacts? How did you get their number?
For Rory, his phonebook has amassed some impressive entries through a career of working in music, entertainment and professional football.
For Mark, he only needed Rory's number and subsequently became a popular figure backstage at gigs and front-of-house, using his 'nordy' charm and Donald Trump impressions.
Pulling Favours is two mates, talking to mates, and mates of mates, who happen to be famous or revered in their profession.
Don't think of it as a deep-diving, hard-hitting interview podcast. Think of it as three friends, sitting around with some pints, and a recorder in the middle of them.
This is Pulling Favours with Mark and Rory.
