*NO LONGER PRODUCING NEW EPISODES* Already being described as "the worst way to spend a long commute", the De Trout Spinners is a nostalgic dive into the hilarious, chaotic and oddly sweet world of the 2001-2005 Xfm Ricky Gervais Show. Join hosts Miles and Gary as they take a retrospective look through the Xfm RSK archive, breaking down each episode chronologically each week, in wistful, loving and (they hope - wrongly) humorous episodes.

    Episode 61 | Small Bottle Behind The Cafetière

    I very much doubt that people are gonna fly to Addis Ababa to see The De Trout Spinners. This week we discuss Series 4 | Episode 3 | 11 June 2005. Ricky takes Karl on a day out to a golf course. Ricky intercepts fool-proof cooking instructions from Karl's girlfriend, Suzanne, and Karl reminisces about the day he tried to put sausages in a toaster.

    Bonus Episode | Boys Are Back In Town

    Good news and bad news. Good news is, boys are back in town. We're here for an Xfm in the Community Special. Bad news is, we have no monkey news, gay fella news, or little Chinese fella news. Great to be back with you Spinners, we've missed you and being in podcast land! We've been flooded with lots of your wonderful emails and questions so we wanted to dedicate some proper time to them. If you have some feedback or tinpot theories you'd like to share with the wider community then please email or tweet us, we love to hear from you.

    His Little Legs | Educating Gary

    Hey Spinners, we hope you're having a fab Summer and staying cool in this blazing heat (presumably if you're a fat German nudist you'll be lovin' it). We wanted to share our sincere apologies for the lack of content recently. We're both experiencing a bit of a tricky time at the moment with ongoing personal / health related issues which is conflicting with the regularity of our recordings. But rest assured, Gary is at home with his Mam an' Dad with a cold ashtray, and I'm perusing the chicken fillets in the frozen aisle, so it's only a matter of time until we're back swinging on our tyres with lots of new twaddle. To tide you over until then, we're sharing an episode from our Patreon archive and sister podcast 'His Little Legs'. This discussion was originally recorded back in February 2021 where Gary took a GCSE History revision quiz and we shared more stories of shame.

    Episode 60 | Jeff's Garage. Cheaper Than Some Other Garages.

    The De Trout Spinners. It’s like Celebrity Love Island without the sun and slappers. This week we discuss Series 4 | Episode 2 | 4 June 2005. Ricky dedicates the show to a group of scientists working in the Antarctic and Karl doesn't want anyone to put their finger up his arse.

    Bonus Episode | Hello Ladies

    I want to thank the ladies, cause you know, it's nothin' without the ladies. We're obsessed with listener demographics, but noticed that even though the Xfm shows are growing in popularity everyday there is still a huge gender disparity between male and female listeners. Why there are so few female listeners? To shed some light on this, we invited a panel of our listeners onto the podcast for a bonus extended edition where we had an open, honest discussion about gender in comedy. A big thanks to our three contributors; Daisy, Stacey and Ellie, who were excellent company and offered some refreshing, unique insights. We're always looking for new distinct perspectives, approaches and ideas for podcast episodes so please do get in touch if you have one. If you enjoy the show then please tell your friends, give us a 5* review on Apple Podcast and support us on Patreon for lots of bonus Miles & Gary content.

    Episode 59 - Part 1 | Try Both

    Since You Been Gone by Rainbow, since we've been gone... This week we discuss Series 4 | Episode 1 | 28 May 2005. The show returns, Ricky and Stephen are standing in for Adam and Joe. They comment about how nothing has changed, except that the listenership has gone down possibly because each year a few old XFM listeners die, of smack addictions or gout. Ricky unveils some genuinely exciting prizes for Rockbusters, Karl talks about his testicles then gets a champagne cork shot at his head.
