    One last trip to The Virtual Pub... *CHRISTMAS SPECIAL*

    Here we are - the Christmas Special edition and (maybe) final episode of The Virtual Pub. It's been a while since you've heard from us! We've been busy with life in this sh*tshow we call 2020, and rather than be overwhelmed by overcommitting ourselves to too much, we're calling it a day and going out with a bang - an episode with no pricks, just good times and a bumper quiz. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for listening to this show - something that started as a way to distract ourselves from the world on fire. Have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! Love, The Virtual Pub team xo

    Hello from Tier 3! Ben Bradley is a prick. Why are we even debating Free School Meals?

    Well butter my balls! It feels good to be back (that is a reference to something we say in the show - I'm not just being deliberately gross). Welcome back to The Virtual Pub. It's been a while, hasn't it! Got a lot to catch up on, both in our own lives and in the news - here's what we've got coming up. Since this is the first time we've all spoken in a while, we spend the first half hour catching up - going over the highs and lows of life throughout October, including Jason turning into a single Mum and the pub staff returning to the podcast after the tier 3 closures in Nottingham! After this, it's time to pick a prick - Jason's choice of Mansfield MP Ben Bradley evolves into a wider discussion about the whole Free School Meals debacle. Primarily, why is it even a debate to begin with? And what needs to happen? We go long, but it's really important we go into this! Now for some good news, including water on the moon and Scooter with their Christmas Number One attempt! And finally, the pub quiz and final thoughts. Enjoy the show?

    Beer made from a Whale's testicle!? We expose Nottingham's Robin Hood Energy and Mark Dolan is a moron

Please subscribe and rate us five stars!

    The pubs are re-opening! Is it too soon? And f*ck Nazis (not in a good way)

    Is it too soon to re-open the pubs? And 75 years after World War Two, why are we still being hassled by Nazis? Grab a drink, as we talk about the biggest stories of the week in The Virtual Pub - the perfect podcast for those who miss going to the pub in this particular pandemic. Buy us a pint on Patreon: patreon.com/m/mrjasonengland On this week's episode... (0:00) We welcome you all back to The Virtual Pub  (8:00) The pubs are re-opening! The Virtual Pub is not so "virtual" anymore, as the Government announces pubs can re-open on Saturday 4th July. With two of us who love the pub and two who work at bars, we're in a unique position to answer one simple question - is it too soon? (39:00) It's time to pick a prick - this week, we talk about the prick who flew the "white lives matter, burnley" flag from the plane (he got sacked - good riddance), and Norman Tebbitt (who CORRECTION: wrote for The Telegraph) saying that Nazis were left wing? (52:13) Now for some good news - Chicken Run is getting a sequel and two amazingly wholesome stories that I won't ruin for you here... (58:23) And finally, the pub quiz and housekeeping. PODCAST NEWS: Next week's episode will be the last of series 1. With a couple of us returning to work at pubs, we've got to rethink how we record the show and want to take a couple weeks reviewing & improving what we do on the show. Look forward to us returning later in July. We will announce a specific date soon.
