Episode B40
The Return of Polichips
Show broadcast on 9 June 2017
The boys had ELECTION FEVER today, which meant only one thing - it's time for sauce chat. On top of that, the stars of Bat Out Of Hell - the Meatloaf musical - joined Elis & John in the studio, and we learnt that quizzing can't be late.
Conversations and riffs
It was the 2017 General Election yesterday, which means the return of Polichips - what do you put on your chips and who did you vote for?
John had a prank pulled on him while attending an election-themed pub quiz.
Remember John's idea for a musical based on the songs of Meat Loaf? (Episode 135) Somebody else has only blummin' gone and done a Meat Loaf musical! Elis and John are joined by two of the stars of the West End show.
Elis James' Light-Hearted Paper Review
Elis' selection of humorous stories from this week's newspapers.
More and more people suffer from short sightedness but footballers generally have good eyesight because their eyes are trained to read the game at different distances and situations. Elis: "So if you want to improve your eyesight, get outside this weekend." John: "Get your eyeballs out and get looking."
The subject of John's hairless body comes up again. John: "Smooth as an eel, except in the usual places. And even then, it's light."
Humblebrag
More examples of that scourge of social media, the humblebrag.
When your husband complains you don't do enough around the house and you have to point out how you pay for almost all the chores to be outsourced.
