Summary

If you were to ask John Robins to describe today’s show he’d probably call it a whole load of foxtrot, uniform, November (or for those that detest the phonetic alphabet: fun). The nods and winks were working like a charm and the chemistry between radio’s most dynamic duo was at an all time high; and even a controversial Made Up Game wasn’t going to change that! We caught up with resident statistician Ross to commemorate a 5 Live milestone, Elis gave us an update on his housing situation, John demonstrated a questionable understanding of human anatomy and a Shame Well left everyone reeling.

0:04.6	Hello everyone, welcome to the introduction to the podcast of the Ellis James and John Robbins
0:10.4	show. We do hope you're well. We have just done our two way. Who was it with?
0:15.9	Stefan Paulwell. Ruined everything. Absolutely. And car crash. Talked exclusively to Ellis
0:22.4	about Welsh football. Played audio that we'd specifically requested not be played. Didn't
0:27.8	ask. Didn't even reference the fact I existed. You actually spoke for quite a while.
0:32.0	He sounded like that. But I think his his cans must have been down. Yeah. Or because he didn't
0:37.2	make reference to an awful lot of the pretty vociferous opinions I voiced. Wales are through
0:43.4	to the football world cup. First time since 1958 after a huge night in Cardiff last week.
0:48.7	One of those lucky enough to be in the stadium for that win over Ukraine was five lives Ellis
0:54.8	James. And Ellis I think if you listen carefully you might be able to hear yourself in
0:59.2	here somewhere. Are you singing along Ellis? Because I just can't help myself but sort of
1:13.2	sing along to it. I just sit and watch it and listen. Ellis stop talking about football now because
1:17.2	we're going to be doing that on our shows. As I just mentioned, our producer should have given a
1:21.6	heads up about that. So if we just talk about something else that would be great. We're sorry
1:25.8	John I can't ask all questions about exclusively just about football now. It was amazing to be there
1:31.8	I imagine Ellis but what's been great for people who I know who have friends of mine who don't
1:37.1	realise the sort of journey that Welsh football has gone on at the same time as sort of Welsh cultural
1:44.2	sort of confidence. They've kind of gone in parallel. How does it script for the intro to our show?
1:48.8	It was very interesting actually to hear presenter on presenter Agro live on the radio.
1:56.7	And for one of them to be completely ignored. I think to be fair you've got
2:02.8	a Stephane as Welsh. Very good broadcast. Lovely man by the way. I'm on the fence.
