Summary

*This is part 2 of Barry Glendenning's episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

Legendary. Heroic. Majestical. A Thesaurus can certainly help us describe our next guest at The Moon Under Water, but it'll never quite be able to capture exactly who he is. He's the sort of man that is often seen as the perfect pub guest, and someone that is almost perfectly suited to join us in the Correct Realm. We can't quite believe he's finally here... it's the one and only Barry Glendenning!

Barry may be one of the most beloved football journalists out there... he may also be one of the most beloved podcasters out there... but ultimately, he's known for being the perfect pub guest and a thoroughly lovely guy. He's sampled pints up and down the land, and can slot into any topic of discussion with ease; and we cannot wait to hear what his dream pub looks like.

You can hear Barry on Guardian Football Weekly, and on talkSPORT every Sunday morning.

0:00.0	Thank you.
0:01.0	I'm Welcome back to the Moon Underwater Part 2 of Barry Glenn Dennings dream pub.
0:33.1	Barry is a sports journalist and broadcaster and podcaster of great renown working for the Guardian for 20 years.
0:41.5	You will have heard him on the Guardian Football Weekly, but if you've seen him anywhere,
0:45.8	you've probably seen him in a pub because he is one of the great, if not the great pubsman
0:52.7	of his generation, or indeed any generation.
0:56.2	Barry, before we get back to your pub, we do have to solve the riddles set to us
1:02.5	by the Sphinx that is the lovely Robin Allender in the Moon Underwater Pub quiz.
1:07.7	But I can't wait to hear a little bit more about what your pub's going to look like. So Robin, get us off these ambidextrous tenterhooks. Thanks, John. Yes, this week's Moon
1:16.9	Underwater Pub quiz was all about your left and your right. And question one was new coins are
1:22.1	being minted for Charles III as we speak, but on these new coins will Charles face to the left or to the right? So,
1:28.7	Barry, what are you saying? I'm saying to the right, because I think the queen faced
1:33.8	to the left and he's gone the other way. Interesting, John. Well, he's facing to his right and
1:39.2	our left. Looking at it, which way is he facing? Left. Right. Oh, sorry. I'm just taking a 20p out of my pocket.
1:47.2	She's facing to the right, so he's going left.
1:49.6	The correct answer is left.
1:51.2	Yes, it's in a tradition dating back to Charles II,
1:55.0	the direction in which the head faces alternates between successive monarchs.
1:59.3	So because Elizabeth, the second, faced right, Charles the third, will face left.
2:03.4	And do you know about the whole Edward VIII thing?
2:05.7	He was looking up.
2:07.8	No.
