Welcome to The Moon Under Water, a mystical pub of the mind where Landlord John Robins and regular Robin Allender invite guests to create their dream watering hole.
But what’s that noise? Who goes there? It sounds like our first guest is approaching. And as the silhouette reaches ever closer, it reveals itself to be… comedian, broadcaster and experienced pintsman Nish Kumar!
After pulling up a stool at the bar, Nish chooses the drinks that will populate the perfect pub of his dreams, adds an album to the jukebox and decides what he wants barred.
But what would a pub be without good conversation? Join us, as discussion flows from the absurdity of fake books to the perils of drinking too much milk.
