Summary

*This is part 2 of Rhys James'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*

There's a disturbance at The Moon Under Water. Yes, if you look out the foggy windows you'll notice that the Mists are starting to sway... and that can only mean one thing. It looks like a guest is about to enter the vacinity and we are so excited, because making their way into the Correct Realm is the wonderful Rhys James!

Rhys is one of the UK's most beloved comedians, and he heralds from the coolest city in the world. That's right: Swindon. Not only is it the home of XTC, Gilbert O'Sullivan and Dean Ashton, it's also the home to some cracking boozers, and we can't wait to hear about some of Rhys's favourites. But don't just expect him to lament about Swindon; we're sure he's going to tick-off plenty of Wiltshere's big hitters; such as Cricklade, Wilton and Amesbury. Rhys is currently on tour! Look him up in your mind and treat yourself to a wonderful night in the Other Realm.

0:36.2	An actor? Are we an actor, Reese?
0:40.3	Not really much evidence to suggest that, no. But, you know, trying to be. So if you're
0:44.7	hiring, look elsewhere because I've got an empty CV. Yeah, I've never been into the acting scene.
0:50.0	However, I have recently been told about some of my peers how much they're earning in America,
0:55.7	and it really has made me rethink most of my life choices.
1:00.3	You're a very fine actor, John.
1:01.5	Well, not for the last 25 years.
1:04.6	You just can't be ruling out on podcasts, though.
1:07.2	Yeah, I'm not sure if news at my performance at the Castle School, school plays, has reached L.A. yet. But maybe I should send one of the old VHSs. I think my
1:15.7	mum still got it. My mum cried at your smike in Nicholas Nickleby. She did. She did.
1:21.9	If only that had translated into a recurring role in Ted Lassow.
1:26.7	But it's not going to be.
1:28.8	It's not going to be.
1:29.5	I don't know.
1:29.8	Maybe they need a smike.
1:30.9	I've never watched it.
1:31.8	I wonder if they do need a smike, actually.
1:34.6	Which is sort of withered soccer player.
1:37.5	Yeah.
