Summary

There are certain people on this planet who seem to have pubs built into their DNA. Every fibre of their being aligns with the mystic vibrations that make taverns the magical places they are. And this week we are honoured to welcome such an individual. He’s more than a man; in fact we’d go as far as to say he’s a drinking deity. It’s comedian, writer, and man of the people Will Hodgson!

If you’ve not been lucky enough to come across Wil yet then prepare for the time of your life. As well as being on of the funniest people in the country he’s also one of the friendliest, and has a story for every occasion (which makes him the perfect pub guest). He’s also a proud son of Chippenham, the ‘Jewel of Wiltshire’, and we cannot wait to hear some of his stories of local pub legend.

1:32.8	Welcome to the moon underwater, everyone, the mystical pub of the mind.
1:38.1	And first off, before we start, as with, I don't know if you ever been to a mystical desire pub of the mind before
1:45.0	but like all mystical
1:48.0	pubs of desire, please don't order food using the QR
1:51.7	codes during the show.
1:54.3	But I know what you think you're thinking. And the moon
1:56.1	underwater looks a little bit empty tonight, John.
1:59.7	It seems to be an absence.
2:02.0	And I would say, yes, well, the moon underwater sort of comes with a general feeling of absence
2:05.9	amongst the atoms.
2:07.1	But there's also a very genuine absence of people in the moon underwater.
2:12.3	So first of all, I think it's time if we stop him hammering against the glaze.
2:22.1	And welcome in the moon under water's regular, the lovely Robin Allander. Yes.
2:27.8	Oh, hello.
2:34.5	Matins, Robin. Matins, Robin, Matins.
