  • Ep 304b: Worst Funeral Redux - with Pete Donaldson

    Ep 304b: Worst Funeral Redux - with Pete Donaldson
    Sep 16 2024

    With Barry absent in Ireland for a funeral, we had to cancel our recordings this month. Apologies! But it allows us to revisit episode 230 which was about the Worst Funerals! We both agreed it was a belter when we recorded it, so - like all the best funerals - it deserves an encore.
