#506 - Well Well Well Well Well

Elis James and John Robins

Available for over a year

Who’s that unrecognisable figure sat across from John!? He looks full of beans, he looks young and vibrant. Why, it’s Circuit Elis! And he’s so back. After playing the country’s most bafflingly playable gig, Elis’s mood and confidence are at an all time high. He’s perfected his opening gambit, he’s got the country’s best bullet-pointed set. That is until John bursts his bubble… John on the other hand talks us through his miracle morning that comes complete with its own (and very on brand) acronym. He also describes how he’s recently boarded the porridge train, before sending a listener to the sin bin for challenging the autonomy of the UK plug. You know what they say; if you come for Dame Caroline Harriet Haslett DBE’s Type G UK plug, you best not miss. Send in your plug eulogies to [email protected] or WhatsApp them to 07974 293 022 (preferable using a plugged in appliance).
