#399 - The Second Petard, Pad Thai for Breakfast and 11 Reasons to be Cheerful

The boys are kicking off 2025 with contrasting vibes: Johnny JR is feeling grateful, whereas poor Elis is starting the New Year with the sniffles.

The boys are kicking off 2025 with contrasting vibes: Johnny JR is feeling grateful, and the team think of 11 (slightly unusual) reasons for him to be cheerful (think white teeth, think flat ears). Poor Elis on the other hand is starting the New Year with the sniffles, so regales us of his Christmas antics down the line.

And is it a case of new year new pod? Will this chance of renewal be grasped by our podcasting heroes? Will this be the Great Reset 2.0? We鈥檒l let you decide, but do bear in mind there are a lot of emails about guffs, there鈥檚 an argument about the Cymru Connection, and John explains how he spent Christmas Day in a Premier Inn.

If one of your New Year鈥檚 resolutions is to send in more top quality correspondence to one of your favourite podcasts, then you鈥檙e in luck! We will happily assist in achieving your goal. Just send any old nonsense to elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk, or WhatsApp the show on 07974 293 022, and your resolution will be complete.
