Great podcast now you're back

Really don't like the new format. Boring and impersonal. Was just going to stop listening when I downloaded the last episode. Excellent! We've got the old Ben and Shaun back - keep it like that chaps and I'll be there every week.

Graeme Simpson ,

Random & rambling but very enjoyable.

Never slaves to what the listeners might think, and oblivious to dead air. Our heroes ramble and rant like a and Napoleon Dynamite about anything from loud keyboard noises to Ben broadcasting from his closet.

Essential and unmissable.

Mostly horrible

If you've ever wanted to know what a podcast would sound like if two people with no aptitude for the medium sat around and talked about how fast their broadband is for an hour, this is the show for you.
