There's no Gaz this week as he's in San Francisco and Andy is off doing the Dark Lord's bidding... so Beans is joined by friend of the show, Dave to take a look at conspiracy theories and how to spot them. We look at 7 conspiracy theories : The Great reset, Bill Gates is a Bond villain, Kubrick faked the moon landings, The Biden election was fraudulent, Scientific proof that we have a soul, chemtrails and Avril Lavigne is Dead. We look at the likelihood that these are true - keeping in mind that Dave is sceptical at best - and try to figure out why conspiracy theories are so popular. We look at the very nature of them and how they are viewed. As always we'd love to hear your opinions on any of this.

#TBR133 It's a football thing!

No Gaz this week but Andy and Beans were joined by Mark Birtles (a Crewe Alexandra fan and regular on The Railwaymen podcast) and Dave Cartlidge (a Man U fan and girls' team coach of a local team). We talked about a lot of the issues that surrounded the sport that we all love. It's difficult to talk abou the game without looking at the gulf in the finances between the Premier league and league 2, how the English press can influence our opinions on players, players loaned out from the big clubs to the lower leagues and of course how the English Ladies recently made history. Go grab yourself a cold one and enjoy! You can get 20% off your order at ollys-ollys.com just by listening to this podcast.
