S1E35 - Automatism
15/12/2023 Duration: 50minThis ep is about some legal stuff, but seriously, Automatism is a great name for a band. Anyone able to play anything and want to join?

Probably need a lead singer (1970's Debbie Harry type) and a drummer (Rick Buckler type) and then Automatism can start rehearsing. Anybody...? Hello...?

S1E28 - Greenwood, Binns, Woolmington.
24/08/2023 Duration: 35minEpisode Notes Mason Greenwood was "Cleared of all charges" according to statements from Manchester United and Mason Greenwood himself earlier this week. Was he? Comedian Tom Binns received a suspended sentence last week. Does this mean he was guilty or innocent or somewhere in between of the offences he was charged with? Surely a suspended sentence means he wasn't as guilty as if he'd been sent directly to prison. We also have a listener question and we reveal our favourite listener ever. We recorded this via zoom due to having ridiculous schedules at the moment. Find out more at https://barely-legal-comedy-podcast.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
