    Can't tell if Barney Ronay properly dislikes James Richardson going on today or just leaning into a bit.

    I've never detected anything dislikeable about Richardson, other than being a massive remoaner, but then he's probably in the top 10 people in the UK who gains most benefit from us being in the European Union so you can understand it.

    I've got Luke & Pete Show + Chapo.

    And seeing as you probably haven't listened to it before. Check out Tarfu Report. It's a podcast with Matt Taibi (politics writer at Rolling Stone) and Alex Pareene (used to be pretty high up at Gawker) talking shit.

    Does anyone else listen to Casefile? I love it, the stories are so well told and usually fascinating. The guy goes into extraordinary detail.

    I'll start a lot of episodes and make it through around half. It's well done but depends on the content.

    I've listened to every episode at work. I'm listening to Jonestown part 1 today.

    It's the cheering that gets me when they announce they've killed the Congressman at the airfield that gets me.

    I was pointed towards Hard History the other day, about halfway through an episode about Caeser and Gaul which is very good. Long though, this one clocks in at about six hours.

    The First World War One is great. Something about Armageddon. 5 parts of about 5 hours each or something silly.

    Yeah I saw those, it's something of an achievement when you can make six hours on a short period of Celtic history seem like the more manageable option. Really enjoyed it though so at some point I'll go back and listen to some of those.

    I've been trying to get in to these whilst working but I can't concentrate on it and end up missing important chunks. How do you lot listen to them?

    Do you not find that it requires a fairly high amount of attention? Especially one with complex historical content and shit.

    I tried it once but I have a weakness with American accents. Will give them another go at some stage.

    There are some things I couldn't do at the same time, playing a game or anything that required reading for example but other than that I don't have a problem doing one thing while listening to another.

    I listen at work when I’m doing process based tasks, running reports, etc. Anything that requires some thought and I have to switch it off.

    Just caught the Reviewables live there. Think it goes out on Tuesdaynext but I don't know how it'll work on audio. Karl Spain is a funny man though.
    Dubland next.

    Dunphy calling out Ken Early for a debate

    Though it could well be a setup between them both to sell out a live show.

    Casefile's Jonestown stuff is indeed fantastic and grim. The dull Aussie narration fits it well.

    Has anyone given “quickly Kevin, will he score?” a go?

    It’s a podcast all about 90’s football. I think my highlight so far has either been them going though (one of) Steve Bruce’s books and lolling at it or the one where they watched “the impossible job” and discussed that documentary.

    Episode 1000 for Second Captains tomorrow. The subscription thing seems to have gone well for them and, for the most part, the episodes themselves have been good.

    I can never work out if they're all joking about it or it's all deadly serious.

    I don't think Barney Ronay was joking.

    What did Barney Ronay say? I've listened to both once since they fragmented and binned them off.

    No doubt he's said the same thing twelve times.

    I like to think of Barney as Miles Krane, I think his jabs have truth behind them but he's more interested in a joke.

    It was more his tweets I've seen that seemed to be deadly fucking serious and accusing them of plagiarism.

    Thinking about getting a Second Captains subscription for Christmas. Do you think it's worth it if you couldn't give a shit about Rugby or anything Irish like GAA? @Giggles

    You should be fine as far as GAA goes as they'd be widely regarded as having the poorest coverage of it and would only give it any meaningful time when both championships get to the latter stages around July (finals in August). There is a fair bit of rugby these days as I find myself skipping a lot myself but there's enough soccer to make the sub worth it, especially with it coming to a world cup year and all. You'll also have less Irish international soccer coverage because they didn't qualify and they don't give the league of Ireland the time of day.

    He's basically a walking advertisement for mental health any time he's on radio or TV these days too. I don't know if he's still at it on the podcast but I always avoided it because of it. The knacker Limerick accent doesn't help either as no matter what he's saying it just sounds like he's about to rob someone's wallet.

    There will be at least one per week you'll completely skip so make your own mind up if that's worth the fiver. It is for me.

    I just got an email from Patreon to say Sid Lowe is today's guest. Apologies, I should have told you to punch whoever was buying the subscription for you.

    The podcasting world always lazy as fuck over the Christmas period. How do these two bit journos on minimum wage justify taking two weeks off, some of us have commutes and lunch breaks to fill.

    If you liked video games you'd be set with Giant Bombs game of the year stuff. 15 hours of it and there's another 10 to come between now and Friday.

    I mixed that up (it was early too) and when I seen Sid Lowe I automatically thought of Graeme Hunter the fucking cretin. Lowe is grand, I undeleted it when I copped.
