  • #78 Recreation (Part 2)
    Nov 26 2024

    This is Part 2! For Part 1, check the feed!


    Elis’ is off filming his stand-up Christmas special, so we’re delighted to welcome in his stead the star of Radio X, Pappy’s and the Beckenham fireworks display: Matthew Crosby! And we’ll be discussing Recreation; how the vikings spent their spare time, the smash hit Tudor game of Fives and the national obsession with modelling.


    Plus, it turns out Tom spent his childhood on a chair, up a tree. If you’ve got anything to say about this or anything else, please do drop us an email: hello@ohwhatatime.com
