This month's quiz is all things Birmingham, we talk about Your Friends & Neighbors (AppleTV) Nina brain-farts a takeaway order, and we present Commander Lawrence the Humidity Skink - "say goodbye to dry cake blues!"

Meanwhile Rob and I enjoy some cracking beers from Hogs Back down in lovely Surrey.

Definitely NOT a cry for help.

DOOMSDAY DOUBLE, Bonus episode.

A couple of episodes ago we presented part one of our doomsday special. Then last episode we recorded part two, but because we're insufferable gum flappers, we didn't have room to include it.

So, as a bit of a bonus, I've put the two parts together to release as a standalone.

This is JUST the kind of solid gold content usually reserved for Patreon.

Luckily, neither Nina or I can be arsed working out how Patreon works, so you get it for free.

So play the lot together, or just the new second half. We're not the boss of you.

Part 1 - bunkers, part 2 - rations.
