The Tom & Jo Show is a podcast based on the conversations of a real life couple, Tom & Jo.

Disclaimer: Jo doesn’t believe the Internet to be a tool for looking up facts during the show, and alcohol is occasionally consumed before & during recording, so anything that isn’t accurate at the time of recording can’t be held against us.
