If it is to be said, so it be... so it is. Welcome aboard, we're about to do the knock and invite Jesse up to our cabin for the full dirty on the season two finale, ‘This Is Not For Tears’ - does he have the vim, though? Are his toenails aesthetically pleasing? How many severed d**ks could he fit into his B-bag? And does he wonder if the sad he'd b…

The Glacier View Mountain Trail north of Columbia Falls begins on the border of Glacier National Park. This out-and-back trail is about 8 miles roundtrip, and despite beginning your ascent via switchbacks, the first few miles are still quite steep. But the view at the top is worth the effort. Looking east from the summit, you’ll be greeted with gor…

What is the difference - is there a difference - between a generic bout of bad breath and simply stinking of a single food item? How offensive can we get when discussing the elderly? Especially given it's a demographic far closer to either of us than, say, youth. All this and more thanks to a single visit to a National Trust property. Plus we talk …

We welcome everyone to today’s hearing, where Jesse Armstrong will be facing scutiny on the penultimate episode of season two. Is he unusually subject to the vicissitudes of public opinion? Do the phrases "human furniture" or "footstooling" mean anything to him? And is he now - or has he ever been - a member of the Cruise Dirty Sеxf**k Cover-up Par…

The Suce Creek Trail is a lovely and less-visited route on the edge of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. It’s at its best in the fall, when the aspens glow golden in the afternoon light and the leaves form a crunchy carpet on the trail surface. In the winter, when the road to the trailhead is snowed-in, don skis or snowshoes and trek a few miles t…

Dundee in the motherf**king house! This week, Jesse talks us through Logan's homecoming episode. Is $5.29 an unreasonable price for a bag of gypsum?

We're back with Jesse Armstrong to digest the bolus of gubbins that is season two, episode seven, 'Return'. Did he get jerked off by his personal trainer at the end of sessions?

We hole up with Succession’s showrunner and involve him in our disgusting little stratagems, as we dig into Safe Room, written by Georgia Pritchett.
