S3 E15: The Bubble

In the world of P&R this week, so much happens. And frankly, it's almost too painful to talk about. So Kirsty and Ellie employ the comfort blanket of Sarah McLaughlin to power through the pain of Li'l Sebastian passing away. Sending condolensces to you all. Chris goes into a health spiral, Donna's Italian accent is shite, Leslie and Ben get caught smooching, and we learn what is 5000 times better than A Candle In The Wind. On the K&E side of things, Ellie goes above and beyond in her recap rap, and there's more singing than usual. Sending more condolensces to you all.

In the world of P&R mayo woman is confused why drinking non-drinking water gave her an infection, Stuart receives unfounded critique from Leslie, and it's Mort's move. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, we are sorry for the unforgiveable delay between the last episode and this one. It is Kirsty's fault.

In the world of P&R Jerry knows where Donna best likes to get it on, Ron gives a young child a land mine, and Leslie FINALLY makes out with Ben on his mouth despite Chris' boggling. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, we discuss the upcoming boat podcast.

We're back with part 2 of the live show, featuring the wonderful Adon as guest caller for the quiz. In this half, we opt to actually discuss the show Parks and Recreation. In the world of P&R, we learn what percentage of Jan Coopers chlamydia affects, some lucky sod is in pre-broth stage, and bababooey. The Kirsty and Ellie side of things is very much a continuation of last time, as is inherent from the format of an episode broken into two. We managed to keep this to under 1hr 4mins, as per many of your requests.

This week, the usual format is out the window. The world of P&R doesn't factor in hugely, except in the dastardly form of snakejuice, on which both the hosts are mildly inhebriated. It is the long-awaited LIVE SHOW, that we completely forgot about and decided to call in regular listeners of the show last-minute. Kirsty talks over Ellie a lot, there is little coherence, and we massively overran so had to cut the episode into two. Part 1 is all pre-ep-breakdown ramble, hence the lack of P&R commentary in this description. But as many of our listeners have said, "the bit at the beginning is the best anyway", and we hope that statement still stands when the hosts are ethanoically comprimised. We'll be back next week with part 2.

In the world of P&R Ron destroys Tyrone's balloons, arsen is repeatedly suggested, and Lindsay Carlisle-Shay is a real piece of work. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, Kirsty transcends the need for verbal communication in conversation, and Ellie's metaphor game remains VERY strong.

In the world of P&R Brandi defines pornography, neither Andy nor April have bank accounts, and topless Leslie gets glued to a horse. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, we bring knowledge of medicinal drugs and primary school maths.

In the world of P&R Andy doesn't know what a peach is, sewage Joe is handing out invites to the toilet party, and Leslie and Tom kiss, which is royally unpleasant. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, there are some lovely chopping sounds in the background as the lasses prepare to enjoy a stir fry.

In the world of P&R we meet Orin, Donna guides Ann through a jungle of men, and April and Andy get married without Harris realising. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, the audio is better, but Ellie's ability to say the 5 tiers of question which we've been doing for almost 40 episodes is drastically worse. Kirsty struggles with naming the male equivalent of a bachelorette party.

In the world of P&R Leslie doubles her 3.5hr sleep schedule in the hope of generating some new ideas, Jerry's daughter is getting some, and Clacko abruptly bites the dust. On the Kirsty and Ellie side of things, we still have bad audio, but determine that the moon is even worse. Ellie gives the summary of Married At First Sight that you never knew you needed. There's also an ASMR treat for listeners who stick with us to the very end.
