Me and my girlfriend put John bobbins and Elis podcast on every night when we get into bed, It’s soothing and comforting and very funny and quirky and the repeated items and running jokes - it’s a lovely little world to enter every night and we like to get into that headspace We’ve had this same...Read full review »

This is what I need in my life. Can’t stop enjoying. That John, what a man.

It’s has the odd funny moment but the endless mentions of Queen and Wales start to grate after a while. As does Robins tongue in cheek Partridgesque presentation style. Elis James seems like a decent bloke but he just isn’t funny. Even Robins gets tired of having to perform the polite laugh after...Read full review »

This starts as a podcast to keep you company and then it becomes a way of life. I can’t imagine a day not in the presence of Elis & John making me laugh and occasionally cry. Start listening and join the family

So much time... but this archive was a find after enjoying the lockdown podcasts so much.

Listening to every episode after falling in love with the 5 Live podcast over lockdown. Their podcasts keep me going and their radio sections inspire me to work on radio myself.

My new favourite pod. Very funny and easy
ggbbgfhbjf via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/03/19
Such a lovely show that my best friend and I have had an opportunity to bond over since she convinced me to put aside true crime podcasts long enough to give it a try. Working my way through the backlogs got me through my daily bus journey for a year and we’re both crushed that the show has moved...Read full review »

Cringeworthy babble. Embarrassing features. Should have stayed in your bedroom.

Spelt with a silent G, john robbins and Elliot James really pull it out of the bag on this pod ! F’ing funniest coins out there!

Why didn’t I find this podcast years ago? I wouldn’t have wasted my time with inferior shows. So, so funny
whywastemytineeithanickname via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/02/19
Only 6 years late to this podcast. Heard Ellis and John on 5 live and went back to their early Radio X days and jt is absolutely fantastic. They are hilarious and I can not recommend it highly enough

It’s like being in the pub 20 years ago. When you’re driving. Off to your mundane job.

The podcast is all round good fun. It can be a tad heavy at times but if you stick in for the long haul you’ll love it. The pair juxtapose each other in such a way that it will leave the listener on tenterhooks.

Good.

Their friendship and kindness shines through, helping to create a wonderful fan community and making the world just that little bit better. From hilarious shame wells to joyous made up games (not forgetting Queen, Ronnie, the darkness, Wales and football along the way) they’re worth checking out...Read full review »

Simply the funniest most honest podcast from 2 of the UK’s funniest comedians. Thank you John & Elis.
Howard Brazier via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/08/19
For me the Elis James and John Robins podcast has only been part of my life for the past 18 month. During that time it has made me laugh uncontrollably in public, and it’s brought a tear to my eye at the most unexpected times. Please give it a listen, they are genuinely good people and excellent...Read full review »

What can I say about, Elis and John? God question! Well, these two are absolutely worth their weight in gold. John with his precise grammatical vocabulary and knowledge of the English language. His great imagination and quick whit. James with his... high pitches angry voice (which sounds like,...Read full review »

...with my whole heart in fact. Pure pure joy. I’ve listened to them all - many more than once. I can’t believe such entertainment is free.

It’s distractingly funny whilst at work... I’m ok with it
pumbat22 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/13/19
This is a must listen for everyone. Hilarious, comforting and reaffirming that while we are all making a mess of it, we’re doing it together.
