ACTUAL TRIGGER WARNING The Bruce Is Loose! That is to say, the Bruce is a rapist. Nathan's away but that wasn't going to stop Droo and Riordan spending 50 minutes almost exclusively talking about one of the great Krummupance slash own goals ever witnessed. So roll away the (Philosophers) stone and crack open the Defamber of secrets, because as we always say, you can't defame a rapist.

EGG ON OUR NORKS: after unfortunate new details about Kate Middleton's condition came to light this week, will the PMP boys reconsider their position and perhaps walk back some of their recent 'defamebery' content, or foolishly double down in true PMP style? We also try to diagnose Hagrid's learning difficulties and serve some much needed Viktor Krumuppance to the mouth-breathing degenerates running around at Channel 7.

Well I’m proud to say that this week we’re talking all about GASMS which is an absolutely feral and very stupid term that you may have never come across in polite society… but we’ll more than make up for it on page 207!

No time to explain our insanely prolonged absence… we have to talk some serious 🏈🏈FOOTBALL 🏈🏈 specifically the grandiose spectacle that was Super Bowl LVIII with its multitude of thrills, spills and Sunday etc. And more importantly, with the rugby league heading to Las Vegas in a mere matter of weeks, what lessons can the NRL learn from the high-profile romance between Taylor Swift and Kansas City’s very own Dr Frasier Crane? 🥰  We also objectify Usher in frankly obscene fashion, inspect the...

Well it really didn't take long for all the goodwill and enthusiasm we built up after last week's 200th pod to completely evaporate in the face of some extremely annoying technical malfoynctions and our trademark lack of skill and content. But at least we still managed to swing by the Voldemart to pick up some essentials, stick it to Big Pharma in idiotic PMP style, and meet a game-changing new character in the dark forest... RONAN!
