T'was the night before Shambles, when all through the Pod, not a creature was Casting, not even a Shambles. Except they were - the creatures that is. Laurie and Paddy. They were casting. Podcasting. Podshambles. Anyway. IT'S CHRISTMAS and so here is a special extended Podshambles just for you. Paddy questions whether or not the ham has gone off, Laurie surprises everyone with the introduction of his new character 'Good Will', and the Shamblecubs embark on a festive adventure through...

Two pints of Poddingtons and a packet of WorCASTer Sauce crisps please. Thank you. Oh hang on I think you gave me the wrong change. Oh no, my mistake. Thanks. Christmas is nearly upon us, so it's about time for Podshambles 37. Those Shamblelfs are getting restless. Laurie finally goes through his 'NO' phase, Paddy tackles nudity, and the fruity pair of fruit-bears give us a taste of Shamble Karaoke. Download now for our eleven top tips for staying warm this winter! All that remains is one...

Another Podpun? Sorry mate I can't be Cast. The aces are high and the deck is loaded in favour of the Shamblegamblers in this saloon - Podshambles 36 really has it all. The team muse over their latest DnD session, Laurie gets a wet chest, and Paddy discovers both Deliveroo and Pointless on the same day. It will blow your mind. Tinker with the fusion schematics, recalibrate the advanced targeting module and meet me on the holodeck - we're taking this sucker down.

Poddy (Poddy) / The little man in the red and yellow Cast. That's right - we're now at the point where I'm crowbarring Noddy references into descriptions as there are only so many words that rhyme/half-rhyme with pod, cast, or podcast. The Shambleboots are laced this week as Paddy & Laurie take you on a journey through forgotten James Bond movies, the ever increasing pretentiousness of music genres, and what happens when you shine a torch into a lemur's eyes. There's even a generous...

Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho / It’s off to pod we cast / We’ll keep on shambling all day long / Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho Heigh-Ho Heigh-Ho. It’s a real honky-tonk this week in Shambalala as Paddy undergoes rigorous psychological profiling, Laurie unleashes his new theme tune and Flagon uncovers the secrets of the Orville Memorial Duck Sanctuary. Keep your powder dry and your hats jaunty - this Turpin just got dicked.

It's all gone a bit fantastical this week at Shambleville U.S.A (Pod-ulation: Cast) as Paddy & Laurie take a weekend away together to - you guessed it - play Dungeons & Dragons. There will be dogs. There will be hangovers. There will be Two-Handed Bearded Axes of Gnoll-Slaying +1. You better get your D20s out as this podcast is about to get critical.

Sound the shamble-horns and alert the village elders - there's a fangorious pod-beast on the loose and it's coming right for us. Under its fleshy jowls this week: Paddy and Laurie put the Twitter phenomenon that is #100HappyDays to task, share some heartwarming tales of childhood vandalism before catching up with Flagon the Dwarf, Barbossa the pirate King and Oliver, the other one, in another exciting, unplanned episode of CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE. Send in your thoughts, suggestions and...

A rolling pod gathers no shambles, but a shambles in time saves you big money cash sums. It's time for another rollicking good time with Paddy and Laurie as they crawl their little butts into another enormous Shamble-cavern. There's hi-jinks ahoy and jeopardy aplenty as we undertake not one, not two, not four, but yes, that's right, THREE quizzes that plumb the very depths of man's soul! And determine which 2003 snooker player we are. Then there's just about time to swap some choice book...

Shambles. Shambles never changes. But this week it has. A little bit. It's episode 30 of our Podshambling antics and we celebrate by revisiting some old features! Yay! We check in with Number One Fan Mauricio Pochettino and give him some otter-related tips for the new Tottenham stadium, we get some VERY overdue correspondence from a certain courier fish and, oh, what's that? You want some Choose Your Own Adventure? Well pop this installment in your mouth hole and chew wisely, friend, chew...

Cleanliness is next to Podliness, and Podliness is next to Castliness. The Shambled-Eggs are back again and they sure know how to be served with toast. Genuinely gasp as Laurie brings you into the 21st century, potentially wail as Paddy continues the tale of Flagon the Dwarf in Choose Your Own Adventure, and aggressively jump as maestro Zac Cole returns to the Shamblewaves. Fluff the pillows, repair the stairs, buy more towels and do not under any circumstances give those towels to the...

Pod through the Cast / and you're to blame / you give Cast / a Pod name. Or something. After a hiatus the Shambleggs are back with another thing! Expect Laurie undertaking severe psychological profiling, Paddy genuinely losing control over a one-foot magic butler, and to top it all off - a husky sled team. The night is dark and full of butts. Podshambles is back.

The Podprinces have been Cast away to Shamblerica but golly gee willikers are they bouncing back! Continue your adventures with Padcoolio and Lauradical as they brave the tundras of New York, covering everything from overzealous flag usage to why three and a half feet of bacon is apparently an appropriate substitute for bread. They've only bloody gone and made a YouTube channel too. Expect ham. Or don't. YOUR CALL.

"Those criminals put two of our men in Podybags captain - those poor Castards didn't know what hit 'em." The Shamburglars are back and they've brought goat farming, emu highways, hit new songs and the plot synopsis to the dreadful movie Heathers with them! Oh - and they have also found the ancient Chinese city of Tseng Su because they are rad. So restitch your moccasins, restock the sultanas and win that tombola - Podshambles has arrived.

Crack open the Christmas Podt (that's Port, as in the drink) and tap the Cast of Ale (like Cask, as in a Cask of Ale - these jokes just get better and better) and tuck in to a very Shambolic Christmas. Paddy will inevitably explain the inner workings of an Indonesian Gamelan, Laurie will undoubtably regale you will the details of his new sitcom 'Happy Go Clucky', and the waifish strays will finally settle the big arguments. It is time to choose. Are you BanFlak? Or are you VanChocBo?

The Shamblecars are Podracing again in Cast And Curious 6: This Time It Is Cars Again. Will our star-crossed lovers keep their cool? We certainly hope so. It's a tight corner as Laurie introduces classic character Mike Po-Host, a swift chicane as Paddy relives his childhood broadcast Radio Smile and a cataclysmic collision as special guest Falcon Vendetta bursts onto the scene in a blaze of platinum-record glory. It just got real. Way too real. Really real.

The Podghosts arise from their Castgraves to wiggle their Shamblebums to funky funky beat. That is correct - it is Halloween. And Paddy is very, very hungover. Even as I write this I am not yet fully recovered. I mean seriously. This is the longest and worst hangover I have ever had. Anyway. LISTEN as Laurie talks beards, GASP as Paddy struggles to explain toasters, and COMBUST as the Shamblerangers recreate the Halloween Specials of Friends and Thomas the Tank Engine. There were some...

Just like our fathers, our Podfathers and their Castfathers before them, Laurie and Paddy wrangle their way into another Shamblexpedition to the undiscovered lands. Paddy explores his dark past and his traumatic memories of battery advertising, Laurie well and truly meets the Klumps, and the hip-hop-double-act of some renown reveal what REALLY happened on the Ionian Island of Zakynthos. Ready your bayonets and open your hats - this yacht just went rogue.

The Fairy Podparents have well and truly Cast a naughty/nice Shamblespell and unleashed total and uninhibited chaos upon the land of Crumpton. Season 2 bollocks off in style, with such hard-hitting nodules as wizarding pastimes, Paddy's Big Ball World Cup Ball Adventure Segment, and a whole host of totally original and definitely not hastily thrown together characters. Who ISN'T ready to meet Jean Voyage? HEY?

The Final Broadcast. The End is Nigh. Goodnight. Yours faithfully, Radio Ball. (Where Balls really do come true.)

HERE IS A BALL FOR YOUR THOUGHT-HEAD: HOW MUCH BALL COULD A BALLCHUCK BALL IF A BALLCHUCK COULD CHUCK BALLS? EXACTLY. I HAVE JUST REMEMBERED THE APOSTROPHE THING AND HOW MUCH IT ANNOYS ME SO HAVE REMOVED ALL APOSTROPHES FROM THIS DESCRIPTION. BALL BALL BALL.
