With Wire suffering two losses back-to-back, what follows is a two-hour marathon of insufferable podcasting. Rob fills us in on the veterinary science behind holidaying with Germans, Sam has watched the games back sober and can confirm they’re just as shit, and Dennis is accused of taking pictures of St Helens’ stewards under the watchful eye of Big Brother. There’s Daniel with his combined XIII and a marquee membership on offer over at the Health Retreat. Plus, we say goodbye to the Bungalow...

With both Sam and Rob under the weather it's left to Dennis to prop-up the podcast, but are there any props left? We discover how Warrington exaggerates Josh McGuire's metres, what an NRL bunker's video referee's fit girlfriend looks like, and how moving Gil Dudson into the bungalow to work on his legs is a good idea. We camper van there and back to France, in what seems like excruciatingly real time. Plus, there's a commune crucifixion, and can you resurrect a tax deduction to offset the...

With a touch of amnesia the podcasters discuss the cursed bungalow and run a clickbait social experiment aimed at the free downloading scum. Dennis plans his 17 hour motor homing trip to Catalans, Sam’s dog barking is an ominous sign, and Rob puts his seven year old to work as a 1970’s cement mixer. There’s six of the best, a reduced sitcom, an overstretched vlog, plus a quiz to KickStart the podcast. Enjoy. Please become a patron and save the podcast. www.patreon.com/whatbevan Watch...

Wire make it four from four but Rob continues to push his product placement, Sam refuses to give away his HJ parking spot, and Dennis has been cryogenically frozen away at Hull KR. There’s an NFT conference at the Health Retreat, a superbly recorded Daniel section, vlogging in Cornwall, a mathematical formula to end all mathematical formulas, and is Paul Vaughan an A N Other in disguise? Yes, it’s almost sickening when it comes to this week’s podcasters’ positivity....

It’s two wins from two, but more importantly, how many swallows make a summer and does anyone own the pigeon hanging out at the back of Greggs? There’s shitistical 1.75 discrepancy, bungalow surveillance, a Daryl sighting, vlogging, the sitcom, too much product placement, and an unlimited supply of optimism. Enjoy. Please support the podcast at www.patreon.com/whatbevan Watch Dennis' vlog and buy him a coffee https://www.youtube.com/@tacklebags Today's featured band that was used as a...

Welcome, to the first TACKLEBAGS Rugby League vlog, well sort of!! The first episode in the series sees Dennis packing down for a Rugby Union match. What better way to benchmark the pies of both rugby codes. Exeter Chiefs provide the entertainment for the first TACKLEBAGS outing, where Dennis is joined by May Rears for analysis of the Rugby Union Matchday Experience. After a charge down the motorway, arriving 6hrs early to find the most suitable pitch for the Tackle-van. (25ft from the bar),...

After 126 days the podcast returns. Festooned in prop positivity, centre anxiety, ticking clocks, a rebadged Tacklebags - or whatever it's called, an updated HAL, bungalow surveillance, caveats, one too many quizzes and a new nine minute sitcom. Enjoy patreon.com/whatbevan Dennis' Tackeblogs - YouTube link https://youtu.be/xCHfIgpoeE0

With Sam on-the-edge following a ridiculous Super League disciplinary appeal and a half marathon pencilled in for Sunday, can he endure a two hour review of Warrington’s year? Dennis safely back under a tiled roof and not sheltering beneath his campervan tarpaulin, reintroduces tackle books – but will we all need to hold our breath? Rob takes a break from veganism to commemorate the Queen’s passing and embarks on ‘’mission impossible”, in a vain attempt to come up with Wire’s player of the...

No episode today because of the The Queen's funeral but we will be back next Monday. 

With an antenna stuck up his arse in the Highlands of Scotland, Dennis endeavours to put a positive weak Wi-Fi spin on Daryl's plans. Sam returns from Wales with a spreadsheet formulating why Warrington are so shit. And Rob, after 146 years, can't take anymore. There's a melittology quiz researched from the trust of Wikipedia. Plus there's a wine tasting evening over at Beers. (Don't worry, the season's nearly over) Enjoy.  Please help support the podcast and make sure it's back again next...

Did Dufty single-handedly save Wire from relegation? Has Sam put his Ben Currie picture back up? Will Oliver Holmes take Dennis’ camper van advice and purchase an Outwell 324 with guide rope extension? Could Rob have mistakenly discovered beastiality whilst lying on the settee? And has Daniel’s questioning of Karl Fitzpatrick, given us all the answers? Plus, you can’t beat a bit of bully down at Beers, and WhatBevan launch a new t-shirt at a remarkably competitive price. Enjoy. Please keep...

With two more losses and Warrington on the verge of relegation, Dennis endeavours to remain positive. But with Sam having just returned from Chicken Fest, will Dennis' positivity fall fowl to Rob's baiting of Ben Currie? Beers goes on Location, Location, Location, Location, Location in the search for a bungalow big enough to accommodate 48 props, and Daniel has a CASastrophic soundbite. Enjoy.  Please help support the podcast and become a patron patreon.com/whatbevan

It’s been a month since the last podcast, so has Daryl Powell been able to turn things around at Warrington or, has he now become their player-coach? Dennis overheats and finds himself on the cusp of a military firing range, Sam counts his savings thanks to his absence from the HJ, and Rob’s jet lagged and brandishing an extra 9lbs. Plus, there’s a new drive-thru at Beers, a chance to win a 9 carat gold-plated carriage clock (batteries not included), and just what are a Dutch couple about to...

With the podcasters not privy to Wakefield Warrington footage, Daniel steps in, but beware - his soundbite comes with a government health warning. Live on air, Rob’s reprimanded by his father. Sam burns his favourite player poster, there’s the origin of bungalows, a Cliff Richard quiz, and Beers gambles the night away. And, Dennis records from the graveyard, as due to a lack of patrons, we bury the podcast. Enjoy. pattern.com/whatbevan

With Warrington reaching a 21st century low point, and within touching distance of their own Jubilee Championship, Rob finally blows his top. Dennis enjoys a Dorset nob in his quest to research what makes good head for his new book. Sam leaves the game early with a caveat, and is now only offering up shitistics in imperial measurements. There’s a Queen of Warrington quiz, first dates over at Beers bar, and the podcast hears from its number one fan - Josh Charnley. Enjoy.

As Warrington make it to nearly halfway through their regular season, the podcast opens its patreon jubilee lounge. There’s live breaking news of the signing of a new prop, but do his poor stats negate the need for celebrations? Dennis takes to waving an aubergine aggressively, Sam’s more interested in Australian politics, and Rob sources a pub singer in an attempt to encourage the younger listener. And, Beers takes to the air - thankfully, not through Plange Airways or Ryan Atkins. Enjoy

The podcast bites into Wire’s defeat to the pie eaters with a thin crust of knowledge and a limited shitistical filling. Dennis is handcuffed to a radiator but still manages to design a new player from an anatomical clusterfuck. Sam flares up, and we ask just how long is his hose pipe? Rob sends Daryl Powell a tortilla wrap before offering up rumours aplenty. Daniel looks to the future, and Beers goes in search of culinary stars. Plus, there’s the Toby / Tony quiz Challenge Cup filler....

It’s been three games and three weeks since the last episode, but with Rob suffering from covid - though I doubt he’ll mention it - will he have the energy to look after the podcast or will it be overrun by Dennis’ Orwellian pigs? Sam blows the whistle on his best ever shitistic, ventures into pissed-up veganism, and has his knife out for a deluded Yorkshire pundit. There’s kippers for breakfast and a dead commentator over on Beers. And if the show isn’t butchered enough, there’s one last...

With so many questions, is the podcast on the brink of having Daryl Powell on to provide all the answers? A gin-less Dennis insults all of Sydney before promoting Stockholm, in his search for happiness. Sam switches from ranting to lamenting and shows an impeccable knowledge of Oscar Hammerstein II musical scores. Mrs London laps up the moonlight whilst Rob pays an astronomical 10% service charge. There are very few statistics to rinse off, and Daniel washes the players right out of his hair....

With Warrington making it three losses in a row, the podcast turns to guest host, agony aunt Claire Rayner, for the answer to waning relationships. Sam finds himself critiquing the sitcom along with the Wolves' website. Dennis' book review is Power Force, but his factorial equation comes up short by 973 points. Rob looks for wedding gifts through the WhatBevan patron following. Plus, there's a 1996 quiz, post-contact-players'-metres and Beers promotes NFT watered down accounting. Enjoy....

It’s a fortnight of mixed emotions following Warrington’s French Connections - but just how long under Joe Philbin’s current metre averages would it take for him to reach the Eiffel Tower? Daniel has the answer. Sam reminisces about 1996 and his bad taste in music, Dennis takes us on a dietary plan fit for Lepidopteras, and Rob’s 72-year-old uncle Bob London provides an alternative commentary. Plus, there’s a Magnum PI quiz that leaves a podcaster’s revision in tatters. And, it’s all froth...

It's all smiles at the Halliwell Jones as Warrington make it two wins from two. And it's not only the fans in a happy mood - are the players enjoying Daryl's coaching too? Dennis decides it's time to decorate, but loaded-up on his latest supply of sponsored Tiger gin, adopts a mob mentality. With the pressure off Sam's shitistics he delivers more interesting figures than ever before. And Rob questions whether diesel dick may have been on show on the M62. Plus, there's Daniel with his opinion...

It’s a fresh start at Warrington under new coach Daryl Powell, but why is he running with the idiom ‘putting the cart before the horse’? Yes, "What would Brian Bevan say?" returns for a fourth season. So brace yourself for over two hours of your life you'll never get back, as Dennis re-badges his section with a literary theme - but rather than running with a book synopsis decides to painstakingly read aloud in real time. Sam drops the bombshell he’s no longer a season ticket holder. Can he be...

After three excruciating years of Price and his Super League failures, the podcast searches for a solution to the ongoing Warrington shit show. Sam considers giving up watching the Wire altogether, and delivers a speech to rival Julius Caesar. Dennis enters all the hard hitting Wolves' problems into his WhatBevan super computer called the logic analytical binary information arbitrator, receiving an answer of pornographic Fitzpatrick proportions. And Rob misses most of the match due to his...
