On this week's episode...

  • (0:00) We welcome you all back to The Virtual Pub, and re-introduce you all to returning guest, Leo! Also, we ask Moody about how he's feeling at the moment in North Leicester, and find out what you guys think of the show...
  • (23:30) It's time to pick some pricks - this week, Leo talks through how he got scammed, Moody shares a story with us about a family of Brexit voters who didn't realise what they voted for (and tried to fix it by talking to the mayor of a small French town), Jason goes fishing for one of the biggest pricks in Britain, and Ben talks about America selfishly buying up all the supply of a drug that helps with COVID-19.
  • (72:56) Now for some good news - we transition smoothly from picking pricks with some new Nay Yays (good news involving pricks, or pricks that turn into good news, the middle ground). Then we share some amazing news including the positive development of a vaccine and a Morrisons security guard holding an umbrella up, so a golden retriever stays dry.
  • (93:26) BONUS - while recording, we stumbled upon some hilarious Daily Mash articles, relevant to what we've been talking about.
  • (97:20) And finally, an extra jiggy pub quiz and our final goodbyes.
