42. A life-changing mouse mat
It’s Christmas time. There’s no need to be afraid. It’s just NVS in its Janus mask. That’s Janus, so stop your sniggering. We look back over the year and try to find positives in a sea of bad ju-ju. Pies in space: No, not one of Rob’s less grubby fantasies, but a reality thanks to the Wigan World Pie Eating Championships. Who said British endeavour was dead? Other news includes a new skyscraper for London, 2000AD coming to a tabletop near you and a rather expensive bottle of whisky that comes embedded in a tree.

The boys look back over a tumultuous year that tipped the world off course a bit. After a rant from Jon, they decide that they’d like, a, the media to shut up a bit and, b, people to start speaking truthfully. Once that’s cleared up the world should return to its normal axis.
The last week of mince pies pits Aldi’s finest against M&S’s ultimate mince warrior.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all our listeners. Thanks for enduring our wittering in 2016. See you on the other side…
