    Jun 12 2026

    Welcome to MARMCAST!! It's Episode 47!!

    MARMCAST is exactly ONE YEAR old. Andy and Tim reflect on the highs and lows of this year, thinking back to the early days of the pod and realising that those embarrassingly ill conceived ideas....are still their embarrassingly ill conceived ideas that make up the entirety of the pod.

    Talking of which, Andy has a Jane McDonald running Strava idea, which is simplky appalling. In both execution and delivery.

    Ross joins us for a game of Goldy, with Andy treating him to some classic movie tracks, which Ross makes short work of. Endure 24 is waiting for Ross in the future! We wish him well.

    The Best Game in the Whole World (FACT) - Guess my Number, throws up another cliffhanger, the Doc drops by, with his wife having left him and there are reviews of Leamington and previews of Two Castles and Offas Dyke to go through.

    Music tonight from The Indigo Sunsets, "Sugar on your Soul".

    Welcome to MARMCAST!! It's Episode 46!!

    The boys are back!! And this time no technical hitches!!

    Fresh from York and Lisbon respectively, theboys discuss old World Cups, Coin Collections and thr joys (or not) of family based games. Andy throws himself headfirst into a huge clue based treasure hunt, whilst Tim throws a pack of cards at the wall.

    The joys of borderline spiritual running is discussed with the Strava group (please join) and literally tens of contributors tell us their tales of beauty.

    Stav (or Dave) joins us for a game of Goldy, with Andy completely misjudging the theme of James Bond around a misconception. However the sounds of a duet on delay singing "All Time High" is quite literally, and All Time High.

    The Best Game in the Whole World (FACT) - Guess my Mumber, throws up a titanic shock which sends both boys reeling.

    And joining us from Endure 24 Reading is Carolyn, Andy's little sister, who is tentside in a pop up and planning a midnight route to the thunders.

    Music tonight from Kim Hardin-Hudson, with the belter "Time".
