Tune in each week to hear a new entry read by Past Dan and laugh along with Dan and Jo as they discuss what’s written and chat a whole bunch of nonsense in-between. Each episode ends with a jump forward for some advice from Future Dan to finish. Hope it makes you smile.
So once upon a lockdown, Dan Straw and Jo Henderson got very bored and decided it would be fun to make a podcast and...It was! They made a whole season worth of episodes. As lockdown continued they then made some more episodes but then, the world started to open up again and the podcast was completely forgotten about. That being said it seems a shame to not do anything with the recordings so here is a new episode from Dan and Jo, recorded back in January 2021. Hope you enjoy it and as always, thanks for listening.
