    6: Twas the week before Christmas
    Dec 20 2024
    A rather long and rambling (no surprise there) episode recorded in the week before Christmas 2024 - Richard Negus, Callum McInerney-Riley and Richard Prideaux discuss their typical Christmas, past traditions, how taxidermied crows can help to save partridge, and which politician is currently in the bad books....

    We won't be back next week but that gives you a chance to listen to this entire episode and hopefully enjoy the festive period.
