Joe & David catch up after the weekend. They discuss ring lights, lecturing in podcasting and how they would cope talking to uni students. David try's to explain about doing twitch, role playing as Brian Gittins in Grand Theft Auto and they muck about speeding up and slowing down the boring bits. They nearly forget to mention that the pod is moving to three days a week (which was the point of the ep) and honk the mole makes a surprise appearance. They talk about their artwork. Joe is reminded that he said he had farted when he was over excited about the Paul McCaffery prank. In this ep there is a surprise jingle which Joe has recorded unbeknownst to David.

David has rekindled his love for cricket and tells Joe all about his recent game at England's most picturesque cricket ground Lynton & Lynmouth in the centre of the Valley Of The Rocks. Twenty seven minutes in he still hasn't told Joe anything about the game. He tells him about getting his old kit out of the loft, how he's missed his thigh pads and being in a panic shutting the mini bus door. Joe loses interest. David shows Joe how to hold a cricket ball and announces that he can still catch.

David and Joe managed to blag some Access All Area backstage passes to the Blur Concert at Wembley Stadium. They talk about the day and play some snippets of them exploring back stage and looking out on the arena before the crowds arrive. They feel like two dorks standing on the stage with their tiny microphones. Their new pal Steve Davis is DJ'ing so they hang out in his dressing room and have a little chat with him about being one of Blur's fluffers. Steve try's to figure out why Blur asked him to support them and they conclude it's down to the Chatabix effect.  Follow Chatabix on Twitter & Instagram: twitter.com/chatabix1 www.instagram.com/chatabixpodcast/ Patreon for early access to our eps: https://www.patreon.com/chatabix Crunchy fresh tees and hoodies: https://chatabixshop.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Joe & David have recently bid on some Deal or No Deal memorabilia. The auction house have sent the box of goodies to David's house. David excitedly opens the box live on the pod but is a bit disappointed with the quality of the four red prop boxes and the grubby state of the crew clothing. They find a handwritten message from the auction house and then discover that the pencil drawing of the Deal Or No Deal is actually a photocopy. They decide it's all very underwhelming so talk about David's painting instead.
