    #581 - Unofficial Bumbags, Anti-Cunning Disease and Susie Dent

    06/10/2026 | 1h
    We’re creating water cooler moments here on Elis and John. From 'how many t-shirts do you own', to 'is there a God', via the state of play in the treehouse scene. Not sure how or why we got here, but there’s no doubt about it; we’re shaping the nation’s conversations. Move over Traitors, Elis and John are in town.

    Lightboards firmly switched up, John describes feeling all the emotions whilst on holiday; overwhelm at the studio Freddie Mercury last recorded in, and fear at the hands (pincers) of a massive scorpion in his bedroom.

    All this, plus we are graced by the presence of the nation’s favourite wordswoman Susie Dent, who brings a high-stakes game with a surprising outcome.

    If you’re inspired to contribute to one of Elis’s great discussions, send your thoughts to hello@elisandjohn.com right away.

    #580 - Seething Resentment, Lance Legstrong and Director Deputy Director General

    02/10/2026 | 1h 9 mins.
    Horrific. Seething. Resentful. No, those aren’t the words which Dave is feeling towards City’s owners today. Rather it’s the state of Elis’s head right now. He’s hungover.

    Yes he’s been on a bender and is quite delicate. As he handles such a dainty state we’re left to stare down the barrel of a listener idea which gives him such anxiety he’d like to just go work on a farm. However, it could potentially win Best Sponsored Character Assassination at the British Podcast Awards.

    There’s also niche discussion on David Pannick, we hear why Elis might be bad at anagrams, and did Ryan Giggs have more caps than Ethan Ampadu?

    Make sure to tune in on Tuesday because Elis’s intro is going to be extra weak. We might even hear 5 Live Away Day Part 9.

    Our latest Adventures episode, a long awaited return to an escape room is out now HERE!

    #579 - Pad Cymru, Human Alps and A Constant Perma-Rolling Crisis

    29/09/2026 | 1h 4 mins.
    Poor old Elis. Just when he thought he’d been surprised enough this year we go and chuck another one his way. Because a famous ghost from his past is about to stroll into the studio and cause all sorts of emotions.

    But before then, a trip down memory lane with a Cymru Connectee gets his blood pumping with shame. And he explains why he’d spend his final day on earth signing up to LinkedIn.

    John’s also here, and kicks off the show with his new range of Elis and John bunkers. It’s an odd tone setter, sure, but it is current.

    Whilst we’re at it, do you want to surprise Elis with anything? Send it to hello@elisandjohn.com.

    #578 - Inbetwosses, 8 Great Whites and The Pressures of Seagull Parents

    25/09/2026 | 1h 4 mins.
    John’s having a nightmare because of a rapidly approaching admin hill AKA a holiday. He’s forgotten to count his t-shirts (but does it in his mind at the start of the show, don’t worry), and then his phone goes off mid-record. All this plus Dave’s confiscated his custard cream brownie until he starts behaving.

    Elis on the other hand is buzzing due to an impending trip to Lisbon for the return of his favourite tournament: The Nations League. And he’s had a jazz epiphany.

    The Rapid Response Unit is fired up to find out how many t-shirts our listeners own, and we discover why John only listens to Metallica on the toilet.

    As announced in the show, we’re now welcoming emails on ANY topic. So send in whatever you fancy to hello@elisandjohn.com.

    Plus, the Patreon video experience has been upgraded! Listen to the rambly Ringfence section for more (some) details.

    #577 - Laundry Zero, Final Score Yoga and Mmm Meat Toms

    22/09/2026 | 1h 18 mins.
    There’s been a quiet revolution in John’s life. In one sense everything has changed. In another sense it’s been a quiet couple of weeks. He’s within touching distance of something that no one thought possible: laundry zero.

    And continuing the clothes theme, inexplicably there’s a 15 minute debate about what a t-shirt is. We've said it before and we'll say it again: no one else is doing this.

    Elis describes his perfect yoga situation, John explains why we need failure and Dave has learned to plait.

    Get involved in the debate that’s switching up the lightboards and let us know how many t-shirts you own by emailing hello@elisandjohn.com right this instance.
