- Welcome to Part 2 of the tenth Best Of The Socially Distant Sports Bar.
This episode features more of our favourite moments from across the Distant Pod universe, including clips and conversations from the regular podcast, Michael Owen's Movie Club and Hoffi Pod.
As we've said before, we don't really do seasons. We don't disappear for a fortnight and leave you staring at an empty podcast feed wondering whether we've all taken up paddleboarding.
We like turning up every week.
So whilst we're taking a brief break from the usual schedule, we've gone back through the archives and selected some of the moments that made us laugh most, prompted the biggest reactions from listeners, or have become enduring favourites.
If you've enjoyed revisiting these moments and want even more from the Distant Pod world, including Bonus Club episodes, Hoffi Pod, Michael Owen's Movie Club and plenty of subscriber-only content, head to:
patreon.com/distantpod
We'll be back with brand-new nonsense very soon.
Thanks for listening.

This week we've gone back through the archives and picked out some of our favourite moments from across the Distant Pod universe, including highlights from the regular podcast, Michael Owen's Movie Club and Hoffi Pod.
Unlike many podcasts, we don't really work in seasons. We don't disappear for two weeks, leave the feed empty and then return with a photo of a notebook claiming we've been developing ideas.
We like putting something out every week.
So whilst we're taking a short pause from the usual format, we've been revisiting some of the moments that made us laugh most, sparked the biggest listener reaction, or have become part of Distant Pod folklore.
Part 2 will be out on Friday.
And if you enjoy the wider Distant Pod universe — including Hoffi Pod, Michael Owen's Movie Club, Bonus Club and all the extra content — you can support the show and get access to loads more at:

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. - Welcome to Pint-Sized Distant Pod.
We’ve been back through our archive of episodes and picked out some of our favourite stories, anecdotes, and funny bits.
If you’re new to the pod, these are a perfect way to dip your toe in and then dive back into the full episodes from our early days.
This is from our very first Episode called Do We Not Like This?
We’ve gone right the way back to celebrate the life of Kevin Keegan.
Elis chose this as his first clip on the podcast.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. - Welcome to Part 2 of the ninth Best Of The Socially Distant Sports Bar.
This episode features more of our favourite moments from the regular podcast over the last two years.
As we've mentioned before, we don't really do seasons. We don't disappear for a couple of weeks and leave the feed empty while everyone wonders whether we're coming back.
We like putting something out every week.
So whilst we're taking a short break from the usual routine, we've been digging through the archives and pulling together some of the clips, stories, conversations and moments that have made us laugh most over the last couple of years.
Some of these became listener favourites. Some became running jokes. Some have taken on an almost mythical status in Distant Pod history. And some simply made the three of us laugh far more than they probably should have.
If you've listened to every episode, hopefully there are a few forgotten classics in here.
If you're newer to the podcast, think of this as another guided tour through some of the moments that have helped shape the show.
And if you're thinking, "Hang on, isn't this just a Best Of?" then yes. But unlike some podcasts, we haven't vanished for two weeks and left you with nothing at all.
Part 3 is available now for subscribers via Distant Pod Bonus Club on Apple Podcasts.
Thanks for listening, and we'll be back with more brand-new nonsense very soon.
