#509 - Cognitive Incline, Watching Swans In Watford and The World鈥檚 Rarest Goose

Elis struggles to make wealth managers laugh and John's got a new mantra for life.

鈥淐aernarfon Heritage Steam Train, why must you forsake me?鈥 Now that鈥檚 a taste of what to expect on this episode. The next step in Elis鈥檚 English language stand up return has hit the buffers as he plays a room which isn鈥檛 Europe鈥檚 best gig. Just how can he produce laughs from wealth managers when Llanfairfechan Community Centre is some of the best stuff in his arsenal?

Fear not however, because the bit about a big table in a miners鈥 institute is always ready to go in emergencies.

But it鈥檚 not all anxiety dreams, as we take a journey into the forest mind via John鈥檚 new mantra for life. There鈥檚 also one of our greatest jingles ever and a game which Elis hates, thus meaning great aural enjoyment for yourselves.
