Rum Doings Episode 222: A Strange Shaped Tomato
by John Walker on Aug.12, 2016, under Rum Doings
In our 222th ever Rum Doings, our topic has been removed due to offensive language.
We discuss why Twitter should have been an open protocol, the opening of the Olympics, and then an extended argument about trampolining. We learn about the complexities of imaginary private beaches, the arrival of Olympic baseball and as you’d imagine, a dissection of Radio 4’s Loose Ends.

Pro Cricket now uses a format called Twenty20 which, all told, is usually over in around 2.5-3 hours. The shorter format means that players are usually trying to do ‘more’ in that time frame.
I also enjoy episodes where you talk about Radio 4. I often forget it’s there so I’m always keen to hear about more gems like Cabin Pressure.

John and Nick are just jealous that they’ll never make a dog pun as good as Zaltzman’s “cold and wet weaver.”

Envious, not jealous
