Rich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameRich and George: The '68 Comeback SpecialIt's apparently a common practice for corpses in morgues to have certain tendons cut, this prevents them from contracting and pulling the corpse into an upright position. Corpses also have been known throughout history to groan as the decomposition gases escape the body through the voice box.
This is the best description of this latest episode, our long since dead podcast has sat bolt upright as the gaseous fumes and bile escapes our bodies in one final hurrah. The recording quality has improved and we're two years older and wiser, but that's about it.2016-02-1019 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe9 Ep06 - TattoosTattoos last for ever, judging by this drunken ramble, we might not.2013-12-2816 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe Ep09 - Tribal StupidityIn everyday life we pander to the lowest common denominator. they drag us down to their level. If a major broadcaster had the option of televising extended coverage of 'Britain's Got Talent' or Series 1-4 of the West Wing, Simon Cowell's shitfest would win every time.
It's time to redress the balance. Although admittedly listening to this very pissed episode is not the best place to start.2013-12-1115 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe9 Ep04 - George's PubesIf ever a podcast need no description........2013-12-0415 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe9 Ep03 - M&M WorldThe dangers of what can happen when large chocolate making corporations decide to become heroes to the masses of pig shit thick idiots that roam our planet. You know the ones, the stupid idiots regularly caught giggling at internet based captioned photos of cats. The people stood on street corners loudly discussing the intricacies of the current series of X Factor and looking forward to the next episode of 'celebs' 'roughing' it in the jungle. The sort of people who 'make a stand against cancer' not by donating bone marrow or money to cancer support charities, no, they post a...2013-11-2715 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe9 Ep02 - Urinal Law and Pissing StoriesI'm sure everyone has pissing stories, it's just we're the only ones willing to share. Maybe Rich shouldn't have.2013-11-2017 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe9 Ep01 - FireworksWelcome to the MUCH AWAITED first episode of Series 9. You have been excited as so have we, however I have to admit, we started Series 9 pissed and just got worse as the episodes go on. Still, we're here now so you may as well have a darn good listen.2013-11-1318 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 8.5 - The Entire 15 Minute Demi-SeriesThe Hiatus is taking it's own 1 week/ 15 minutes Hiatus. We are back for a one-off special. Recorded live at a mate's wedding, this is a little treat for both our fans.
Topics include, weddings, stag strip clubs, broadswords, and teen street patois. Rich also gets 'aggressive aggressive' about 'passive aggressive'. Let us know what you think, but lets face it, 'probs blates be rubs'. Tweet us with either the hashtag #TweakTweets or Rich's new idea #TwatGeorge.2013-09-2517 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 7 Ep9 - Bavarian AdventuresHello all, we think the podcast has been getting a little lax since we started doing them on Skype. It was the only way to keep them going due to logistical issues finding time to meet up, especially now Rich has more of a social life.
Recording the podcasts live and in the same room has more energy, more 'je ne sais quoi', more laughs, for you and for us. So it would be better to record them in batches like we used to and release them when we have them rather than slavishly record lesser quality podcasts in order...2013-07-2411 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 7 Ep8 - George's French MishapsSo we missed last Wednesday, bringing the podcast out on Friday from a campsite's poor wifi connection. Well this week to make up for it, despite the French travel nightmares detailed in the podcast this was recorded in a shitty french hotel car park and put up on the interwebs earlier than normal. Zut alors!2013-07-1721 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 7 Ep7 - Tour de FranceWell finally we missed a Wednesday, but not a week. Due to a broken clutch on a campsite in France with limited Internet connection and the issues of facing a 1000Euro bill, I'll admit, my standards slipped. Sorry. Nevertheless here is a recording of Rich talking to a very optimistic, excited George.2013-07-1222 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 7 Ep6 - Sharing Your RunsHad a good run? Good, keep it to yourself next time. Playing a game on Facebook? Good, keep it to yourself next time. Bringing out a pointless podcast?

Does he (and we're assuming it's going to be a 'he') get to sleep with whoever he wants? Will he get chosen in a reality TV style format? It's all in here, including whether Morrissey would be happier if he wasn't celibate.2013-03-1320 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 6 Ep3 - Twats at WorkHello there, as a thank you to our loyal listeners for getting us to 10,000 downloads, we invited 200 of our most loyal and favourite fans to a special live recording.

Just tell your boss that you're on LinkedIn, that seems acceptable. LinkedIn is very unpopular on this podcast though. If you love LinkedIn, probably best not listen.2013-02-2723 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 6 Ep1 - Series PremiereWowzers! How the bloody hell did we get to our 6th series?

No wonder Smashy and Nicey didn't want to talk about it.2013-02-0617 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep10 - Old Fuckers and TechnologyNone of them will hear this, so we're not causing any offence at all. Old people fear technology the same as they fear hoodies hanging around your local newsagents after dark. If any old people do hear this, please tweet us on @richandgeorge15 or send a telegram.2013-01-3024 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep9 - Inappropriate Facebook LikesFacebook was designed for the very few people selected to go to Harvard. If you are not as clever as one of those elite few (I'm not for a minute suggesting I am) then you have no right to an account. Facebook gets ruined by stupidity, the sort of stupidity demonstrated on an hourly basis by people in your news feed.
Maybe you get drawn into arguments with people you've never met, maybe you agree to donate a 'Like' to someone daft enough to base their decision on whether they bring their offspring into the world on the basis that...2013-01-2321 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep 8 - George's Bad IdeaSometimes you just need to do what you are told, sometimes you need to avoid problems by keeping schtum. It's difficult when you have your own podcast though. Cheers folks, don't forget to help George by sending your answer at the end.2013-01-1617 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep 7 - Being OldOld age, 'It happens to the best of us', which is a strange comment given that it flies in the face of it's equally famous age related comment, 'Only the good die young'. Seeing as Freddie Mercury & Queen wrote a song about the 'good dying young' then we must surely agree with that. (Unless Freddie was simply trying to pre-empt obituary writers into deciding whether he had 'good AIDS' or 'bad AIDS).
Anyone out there who cannot remember Freddie Mercury or football before Ryan Giggs probably doesn't need to listen to this, unless you want a warning about what old...2013-01-0916 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep6 - New Car Park RulesIncase you hadn't heard, the rules for car parks have changed in 2013, with pretty drastic consequences for those who don't adhere to them. Quick, listen to this podcast and make sure you don't miss out!2013-01-0218 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep5 - Your QuestionsSo here we are, Boxing Day, tomorrow marks the 1 year anniversary since Rich and George sat in front of a laptop and spewed their thoughts into a microphone. That pooled vomit of weak jokes and heavy vitriol ran down the jeans and into the shoes of the nation, capturing society's mood and reflecting it back into its face, showing it how haggard and tired it was before its inevitable collapse in on itself. We cheered up post-Olympics and now happily address all issues with only a rare delve back into the depths of misery. I'll be honest I don't even...2012-12-2623 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameXmas Special - All George Wants for ChristmasMerry Christmas to you all, here is a pressie that you can't shred.

Usual Wednesday Podacst to follow on Boxing Day.2012-12-2404 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep4 - Christmas Cards RevisitedHave you ever had a nice gesture thrown back in your face, some people did in the making of this episode. Are we proud? No, but action had to be taken. Welcome to Christmas Cards II: This Time It's Personal (and pretty close to home!)
Next time we see you will be on Boxing Day, but subscribers can download the Christmas special gift video which will be available on Christmas Eve. Season's greetings folks! p.s. This is our 52nd episode, that's a full year! Thanks for sticking with us!2012-12-1915 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep3 - Test For RichThere comes a time in the life of every braggard when he gets his come uppance. This week George attempts to test Rich on what he's boasted about before, but not until we answer some questions sent through by one of our listeners. Enjoy.2012-12-1218 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep2 - 50th AnniversaryWell 50 years ago this week, people were still watching the first ever Bond film (They used to take ages going round the country in those days), talking about the new group called the Rolling Stones and arguing over whether they would last longer than the also new Beatles.
It was an exciting time of cultural innovation that saw the beginnings of a British global pop culture invasion. What many people don't realise is that also 50 years ago this week, Rich and George went to Bletchley park to record and release their first podcast. A computer the size of a house...2012-12-0519 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 5 Ep1 - AdvertsWelcome to the first Episode of Series 5! We've kept you guessing for 7 days about how the cliffhangers from last week would pan out. Who shot George? Was Rich pregnant by George's hand or someone elses? Did Heston Blumenthal really manage to convince Channel 4 to let him make a TV show in which he gets away with making the most basic of foodstuffs under the pretence that he makes enormous portions? All will be revealed, just click play on your mp3 software of choice and find out! This week we also discuss the sexual urges of Tom Hanks and discuss ideas...2012-11-2822 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep12 - Name CallingSo series 4 comes to an end with a bout of name calling. Tossers! What did you think of the John Terry racism scandal? Join the debate by tweeting us @richandgeorge15. Or you can email your complaints to info@richandgeorge.com2012-11-2117 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep11 - Early AdoptersEarly adopters are good and bad for society. On the one hand they keep prices of new technology unrealistically high by being willing to stand in a long queue to pay over the odds for a new phone or computer that in 6 months will cost half the amount. On the other hand they provide us with huge opportunities to laugh, who can forget the HD DVD debacle, where a bunch of early adopters bought their expensive new DVD players only to have them discontinued in favour of Blu-ray. The same people have spent twice as much money on Plasma screens...2012-11-1419 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep10 - Kate Middleton - Thanks for the mammariesThis summer saw the paparazzi take plenty of pictures of two reasons why the Great British Public can be rightly proud.... the London Olympics and the Queen's 60th Jubilee. In this episode we discuss the pros and cons of having a princess who bares all to sell magazines in France.2012-11-0719 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameRich and George Halloween SpecialSomething weird is afoot at Rich and George Towers.2012-10-3102 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep9 - Penis SizePeople have criticised us for not keeping the podcast to 15 minutes and for going over the prescribed length. We decided that length wasn't important, rather what we did with it. So here we go, the most revealing, outrageous podcast we have done, complete with audible full frontal nudity and links to the internet where you can (should you choose) watch the video in full.2012-10-2415 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep8 - Real SportsIn 2011 we began podcasting with the promise that it would just be two men getting pissed, talking to a microphone. This week's podcast is probably the most pissed yet. We discuss what is a real sport, and whether George's 'TriBall' could ever get off the ground. This week also marks the last in a series of 3 episodes created from audience suggestions. Get your ideas through to info@richandgeorge.com
Enjoy.2012-10-1721 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep7 - Gay PrideLike a new brand of flour, Gay Pride is something that is common place these days, but it wasn't always so. Rich and George look at the world of homosexuality, 1 in 5 downloaders will get the full unedited version where we actually try it for ourselves. Good luck!2012-10-1018 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep6 - Sexual EqualityMen are from Mars, Women are from Venus. This of course is nonsense, I can't imagine how two totally homosexual societies would be able to evolve and develop in isolation on separate planets to the point where they could invent space travel and traverse the solar system searching for sexually compatible partners. Maybe if they were reptiles, the females might be able to reproduce asexually, although I remain unconvinced that this would result in primates with opposable thumbs capable of inventing spaceflight. The male population on Mars, I am afraid would not last long, managing only 1 generation of life before...2012-10-0319 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep5 - Weight LossYou've tried the Atkins diet, you've seen your weight yo-yo over years of effort, stop trying! Listen to this podcast which in 17 minutes gives a detailed, focussed crash course in successful permanent weight loss..... once we get around to it.2012-09-2617 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep4 - Animals V HumansFor millions of years man has tried distancing himself from the animal kingdom, this has been done through subjugation, domestication, the development of religion and concept of a 'soul'. Today though, man and beast are returned to the same fold as equals, as competitors, as rivals. This week's episode examines what would happen if Michael Phelps swam a race against a dolphin, many thanks to Gareth Love for the suggestion.2012-09-1916 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep3 - Higgs Boson'Things Can Only Get Better' sang Prof. Brian Cox when he was in D:Ream, and he was correct. Back then in the pre-Higgs Boson days, we used to all wander about, struggling to comprehend what it was that gave us all matter. Then in 2012, CERN discovered the Higgs Boson and it all changed for the better. With this in mind, please enjoy our latest episode in which Rich highlights just how much he hates Bob Monkhouse.2012-09-1217 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep 2 - Kids TVKids TV has been around almost as long as TV itself, no I'm not talking about Channel 4's 1983 controversial hit 'Kiddie Stare', I'm talking about shows for kids. From kids TV when we were watching it, to kids TV today, our show ensures it all gets consumed, chewed up, spat out and left to lie there like a heavily masticated piece of gristle from a cheap steak and kidney pie.2012-09-0617 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeries 4 Ep1 - Jumping the SharkWhen an idea has simply gone too far, it's time to 'Jump the Shark'. We may well be at that point as we skip over into Series 4 of our podcast. Who would have thought it would have lasted this long. Enjoy folks.2012-08-2916 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep12 - Class WarfareAre you an upper class toff or a lower class urchin. Did you watch the dressage or the football in the Olympics? Many people watched both, could this mark the end of the class system in the UK. In this Episode Rich and George discuss how better the class system could work.2012-08-2218 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep11 - WeddingsSome of us have had them, some are planning to have them, others want to avoid one at all costs. The vast majority of us have attended at least one in our lifetimes. In this episode we examine the ins and outs, pros and cons of weddings.2012-08-1520 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep10 - TrendsEveryone knows what trending is, right? Not not quite, in fact no-one knows, they all pretend to understand it because everyone else talks about it. If trends send you round the bend, download this podcast in which we try to explain it and fail, spectacularly.2012-08-0817 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep9 - Bit of FeedbackThis week Rich and George demonstrate how grown up they are in the face of criticism as they receive a bit of feedback. They also address the current Olympic games and also announce the launch of their OFFICIAL RICH AND GEORGE SMARTPHONE APP which you can only use if you have an Android phone, (proving iPhones must be better.)
Download the App, have a play and let us know what you think.2012-08-0116 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep8 - Princess on Board31 Episodes in and we've finally addressed one of the biggest complaints of all 3 seasons of the show so far, namely it's length. Week after week we get bitched at about the fact the 15 minutes stretch over into 18 or 19 minutes so this week its 5 seconds short. See how you like that! This week's show looks at the sort of people who drive certain cars and Rich grotesquely overestimates the value and status symbol potential of a Peugeot 306. Women with pink cars that they have given names to need not download, you wouldn't like it ladies....2012-07-2514 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep7 - Princess Diana"Goodbye England's rose, may you ever grow in our hearts, you were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart......" Sang Elton John in a moving tribute to the death of the Queen of our Hearts. This week we pay our own tribute to the life and loves of a very dear lady nearly 15 years after she died in 'that' car crash; an event that turned a swish Mercedes Benz of love and passion into a mangled wreck of national fervent, uncontrollable grief and 'bandwagon jumping' of the utmost degree.2012-07-1818 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep6 - Reality TVThe words 'Big Brother' used to be associated with a brilliant work of fiction by a brilliant writer. Now they are forever connected with one of the lowest common denominators in the genre that is 'reality' TV. It began as the biggest show terrestrial Channel 4 had ever seen, in time it became exclusive to E4 before landing like a sack of shit on Channel 5. Now it provides part of the 'Rich and George' topic for discussion showing that once you think you've hit rock bottom you can still descend further.2012-07-1118 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep5 - CarsMany people know a lot about cars, Rich is not one of those people. This week's episode highlights just how little he knows about all things vehicular (Whilst still attempting to mock George's car).
Big shout out to the US of A too for their 4th July celebrations, 'Independence Day' is one of my favourite films, (if only to see Will Smith punch an alien) and it's great to see them still mark the anniversary 16 years on.2012-07-0418 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep4 - Time TravelDespite not having an MOT or road tax, the Delorean from Back to The Future was still the greatest car ever, or so we all thought as kids. For this writer, the Back to the Future films sparked an interest in time, the concept of travelling through time and the various repercussions that would result from such an adventure. In this episode we analyse whether Doc Emmett Brown ever sexually abused Marty McFly and just how many innocent young lives were taken at their hands in tragic yet needlessly violent ways.2012-06-2718 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep3 - Football Take 2Much like real football, this episode is less about football and more about rape. We did an episode in series 2 that actually discussed football and it was a bit dull and failed to meet our already low standards, therefore it was never released. This is our second attempt.
Feel free to ignore our prediction about England not making the Quarter Finals of Euro 2012. Hey ho.2012-06-2017 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep 2 - Genital MutilationRich and George are 'method podcasters', which means they like to try things before speaking out about them. For this week's episode they both agreed to have their genitals mutilated before reporting back. Find out what they had done by listening to the most committed podcasters on the interweb.2012-06-1317 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSeason 3 Ep1 - The QueenPod Save the Queen. After 60 years the Queen has finally made it, a podcast about her by us. We discuss what sexual acts Rich would like to perform on Her Majesty and whether George thinks UK tourism would benefit from beheading the entire royal family (Except Kate of course).
We are delighted to see our Podcast reach it's 3rd Series, thank you all for sticking with us. It's a proud day.2012-06-0615 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E12 - Useful PodcastPodcasts are usually just entertainment, this week sees us introducing a new concept, a podcast that is useful.

It is very nice and we look forward to spending it soon. We hope you had a nice listen and we look forward to seeing you at Christmas.
The thank you card is a staple of western civilisation, removing the joy gained from the giving of gifts by adding an extra dimension of receiving, something which is supposed to be far less important than the act of giving. Nevertheless a combination of parents and grandparents ruin the very concept of gifts for many through the insistence on thank you cards...2012-05-2321 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E10 - Air KissesMwah Mwah, this week air kisses get the Rich and George treatment.

Anyway welcome to this week's podcast which is not THE OFFICIAL PODCAST OF THE LONDON 2012 OLYMPICS. We are very respectful of all branding guidelines which prevent us from mentioning the LONDON 2012 GAMES. Also we stand strongly against anyone who thinks that SEB COE IS A MASSIVE MONKEY FELCHER as we love him for the sporting and political legend that he is.2012-04-2516 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E05 - Stealing Music"Fifteen men on the dead man's chest, yo ho hum and a bottle of Rum". This week Rich and George offer you their content completely free of charge (as per usual) in order to take some sort of moral high ground in the war on Music Piracy. Arrrrrrrrrrr!2012-04-1717 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E04 - Phone Based HatredThe battle lines have been drawn, the nation has been divided, families have been split and close relationships ended. The day will come when the differing parties come together on no man's land to battle to the death to decide the winner. Then, and only then, in the Mad Max-esque post apocalyptic environment left for future generations to endure will there be one winner. iPhone, Android, Blackberry or ....er... Windows (pfft).
If you are not a phone geek, don't worry, we couldn't debate technical specs if we wanted to.2012-04-1116 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E03 - Theme ParksEver been to a theme park? Ever worked at a theme park? Every driven past or simply heard of a theme park? Then you HAVE to listen to this. This episode sees the introduction of a new potentially regular feature called 'George Sheds Some Light' don't forget to send your questions to us if you want this to continue.2012-04-0417 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSE1 E02 - Social MediaDo you enjoy Facebook, Twitter, myspace (seriously?), or even the one that started it all, Friends Reunited?
Rich and George mercilessly attack unfortunate vulnerable people who use social media as their last attempt for friendship and salvation, mostly because the vast majority of attention seekers steal their thunder and drown them out.
Our advice? If you are a pathetic, show-off, attention seeking wannabe, start your own podcast, like we did.
Finally if you would like to appear on the podcast, send us an mp3 of yourself telling us why you listen to the show, maybe it makes you giggle, maybe...2012-03-2818 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameSe2 E01 - Like a phoenix from the flamesWell it's been a whole week since the end of Series 1, so following a 7 day whistle stop tour of Europe, the Far East and North America, we are back for our grand comeback.
This episode should ease you in nicely to the groove following our extensive break.
Welcome to Series 2!2012-03-2117 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 12 - S&M: What is 'Too Far'?This week's episode marks the end of an era. The final episode of the series, our first brave foray into the world of podcasting has come to a close.
What better way to close than to discuss how far is too far in the downright scary world of S&M.
Many thanks to everyone who has downloaded the show, special thanks to Martyn for his help providing theme tunes, jingles and stings. As a 'Special Feature' at the end of the show you get to hear both of our impersonations of the late great Sir Jimmy Saville, decide for yourself...2012-03-1417 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 11 - Christmas CardsThe problem with recording a ton of podcasts on one day in December, getting progressively drunker is that you download a rant about christmas cards at the beginning of March.
The other problem is discovering in March that for about a minute the mic briefly went a bit funny but fear not, the popping sound soon goes.
Christmas cards have long been sent by unimaginative fools, trying desperately to waste paper, in this episode Rich and George take on Moonpig and Hallmark, destroying the global christmas card industry in one fell swoop.2012-03-0716 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 10 - Euthanasia and the Pensions CrisisThe podcast blasts into double figures, and what better topic than killing off the aged. Ironically we are joined in thus episode by one if the most useful OAPs ever. Enjoy!2012-02-2918 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 9 - Pez Dispensers & Other Childhood Disappointments.Week 9, Rich and George have been putting things straight for approximately 135 minutes now. It was high time that the show included some sort of regular feature, unfortunately for many, the result was 'Desert Island Crisps'.
Later in the show, Rich joins the ranks of Boris Johnson and the Sun Newspaper by managing to alienate the whole of Merseyside, apologies to all involved.
Finally a huge thank you to everyone who has downloaded our podcast so far getting us over the 1000 download mark. Ricky Gervais must be shitting himself.2012-02-2216 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 8 - ControlEpisode 8 sees Rich and George look at the concept of control, the desire within people to control, the hatred within people to be controlled, the evil that control can cause. This is a very serious subject and one that is certainly worthy of greater scrutiny than two men getting drunk sat on sofas. Sorry, if you wanted a coherent argument you should have gone elsewhere.2012-02-1517 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 7 - Organised ReligionPraise the Lord!! Organised Religion, having been sidelined for 7 weeks, finally takes centre stage. Rich and George do more for secularism in 16 minutes (ooops) than Richard Dawkins (or even Jehovahs Witnesses) could in a lifetime.2012-02-0816 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 6 - CelebrityHello listeners, Episode 6 is here. Rich and George take 15 minutes to tackle the seemingly unstoppable force of mediocrity, sensationalism and vacuous lack of talent that is 'celebrity'. Thank you to everyone who has downloaded this to date, you have justified our ranting into a microphone. Fingers crossed we never turn into the media whores that we lambast in this episode. (Every man has his price though! We are open to offers.)2012-02-0115 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 5 - Female HaircutsRich and George cut through the hairy subject of female (cranial) topiary. The cost, the psychological damage, and what happens when you kidnap a 1980's kids TV presenters wife. It's all in there. Listen today! (Or tomorrow, podcasts are brilliant.)2012-01-2515 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 4 - RacismThis week's episode comes with a health warning. It contains language that some people will find offensive, especially if they do not understand the concept that referring to a word is not the same as using it in context.
Nevertheless if you have made it this far and heard all the
a) parental rimming
b) train related rape
c) scoutmaster paedophilia
d) Rich tapping his fag ash next to the mic,
in previous episodes without bursting into tears then you'll probably be ok.
Many thanks to Martyn and his Jingle Factory, keep up the good work!2012-01-1815 minRich and George's 15 Minutes of ShameEpisode 3 - Public TransportThis week sees the podcast get a bit 'soapboxy' as the nation's (soon to be) favourite podcasting duo take on the UK's public transport infrastructure. But we're delighted to unveil our new opening theme tune from Martyn Simmons who kindly decided to get involved. We even have another 'celebrity' endorsement.

Along the way they discover a few unexpected tangents but managed to steer the ship back on course. It's fair to say that you can all learn something from this.
