    London Calling: The 5 Star Podcast Hits The Big Smoke! 🚍


    This week, The 5 Star Podcast takes a bumpy ride through the streets of London as Jon and Charlie go head-to-head with a tour bus company that’s as dodgy as its website.


    Expect:

    • Jon fuming at their website design (and maybe at all tour bus websites while he’s at it).
    • Charlie’s spot-on impression of Jon’s Nan.
    • A shameless and mildly desperate attempt to snag a paid sponsorship (hint, hint).


    Join Charlie & Jon for tantrums, tea, and tourist traps as we navigate the Big Smoke like true professionals... or not.


    And remember: like, subscribe, and support the chaos—because life’s too short for bad websites and unpaid podcast hosts.


    Peace, Love & Big Red Buses,

    Team 5 Star Pod

  • 16. Christmas Special - 5 stars - "Price Gouging"
    Dec 25 2024

    This week, The 5 Star Podcast brings you their Christmas Special!

    Jon and Charlie dive into their festive antics, featuring smelly jumpers, cute antlers, and a gift exchange that's more one-sided than playing Man City (this season).


    Brace yourself as they almost master the art of a two-sided conversation. Expect musings on religion, war, and dead parents.

    While Charlie stumbles into a few new words, and Jon reflects on the deeper (and darker) moments of the season.


    And remember: The 5 Star Podcast isn't just for Christmas.


    Peace, Love & Smelly Jumpers,

    Team 5 Star Pod 🎁
