  • Do you remember 'Lucky Bags' or Smorgasbord
    Sep 24 2024

    Yes, the opening question remember the time when you were a youngster, you would be bought the 'Lucky Bag' treat? So-called as you didn't know what was going to be in them, what you knew was there would likely be a lot of 'stuff' usually rubbish sweets and toys.

    Welcome to this epic Old Gits/Brits Podcast, is it full of rubbish and toys, well I leave you to decide the first part and yes we are always open to being 'toyed' with. If only...........

    Well if you don't deem it a Lucky Bag, how about a smorgasbord of chatter? We cover everything, from radio presenter Zoe Ball to Shakespeare even our very own Pantomimes with a new one for this year just finished being written.

    If nothing else stand back and stare in astonishing amazement at how we managed to cram so much intelligent conversation in such a small space.

    Oh finally enjoy it.

    One more finally, maybe not too much intelligent conversation, but as a regular listener you already knew that.

  • Gen Z's zzzzzzzzzzz And for those that recall Johnnies!
    Sep 10 2024

    Those Gen z's are at it again. Don't they make you sleepy listening to them drone on and on? Well, it certainly gets 'our goat' as Chris will say. We three are fully paid-up members of the i Generation and for those that do not know the 'i' is for invisible. Yes to those wonderful Gen Z (ers) they don't even know we lot exist, as of course the world now revolves around them.

    Our little story this week stems from a promotion for a holiday home that a Gen Z (er) advertised using THEIR language which we just couldn't understand, however not to be outdone a member of the 'i' generation did the same back. Mind you we didn't understand either of them so what that makes us is anyone's guess.

    We then moved on to 'Johnnies' now you have to be a certain age, to know what these were known by members of the 'i' generation. Whereas the Gen Z (ers) know them as a Franger.

    Now even I am confused, can I suggest you listen in and find out for yourself what on earth we are talking about?

    Good luck out there.

  • Fancy a date, go to the supermarket (Not that sort of date)
    Sep 4 2024

    Historically you went to the supermarket to buy your food. Now though, you can (apparently) get a lucky charm for your arm or even a sugar daddy. Oddly enough, these words sound like food, so how about an upside-down pineapple?

    Yes if all you wanted was a pineapple and it ended upside down in your trolley or basket, you could find yourself 'bumped' as it is now the sign you are looking for a partner. Even worse or possibly better if you have chocolates alongside, that's a sign you want more than a partner you are looking for a sexual partner. Even more so if you then visit the perfume section you are ready and raring to go.

    It's all a bit too much for us Old Gits, we decided to send John to the supermarket to do a bit of research and asked him if he would buy 2 melons and a cucumber. He came back with a banana and two plums. It must be an age thing.

    Ah well enjoy the banter x
