Two guest Presidents? Well why not! Joining us this week we have both Robin Ince and James Felton! Can the bingo machine, as ever soothing the way with its voice which isn’t entirely unreminiscent of Sir Stephen Fry, cope with transporting four ramblers into the great outdoors?

First stop is destination number 494: Altaic, Uralic, Hyperborean, Dravidian languages. Well could it be that the bingo machine is playing a trick as Allan is convinced they’ve wandered down that pathway once before! That certainly doesn’t stop our ramblers.

After that surely the machine will be kind to us with her next selection?

886: Not Used. Hmm…well, let’s see what they manage to do with that!

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to get the kettle on and give those legs a rest.

If nothing else it’s better than a kick up t’pants!

Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club is a free-associating conversation, involving very special guests. It drops every Friday on every podcasting outlet known to man. We’d love it if you came along for the walk. If nothing else, it’ll help you get your steps in!

We are so happy that our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than Tony’s friend and collaborator, Mike McShane! Come and join in as guest President McShane leads us on a ramble through two special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the lead of the Alsatian of ignorance!

First stop is destination number 742: Perspective. A subject you can take in many ways, and the Rambling Club do their best to explore a lot of them

After that number 416 awaits- Language. A right old ramble enshews, as does some very fruity language! Don’t say you weren’t warned!

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to relax after rather a packed show.

If nothing else it’ll keep you busy whilst the weather works out what it’s up to!

Surely any podcast would make sure if they had a star of a certain famous sci-fi show as their guest the day before a brand new series, the hosts would at least talk about it said show?

Not the Rambling Club!

Our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than television icon and Doctor Who assistant Katy Manning! Come and join in as guest President Manning leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the lead of the Alsatian of ignorance!

First stop is destination number 307: Communities. Where to start with that one? It doesn’t really matter as they’re off subject within a matter of minutes!

After that number 133 awaits- Parapsychology and Occultism. A lesson awaits here- the actress and the character are not the same. One day we’ll discuss spooky things with someone who believes in such things! However, two tales of non-existent appendicitis? Surely that’s a bit spooky? Isn’t it?

Number 791 is our final destination- public performances. And we don’t mean having a wee in the street. Off we go…

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to relax after rather a packed show.

If nothing else it’ll kill time whilst we await these tariffs!

We have a confession to make. Our guest President, taking the reins for this weeks edition of Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club us none other than the legendary Robin Askwith! Come and join us as Robin leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tightarse of the duck of bullshit.

First stop is destination number 616: Diseases. A jolly one to start with but would you believe our guest president spent almost a year in an Iron Lung as a boy? What influence did that have on his life?

After that number 910 awaits- Geography & Travel. Tales of travel and geography teachers abound along with a glimpse behind the doors of Inside Number 9! It doesn’t take too long for this to wander off course and, before you know it, Leonard Rossiter is playing Hitler in a Brecht piece!

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, the roaring fire providing welcome relief after possibly our longest ramble yet before President Askwith bids us a fond farewell.

If nothing else, it’ll keep allow you to ignore the podcast tariffs we are introducing.

Prepare yourself! Our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than Britain's number one Battleaxe, Christine Hamilton! Come and join us as guest President Hamilton takes us rambling three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to ensure it doesn’t all get out of hand!

First stop is destination number 002: The Book. This could be taken any way but the big question is, will Paul manage not to bang on about bloody Shakespeare.

Then we’re off to number 383- Postal Communication. Does our intrepid band miss the days of waiting for a letter or are they more at home with instantaneous messaging?

Finally we arrive at number 638- Insect Culture. Now one of our merry band has had quite the insect experience but did you know our lovely Tony was almost a contestant on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here? If only he hadn’t brought religion up…

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed.

If nothing else, it’s better than a kick in the pants!

A knock at the door heralds the return of an old friend. Yes, it’s the Reverend Robin Ince here to lead the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club on another wander through a special destination chosen at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the calming voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to maintain good order.

Our only stop this week is number 748: Glass. Is there really that much to say about glass? Who knows, because the ramble heads off in all manner of directions and before you know it you’re looking at the corpses on the set of Eldorado.

After what you encounter today you’ll want to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, the roaring fire awaiting us as our ramble concludes for this week. If nothing else it’ll make yer eyes water!

Hello, and here is the news. Our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than news anchor extraordinaire Simon McCoy! Come and join in as guest President McCoy runs free from his television news cell and leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tiller of the boat of incompetence.

First stop is destination number 390: Customs, Etiquette and Folklore. That’s an odd combination to start with. When it comes to etiquette you can be sure that the former Royal News Correspondent of Sky News will have a tale or two.

After that number 432 awaits- German Etymology. Nobody present can speak German ( and we don’t count Paul’s “over the level crossing”). This could be a bit tricky.

Finally we find ourselves at number 532- Specific Celestial Bodies. Simon has bought telescope. Off we go…

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, the roaring fire providing welcome relief after quite a ramble before President McCoy must be resealed in his studio.

Hello, and welcome to Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club! Come and join in as our guest President, the one and only Les Dennis, takes us gently by whatever extraneous bits he can and leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of his enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tiller of the boat of incompetence.

First stop is destination number 130: Paranormal Phenomenon. Well the only way this could go wrong would be if the guest President, despite years of working in theatre, had never experienced anything spooky at all! Fingers crossed that won’t happen!

After that we’re off to number 757- Human Figures and their Parts. This section is the reason we almost titled this episode “There’s An Arse Shot”. You can imagine what follows…

Finally we find ourselves at number 797- Aquatic and Air Sport. Stand by for a memory from our Guest President that really is truly touching.

After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, where the fire is roaring and the kettle is whistling. If nothing else, it’s something to do whilst we await the end of the world.
