Before you boot up this week’s edition of the Progress With Unity Podcast, I must warn you to perform a 25-point check of your home/place of work/the bus you are travelling on right now. Ensure all windows and doors are firmly closed and that no fragile glassware or small animals are in earshot, because regardless…
Pay no attention to that suspicious bulge that makes the PWU rug look a bit like Santa’s ever-growing pre-Xmas sack. It certainly is *not* the plans for an open forum we attempted to sweep from public view… that discarded paperwork is simply a year’s worth of travel receipts to Beech Hill Book Cycle. But next…
Dear reader, You are cordially invited to the recording of Progress With Unity’s first open forum, which will take place on Wednesday 15th October at the Beech Hill Book Cycle Studios at 7pm. Refreshments and witty replies will be provided, but we want you to bring the questions. Yes, after 100 episodes we have finally…
Now we’ve crashed through the big one-oh-oh, it’s time to finally come clean about the PWU Podcast. It’s all thrown together at the last minute and recorded in a poorly-lit corner of the local library on a moderately expensive battery-powered Dictaphone. It is testament to resident editor Mr Barold Worthyman that it actually sounds as…
Now before you break open the ice cream flavoured champagne, I must remind you that there is a 99% margin for error in my makeshift numbering system. But for argument’s sake, let’s call this PWU99 to avoid the embarrassment of explaining why I inexplicably missed out five unnumbered episodes in the last two-and-a-half years. In…
Oh hoh! If you thought Monday Night Football was big, prepare yourself for the meatiest episode of the Progress With Unity Podcast since Bob’s Big Beef Emporium of Mesnes Road supplied us with complimentary sausages. Kaboom! Get ready for a whole hour of heated Latics debate. Kaboom! Can you handle the nine-man frenzy? Kaboom! With…
All I need is the PWU show, blasting on the radio… well, mp3 player. Hmm, doesn’t quite have the same ring as Mike Rutherford’s original lyrics, but get Phil Collins singing and it’ll be fine. Stick it in between the 5-minute slap bass jam and wine glass chorus that takes up the record’s whole second side….
Another potentially slanderous edition of Progress With Unity welcomes the return of domestic football, covering the three most important podcast topics: sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll. Or, in this case, cock ‘n’ roll (b’gorrk). Taking a break from biscuit jokes and Holt jibes (well, kind of), the team chalks up a record number of…
After three weeks of fighting through the Central American jungle, the remaining members of the Progress With Unity Podcast, led by Major Barry ‘Dutch’ Worthington, have finally destroyed the evil lurking within. As the predatory Michael Mouse is now caught in a man-sized rat trap, those members held captive at this twisted Disneyland resort are…
Sorry to be pe-trollin’ you with that title and image caption, but I thought I’d prepare you for the manic media meltdown that is Transfer Deadline Day (always capitalised). On that basis, we have to cover it, eh? Please find attached a 14-page document outlining the skills and attributes of each Latics player as determined…
It’s OK, we’re fine. What did you expect, a second winless week to have us all negative? Heh, well you’re… correct, actually. It seems our enthusiasm has departed on a plane to Orlando, and it’s already ridden the Back To The Future Ride three times. I can think of four chaps who also wish they…
