Summary

The confidence of one of the great confidence players takes a battering this week. What starts off as some light-hearted fun around the London Marathon (after Johnny JR reveals some exciting news), turns into a head-in-hands moment that curses Elis for the entirety of today’s show. How does his misstep affect his Cymru Connecting performance? Will the unassailable points gap in Made Up Games get even more unassailable? It’s all to play for. Elsewhere, John’s imagined a world that almost leaves him in tears, and there’s a TV-worthy MUG that’s more tense than this show’s compliance meeting with BBC bosses after hearing John’s supermarket docu-drama last week… To get in touch with the show, email [email protected] For lots of exclusive EJJR #content, join our Patreon at patreon.com/elisandjohn For weekly visual highlights, head to youtube.com/@elisandjohn   For everything else, head to elisandjohn.com The Elis James and John Robins Show is a Significant Production  Hosted on Acast.
