Recorded in early 2019 and aged in an oak MacBook previously used to produce a fine Scottish audiobook. This episode has exquisite bouquets of:

• Time passes, possibly on the way to taking four consecutive rights and coming back to where it was
• The Apple Store that used to be a Wimpy
• "There was never 'the' terminator, it was always 'a' terminator"
• The hospitalisation of Scottish Author David F Porteous
• The Cheerful Despair Discriminatory Gymnasium and Subscription Sex Prison ft. Tom Hanks
• "Nobody is gonna go to that pub"

As well as delicate hints of our favourite segments Debate Bag and a Christmas Cross Quiz written for a Christmas Special we never recorded (or did we?!? (we didn't)).

Remember, if you don't share our podcast on social media, the terrorists win. Their podcast is very popular.

Now eat an orange.

Denied their sound engineer and recording studio by an extremely rude global pandemic, David F. Porteous and David Candy bring you the subtle flavours and rich aroma of Cheerful Despair from the state-mandated comfort of their own homes. Wow!

This time on the UK's 37th best comedy podcast*:

• Neil Armstrong porks out!
• A touch of the gammons!
• David F. Porteous vs. Peppa Pig!
  • Plus:
• Inconsistent sound quality!
• Sloppy editing!

*Technically true, really quite a long time ago now.
