Back after their summer break, the four chaps decide whether each other’s improbable stories are a lie or the truth. Jon talks about his new car, Andy brings up his gout, and neither are at all cross about Paul and Marcus restarting the Boagworld podcast. This episode of One Footer in the Grave is appropriately sponsored by Allopurinol, the gout medication for when your big toe hurts like a b@stard.

Vote for me or the baby gets it
It’s UK General Election time and the chaps have gathered to discuss it, but without mentioning politics. What would their top policies be if they were running for office? What do they think of novelty candidates like Count Binface? Plus, why are political party websites so terrible? Andy tells his story about being in the audience for BBC Question Time and the strange tale of designing for an intergalactic space warrior.

They talk about who’s voice they’d each like as an AI companion, Apple,Apple’s new iPads and why devices are now so thin that they crack when Andy sits on them. Then, inevitably, they discuss what they think about the new Dr Who.

Votre saucisse est très plastique
The nerds of a feather are back for another episode. They talk about whether social media is now either dead or useless for promoting our work and whether old-fashioned email is replacing it. Paul explains his monthly newsletter strategy and how, for him, it’s replaced social media. Then, the boys discuss what they should do next, as they’ve (obviously) reached the pinnacle of their careers.

Roasted Chestnuts with the Dreamtime Electric Blanket
The intention was that this would be our Festive episode. We get there eventually, but only once we've finished discussing:Andy's new Dreamtime Electric Blanket, the sponsor of the showThe new Dr Who - What do think? Were they right to change Davros? Andy's shock DNA test results means he's not who he thought he was.Marcus's intense suffering at earning lots of money.Jon's Festive Sandwich Reviews Fact check footnote: Jon mistakenly pronounces 'Ncuti' as 'Chooty' rather than 'Shooty')It was Jo Grant (not Sarah Jane) that was in The Green Death, but it wasn't her first story (that was Terror of the Autons)
With one foot in the door of their retirement home for senior web designers, Paul Boag, Andy Clarke, Jon Hicks, and Marcus Lillington get together once a month to distract eachother from everyday life and work.
The show’s funny and frivolous and the chaps have a genuinely unique chemistry which will entertain you if you work on the web and even if you don’t.
