Did you get the memo? Because Paul Foot got the memo. “Build your dream fantasy pub of the mind” Robbie said and boy has Foot delivered.

The mind is running riot in this comic’s wonderfully inventive boozer. There’s not a lager or a particular glass of red to mention, for we are taking on fantastical journey of Dahl-esque proportions. From poets to bore the clientele to Bloody Mary elements on draft spanning the bar, enjoy this one patrons.

Sometimes you just need a bit of chaos and joie de vivre in your local and that’s what you’re getting today.

You lucky lot, not only do you get one hit of beer expert Jonny Garrett this week, but here's another one! Yes, the brains behind the Craft Beer Channel sits down with the boys for a special edition of the Pub Notice Board, and he's brought some gifts with him this time.

After mentioning some mouth watering beers in the building of his dream pub, we thought it was only fair for Jonny to stump up the goods. So he joins Robbie and Dan to sample some rare bird drinks, including a beer that has its roots in the year 1883, and one of Jonny's all-time favourite beers, costing £20 a can.

Robbie and Dan also attempt to 'learn the language of beer' and Jonny explains how marketing affects our tastebuds.

Expert on the horizon! Every so often the Moon Under Water summons someone who really really knows their stuff, and today is one such occasion, for ambling into the pub today is Jonny Garrett from Craft Beer Channel.

Jonny settles in for a delightfully detailed and colourful chat with Landlord Robbie and Regular Dan to *craft* a pub jam packed with lovely beers and warmth. One for the hopologists but also a very rewarding conversation for anyone who might have even had just a sip of the odd Pilsner. It even takes us to the most northerly pub on Earth in a place where polar bears roam the ice sheets.

You can catch Jonny on YouTube, his website, and his brand new book The Meaning of Beer is out now!

All hail Dan Trelfer! It's a momentous week as Dan finally completes the 52 pub challenge, with plenty of time to spare. How did he do it; a quick solo pre-train pint? A warm beer in the lobby of a bad hotel? All is revealed within.

Elsewhere, Robbie visits the world's largest pub in the Netherlands, then stops off in Crawley to visit the worst pub it has to offer. Dan's theory of never having met a bad Alex comes under fire from a listener, and we encounter some strong correspondent work, verging on award-winning investigative journalism.

The mighty fine Portuguese / Black Country YouTuber Romell Henry is in to design his dream pub!

Known to the masses as one half of the TGFbro YouTube channel, here’s a man who’s not afraid of a ridiculous, and frequently inadvisable, challenge. So constructing and stocking his dream pub should, comparably, be a walk in the park.  

Expect an adoration of the West Midlands, and a Dudley pub he describes as his best, worst and favourite. 

There’s an important PSA regarding beef chilli patties, and is a Long Island Iced Teas criminal or just right?

Check out Rommel’s mobile podcast Vocal Pickups on YouTube. He does it out of a van!

For anything that *you* might want to add to show then send it in to [email protected] and the Landlord and his Regular will go through it on our weekly Pub Notice Board.

The landlord has donned his Santa outfit and put a wreath on the door of the Moon Under Water, for the Christmas season is finally here/Robbie has gone too early with his decorations... Whether he's out of the traps too soon is up for debate, but the prospect of Christmas pubbing on the horizon brings a warm feeling to everyone's hearts.

There's big crisp news (from a few weeks ago), a listener tells of a mystery bar in Tokyo, and the boys receive a correspondent application from the other side of the globe.

The Queen joins us to build her dream pub today. La Reine of Roasties, Die Königin of Croquettes, The Potato Queen Poppy O’Toole - aka Poppy Cooks. Poppy is one of the internet’s most recognisable and downright lovely cooks. She lives and breathes the pommes de terre, but she also lives and breathes pubs and a good time.

So settle in for the full triple cooked experience of Poppy’s dream establishment. She is possibly the guest where mid-record has become the most dreamy eyed at the prospect of owning her own pub. Watch this space.

Her journey evangelises The Purple Rain and TGI Friday’s and critiques (the slippery olive) in equal measure, and we’re sure you’ll thoroughly enjoy. Search 'Poppy Cooks' online and you'll be able to find her wonderful TikTok and Insta accounts.

And remember every week we have our Pub Notice Board where Robbie and Dan sort through the full gamut of pub stuff. If you want to contribute to those happenings then [email protected] is where to go. You can also follow us on @moonunderpod on TikTok and Instagram.

Another week, another trip for Robbie. Is he the most travelled man in Britain? Quite possibly so!

This time the landlord has been to Hungary and regales us with trips to the various ruin bars, attending the world's biggest sausage festival, and having a surprise drink with a previous Moon Under Water guest.

Also on the menu is how best to rate pubs, talk about the most haunted watering holes this fair isle has to offer, and Dan hits a milestone in his 52 pub challenge.

Have you embarked on your own pub challenge? Have you visited a haunted pub? How would you describe a dive bar? Let us know on [email protected].
