Full Tuck: The Wingspan Podcast

Aidan is continuing his jolly travels around Australia for three weeks very soon. He won't have any internet access so we're recording some content for you now. We received great feedback on our Q+A episode last time so if you've got any questions you'd like to submit to us then follow the usual pathways: Instagram, facebook, comment on the spotify/apple/youtube, email fulltuckpodcast@gmail.com and we might answer it on the show!

If you're up to speed with Full Tuck then you know we're locked in a titanic struggle against one of our fans, Paul. After Paul bested us in an online Christmas bonus episode, we took revenge just before Aidan moved to Australia. Tune in today to see how we get on in the final showdown with Paul! Would you like to play a game against us as part of an episode, if so let us know why and one day it may be you showing us how it's done!If you want more then why not like and subscribe so episodes come direct to your library, and whilst you're at it take a look at our opening hand for next week and let us know how you'd play it!
