The pubs are re-opening! Is it too soon? And f*ck Nazis (not in a good way)
Description
Is it too soon to re-open the pubs? And 75 years after World War Two, why are we still being hassled by Nazis? Grab a drink, as we talk about the biggest stories of the week in The Virtual Pub - the perfect podcast for those who miss going to the pub in this particular pandemic.

On this week's episode...
- (0:00 ) We welcome you all back to The Virtual Pub
- (8:00 ) The pubs are re-opening! The Virtual Pub is not so "virtual" anymore, as the Government announces pubs can re-open on Saturday 4th July. With two of us who love the pub and two who work at bars, we're in a unique position to answer one simple question - is it too soon?
- (39:00 ) It's time to pick a prick - this week, we talk about the prick who flew the "white lives matter, burnley" flag from the plane (he got sacked - good riddance), and Norman Tebbitt (who CORRECTION: wrote for The Telegraph) saying that Nazis were left wing?
- (52:13 ) Now for some good news - Chicken Run is getting a sequel and two amazingly wholesome stories that I won't ruin for you here...
- (58:23 ) And finally, the pub quiz and housekeeping.
PODCAST NEWS: Next week's episode will be the last of series 1. With a couple of us returning to work at pubs, we've got to rethink how we record the show and want to take a couple weeks reviewing & improving what we do on the show. Look forward to us returning later in July. We will announce a specific date soon.
