Countdown #496

... FIVE ...

The more things change, the more they stay the same. And so it is with The Countdown podcast.

After 496 attempts to countdown topics in order of awesomeness so you don't have to, Paul and Wayne are once again arguing about a loose brief. Of course, Wayne is the one contorting reality to fit into his very, very "flexible" list, and as always, it's Paul (and by extension, The Soundboard) taking umbrage, making for a classic episode of the show with much bad language and inappropriate humour.

Oh, and they talk about some great TV shows that have aired since the podcast began back in March 2015.

Enjoy hearing what those are amid much foul mouthed banter, as The Countdown nears its end ...
