Elis James and John Robins

Show Notes

The UK’s stagnant economy is about to have a huge injection of growth, because Elis has got a big idea and a big observation. Strap in and let’s make millions.

Whilst becoming billionaires is in the air, you know what are also in the air? Questions. Questions such as would you rather be a long boy or a boxy boy or a baggy boy? Is Christ going to be on Jools Holland? And do you have to ask what John’s mood is before you offer him a nice thing?

We also discover the most expensive substance on earth by weight.

Have you got something more precious per gram? Well let us know via [email protected].

More from Elis James and John Robins

Oct 20, 2026

Elis has written the most criminally boring novel of all time, totally by accident. Now that’s a skill, and resident money man Johnny JR has spotted a gap in the market and a chance at the big bucks.

Oct 16, 2026

Elis and John lead with the question “what are the biggest non-nuclear manmade explosions in history?” On later reflection this wasn’t something which would have worked in the compressed audio world of commercial radio.

Oct 13, 2026

It’s been a week of celebration at E&J towers; Elis has been 12th birthday partying with his daughter (and turned into a master chocolate pourer in the process) and Dave is about to/has just had his big day whilst walking around Harrogate with a bunch of lads. Different ages, different needs.

Oct 9, 2026

It’s a remote affair today and there are camera issues from the off. Elis looks like a billionaire, whilst John (your pixelated man on the street) and Dave look like they’re on a Zoom quiz in lockdown.

Oct 6, 2026

We’re creating water cooler moments here on Elis and John. From 'how many t-shirts do you own', to 'is there a God', via the state of play in the treehouse scene. Not sure how or why we got here, but there’s no doubt about it; we’re shaping the nation’s conversations. Move over Traitors, Elis and John are in town.
