Folge vom 04.10.2021Andrew Cotter - The Dog and The Mountain“The ever regular Robin Allender takes aim. If he is to sink this pint in one swift sip then surely he is to be crowned ‘Pintsman of the Century’ here at The Moon Under Water. The playing conditions could not be more perfect, with a mist of desire blanketing proceedings. He grasps the glass, lifts it up to his mouth… And yes, he finishes it in one go! The Crowds of Ascension go wild, and Robin is hoisted high into the air by time the arms of time itself”. Now, when you read that in your head, whose voice narrated it? Because we can be quite sure that many of you heard the voice of this week’s guest. It’s sport broadcaster, commentator and author Andrew Cotter.Andrew has been commentating on sport for over 20 years, and has one of the most recognisable voices around. He’s lent his dulcet tones to coverage of the Olympics, Six Nations, Wimbledon and The Ryder Cup amongst other sporting events. He’s also the man who brought Olive and Mabel - two lovable labradors - to the public’s attention during lockdown, and has gone on to write two books about their adventures. Very soon his ‘Pub of the Mind’ will take shape in front of your very ears, so settle down and follow us into the further realm.Want to hear an extended version of this episode, gain access to our bonus podcast ‘Behind The Cellar Door’ and support the upkeep of the pub?

Folge vom 27.09.2021David "Bumble" Lloyd - The Stanley (The Pub That Wouldn't Die)It’s hard to play cricket in the further realm. Not only is it impossible to see the ball through the mist, it’s also extremely difficult to organise a cricket match between the Landlord, Robin and a guest (especially when John always insists on batting). However, watching cricket at The Moon Under Water is definitely possible, and this week’s guest is EXACTLY the kind of person you’d want to join you to watch a test match. It’s cricket commentator David Lloyd; or as he’s otherwise known… Bumble!Bumble is a serial Pintsman, and has been lucky enough to experience pubs in places as far and wide as Barbados and Burscough. And despite his nickname he certainly isn’t one to bumble his way through an anecdote, something that anyone who has listened to his cricket commentary will understand. We can’t wait to hear what his dream pub will sound like.

Folge vom 20.09.2021Clint Boon - Ye Olde Cow's HeadWhen you think of Manchester what springs to mind? Hilda Ogden? The Arndale Centre? Be-parka'd men singing whilst holding tambourines? Yes, all of those are quite likely; but if you ask us, there’s only one thing that comes to mind when we think of that hallowed city. It’s a man, a myth, a human vibe… and he just so happens to be walking towards The Moon Under Water. It’s DJ, musician and radio presenter Clint Boon!Clint was a founding member of Inspiral Carpets, and has gone on to become one of Manchester’s most beloved adopted sons (he was actually born in Oldham). His DJ sets have become legendary, and he is followed by the self-proclaimed Boon Army wherever he goes. But one thing that you may not know is that he is a pub expert, and has probably experienced every kind of alehouse the world has to offer. We can already tell that when walking into his dream pub nobody will know how it feels to be lonely.There are still tickets on sale for The Moon Under Water Live. There is ONE more date, on 26th September, when we'll be inviting a special guest to create their dream pub LIVE from a real pub (The George IV in Chiswick). Head over to moonunderpod.com for more info and to grab your tickets. The mystical realm awaits! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Folge vom 13.09.2021Huw Stephens - The Fountain of All Knowledge‘Hiraeth’ is a word that’s quite difficult to translate from Welsh into English. Essentially it’s a deep longing for something, especially one's home; but it’s so much more than that. For Landlord John, who resides in The Moon Under Water, it’s something he feels any time he leaves his ‘Pub of the Mind’ to return to the Earthly realm. Thankfully his feelings of hiraeth are about to be expunged as the doors of The Moon Under Water are being flung open once more to welcome this week’s guest. It’s radio presenter Huw Stephens!Huw grew up in Cardiff which, as well as being one of the all time great pub cities, is somewhere that Landlord John and the regular Robin frequented for a session in their earlier years. He’s also one of the big players on the UK music scene - if there’s a venue that Huw hasn’t been to then it’s not worth knowing about. But what would his dream pub look like? Will it have live music? Will it have a carpet? We just don’t know… yet!There are still tickets on sale for The Moon Under Water Live. There are two more dates in September, when we'll be inviting special guests to create their dream pub LIVE from a real pub (The George IV in Chiswick).
