Mildly Informed – Détails, épisodes et analyse

🎙️ Mildly Informed returns with Absolute Radio’s Richie Firth and The Bugle’s Chris Skinner, once again drifting through the week’s cultural discoveries, strange internet finds and the sort of conversations that start serious and end somewhere completely different.

This episode takes an unexpectedly dark turn — before quickly becoming ridiculous again.

On the agenda this week:

📺 Northern Irish TV Noir

The lads dive into the growing wave of brilliant Northern Irish drama, including Say Nothing, Blue Lights, and Trespasses. Gritty storytelling, serious themes… and two mildly informed reviewers.

⚖️ Prison Sentences

How long is too long? And how do people actually wrap their heads around huge sentences?

🐕 Dog Treadmills

Yes, they exist. And yes, Richie and Chris have thoughts.

It’s a classic Mildly Informed episode: big topics, strange detours and plenty of enthusiastic but entirely unqualified analysis.

PLUS — over on Patreon, the tone softens dramatically as the lads discuss spring and seedlings. Gardening advice may or may not occur.

🎙️ Mildly Informed returns with Absolute Radio’s Richie Firth and The Bugle’s Chris Skinner, once again solving life’s smaller mysteries through loosely structured conversation and questionable personal anecdotes.

This week the chat wanders through dogs, seasonal food politics and one deeply questionable evening out. As ever, strong opinions are formed quickly and supported by almost no research.

In this episode:

🐕 Crufts

The world’s most prestigious dog show… and possibly the most intense dog-related event ever broadcast on television.

🍞 Hot Cross Buns

Are they an adult-only food? The lads investigate the strange cultural status of Britain’s most seasonal baked good.

🍷 A Weird Date Night

A story that starts weird and becomes increasingly uncomfortable.

🛒 Chris’ Terrible Food Shop

An all-time bad supermarket run that raises serious questions about planning, hunger and impulse purchasing.

It’s another wandering, snack-adjacent conversation packed with everyday observations, mild outrage and the usual level of highly questionable expertise.

🎙️ Welcome to Mildly Informed – the podcast that won’t secure your home, restore Victorian Christmas traditions, or finish your loft conversion… but will absolutely talk about all of them.

This week’s episode features:

📱 Pluribus – the best new TV show?

🔔 Ring Doorbells – surveillance for your postman and your soul

🎄 Dickensian Christmas – charming tradition or cold, muddy nightmare?

🏠 Richie’s Loft – now includes train sets

PLUS – on Patreon, Chris reviews his work-from-home lunches. Expect limp sandwiches, rogue leftovers and one surprisingly elite discovery.
