Starting point is 00:01:07 Yes. And we are warm. I'm a little too warm. Yeah, take my slippers off. We haven't presented anything for a while. I put the dogs away. Put the dogs away. The dogs on us.

Starting point is 00:01:19 We haven't presented anything for a while, but in the past, what we do is we shine the light on a project that we believe is worth your ears, your eyes and your time. And your tongue. If you want to lick a screen. Yeah. Screen lickers. And what we're presenting this week or this this time on this rare show that we do is a project we've been working on together for many months now. Yeah. It's been a couple of years in the making really.

Starting point is 00:01:46 And that is a little show called Do Go On, the quiz show. Yeah. It's like Dave said, we've been working on this and wanting to do this for ages. We've done it in collaboration with our good friends, Stupid Old Studios, who helped us put it all together and how it works is Dave is our wonderful host. It's doing what he does so well. Yeah. Hosting. He's like a host, but also like a guide. That's right. He's also a guy. He's just a guy.

Starting point is 00:02:15 Well, you know, I think of him as so much more than just a guy. Yeah. I think of him as a guy. Yeah. And he guides us on a topic, on a journey. That's right. Each episode has one topic, something from journey. That's right. Each episode has one topic, something from history that you think you know about. You've heard of it. You could maybe be able to answer a trivia question. Yeah. Give the two sentence summary. Sure. We all know what that is. But when we drill down, how much you actually know about it? That's right. And that's what we aim to find out. And by the way, we should say there's

Starting point is 00:02:41 a web series so you can watch it. Yeah. Yeah. I'd say you can only watch it. Free to watch. Oh no, you can close your eyes. Yeah, of course you can.

Starting point is 00:03:04 It was a while ago. I can't remember. Yeah, it was quite some time ago. But yeah. And the points do matter. That's where this show differs from others. That's right. There's cash on the line. That's right. There are prizes.
