Prompted by James Spooner's email, Joe says it was at a quiet train station, not near his house, at the end of the platform in the evening, a bit like Balkham. He was there with John, Harry and Michael and some of Michael's friends, about four girls, aged around 14 to 16. After they kissed, all the boys ran off.

Staying in the middle of nowhere, the host booked a one-man-band cab for his return from London. At 9.45 at the station nobody came, the number went to a Tesco mobile answer machine and other local cabs were unavailable. He was eight miles away at 10pm, about two and a half hours' walk, until the driver turned up 30 minutes later.

Returning from a festival at midnight with two young boys and a wife, the other host couldn't get into the Airbnb because an extra key had been put in the little key safe, blocking it, which he says was Naomi's idea. The only neighbour was an 85-year-old woman. He eventually worked on the safe and managed to open it.

Pen pal Raylene wrote that David once named Ian Botham as one of his heroes, and she still has his autograph from 1987, when he played in Devonport against the West Indies and England won. She has lots of autographs from both sides, now pretty grotty, and sent a photo from the album showing Beefy.

In an email sent about three years ago, Dean Walpole said that around 2006 he presented a late-night Channel 4 show, basically a remake of The Word, called Whatever, produced by Will McDonald's company with a big budget. It got five stars in Nuts and Zoo and was never heard of again: fifteen minutes of fame without the fame.

Taylor Duke wrote on 12 December 2024 that thousands of hours of listening had her adding 'very nice too' to sentences, along with 'super little bod', 'and then some', and calling people 'boy' even if they are 30 years older. Her friends started saying them too without listening. The hosts note they have done thousands more hours since.

After minutes of scrolling on a trackpad only reached December and November, one host found that in Yahoo you can search before a set date, such as the 1st of January 2025, to see 2024 emails, and so search a certain year. Trying 2021 returned no messages, so they moved on to 2022.

The hosts think they started the podcast when one of them moved to Devon, recording episode one in his living room while writing over Zoom. They guess they started around 2021, did not do mailbags for ages, and mailbags were quite a new thing, which is why they can easily go back about three years in the inbox.
