We conclude our visit to 1995's Alan Xmas special Knowing Me Knowing Yule with a 100 cracker pull, Fanny Thomas innuendo watch, a mystery bird, a healthy dose of Hucknall and a look into former golfer Gordon Herron's head (No - that's private).

Episode 37 // Knowing Me Knowing Yule: Part 1 (LIVE)
Part one of our LIVE festive lookback at Knowing Me Knowing Yule sees us talking choir shame, Noel's House Party hell and Norwich stag dos - all in front of a live audience at London's Prince Charles Cinema. Part 2 (also available now) continues the chat! Contact us: thepartridgepod@gmail.com / Twitter: @thepartridgepod / Instagram: @monkeytennispod / Facebook.com/mthepartridgepod
Episode 36 // Mid Morning Matters S1E1: Broth & Muppet LIVE
This week we make our first foray into Mid Morning Matters, in front of an intimate live audience at Warner Music HQ; as part of their comedy events series. Sadly Adam didn't make it past Chiswick Roundabout for this recording, so you're left in the capable hands of Tom, Tom and Nick.
We try to answer the big questions - but don't necessarily succeed - including: why was Anthea Turner the most hated woman in Britain? Is Bill Oddie actually okay? Is radio beamed down from space? And, most disturbingly, which muppets are we going to kill? This is great banter. It really is.

Episode 35 // I, Partridge: Chapters 31-34
We get legally worried in this absolute groin-wrecker of an episode (and we're not talking about Wally Banter's Junk Box) as we discuss motivational course/panto Forward Solutions, Mid Morning Matters(only the show that Daily Daytime Debate could've been) and he link betwixt Alan, Oasis, and milk. Plus: How to hide redundancies, Sidekick Simon's forced alcoholism, Alan's '2% effect' and our final thoughts on I, Partridge. // Get in touch: thepartridgepod@gmail.com / Twitter: @thepartridgepod / Facebook.com/thepartridgepod / Instagram: @monkeytennispod
Episode 34 // I, Partridge: Chapters 26-30

Episode 33 // I, Partridge: Chapters 22-25
Alan’s freelance years go under the microscope this week as we take on his never-made cop show Swallow, barely-watched game show Skirmish and sadly-made corporate videos. Plus: His almost-manager Pete Gabbitas, forgotten safewords, missing chapters and newfound bigness. You can come and listen ANYTIME you like. This episode is dedicated to the memory of Stacey Morgan, 7. // Last chance for live tickets: postpoppodcasts.com/monkeytennislive // Get in touch: thepartridgepod@gmail.com, Twitter: @thepartridgepod, Facebook.com/thepartridgepod, Instagram: @monkeytennispod
Episode 32 // I, Partridge: Chapters 17-21
Nipple inconsistencies and humane monkey destruction collide this week as we look at the infamous Tony Hayers meeting from Alan’s point of view. We also touch on diary violations, Alan’s unheard show pitch, ‘weird rooms’ and Tom Stabb’s French adventure. Not for you? Tits to all that - I’m sure we can sort something out. // Come to our live recording next month: postpoppodcasts.com/monkeytennislive // Get in touch: thepartridgepod@gmail.com / Twitter: @thepartridgepod / Facebook.com/thepartridgepod / Instagram: @monkeytennispod
Episode 31 // I, Partridge: Chapters 13-16
It all begins to crumble in this episode, as KMKY goes down the pan, Forbes MacAllister goes to the grave, and Alan's wife goes to the gym (for more than cardio).

Episode 30 // I, Partridge: Chapters 9-12
It's our sexiest episode yet as we cover debauched Tokyo nights, sex scandals and erotic fan fiction - until we spoil it by tackling cheeses, nasality and petrol stations. Also: Gunnell! Winton! Lynham! Akabusi! Touch the Truck, Nando's sauces, whether Alan is the devil and Peartree Productions: Origins. That's millions!

We chat teabags, desk audits and only children as we survey Alan's move into 'success' (hospital radio > Radio 4) and 'love' (Carol). Plus: A game of 'Partridge Amongst the Pixels' originally broadcast live on Facebook. Is kicking a pig 'in self defence' the worst thing Alan's ever done? Is asking for 'loads of salary' a good interview technique?

We’ve bounced back and we’re ready to take a look over the best of your emails, tweets and Facebook messages from the last few months. This sees us tackling some seriously large questions:
What would Alan's wrestling finisher move be?

What will the new Alan show in 2018 be like?
Along the way we also clarify our Clives (was it Anderson? Was it James?), reveal how you can now play Cards Against Alanity at your leisure, and launch our new Alan location mapping initiative: A Partridge Over Britain.
