"The Bullsh1t" was the pilot episode of what would eventually become The Biz and Shizzle podcast.

Chris & Matty are releasing this pilot because they have taken a temporary break from their current show. Chris being about to submit his master’s dissertation and Matty's busy schedule are taking priority. This pilot, originally recorded on November 15, 2024 was "two men in search of a podcast concept".

Find out why we eventually decided to just head down to the flipping pub.

We'll be back next month for a Biz & Shizzle session and an overview of December 26th. I mean who was born on Boxing Day for Jesus sake?

It’s session 9 already and in case you were wondering it’s not a “Spooktacular” special. Even though it is Halloween there is plenty of non-related business to get through.

A slew of birthdays fall on this day, with those celebrating easily able to to form one of the greatest and weirdest super bands of all time.

The Battle of Britain came to a close on this day…spoiler alert…we won and after at least 150 times of watching High Fidelity, Chris still can’t remember the name of Jack Black’s character.

Turns out The Cure were just as forward thinking and brilliant in 1997 as they always have been and Lauryn Hill has gotten herself in a bit of hot water, not for saying random stuff on stage or turning up four hours late again, but for not telling her former band mate something quite important.

Fair enough there is a lot of spooky going on that coincide with October 31st, but it’s not our fault.

BOO!

Chris and Matty are back for their eighth session of "The Biz and Shizzle" at their local pub1. They kick off with a chat about board games after Matty discovers the Monopoly card game2.

The hosts share life updates: Matty's three-dog household is complete with the arrival of Maggie, a black lab cross who is massive, super strong, and "big bringing big labrador energy"3. Chris has started the last term of his Master's degree, focusing on podcasting4.

The duo then consults Harry for the date: September 26th.

They also read correspondence from a fan and the unofficial fan account, No Context Biz and Shizzle5.

Can you guess:

• Which late '90s British film director’s debut used the same James Brown songs as Spike Lee's
• What unusual request a famous rock band made regarding backstage celery?

Plus, they celebrate birthdays for influential figures including: T.S. Eliot, George Gershwin, and Serena Williams.

They also remember the passing of Bessie Smith and Paul Newman.

The hosts discuss a major historical event tied to the date: the shift in wind that allowed William the Duke of Normandy to sail to England in 1066.

Chris gives a high recommendation for Spike Lee's Highest to Lowest, calling it "out the park stuff," and the TV show Only Murders in the Building.

They note that The Beatles officially received their MBEs on this day in 1965 & their final studio recording Abbey Road, was released in 1969.

It's the date that Prince began his protest against Warner Bros. by appearing with the word "Slave" written on his face in 1995 and The Jackson Five hit the 10 million
