Bringing you the laughs of leaving work on Friday and heading straight to the pub in podcast form - welcome to The Virtual Pub.

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

We want to lend our voice to #WeMakeEvents on their Global Action Day.

Live events are a huge part of all of our lives - we want to be able to keep being a part of them when the Covid crisis is over!!!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

All this prick was asked to do was politely follow the 1 way system within the store. You should be fucking ashamed! I feel so angry that staff had to clean up that mess just because you can’t follow fucking directions to stop this virus spreading.

I hate you, you prick

Customers being pricks isn’t new it happens numerous times a day as staff are subjected to both verbal & physical abuse whilst just trying to do their jobs, but you can always rely on one prick to out do themselves! This person is also a massive cunt.

A shopper smashes up a supermarket, leaving staff terrified, after being asked to follow Covid-19 precautions.

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

As some may know I work in a supermarket. During lockdown I had to shield & so wasn’t there when colleagues were subjected to absolute awful abuse by customers as covid safe measures were implemented. one way systems & social distancing round the store caused customers to rage.

@WolfSaullVerker Why don’t you check out our podcast when you’ve got a spare hour not at your normal working class boozer https://t.co/vA6xvQMdso I mean we all have jobs so we’re all working class or is that not what you meant? 🤔

So in this weeks episode of who the fuck asked you! Jim Davidson has once again reared his ugly fucking head & shared his racist views on Diversity’s BLM themed dance, this after 22k sent complaints to ofcom! With no-one wanting to give him a platform he’s posting his on YouTube!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

How dare 22,000 people complain about a dance group of mostly black members being given the opportunity to share how they feel about police brutality & race relations after the events of this year.

And those complaining about Tesco’s new ad, I see you, you racist pricks.

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

I won’t mince my words, Jim Davidson you’re a massive Racist. You’ve been irrelevant for the last 15 years & have been cancelling tours over poor ticket sales for the last decade. Those defending you are a joke, how dare you suggest Diversity should do a dance about muggers!

But only £400 million of that sum is new investment & only half of that from Branson himself!

This from a man who is currently worth around £3.3 Billion! He hasn’t done nearly enough and instead is full of false promises and platitudes!

What a bunch of pricks! - Leo -

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

A week is a long time in the world of pricks, I’ve deliberated on tonight’s pick to make sure it was based on fact not emotion, but it’s still true this individual and the company he founded haven’t done enough.

Sir Richard Branson and the Virgin Group are a bunch of pricks.

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

Since the start of the pandemic Virgin Atlantic has cut its workforce by nearly 50% adding another 1,150 this week to the 3,500 jobs earlier this year.

As part of a cost cutting measure The airline has reached a rescue package deal of 1.2 Billion with itself & private investors.

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

@Divodiva19 Indeed they do!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

So as we get comfy in our new fortnightly schedule - which still gives you time to catch up on Fridays episode - it’s time for some good news! What? Don’t look at me like that, being angry all the time is very draining & I don’t want you to think I’m a curmudgeon!! So indulge me!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

A list of other employee benefits can be found on their website & it speaks volumes about the company putting the health and well-being of their employees foremost and treating them like actual human beings and not just cogs in the capitalist wheel.

Today is my day off & whilst scrolling through Twitter I saw this & thought that it was fantastic & indicative of other good things I’ve heard about Timpsons in the past, especially their offer of a free suit dry clean to anyone who is homeless that has an upcoming job interview!

[James Timpson @JamesTCobbler]

If you find our shops a bit short staffed this week, I’m sorry. We have a colleague benefit where you get an extra day off when your kids have their first day at school, so a number of colleagues are doing a very special job away from their shops!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

Our brand spanking new episode of #virtualpubpc is here!

Have a listen and let us know what you think to the #podcast 🍻

Honourable #pickaprick mentions, Julia Hartley Brewer who fanned a flame amongst her right wing followers about Avanti West Coast giving one of their trains a Pride livery & Right Wing media fake news stories on Land of Hope and Glory and Rule Britannia ‘outrage’ - Leo -

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

1st the casual staff have gone & now more theatres are discussing redundancies with their more establish staff or going out of business all together!

But no Lord Lloyd Webber keep saying your doing your bit to ‘prove theatres can re-open safely’ You two are utter pricks! - Leo -

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

Good news! We’ve recorded! Bad news! No pick a prick for me on this weeks show. Good news! I’m about to have a rant.

This weeks pricks are Cameron Mackintosh & Lord Lloyd Webber with a combined wealth $2 Billion! One has decided his only choice is to make 800+ people redundant!

[TheVirtualPubPodcast @virtualpubpc]

One has swanned into the news, to take part in an experimental vaccine program then has fucked off again!

Do you know how much they could help the theatres in this country whilst making little or no dent to their personal wealth? Can you tell I’m very angry about this?
