S1E27 - Illegal Migration Act
02/08/2023 Duração: 01h01minEpisode Notes This episode stems from a question from listener Toby Grier. We, (0h alright then), Kehoe, also answers the seemingly logical question, "Why when you are charged for murder, are you not also tried for attempted murder" posed by listener Gary Dugdale. If you have a question for us then send it in and we will answer it in upcoming episodes. We can be contacted on barelylegalcomedypodcast@gmail.com You can always send questions directly to Chris via his extremely niche Only Fans/ allotment owner/birdwatcher website. For legal reasons, I can't post a link to this as it's only available on the dark web. Also, feel free to send the show loads of money via the Tip Jar so I can buy a soft top Jag or maybe even a 911.
