After a long-awaited hiatus since 2021, The Socially Distant Sports Bar is back on tour — and it’s bringing its unique blend of comedy, chaos, and occasionally sports to a stage near you.
Join Elis James (Elis & John, BBC Radio 5 Live), Mike Bubbins (Mammoth, BBC One), and Steff Garrero for a live version of their cult-hit podcast that’s anything but predictable. While technically a sports podcast, the trio rarely stay on topic — and that’s exactly what fans love. From bizarre tangents about optician chat-up strategies, to the Rebecca Riots, to musings on bees and their swarming habits, no topic is too obscure and no rabbit hole too deep.
Expect unfiltered laughs, unexpected diversions, and just enough actual sport to justify the name. Whether you’re a diehard Distantpod Ultra or a newcomer gifted tickets by someone with no better idea, this is your chance to catch the award-winning nonsense live and in full flow.
Come for the sport. Stay for everything else.
Venue: New Theatre
Dates: Fri 20th March 2026 – Sat 21st March 2026
