Oh dear Scotland… and to think things started so well when a penis was seen before the tournament had even started. Today, Pete, Luke and Vish are here to sympathise with the Scottish fans, despite a pretty woeful performance of the players on the pitch. Positive Peter is still giving the Scots one more chance, however.
Elsewhere, the lads ponder how good Germany actually are and Luke and Vish honour some excellent dad behaviour from Ian Maatsen’s father.

The list of Amazon’s best books of the year so far has just been released. The list was compiled by Amazon’s editors, who collectively read thousands of books a year in order to curate best-of and other kinds of lists. This year, they chose 20 books as the best overall books, and provided lists of the best 20 books for other genres and categories, like literary fiction, romance, history, children’s, and more.
Read on for Amazon’s list of the 10 best overall best books of the year so far, as well as the overall best book.
Here’s what Amazon’s editors had to say about James:
“With the same fiery wit, snap, and energy of his previous work, Percival Everett brings to life a retelling of the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and in so doing delivers an entirely new classic, one that is rip-roaringly American, wry, and hard-hitting. A knock-out.”
— Al Woodworth, Amazon editor© Book Riot
