I am flummoxed by this clue:

24a, 24d Hogwash in barrel, although emptied twice (4,4)

**a*, **a*

Does anyone have any pointers please?

Definition: repeated word, slang term (US?) for "hogwash".

Key wordplay is "emptied twice": take the outer letters of "barrel", followed by the outer letters of "although", and repeat.

Thank you
