Joe’s builders have broken a light, so before recording the pod he gave them the frosty treatment when they arrived to fix it. Well, sort of - because when David questions him on the details, he doesn’t sound that convinced about how he handled it. Moving on, David then tells Joe about being embarrassed when he listened back to one of their recent episodes, explains that he’s still got a bit of a...

David’s feeling a little off today and thinks he might be getting some tummy trouble. So Joe takes the conversational lead and tells him about wanting to be liked by people, inspired by seeing his gym instructor getting a nice compliment from a customer. Then David has an idea to tell Joe about his Inspector Lindley audition, in as much detail as possible. The only problem is, Joe reckons David’s...

To kick today’s episode off, Joe’s gone down to the beach for a swim. So David joins him there on Zoom and gives us a running commentary about how Joe’s getting on in the sea. It’s a lovely way to start the show - but the two of them soon loose confidence in the idea and Joe returns home to continue the episode. Once there, he recounts a recent shameful incident to David involving his car and a ve...

First up is ‘We Did Wednesdays’, where David goes out to experience something new and then reports back on the pod about it. And to get the ball rolling, he books in a visit to Agatha Christie’s house. Then David wants to...

Joe recently went to the reunion with his office pals who he worked with in Surrey in the late 90’s, which he spoke about on the pod a few weeks ago. He had a great evening and there’s lots to tell David about - but it’s seems like David’s only really interested in how much older everyone looked and how many of them had got fatter. Then in another blast from the past, David tells David about the t...

TV Joe is back with a brand new quiz. Well, it’s actually an old one but with a lovely television twist - Names That Tune for 90’s TV theme tunes. Lovely stuff. But before they start the game, David and Joe chat about being called famous by strangers and George Clooney’s height - then have catch up with TV Joe, discuss a bit of football and get some great TV recommendations too. It’s a wonderful w...

David’s wife Naomi is going away for six days, leaving David to look after the kids and home all on his own. It’s not something he’s particularly looking forward to, especially the first night which always makes him feel very lonely indeed. So he talks that all through with Joe and then reveals that as a prank, Naomi got one of her friends to invite him to a craft fair while she’s away to make him...

It’s a return visit to Chatabix for the wonderful Rob Beckett, who first joined us on the pod way back in 2022. And this time, David and Joe have lots of new questions to ask him. Top of that list is what it was like being on Celebrity Gladiators earlier this year, where he competed against Joel Dommett. How high were the platforms, how fast was the travelator, how fun were the balls to hold and j...

In this week’s mailbag, David and Joe read a message about a friend’s old band called The Leading Edge, who played with Tears For Fear in the 80’s. This sparks off a long conversation about making music, being successful at it and some of the names that the teenage David considered for his band - pretty much at the expense of any other emails. That’s Mailbag for you! FOR ALL THINGS CHATABIX'Y FOLL...

Joe’s going to a reunion with some of his very old pals from an office he worked at in Surrey in the late 90’s. And before they all meet, one of them has sent them some photos from the time, which really takes Joe back and gets him feeling very nostalgic. Or should that be melancholic? Either way, he’s giving off a very weird energy which David definitely wants to find out more about. So settle ba...

David was on the Gin & Tonics last night watching the football with his family and now has a pretty bad hangover to deal with.

David and his wife Naomi have recently done some sneaky viewings of homes for sale just by knocking on the door and having a chat with the owners.
