Staying Relevant

It’s Sam’s birthdayyyyy! 🥳 Naturally, we’ve gone FULL SR CHAOS. The set is decked out, there’s a homemade (questionable) cake, and mystery presents that have Sam nearly hyperventilating with excitement. We also chat Sam doing Gladiators, Pete’s trek for CoppaFeel, and we get a  bit  salty about the podcast award nominations....we think we should’ve been on that list. 📩📮 To get in...

Does Pete Exist? We’re still not sure… however we do think it’s time for another adventure. Aldi run? Lime bike? We weigh up the options for Pete’s next outing. The boys also debate who’d win in a wrestling match, Sam gets spotted  in the wild , and we learn of the one time Pete got  genuinely  angry at Sam. In Question Time, we’re chatting uni societies, where we'd take the gi...

Sam’s gone for a niche tattoo, Pete’s braved the tube ( again ), and we’ve got a BIG surprise in store for him... involving his absolute favourite thing: puppies! Plus, it’s time for Pete’s final  Love Island  update (he’s gutted, obviously). Now that he’s officially in his gym era, we reckon it might be time for a nutritionist — and luckily, Sam  might  just know the person 👀...

Pete’s feet are back in the spotlight as he whips out the bare toes once again but this time, we come prepared with official foot ratings for both Pete AND Sam. It spirals into a full on toe wars debate! We also surprise Sam with a tweet that leaves him completely speechless… and somehow ends with Pete sitting on his face. Don’t ask. Just listen. Plus, it’s question time! We dive in...

This week, it’s glow-ups galore as Sam treats  some  of the team to a little pampering (no prizes for guessing who got left out).

They boys also reveal how they have BOTH accidentally fallen for AI girlfriends and of co...

This week, Sam hit up Wimbledon – but bottled it when he had the chance to chat with  Jessica Alba . Meanwhile, Pete became an award winner…  again .

The boys also break down Sam’s ongoing glow-up (has the Botox gone too far?), and put Pete to the test with a Love I...

Still buzzing from their TRIC win, the boys are flying high - until the listener emails bring them back down to earth.
