The Continuum Podcast

Kyle kicks things off by announcing he’s about to fight Adam, the first time the “in the left corner, in the right corner” intro has ever been relevant. This week the guys put the gloves on and swap fight stories, and it turns out one of them has a darker side than you’d expect. From school playground scraps to martial arts gyms, they ask who actually wins a fight, who should never be messed with,...

Adam and Kyle are back at the bar for round two of the drunkard stories, and this week they go looking for the darkest holes. Kyle kicks things off with a teenage house party: ten lads, an empty house and a frankly worrying amount of vodka. They ask why teenage boys drink like that (bravado, competition, and no idea what they're doing) and whether booze gives you confidence or just an excuse t...

Kyle and Adam keep digging through the history books for old-fashioned recipes, and they immediately fall out over corned beef hash. Kyle swears by it (Spam version included), while Adam is disgusted by anything that came out of a tin. From there they work through wartime cooking: the meatless Woolton pie, the eggless, butterless, milkless Warcake, and Victorian mock turtle soup, which leads to a...

Captain Adam and co-pilot Kyle take the mic for a full pre-flight briefing on how to behave at 30,000 feet. It starts with peanut allergies, and a questionable detour into whether Darwin got it wrong, before hitting the big one: reclining your seat. Adam still hasn't forgiven the woman on his Maldives honeymoon flight, and he has plenty to say about it. From there it's dress codes (pyjamas on plan...

The guys pitch their tents this week and immediately go looking for a toilet. Adam's Glastonbury long-drop trauma sets the tone before they try to pin down what actually counts as a festival. Does a one-day food fair qualify, or does it need mud, camping and three days of questionable decisions? From there it's Burning Man (cult or art project?), Woodstock's surprisingly infrequent schedule, and t...

Kyle finally drags Adam into rap music, and it kicks off with Adam performing a ChatGPT-written diss track live on the mic, immediately regretting every word. From there they spiral through the genre's greats: Tupac, Biggie, NWA, Snoop Dogg's suspiciously modest net worth, and a running debate over where rap ends and hip-hop begins. Naturally, it doesn't stay on topic. The guys argue over whether...

Adam and Kyle pick the decks back up this week, arguing over what actually makes someone a DJ. From Spotify's AI DJ and childhood loop software like Dance eJay to whether a laptop counts as an instrument, they can't agree on where sampling ends and real musicianship begins. Cue a deep dive into dance and electronic royalty. Fatboy Slim, Daft Punk, DJ Shadow, Massive Attack, Portishead and The Prod...

With the Spider‑Noir review series finally behind them, Adam and Kyle return to normal Continuum service... and immediately get distracted. What starts as a chat about Spider‑Man quickly spirals into a debate about the best Peter Parker, why Tom Holland divides opinion, childhood memories of 90s cartoons, and just how many versions of Spider‑Man now exist across the multiverse. From Tobey Maguire...

After eight weeks of detective hats, web-slinging, and Nicolas Cage weirdness, Adam and Kyle finally reach the end of Spider‑Noir . The boys break down the finale, from explosive showdowns and villainous power struggles to whether the ending actually delivered on everything the series had been building towards. Along the way, they debate loyalty, power, and why some bad guys just can't help making...

The end is in sight, and Adam and Kyle are back for the penultimate episode of their Spider‑Noir review series. As the web starts tightening around every major character, old loyalties are tested, secrets refuse to stay buried, and everyone seems to be looking for the same man. With Silvermane ramping up his campaign for control of the city, the boys dive into shifting alliances, questionable deci...

The boys are back for Episode 6 of their Spider‑Noir review series, and things take a seriously weird turn. Stepping away from some of the show's bigger storylines, this episode dives deeper into Ben Riley's past, exploring the aftermath of the experiments that changed his life and the growing mystery surrounding the people affected by them. Adam and Kyle discuss the episode's darker tone, the hor...

Adam and Kyle return for Episode 5 of their Spider‑Noir review series, and this week the mystery takes centre stage. With Spider‑Noir largely hanging up the mask for much of the episode, the focus shifts towards origins, conspiracies, and the growing network of super-powered characters lurking beneath the surface of the story. The pair dive into Ben’s unusual origin story, discussing wartime exper...

Adam and Kyle are back for the halfway point of their Spider‑Noir review series, and Episode 4 finally starts paying off some of the mystery that's been building since the beginning. With loyalties shifting, power struggles escalating, and more super-powered characters entering the picture, the world of Spider‑Noir is starting to feel a lot bigger. The pair dive into Silvermane’s growing paranoia,...

Adam and Kyle return for their third deep dive into Spider‑Noir , and for the first time, both of them seem genuinely hooked. They unpack a twist-filled episode packed with double-crosses, shifting loyalties, and plenty of detective work, as the show's web of suspects, secrets, and hidden agendas starts coming into focus. The discussion bounces between Nicolas Cage’s wonderfully over-the-top noir...

Spider‑Noir Episode 2 Review Adam and Kyle are back for round two of their Spider‑Noir deep dive, and this time, they’re sticking with it (for now). With Episode 2 picking up exactly where things left off, the duo get stuck into shifting pace, sharper visuals, and whether the show is finally finding its rhythm… or just getting easier to follow. The mystery thickens as new connections start to form...

Spider‑Noir Review Begins Adam and Kyle shake things up this week with a brand-new format, committing (somewhat nervously) to an eight‑episode run reviewing Spider‑Noir . Yep, the Continuum has officially become a review show… at least for now. Kicking things off with Episode 1, the lads dive into first impressions, from the bold visual style and the choice between black‑and‑white vs full colour v...

Adam and Kyle pick up right where the last episode left off, deep in the oddly dark (and weirdly funny) world of roadkill. From “suicidal squirrels” and pigeon daredevils to full-on pheasant horror stories involving surfboards, blood, and an unfortunate beach‑side dog incident, the lads swap tales that are equal parts tragic and ridiculous. They break down the reality of driving through wildlife h...

Adam kicks things off by confirming Kyle is, in fact, alive, though possibly stitched together Frankenstein-style, and the pair dive straight back into reanimation. What starts as classic sci‑fi quickly grounds itself in reality: early 1800s experiments with electricity jolting corpses into movement, the revelation that defibrillators are basically real-world “reanimation tools,” and the uncomfort...

Kyle opens the episode by briefly eulogising Adam… before confirming he’s very much alive. From there, the guys dive straight back into the cheery topic of death. Specifically, what actually happens to you when it’s all over. From traditional burials and cremations to the weirder alternatives (aquamation, human composting, turning yourself into a diamond, or even blasting your ashes into space), t...

Adam and Kyle kick things off with a blast from South African internet history: Crazy Monkey , the gloriously low-budget, aggressively pointless prank series that somehow became a cult phenomenon. Think Jackass … if nobody involved could quite be bothered to commit to the stunt. There’s deep appreciation for the absurdity of it all: prank calls where nobody answers, shopping trolley “stunts” that...

Adam and Kyle pick up where they left off with barbers, delving into the boredom, and the deeply uncomfortable art of small talk while someone holds scissors near your ears. From childhood salon trauma to choosing barbers specifically to avoid conversation , they unpack why haircuts should be transactional and fast… and why Turkish/Kurdish barbers, language barriers, and cash‑only mysteries someho...

Adam returns from the continent with stories that absolutely did not need telling... but tells them anyway. What starts as an innocent curiosity about hotel bidets quickly derails into robot toilets, heated seats, accidental self‑irrigation, and the very real fear of walking around with a soggy arse and no instructions. From Japanese high‑tech toilets to British bidet confusion, the lads ask the b...

Kyle and Adam somehow turn a harmless chat about maple syrup into a deep dive on global food monopolies, protected designations, and one of the weirdest crimes you’ll ever hear about: the Great Maple Syrup Heist. From Quebec cornering 70% of the world’s supply to debates about price‑fixing, reserves, and whether maple syrup could ever replace petrol (spoiler: absolutely not), the episode kicks off...

Adam and Kyle stick the kettle on and commit, fully, to what might be their most aggressively British episode yet: over half an hour talking about tea… and somehow not running out of opinions. It starts innocently enough with oolong confusion, Yorkshire Tea loyalty, and a firm refusal to stray too far into “herbal nonsense.” But things quickly escalate into sugar vs no sugar, honey superiority cla...

Kyle and Adam thought they knew the global fast food landscape. They were wrong… and the answer to who actually tops the list isn't who you'd expect. This week the lads go worldwide, swapping their usual local haunts for a full tour of international chains. Adam raids the South African archives, Kyle brings receipts from a McDonald's visit in China, and between them they work through a Wikipedia l...
