Watch with Friends

Richard’s taping his sex with Monica, Joey’s taping his money to the back of the toilet and Mike is….erm….taping himself to Phoebe? Like, attaching himself by saying he loves her. Does that work? It doesn’t does it.  Oh! Monica’s taping things to her knees! More on that as you’ll hear. Wish I’d thought of that before I typed all that guff above. ———————————— Please keep sending us your though...

We’re back baby! For a SEVENTH series, can you believe it? Because we can’t, if we’re honest. We hope you all had a delightful break and are looking forward to chat about ice dancing, pigeons and VHS tapes. Plus, our new range of slogan-based march which may or may not be real (it’s not). ———————————— We’ll be back on Sunday with our first episode of Correspondence, where we go through all your me...

We've used the word party VERY liberally here, but please join us for a bonus episode of waffle that includes CHRISTMAS THINGS: A QUIZ! SONGS! A THIRD THING! We'll be back on Jan 5th for Series 7 proper, but in the meantime have a wonderful break and stay safe xx ———————————— If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your...

Chandler’s got a claw, Ross has new roller skates and Rachel has a three pound lobster in this week’s episode - plus Pete learns about Dutch Ovens, and we round off the series with some trademark FWF admin.  We’ve another quiz on November 17th in real actual life! It’s at The Old Queen’s Head in Angel in London - tickets are available on DICE, just search for Friends pub quiz! ———————————— Ou...

After an incredibly sad week for everyone who loves Friends, we share some of our own favourite memories of James Michael Tyler as Gunther - as well as some of yours. ———————————— If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your listening is very much already hugely appreciated) then you can always subscribe to our Patreon.&...

A really sad week in the world of Friends, with the horrible news that James Michael Tyler has passed away - we recorded this week’s episode before we heard the news, but we’ll be releasing a special mini ep later in the week talking about our favourite Gunther moments.  Meanwhile in the regularly scheduled episode: The politics of drinking breast milk, the curious world of department store s...

This week’s episode is brought to you by Pottery Barn. If you need some new furniture, ideally from colonial times, we couldn’t recommend the good people at Pottery Barn any more enthusiastically. We only need to say Pottery Barn another 15 times to be in the same league as this episode. Elsewhere, we say farewell to Janine (no great loss, let’s be honest). ———————————— Please keep sending us your...

Here we go then, one of the jewels in the crown of problematic Friends episodes, so we try to navigate our way around that as best we can. Luckily, Joey is having an excellent ep, and Phoebe is navigating the start of the Mike/David love triangle as well as the the overly involved Minsk greeting.  Also, we should warn you, at one point your ears may actually bleed. ———————————— Loads of bonus...

Unplug the phone, turn on the radio and settle in for this week’s request, which features synthetic chocolate, kissing with tongues and printing problems. Plus this episode contains Dave’s favourite ever bit of Friends dialogue…and a curious diversion to discuss gunge.  ———————————— Loads of bonus content over on our Patreon if you haven’t already subscribed - every Sunday we rifle through ou...

Despite this episode featuring both Emily and Joshua, it’s actually very good. In fact, Joshua bursts out of his beige personality briefly to make a bondage joke.  Chandler, however, is being pretty mopey having broken up with Kathy, and Rachel learns her lesson about taking an umbrella to a nightclub.  Plus, we learn all about Wiener cars after Emily almost gets run over by one. Ma...

A pivotal moment in the Friends narrative and a genuinely great moment of revelation at the end of this episode - as well as an absolutely madcap plan from Chandler and Ross. Also on the table for discussion this week: electric salt and pepper shakers, hotel pay-per-view and the church-going habits of certain Coronation St actors…and we say farewell to Tag. Not many tears shed there. ————————————...

A first on FWF this week as the person that requested this only did so to make sure they hadn’t actually dreamt it. Not even kidding. So while Chandler tries to open a door, Monica is making sexy noises as Phoebe and Joey is having a very bad time actually.  And we go off on what can only be described as too many tangents, even by our standards. ———————————— Also please keep sending us your t...

Big tongues and beautiful wives are on the agenda this week, plus a ruddy great guest star in Chrissie Hynde who contributes much more to this episode than you might realise… Thank you SO MUCH if you were at the live show this weekend at the London Podcast Festival, we had such a nice time and it was so nice to meet so many of you! ———————————— Loads of bonus content over on our Patreon if you hav...

One of the madder storylines in Friends this one, as Phoebe thinks a cat is her mother. Luckily, it’s countered by an excellent robbery and a canoe. What more could you possibly want? ———————————— Do keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s episode - over on our Patreon we’re do a weekly show where we empty our inbox every week and respond to all your excelle...

“Jingle bitch screwed me over…” Betrayal, jealousy and a burnt artificial leg. Those are the three themes of this week’s episode, plus an honourable mention to Chandler’s third nipple.  There’s also a fairly decent portion of the episode dedicated to pigs. Find out why (what a tease, huh?) ———————————— And do keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s epis...

Quite a serious episode of Friends, this one - a lot of emoting between the Friends, but thankfully the gags come courtesy of a green drink and an English man called Don.   Meanwhile, Pete has a trouser accident. It’s not what you’re thinking. But it’s still very funny. The picture will be on our socials later today… ———————————— And do keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general...

Inky lips, neighbour waving and park sex this week as we travel back to Season 5 to the start of Rachel’s Ralph Lauren career. And a whole episode where Ross functions like a sort of regular human, implausibly. ———————————— And do keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s episode - over on our Patreon we’re do a weekly show where we empty our inbox every week...

Threesomes, vomit and heart attacks: what an upbeat party to complete the most peculiar storyline in all of Friends. And inspired by Monica’s conversation about oysters, we learn which other foods are supposedly aphrodisiacs. Don’t say we never teach you anything here on FWF. ———————————— Loads of bonus content over on our Patreon if you haven’t already subscribed - every Sunday we rifle through o...

Perhaps the maddest of all the episodes in the whole of Friends, we travel to an ALTERNATE REALITY. Imagine pitching that as a storyline idea in a meeting back in 2000. But there’s still lots to enjoy as well as some trickier elements (classic Friends).  Also worth noting the AWKWARD PAUSE before the theme tune when you watch it back. This is why there’s always a joke there usually guys. And...

A half-time substitution sees Mike replace David for the second half of the season 9 finale, a large portion of which is just a ping-pong match. And the rest is just a big love quadrangle between Ross, Rachel, Joey and Charlie, plus a confusing game of hide-and-seek. ———————————— Don’t forget that every Sunday we’re releasing extra episodes over on our Patreon where we dig through your corresponde...

A rare mention for Anna Kournikova on Friends this week, as part of a very realistic computer virus storyline. Meanwhile we have a new idea for a line of merchandise (which we won’t make, don’t worry) and we wave goodbye to David once and for all. ———————————— Don’t forget that every Sunday we’re releasing extra episodes over on our Patreon where we dig through your correspondence, emptying our va...

“Was that place THE SUN?” A lot to unpick this week, not least some background on the pain of getting kneed in the balls. Plus an excellent guest appearance from Jennifer Coolidge in all her dancing glory, the end of Rachel and Joey’s ill-fated romance, and the problems with Ross’ tan. ———————————— Also please keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s episode...

One of the best guest appearances, this, from Applegate - in fact Pete might go as far as to say his FAVOURITE. Big call, that. Plus a slightly odd side-plot about plates because why not.  On that topic, who wants to provide Dave with some free plates? More details contained within.  ———————————— Also please keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s...

Also known as the one with all Rachel’s sex dreams. Meanwhile Ross is getting to grips with anew-fangled bit of technology, the ‘beeper’, and Monica is…well…embroiled in a problematic situation to say the least.  ———————————— Don’t forget that every Sunday we’re releasing extra episodes over on our Patreon where we dig through your correspondence, emptying our various inboxes with your excell...

Trading Pete’s grandma for a camel is the surprise running theme of this week’s episode - but in more Friends related storylines, it’s all about nitpicking the travel problems from New York to Nova Scotia, and really leaning into Joey’s brief career as a waiter. Lean, lean, lean. ———————————— Also please keep sending us your thoughts, observations and general feedback on this week’s episode - over...
