Lads Anonymous

Lads Anonymous

Ricky & Flav, two inseparable best mates who partied their way through the last twenty years, suddenly find themselves in their forties. With their unbreakable bond, intertwined experiences and a quest to understand the world today, they welcome you to pull up a pew and join their safe space where they share their trials, tribulations and midlife crises. They’ll answer your anonymous dilemmas and invite you to share ‘Something Only You Know’ to get off your chest. It’s your safe space, welcome to Lads Anonymous. The lads start with a central theme for each podcast chosen by the audience and then navigate their way with authentic chat whilst regaling their stories, advice and personal experiences. Capricious in their chat, lurching from the fragilities and vulnerability of man to the ridiculousness and silliness of lad's chat. Scratching just beneath the surface of the lads' banter, you’ll find two men in their early forties who candidly chat around topics such as; friendship, Valentine’s Day, laziness, time travel and a fear of flying… The antidote to inauthentic, alpha male podcasts - we are Lads Anonymous, we are the many. If you enjoyed this podcast, please follow us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and leave a review or rating. Love Ricky and Flav. Send us your suggestions for our next subject! If you have any dilemmas that you want advice on or want to submit for 'Something Only You Know', step into the circle of trust: mailto:Ladsanonpod@gmail.com (all submissions will remain anonymous - no face, no case).
