Jack leads the questioning as Sarah dives into revealing tales of early Tom Simons. Family chaos, deep chats about parenting, life, and personal growth and what it was really like raising a YouTube megastar.
Hear how conscientious parenting, plenty of therapy and Nokia bricks kept Tom grounded and how bringing Tom into the world involved a 3 day labour and a jacket potato.
Also:
Sarah’s new TV project, who knows Tom better, and a Patreon-exclusive segment ranking Tom’s friends.
Topics this week include:
- Dog disasters & slug trauma
- Fame, mental health & strict internet rules
- Parenting regrets, wins & snot sleeves
Subscribe now for laughs, overshares, mother-son therapy, and the sort of chaotic energy that only this trio can deliver.
