Jack Manifold and Tom Simons are back and this week, it gets weird. From zombie fungus theories to cringey nightclub stories, the boys address the questions that are on everyone’s lips, like could climate change lead to human-extinction mushrooms? Are there volcanoes under the sea? And the big one - is deodorant for girls secretly weaker?


TOPICS THIS WEEK:

● TommyInnit’s £1.50 deodorant disaster at a Sabrina Carpenter concert
● Napoleon's body odour kink
● Jack Manifold’s chaotic night at the club involving social anxiety and mega awkward eye contact
● Are there hidden volcanoes under the ocean? Yes, and the tectonic plates are arguing
● Could The Last of Us fungus actually evolve into a human mind-control plague?
● Climate change talk: why “global warming” is the wrong name for it and could there be an extinction event soon?
● Jack’s repaired eyeball, optician drama & stage blindness stories
● Nintendo Switch 2 update + Mario Kart vs PS5 debate
● Are we all colour blind? 
● Bioluminescent humans and UV-seeing animals
● Bee Movie science, 3D-printed food, and why we all might be eating crickets soon
● Weirdest audience interactions, parasocial moments, and being sad and alone in a bar

Plus: Quackity-teasing, Sabrina Carpenter at Hyde Park, Claro’s Zoom-call performance energy, praise for Olivia Dean, BlueSky vs Threads chat, and philosophical questions like “Would you survive the apocalypse if the bees died?”


 BONUS CHAOS:

● Jack’s existential skincare crisis 
● Tom builds a rock kingdom on the beach and becomes a micro-managing project lead 
● New social media with new rules?
● Could we actually dig to China?
