It’s our final episode of 2025 🎉
The boys sit down to reflect on the year and honestly… what a year it’s been. We revisit the resolutions set at the start of 2025 and see who actually followed through. From Pete’s much discussed hair transformation to Sam’s rollercoaster of a year, including his attempt at becoming a Twitch streamer, we find out how many boxes were really ticked off along the way.
We also look back at the ye...

It’s Christmassss! It’s our annual Staying Relevant Christmas episode and this year we’ve swapped Santa and Rudolph costumes for something far more sophisticated. Matching pyjamassss. A choice Pete was NOT thrilled about, mainly because he doesn’t even own pyjamas.
We’re spreading festive cheer as the boys compare their wildly different Christmases, quickly sparking a classic Pete rant on why he hates Christmas, why no one actua...
On this week’s bonus the boys accidentally imagine their future daughters Olive and Rose on social media and immediately regret it, as things take a chaotic turn.

This week we’re asking the BIG question: would Pete or Sam ever make their TV comebacks? Pete spills all on Strictly and the one condition that could tempt him into an All Stars return. Meanwhile, with Sam’s trip to Australia… could the jungle be calling his name again?
Now that the boys are officially business owners, we also imagine what would happen if they walked into The Apprentice boardroom. What would they pitch...
You heard it right ladies and gents, Sam Thompson is officially off the market, the tough year is over. And he's got big plans to celebrate... involving some Italian dress up (nothing like you're imagining, we promise).

This week Sam is joined by a VERY special guest... (if I do say so myself)... with Pete still in some unknown location, Producer Pippa is keeping his seat warm!

On this week’s bonus episode, Parking Wars make a dramatic return - tensions are high, but not as high as Sam’s heart rate after Sam reads his own fan fiction novel from listener Lila… let’s just say, it’s seriously spicy.

Las Vegas was on the horizon when we recorded this episode so the boys chat all Vegas planning with casinos, cowboys, pool parties and Sam annoying Pete on the plane.

Plus we chat fainters and squirters (no context needed), our take on Warner Bros. Studio Tour - The Making of Harry Pott...
This week, Sam missed the Monday meeting… again. Which led to a full team vote on who we’d rather trust with the company: Pete or Sam.
With Tess and Claudia leaving Strictly, the boys’ names have somehow been thrown into the mix, so Sam gets his very own glitterball audition. Also Christmas chat is creeping in too and Pete’s already annoyed, but we rope him into reviewing meal deals with a bit of Mariah Carey singing thrown in. ...
On this week's spoooooky Halloween bonus episode we discover the boys are off to Vegas! What are they up to? No one knows - but expect pure CHAOS. The team finally headed off to Harry Potter for Sam's belated birthday celebrations and Pete was way too excited to wave his wand around.
