Max Fosh joins Soph and Michael on the podcast to talk about fine dining and we promise it’s not as unbearably posh as that sounds. The three of them touch on all-important questions such as “what’s the difference between mushy peas and a pea purée?” and “are velour tracksuits appropriate dining attire?” while eating some rather fancy food. You’ll find all the answers to those burning questions (and many more) in this luxurious tasting menu of an episode. Tuck in.

It’s the first night of the holiday. You’ve just taken a seat out on the balcony, opened up a pack of Lay’s crisps, and taken your first sip of Fanta Limón over ice – perfection. This week, Michael was joined on the pod by Mob’s Head of Content Jake Gauntlett and TikTok darling Ed Jones for a big old chat about holiday eats. They cover the “perfect” beach sandwich, discuss why the baguette is the foundation of everything on holiday, and try to get to the bottom of how much tapas is too much tapas.
