From rare drinks you can’t buy in the UK to bizarre laws around the world — Dan & Ron kick off 2026 with a laid-back but eye-opening conversation.

In Episode 126, Dan and Ron sit down for their first episode together of the new year, easing into 2026 with a chilled and wide-ranging chat. Ron starts things off by talking about his favourite drink, Smirnoff North — not banned, just impossible to get hold of in the UK — before the conversation naturally drifts into the simple brilliance of a glass of Baileys.

The episode then takes a nostalgic turn as Ron shares stories from a school trip to Belgium, leading into a discussion on whether Belgian chocolate really is superior — or if it’s all just clever marketing. From there, things get more philosophical as Dan and Ron explore some of the strangest laws in the world, including the UK’s approach to free speech and America’s controversial “Stand Your Ground” law in Florida.

To round things off, the lads talk about what 2026 holds, personal plans for the year ahead, and whether Ron might finally be booking a holiday. A relaxed, thoughtful, and occasionally bizarre episode — the perfect way to start the year.
