Cockney & Son

Send us Fan Mail

Episode 24 is here — and we’re officially knee-deep in Christmas chaos. From ceramic trees to collapsing garlands, Elf-on-the-Shelf disasters, panic buying gravy on Uber, and the pure joy of a £2 advent calendar… Lew and Steve break down the ultimate 2025 festive checklist and realise just how mad December has become.

Then it’s onto Adam & Eve It, where the pair tackle the very British tradition of moaning all month long: the cold, the queues, the wrapping paper that’s gone walkabout, and the eternal mystery of where the sellotape edge disappears to.

We also cover:

🎄 Keeping the peace on Christmas Day (or avoiding arguments entirely)

🎄 Matching PJs, Christmas Eve boxes & posh Santa visits

🎄 When festive coffees cost more than a small mortgage

🎄 Why Steve’s mattress was apparently made of hay

🎄 And… a fresh batch of dad jokes that may or may not have been written by “Steve’s team of professional writers.”

It’s festive mayhem, Cockney logic, and two generations trying to survive December without decking more than just the halls.

Stick the kettle on — you don’t wanna miss this one

Lew and Steve dive head-first into the most important debates in British history… well, sort of. From chip-shop curry sauce and crispy-edged crumpets to the eternal ketchup-vs-brown-sauce war, no snack is safe.

The pair also tackle the chaos of modern deliveries — Yodel, Royal Mail, lockers, drones and the poor old postie who’s “still getting off his chair.” Expect a full-blown Steve rant, naturally.

Then it’s time for Say It Like Steve, where Steve reveals what he’d fix about the country (spoiler: pensioners are getting a pay rise). And of course, there’s another round of the Bleedin’ Dad Joke — including flamingos, eyebrows, framed pictures and a pool that’s only safe “in the deep end.”

 classic Cockney & Son: two generations, one London, and opinions nobody asked for but everyone relates to.

In this week’s episode, things have been a bit heavy behind the scenes, but we’re showing up the only way we know how — with honesty, a good natter, and plenty of laughs.

We kick things off by diving into a world of classic British sayings. From “you’re having a laugh” to “it’s all gone pear-shaped,” Lew throws a list at Steve to see which phrases are still alive in 2025 and which should’ve stayed in 1973. Then it’s onto modern slang — “peng,” “peak,” “safe,” and even the mysterious “6’7” noise every kid is doing right now.

After that, the pair get stuck into a very on-trend rant: this year’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! line-up. Real celebs? Reality stars? One angry ginger? Steve’s not holding back.

In Say It Like Steve, Lew asks what Steve secretly loves about modern life — and the answer might just surprise you.

And of course, we wrap things up with The Bleeding Dad Joke, featuring long-winded nonsense, chicken wordplay, and a truly chaotic punchline involving the Pope.

Thanks for being here, especially right now. Your support genuinely means the world.

This isn’t one of our usual episodes. It’s just me Lew, speaking honestly about what life feels like right now.

The past few weeks have been some of the hardest our family has ever faced, and I’ve found myself trying to hold everything together for the people I love, even when I feel like I’m falling apart inside.

This is about love, loss, and what it means to just keep showing up even when you don’t have the right words or the strength you wish you had.

If you’ve ever supported someone through grief, or you’re in it yourself, I hope this helps you feel a little less alone.

🎙️ It’s a milestone episode — number 20! But this one’s a bit different… Lew’s at home, Dad’s in SW1, and somehow they’ve managed to record from two different locations. What could possibly go wrong?

💬 Bit of a Natter: Things that used to take ages but now take seconds — from film developing and paying bills to booking holidays and finding directions. (Spoiler: Dad still swears by an A-to-Z.)

🤖 Adam & Eve It: The pair get stuck into a proper rant about AI — the pros, the cons, and whether we’ll all be replaced by robots before Dad finally figures out his sat-nav.

😂 The Bleedin’ Dad Joke: Knock-knocks, cannibal restaurants, and a few classics you’ll either love or groan at.

It’s a chaotic but committed episode proving nothing stops these two from having a natter — not even recording miles apart.

Autumn’s here and the nights are drawing in — which means the moaning’s back in full swing!

This week Lew and Steve dive into some of the biggest misconceptions about British people:

☕ Do we really live off tea and crumpets?

🇬🇧 Do we all sound like the Royal Family?

🦷 And what’s the truth about those “bad British teeth”?

💥 In Adam & Eve It (Rant of the Week), Lew’s had enough of random fireworks going off at midnight — poor Belle’s in bits and he’s calling for a national ban (with a cheeky idea for “silent fireworks”).

🐶 Then in Say It Like Steve, a listener asks: “My dog hates my new boyfriend — should I take it as a sign?”

😂 And don’t miss The Bleedin’ Dad Joke, where things descend into chaos, bad puns, and the odd snort-laugh.

So stick the kettle on, grab a biscuit, and join two generations of London life having a right old natter.

📺 Bit of a Natter:

Lew and Steve reminisce about everyday items from the 70s and 80s that have completely vanished — from TV aerials and phone books to smoking indoors and those deadly travel sweet tins rolling around the glovebox. What will disappear next… door keys, maybe?

📦 Adam & Eve It (Rant of the Week):

After 42 years with Royal Mail, Steve’s had enough of modern-day delivery drivers! From parcels left in bins to “knock-and-run” drop-offs, he tells it exactly as it is (and confesses a few postal tales from back in the day).

🚗 Say It Like Steve:

A listener asks: “Our neighbours keep parking over our drive – do we say something or keep quiet?”

Steve’s advice? Let’s just say it’s very … direct.

😂 The Bleedin’ Dad Joke (new section):

Round two of the ultimate dad-joke showdown! Who’ll crack first – Lew or Steve?

So stick the kettle on, grab a cuppa, and have a laugh with two generations of London life.

It’s an emotional one this week — and not just because there’s sad news at the end (we’ll keep you guessing).

Lew and Dad take a trip down memory lane to talk all things Saturday Night TV, from The Generation Game and Blind Date to Gladiators and Stars in Their Eyes. Where have the Brucies and Cillas gone? And why does every show now have someone screaming into a mic?

In “Adam & Eve It”, Dad’s on a proper rant about today’s presenters, Amanda Holden doesn’t come out of this one too well 😬  while “Say It Like Steve” tackles whether love still needs flowers and chocolates once you’ve been married long enough.

But it’s not all moaning… we say goodbye to Cockney Slang Word of the Week 💔 and hello to its brand-new replacement: “The Bleedin’ Dad Joke” and trust us, you’ll either laugh or groan (probably both).

So grab a cuppa, stick the kettle on, and join two generations, one London, and a whole lot of opinions.
