Welcome back to your weekly safe space for all things mortifying that you can't quite put your finger on, with Sam Darlaston & Tatum McGreal!

Obviously there's 1 big story this week you've probably seen online that we're definitely tackling...but we've got plenty more to cover as well!

As Sam's signed himself up to Borrow My Dog which has lead to the most wild 48 hours, Tatum's got another cat to throw amongst the pigeons with her thoughts on your music listening habits, there's good news for late bloomers AND of course we're chatting about the Beckham drama!

And as Bowling was such a popular topic last week, there is apparently so many things you find absolutely mortifying and you can't quite put your finger on why, that we're returning to it this week! So whether you get the ick from the shoes or just get a bit embarrassed asking to put the barriers up as a fully grown adult, this is your safe space to chat about it! Cause life's awkward innit, so might as well have a laugh!

Sam & Tatum are bringing you back to the one place that time's forgot: the Bowling alley. And there's SOOO many things that make us absolutely mortified there for no real reason, so we're providing you a safe space to get it off your chest, and share them with us!

Not only that but Tatum's claiming she doesn't remember the 2012 Olympics when it in the UK, we're chatting about the biggest trend right now of 2016 coming back for 2026, the current skiing scandal in the Winter Olympics, and a whole load of things that may or may not have gone extinct.

Sam & Tatum are back for 2026 with your weekly safe space for all things mortifying that you can't quite explain! Along with the hard hitting questions like:

• Would you describe yourself as 'Smexy'?
• And what's your favourite Paulo Nutini song?

Don't worry, we haven't ACTUALLY run out of shit to chat about! Of course, with the Traitors being back for Season 4 we NEED to talk about all the theories around the show at the minute, along with a few little predictions, with Claire's closing down we're giving a moment for the UK high street AND Tatum's got found a mad conspiracy happening with Stranger Things Season 5 (SPOILER WARNING!).

This week, we're also celebrating the embarrassing old email address you've wanted to forget about since they stopped letting you make a @hotmail accounts! The ones that maybe had an old nickname, a couple of Xs and slang from the early 2010s we haven't heard in well over 10 years! And maybe you held onto it a bit too long, so don't worry we're sharing in this episode and celebrating them as they should be! Cause life's awkward innit, so might as well have a laugh!
