Welcome to a massive milestone—Episode 50 of Glaswegians Anonymous! We’ve hit the big five-0, and the patter is as chaotic as ever.

As you can probably guess from the title, "Every Fart's a Fear", we're in top form this week.

We kick things off with Gary issuing a formal (well, sort of) apology for his ADHD completely taking over the "Two Diddies" episode.

With the 2026 Glasgow Commonwealth Games officially launching this week, the boys get to thinking: what exactly should go into the official "Glasgow Welcome Pack" for visiting athletes?

Plus, we talk swally and scran. Darren goes on a legendary rant about his absolute hatred for IPAs, we ask if anyone has actually survived a can of Super Lager, and we finally get to the bottom of Darren’s infamous "Omelette Gate" at the China Sea.

Gary also drops his recommendation for the best Indian in the city.For the tourists (and the locals), we review Glasgow's top TripAdvisor attractions, share our own personal top tier things to do, and discuss our favourite things about the city's two footballing cathedrals: Celtic Park and Ibrox. Finally, we pull back the curtain on the comedy scene to talk about drinking before gigs, and reminisce about the traditional Glasgow method for teaching weans how to swim... just chuck 'em straight in the deep end!
