Robbie is back in the studio fresh off the back of a family trip to Canada… which did not go to plan in more ways than one. He details everything that went wrong, from missed flights to illnesses to disappointing tourist attractions. Plus a story involving a strange man on the bus, and windscreen washer fluid… 

Stevie has been doing questionable things with pet dogs, and nearly killed his nan on a trip to Pleasurewood Hills. We maaaay have also found a song to rival “I’m going to rip your fucking arms off”!

Comedian, author, and accidental wellness guru Russell Kane takes us for a rapid ride through his chavvy upbringings, Shakespearian dreams, and his deep hatred of Chihuahuas. 

From his chaotic council estate roots and leaving school with barely any qualifications, to topping his uni class and eventually winning the Edinburgh Comedy Award, Russell shows how hard work and curiosity can outdo privilege. He shares the exact moment that changed his mindset and sparked a lifelong obsession with self-improvement, knowledge, and proving people wrong. 

He also dives deep into how he's literally reversing ageing through evidence based routines and science backed supplements… without going full Bryan Johnson! He shares his best diet and exercise tips, and discusses how he’s building a business that aims to make people biologically younger. 

Russell chats about getting booed off stage, cancel culture, and why he rarely watches other comedians. Plus weird pet stories, fatherhood, and his fascination with misunderstood historical figures (wait til you hear about the secret life of Gandhi…)

The Theory Slammers (AKA SlamJar and Slamwise Gandhi) are once again donning their clever clogs caps and busting some myths inspired by TV show ‘Mythbusters’. 

Is yawning contagious? Can a human catch a bullet in their teeth? Could a penny dropped from the Empire State Building kill someone? What pwould happen if you let a bull run loose in a china shop? Can acid dissolve a dead body like in Breaking Bad? What if an elevator you’re riding suddenly plummets… can you save yourself by jumping at the very last second? 

All these myths have actually been tested on Mythbusters, so the boys can debate whether it’s possible and theorise which chaotic experiments were used to test it, and Stevie can reveal the truth! 

Plus Alfie has an embarrassing LinkedIn confession, and Jaack admits to an INSANE motorway driving habit…

Comedian Nick Helm joins us for a wild ride through his mind, and it’s one hell of a trip. He destroys our set in protest over some Pokémon figurines. Nick ruthlessly judges Jaack’s top 3 movies. And we go waaaay too deep on a question about how many pet chickens Nick’s house can hold.

Nick admits to being a fraud as he reveals his 2011 Edinburgh Fringe “Funniest Joke” win was actually STOLEN. He also shares his savage take on past Fringe joke winners and Jaack’s own one liners.

Stevie is taking inspo from Mythbusters (and Fiona) and has brought a handful of theories to the virgin table for Jaack and Alfie (AKA The Theory Slammers) to SLAM. 

Can a regular playing card be turned into a deadly weapon with one powerful throw? Could you blast yourself into space using fireworks? Is it possible to bend a bullet in mid-air? Does running in the rain keep you drier than walking through rain? 

All these myths have actually been tested on Mythbusters, so the boys can debate whether it’s possible and theorise which chaotic experiments were used to test it, and Stevie can reveal the truth! 

Plus Jaack explains his beef with a local running organisation...

This week’s Happy Hour guest is the effortlessly cool Adam Pearson. An actor, presenter, and disability rights campaigner, there’s really not much Adam ISN’T bloody brilliant at. Fresh from the bright lights of Hollywood and into the ironically brighter lights of the ridiculously yellow Happy Hour studio, Adam comes equipped with his sharp wit, seamless charisma and even a present for Jaack and Stevie! 

Are we just being nice about Adam because he is one of the only Happy Hour guests to come baring gifts? Honestly no. Adam is one of the loveliest blokes to ever grace our studio, and this episode is destined to fit right onto the shelf labelled “instant Happy Hour classics”. Being born with neurofibromatosis - a condition that causes tumours to grow all over his body - life was inevitably hard for a young Adam, as he fought with bullies in the vicious battlefield of the school classroom. We ask Adam questions you’re too afraid to ask someone with a facial disfigurement, and he shares how he deals with having a twin brother who does not suffer with the same symptoms, and tells us how parents should react when their curious children ask questions about someone with a visible difference. 

Stereotypes, stigma and preconceptions have all had to roll over and concede a big fat L to Adam who seems to just smash everything he turns his hand to. From working in television on much loved British shows such as ‘The Undateables’ and ‘Beauty And The Beast’, to breaking into Hollywood with jaw dropping performances in films like ‘Under The Skin’ and ‘A Different Man’. If one thing is clear in this episode… it’s that Adam was born simply to be a star.

Jaack, Stevie and Alfie are reliving their teenage years by playing iconic drinking game 'Never Have I Ever' (minus the drinking). Have we ever: cried over a movie? Lived alone? Been excluded from school? Been ghosted or catfished? Or got in a car with a stranger?

There's stories about how Jaack nearly dated the girlfriend of a One Direction band member, how Stevie's mum betrayed him and got him in major trouble at school, and why Alfie spent a year sleeping on the floor.

Plus Jaack found a new beau at a festival, Stevie nearly dies during the pod, and Alfie has yet another midlife crisis.

When Jaack received a chance DM one day from Zack Wilson, who offered to send out an exotic fruit basket, Jaack was compelled to learn more of his story. Zack’s early life was the polar opposite of what it is today - from being excluded from school 25 times and battling bullies after being diagnosed with Freeman-Sheldon syndrome, to wild nights out raving and severe drug addiction. After a near-fatal car crash and the sudden death of his father on the day they were due to launch their new business together, Zack found himself at breaking point… then a box of fruit on his 27th birthday changed everything. 

Zack has now turned his pain into a purpose, by dedicating his life to learning about the healing powers of thousands of varieties of fruit. He shares which fruit is the most underrated medicine, and how you can use the properties of certain fruits to replace the feelings once gained through hard substances. Zack details his experiences with drugs Kambo, Bufo, and Ayahuasca, and exactly what happens when you visit a shaman. He also brings in a giant basket of exotic fruits - some we’ve never even heard of - and we end the pod with a taste testing! 

This is one of the rawest (excuse the pun) and most inspiring stories we’ve ever shared on the podcast.

He gives us a full run down of the entire day, and goes over what he did on the morning of (including two things that are VERY unconventional for Alfie), the sentence that had to be cut from the speech, and the tiny mistake that ruined all of the photos…

Oh and in other news, Stevie gives us an update on his deformed skull.
