Life Slacks

The Preshaah is already fed up with Halloween, despite it barely being October, while Frosty reckons there's a time and a place for seasonal misery. We discuss the magic of telling yourself you'll just do five minutes of that boring job you've been putting off (and whether it actually works), before attempting some veterinary-themed improv that probably shouldn't be allowed near real animals.

Plus, it's mutant spider season, we explore the benefits of Parkrun, catch up on the latest gadget news, and have another good moan about the things that get our goats.

Summer is in full swing, which means the boys are asking the important questions: is it actually OK for men to go topless in public? Whether you're in the shops, out for a run or wandering through a field, where exactly do we draw the line?

There’s also plenty of chat about enjoying the cinema’s finest feature during the summer months: air conditioning. Forget the film — sometimes it’s just nice to sit somewhere cold.

Elsewhere, we introduce the latest Spring Onion Life Slack, Frosty continues his increasingly desperate search for potato milk, and we investigate the ever-growing world of milk alternatives. How many different kinds of milk do we actually need?

The boys also have very different opinions on Nordic walking. One thinks it’s a perfectly respectable way to exercise. Frosty absolutely does not.

There’s also some questionable maths around counting calories while drinking, plus a trip into Music Time, featuring the new Rolling Stones album, Radiohead at the Royal Albert Hall and the latest Fontaines D.C. album.

This month’s Gadget News looks at the rise of smart trolleys and a very important new development in the world of pubs: loud phones being banned in Wetherspoons.

A listener gets in touch to nominate one of life’s great annoyances: litter. And naturally, the boys have plenty to say about it.

All this, plus the usual nonsense, on another episode of Life Slacks — life hacks for lazy people.

The slackers are back! Join The Preshaah and Frosty for another gloriously unnecessary deep dive into life’s biggest (and smallest) questions.

This episode includes:

• 👨‍🏫 Frosty reveals what it’s really like trying to be the cool teacher. Is it possible? Should anyone even try?
• 🥔 The baffling mystery of potato milk. Who asked for it? Why does it exist? Does anyone actually drink it?
• 🥛 Milk Chat returns! The definitive ranking is settled once and for all: Blue top or green top? One thing’s for certain… never red.
• 🏃 The Preshaah celebrates dropping below 75kg, then immediately has to sprint through town like an action hero to catch his train.
• 🧗 Frosty’s been back on the bouldering wall, lifting weights and making the most of the sunshine. Turns out exercise isn’t completely terrible… sometimes.

This month’s grumbles include:
🎢 Theme parks charging extra for fast-track tickets (so apparently queuing is now a premium feature).
🐶 Dogs that just won’t stop barking. We love dogs… but does the whole street need to know they’re awake?

As always, expect plenty of pointless tangents, questionable opinions and absolutely no useful life advice.

Life Slacks with The Preshaah and Frosty – taking life's biggest issues slightly less seriously than everyone else.

Early mornings aren’t for everyone… especially not Frosty.

This week on Life Slacks, The Preshaah and Frosty attempt a 7am “breakfast show” record on Good Friday—but while Preshaah’s bright-eyed and buzzing, Frosty is hanging on for dear life after a heavy night. Expect questionable energy levels, slow starts, and the kind of honesty only a hangover can deliver.

They get into Easter traditions (and whether anyone actually understands them), before unleashing AI on The Preshaah… which quickly turns into a full-blown roast. Naturally.

In Gym Talk, it’s a tale of two lifestyles: Preshaah is flying—disciplined, focused, thriving—while Frosty reflects on the harsh reality that partying and peak performance don’t exactly go hand in hand.

It’s chaotic, it’s sleepy, it’s slightly unwell… but it’s Life Slacks.

Topics include:

• Good Friday vibes & Easter traditions

• AI absolutely cooking The Preshaah

• Gym highs vs hangover lows

• Why 7am recordings should maybe never happen again

Grab a coffee… Frosty definitely needs one.

March has arrived and so have the vibes 🌼

In this month’s episode of Life Slacks, we celebrate St David’s Day (yes, there’s at least one passionate Welshman involved), bask in the pure elation of spring finally showing its face, and chat about Owen directing a very cool new music video for Eoin Miller.

We also dive into the slightly terrifying rise of A.I. — is it helping us, replacing us, or quietly plotting? 👀 — and in Gym Talk we get into why the best routine is the one that actually works for you. No trends, no pressure — just finding your rhythm when you can.

Expect thoughtful moments, strong opinions, mild chaos, and a generous serving of absolute nonsense.

On this month's show, The Preshaah and Frosty discuss:

- The gradual transition to spring can uplift our spirits and inspire new beginnings.

- Sports and shared experiences can enhance our enjoyment of life, regardless of our lifestyle choices.

- Gardening and community involvement provide therapeutic benefits and foster connection.

- Mindfulness practices, such as simply observing our surroundings, can lead to greater clarity and creativity.

January is here, the novelty has worn off, and everyone’s pretending they’re definitely getting their life together this time. On this episode of Life Slacks, we chat about surviving the long winter stretch, easing ourselves back into routines (emotionally and very loosely), and the strange optimism that comes with exercising in January. There’s the usual life admin, questionable motivation, and a healthy dose of scepticism about self-improvement, before things descend—naturally—into What Gets Your Goat, where minor annoyances are treated with the seriousness they absolutely do not deserve. Perfect listening for a walk, a workout, or avoiding your own responsibilities.

It’s the Life Slacks Christmas Special 🎄

This week, Frosty and The Preshaah tackle the festive chaos head-on: how to write a genuinely funny Christmas cracker joke, the reality of cooking the “perfect” Christmas dinner (and why it rarely goes to plan), and survival tips for awkward festive conversations. Plus, an important reminder of the power of saying no — protecting your energy, avoiding burnout, and actually enjoying the holidays on your own terms.

Low effort advice for a high-pressure season. Merry Slacksmas.
