Reading Scott's Diary

Happy Christmas RSD fans! The podcast with heart returns for a joyful walk down memory lane as Scott and Lizzie take a look at more tat from Scott's past, unearthing boiled lemurs, a disturbing Rydell High shirt and a shocking piece of morbid memorabilia. Elsewhere, table talk turns to intimate waxing, sandy sandwiches and tackle whether Lizzie is finally a MILF.

It's the season finale! Scott celebrates his 15th in style as he gets a brand new flip phone, flattens a chair and sees a BIG birthday bulge. Elsewhere, his role as Satan is talk of the school, he enjoys his pop divas when he's home alone and comes to Sharon Osbourne's defence after a viewing of TV's Bitchiest Moments. Around the table, Lizzie and Scott chat how to pronounce film titles, poorly received small talk and a thundering performance of Riverdance.

With Scott's 15th birthday merely days away, he contemplates calling the whole thing off, takes pride in his shoe size and has a near death experience?! Along with a teen magazine problem page photocopied and stuck in the diary, Scott and Lizzie chat getting Valentine's cards from your mum, hating pugs, menacing cats and just how much IS a first class stamp in 2023?

Scott's 15th birthday is STILL on the horizon as he gets a very memorable headache, gives his trousers a good mashing, and gets positively giddy over a death on Wisteria Lane. Around the table, Lizzie and Scott enjoy a big book of dinosaur jokes, what Lizzie thinks as she watches Friends for the first time ever, and a live on-air toenail reveal.

Scott gets involved with two of 2005's biggest trends: happy slapping and LiveStrong charity wristbands, celebrates Charles and Camilla's BIG announcement, and catches his grandma red handed in an egg-based lie. Around the table, Lizzie and Scott chat making a screensaver for your crush, panic buying gig tickets and asks did their generation invent sex?

It's February 2005 as Scott repeatedly tries to cheat in exams, comes down with a very mysterious illness and helps clean his grandad's buckets, all with his 15th birthday on the horizon!!! With Lizzie, they chat getting ghosted, performative lesbianism, road-tripping with Sea Monkeys, Lizzie’s intimate encounter with a mirror and Scott's Instagram spat with a member of Steps.This episode contains discussions of true crime that may not be suitable for all listeners.

Scott takes study leave as he prepares for his year 10 exams, continues his hunt for a remote control and gets loose in the bath. Meanwhile, Lizzie is OFF vanilla slices after Scott's toilet blunder, and chats about the way not to market films, unacceptable names for chickens and how amazingly talented they both are.

Scott sells his body parts for cash, gets violent with a crayon, and enjoys the hottest night in the school calendar: Stars in Their Eyes. Pupils take to the stage as Blue, Judy Garland and Björk, but it's the Red Hot Chili Peppers that send everyone mad. Table talk with Lizzie turns to Scott's inability to be punished, Big Brother's golden ticket giveaway and how we all sweat.

RSD turns 50! In the 50th episode of THE podcast with heart, Scott’s fingernails are under the microscope, he offers to rustle up some grub for his friends, and laughs for the very first time. Around the table, Lizzie and Scott chat being embarrassed by a menu, party song royalty Black Lace and Scott witnessing a clumsy new mother's blunder on the Tube.

It's January 2005 as Scott's masculinity is questioned in drama class, he gets hot and bothered about nocturnal emissions, and Hollywood is reeling after Brad and Jen announce their split. Elsewhere, Scott's got covid! With Lizzie, he chats ironic vinyl purchases, growing up in Blackpool, and asks will Peter Kay still be funny in 2025?
