It's episode 15 and to celebrate we have a guest.... KYLE. "You guys know the only two things that define me are pop culture and being gay" so you guessed it, the topic this week is POP CULTURE AND GAY. We discuss the Jordyn Woods v Kardashians DRAMA, our Real Housewife tag lines and quiz Nic on whether or not she knows the difference between lesbian gays and gay gays. Let's crack on!

Episode 14 Nic and Laura tackle pseudoscience! Nic delves into the ancient alien theory and a whole load of skiyenkay and Laura takes on anti vaccination theory which needs a vaccine of it's own... Grab your Nudes folks, let's dig in (that's the alcohol kind to you perverts).

We are back after a little hiatus- hello episode 13! Laura explains the Satanic Panic of the 1980s, featuring the OG underdog that is Satan himself, and Nic gets horned up on her favourite porno aka Pride and Prejudice (and may need one very long cold shower after). Disclaimer: we're drinking expensive tequila and we don't hate it.

Episode 12 and Nic is 12/10 wasted, and what better drunken activity then to regale us with the wonders of the Flat Earth Theory (also known as the age old debate between flattards and Balltards). Plus, Laura treats us to some 1975 erotica that she found at the back of her closet and then tells some stories about crazy Russian spies... bow chicka wow wow!

Happy episode 11! This week Laura falls down yet another reddit hole to research the most popular theories against Evolution (because bats amiright??)and Nic talks us through the wild ride of the life and lives of Whitey "Boots" Bulgar, a pretty serious gangster (and FBI informant). You may need to take notes...

Episode 10 and Happy Friendiversary to Laura and Nic! To celebrate Nic teaches Laura about the most prestigious dog pageant in the US- The Westminster Dog Show and my my is it a lot of pressure for those pure bloods. Laura covers the history of film and throws it back to 1918 where all the spooky stuff we have on our screens today was seemingly inspired. Tequila time!

Episode 9 let's bust a rhyme! Welcome to our second guest Jack! This week Laura, Nic and Jack take on the most bizarre threads on Reddit, plus Laura pits Jack and Nic against each other in the ultimate friendship quiz. The conclusion? They're both terrible friends. It's gin for the win so grab a glass and join us!
