Things People Do

We've got Pete Wicks on the show this week, and he's quite simply one of our favourite guests we've ever had. He's here to explain what a 'TV Personality' is, and why it is a ridiculous "job". He does have some quite useful tips on how to successfully stay famous though, how to sell out the O2 with a podcast, and crucially how to get an invite to The BRIT Awards and every other celebrity after party. Joe spends a lot of this episode taking notes...

We're going back to one of the very first episodes of Things People Do today, and it's a huge topic. Our guest is sleep expert James Wilson, and he is here to answer everything we've ever wanted to know about sleep... why do we need it? How much should we be sleeping? Are naps actually good for you?

Finally, a legit episode where Joe could have brought his Gavel... and he forgot it. Never mind, because our guest today is Irita Marriott, who is an auctioneer and former antiques dealer! She has seen many a bidding war in her time, and is here to tell us if random items you have in your house are actually worth anything, and about how antiques fairs work. If you're a fan of car boot sales (who isn't?), then this is the episode for you...

What happens when the plan goes out of the window at a live show? You improvise. Luckily, the audience in Brighton were phenomenal, so when our guest was unable to make the second half, we were armed with a series of spectacular and ludicrous questions for Joe and Tom to delve into, such as 'what would Joe rather give up, sex or Padel?'. Good job Joe's wife wasn't in the audience for the answer...

Joe derails this one pretty quickly into a competition of who has the healthier heart.

Cardiac Physiologist, Brendan, teaches us loads about the different areas of the heart, how we can keep our hearts healthy and the unknown signs of a heart attack. And of course, he comes armed with silly stories about burping, bums and some of the most ridiculous myths about our hearts.

It's a new instalment of Things People Review, where we talk about all the cultural things we've been up to. We chat the big 3: TV, steak and OnlyFans. And discuss whether we would fit in best watching a ballet or an opera.

We also consider whether we should bring back some of our previous listeners for a catch up on future episodes of Things People Review. Let us know what you think!

Can a plane just fall out of the sky? And what happens if the pilot needs a poo mid-flight?

We ask this week's guest Flea. She is a commercial airline pilot who tells us everything we've ever wanted to know about flying a plane, including the meals they eat, why it's called a cock pit and if birds ever get sucked up into the engine.

We can count on one finger, the number of people who have worked in a doughnut van and who have also been part of the Portsmouth Reptile Society. And she joins us today. It's Suzi Ruffell.

Suzi joined us at our live show in Brighton, where she told us about all of the things she used to do before becoming a big name comedian. Including how she used to smell so bad from one of her jobs, her mum made her get undressed before entering the house.

This week, Joe and Tom sit down with Anna and Nev, the sibling duo behind the UK’s oldest family-run caff. It’s been serving up lasagnas, fry-ups and strong cups of tea for 125 years — long enough to witness changing food trends, a few fights behind the counter, and some very questionable breakfast orders. They spill the beans on famous customers, proper portions, and why calling it a “café” is just plain wrong. Oh, and Madonna might have had their bread and butter pudding.

We love Anna and Nev's Down the Caff podcast, and you will too! You can find it here: https://podfollow.com/1747158023

How do museums work? What’s the point of them? How would Joe break into one? And do they even have insurance? Sarah, a listener, who is also a museum director, has come to see Joe and Tom to explain all.
