  • About Child Psychologists: Why do kids hate broccoli?

    Our guest this week is Dr Anna Colton, a Clinical Psychologist specialising in children and adolescents. We learn what Joe and Tom are like as parents, and find out if they're doing it right. Or if right even exists.


    And what are her thoughts on giving kids their main and dessert at the same time?!

  • About Polar Explorers: How do you survive in Antarctica alone?

    Our guest today is the first and only man to traverse Antarctica (twice) using human power alone... let that one sink in. The first thing he told us about on today's episode was 'polar penis', so he gets the show as well. This one is full of phenomenal stories of survival, near death experiences and freezing cold temperatures. It also turns out that there are two South Poles - who knew?

  • About The Traitors: The ultimate guide to lying and deception

    Our guest today is... a Traitor. It's all anyone is talking about, the biggest show on TV, where lies and treachery are the name of the game. Paul from series 2 of the Traitors was a master of deception, and he's here to tell us what it's actually like behind the scenes of that famous Scottish castle. We ask all the important questions - what's Claudia Winkleman like? Does anyone ever actually eat breakfast? Would you be suspected of being a Traitor if you pooed with the door open? The usual stuff. Even if you haven't watched The Traitors, this is the ultimate guide to lying and deception... with all the usual nonsense as well.

  • About Sobriety: What happens when you can't remember your night out?

    Our guest today has a very powerful story, which started when she woke up in a cemetery on the morning after our London Palladium Show in 2023. Laura is a listener, who doesn't drink any more. She is a former pub manager, who now works as a peer mentor, helping others on their sobriety journey. This episode has some laugh out loud moments, and some more serious ones as well. Alcohol is an engrained aspect of our society, and this is not an episode telling people not to drink. But, it's healthy to assess our relationship with it from time to time and we're grateful to Laura for sharing her story with us.
