Recorded straight from our cosy trailer-turned-ultra-marathon-basecamp, this episode is part sweaty milestone, part nature doc, and part Norwegian linguistics lesson (don’t ask—just embrace Bridemoud). Scott hits 70 miles in 16 hours, edging closer to his dream 100-miler, and opens up about the brutal new challenges that nearly stopped him in his tracks. We talk foxes, deer, and bunny cameos, plus what it’s really like living in a caravan part time. "Shelby’s Good Vibes Only" celebrates Rafa Nadal’s emotional farewell at Roland Garros, while Scott’s "WTF of the Week" sails straight out of a Nordic fever dream: a 135-metre cargo ship mysteriously appears in Johan Helbergs garden.

Ever wondered how kindness can sometimes drive you crazy? We dive into that and much more as Shelby shares her first opera experience, La Bohème, a birthday treat for her mum. We laugh about Shelby’s £20 violin purchase, and end up shocked by the surprising affordability of musical instruments. Plus, we chat about the shocking environmental cost of ChatGPT, and on the other side of the spectrum, how Ecosia is planting trees with every search (every 0.8 seconds to be exact). This week’s WTF moment: a man sets fire to his own house just to watch firefighters, and Shelby’s Good Vibes Only brings a heartwarming tale of 64 years of lifelong friendships and monthly pints.

We dive into our obsession with the TV show 'Love on the Spectrum' and how it sparked a chat about synesthesia, number personalities, and why autistic people would make brilliant politicians—less ego, more logic. Then Scott drops his most outrageous story yet: someone he met while travelling in Romania who did no work for an entire year, somehow kept his job—then spiraled straight into a crazy party with politicians, before finally getting fired. Plus, this week’s WTF moment? The genius who unknowingly paid £20K to buy back his own stolen Honda—and Shelby’s heart-melter: Leonardo the tortoise’s nine-month escape and his glorious homecoming.

We kick off in a foul mood before celebrating Scott’s belated birthday with a mad dash through The Ivy and Everyman Cinema (and a cautionary tale about Tattu). Shelby’s flawless one-take video magic contrasts hilariously with Scott’s five-take blooper reel, and we connect over both secretly running YouTube channels before we even met—and debate the great fruit-salad divide. Then it’s 20 minutes to Amsterdam with no safety spiel, plus ATL’s tram voice-over tour of pianos, chapels, art, and speedy Mobile Passport Control. Top it off with Scott’s WTF of the Week—Australia’s six-month AI radio host con—and Shelby’s heart-sting of hope: a paralyzed man tackling the London Marathon.

We dive into the best over-the-counter meds for surviving long-haul flights, and Shelby confesses to waking herself up mid-air with a fart, blaming the poor soul next to her and triggering a full-blown cabin investigation. Things take a darker turn as we unpack the recent rise in plane crashes in 2025. Meanwhile, Scott shares some recent travel tales: a grown man dribbling on himself the entire flight, a one-hour maintenance delay, and a parking-space standoff between airlines—complete with sarcastic pilot commentary broadcast over the tannoy. Plus, Scott’s WTF of the Week covers Beijing’s first human-robot half-marathon (spoiler: the humans got smoked), and Shelby’s Good Vibes Only shines a light on a promising peanut allergy treatment.
