  • #12 The Birthday Disaster From Hell

    What starts as a chat about birthdays and forest bathing quickly becomes:

    • Mark revisiting his childhood obsession with Radio Kerry’s late-night “Love Zone,”
    • Denis trying to understand how a 10-year-old ended up under the duvet listening to “The Way You Look Tonight,”
    • a full breakdown of Mark’s week of sickness, snuffles, lozenges, ginger shots and… tummy incidents,
    • and the stress of giving tours around Buckingham Palace while praying for survival.

    • Then Denis shares one of the most awkward moments of his life:

      • a restaurant bringing over a candlelit dessert he didn’t order,
      • the staff clapping,
      • a chocolate plate saying “Happy Anniversary” even though they’ve been dating four weeks,
      • Denis eating the entire thing himself,
      • and a second restaurant the following week accidentally starting another birthday celebration.

      • There are mint-choc cocktails, lip-syncing Americans, postman-delivered flowers, and a very fragile man on the brink.

      • #11 Gays Behaving Badly (Again)

        This week, the lads are reviewing some starkly different movies and Mark talks moustache maintenance.

      • #10 Big New Studio and a Big Boot

        This week, Mark and Denis settle into their very blue new studio complete with TV3 morning-show energy and catch up on a surprisingly dramatic few days. Denis arrives with big news: after last week’s accident, Lisa finally got the X-ray… and came out wearing the full medical boot. Meanwhile, Mark reveals he once kept hospital crutches under his bed “for attention,” so the lads compare childhood injuries, cast envy and the strange Irish pride of hobbling around school.


        They also get into:


        • meeting listeners in the wild and the panic of having to explain “what the podcast is about”
        • crumbs on the tube, public-transport etiquette and Mark’s mother’s extreme sentencing guidelines
        • pacemakers: what they are, how they work and the wild fact that Mark has one (“a little tin of mints under the skin”)
        • medical check-ups where the nurse can see exactly what your heart was doing at 12:30am
        • Denis planning his first romantic trip to Ireland with her and discovering that Irish cottages are sometimes just… bungalows with a red door
        • the Wild Atlantic Way’s Airbnb madness, €500 hotel rooms and Ballyvaughan “cottages”
        • the Clare itinerary: the Burren, seaweed baths, Moher Pet Farm, proper stone cottages, Fanny O’Dee’s, and a safe public lunch with the parents
        • dads who loudly say “Namaste,” mothers who rename people on purpose, and why introducing partners is a high-risk sport

        • Weekly queer comedy, Irish nostalgia and two very busy men pretending they’re famous because the studio looks nice.

        • #9 Naked Gym Days

          This week, Denis arrives breathless after Lisa catastrophically injures her foot trying to hang a lampshade and somehow still insists on going to work like a post-office Terminator. Mark shares his NHS survival hacks, Denis discovers the healing power of frozen edamame, and the lads debate whether A&E is ever truly worth the eight-hour wait.


          From there, things escalate:


          • the great Homeware Heist of Dunelm (accidentally… allegedly… stealing five pans)
          • train-tapping panic, facial-recognition vans and the fear of being arrested for absolutely nothing
          • Denis joining a new gym and immediately being invited to a “Thursday Night Social Club”… in the sauna
          • Mark explains the entire gay sauna ecosystem, naked gym days, etiquette, nods, cues and exactly how to avoid ending up in the wrong/right kind of steam room
          • naked yoga, naked trivia, naked board games (apparently all real)

          • And later, the boys review Adolescence — the one-shot TV series that’s part Christopher Nolan, part technical fever dream — leading to a chat about teenage trauma, the horrors of modern tech, and the early Internet chat rooms Denis should probably not have been running at age 15.


            Weekly queer comedy, Irish nostalgia, and two men clinging to their innocence inside a sauna.

          • #8 Ireland’s Youngest Church Organist

            This week, Denis arrives giddy, sun-damp and wearing linen trousers he absolutely regrets - while Mark attempts to process the rage he now feels toward wealthy London toddlers who casually order ramen. From fancy prams to £10 baby cheesecakes, the lads spiral into the politics of poshies and why rich youngsters make Denis irrationally upset.


            We also cover:


            • emergency moisturiser, rain-ruined hair and the fear of getting struck by lightning
            • Denis’ moving day meltdown, his rogue fish-tank cabinet and the moment he accidentally released his handbrake
            • the Huel era, liquid diets and the danger of “sucking on the bones”
            • romances in Ennis, Rita Donnelly’s upcoming wedding and the sudden flood of Clare listeners
            • the legendary Doohans
            • the great mystery of the church “crying room” and the politics of being sent there
            • Denis’ failed altar-server era versus Mark’s rise to power as Ireland’s youngest church organist
            • the explosion of new followers with… creative usernames
            • gaydar failures, thirsty DMs and people asking (again) if Mark and Denis are secretly riding

            • Weekly queer comedy, Irish nostalgia and two men accidentally oversharing about chicken and Catholicism.

            • #7 The Health Benefits and Perks of Pineapples

              This week, the lads chat about Mark's love of Japan, explore the very innocent health benefits of pineapples and mull a run for President of Ireland.

            • #6 Dark Rooms Explained

              What starts as a simple chat about the warm weekend turns into:


              • Denis discovering the logistics of dark rooms,
              • Mark explaining bin bags, nudity, and cloakroom wristbands,
              • and why Denis would absolutely panic if someone lost his bag.

              • We also cover the Paddy Daddy t-shirt that’s definitely too small, balloon-jeans diplomacy, girls’ holidays, London’s sudden summer thirst, the world’s largest cat, and how Denis got exposed mid-conversation for faking football knowledge.


                A very normal week with your two favourite Irish internet boyfriends.

              • #5 STI Scares & The Next Pope

                Your Internet Boyfriends are back — and somehow covering childhood food trauma, STI clinics, cats with the strength of grown men, and papal politics all in one episode.


                Denis dives into his after-school habits (entire packets of chocolate digestives dipped in milk), stories of orange fish, water stew, and a mother who believed cooking was “part recipe, part magic.”


                We also get:


                • Mark’s week-long medical saga (stye, arm physio, a sexual health scare and a very painful bum injection)
                • Denis trying to impress his girlfriend with French toast and instead destroying a brand-new chair
                • a gigantic night-time cat who sounds like a burglar
                • mushroom sandwiches, Pokémon marathons, and Dunness Stores nostalgia
                • and Denis’ new obsession: guessing the next Pope.

                • #4 Share Your Wheelie Bin Not Your Problems

                  This week, Denis and Mark cover a frankly wild range of topics: from hanging around in trendy Dalston bathrooms to the secret political world of bin-sharing Irish neighbours. Denis survives the worst job of his life - emptying a year-old mystery soup from the shared wheelie bin while Mark explains how the Griffins next door have turned bin night into a diplomatic summit.


                  We also get into:


                  • being recognised in a toilet (and not for the podcast)
                  • old-man Irish habits: chatting to strangers at urinals
                  • the lost art of shifting behind the cinema
                  • house-hunting in London and homes laminated from floor to ceiling
                  • Mark’s many jobs: cabaret, queer tours and possibly gay ghost tours
                  • the Soho moment when a serious tour was interrupted by 20,000 screaming teenagers
                  • Facebook house parties, oranges thrown behind TVs and the guilt that still lingers
                  • who the next Pope might be (and whether Mary Harney is available)

                  • Weekly queer straight comedy, Irish nostalgia, and two men trying to survive London, TikTok and their own parents’ tech needs.


                    Hit Follow — your Internet Boyfriends are hanging out in the bathroom waiting for you.

                  • #3 The Gay Economy Explained

                    Denis has started a brand-new skincare regime (four bottles, one eye serum, and zero idea what anything does). Mark reveals his former life getting discounted Botox from a mysterious gay friend named “George.” And together they unpack the gay economy - plumbers, haircuts, taxis, and the occasional cup of tea.


                    We also cover:


                    • how to apply eye cream without ruining your face
                    • the danger of hyaluronic acid shoulder treatments
                    • the eternal Irish fear of admitting you moisturise
                    • tanning beds vs spray tans
                    • cocoa butter
                    • and Mark’s seven-year-old Leonardo DiCaprio transformation era.

                    • Plus: Denis remembers his time as a postman, Mark explains how taxi drivers used to… “waive the fare,” and we try to figure out how much of this we can ever admit to our parents.


                      Weekly queer straight romance, Irish nostalgia, and deeply unqualified skincare chat.
