  S5 E27 Bags For Life

  Aug 7, 202638 minS5

  Dan and Martin are back with the pints in hand and the rants fully loaded. This week: Dan's TikTok Shop treadmill saga takes a hilarious turn (two broken treadmills, one very confused delivery driver), before the lads crack open Unbarred Brewery's Little Apple Pie Pastry Sour to see if it lives up to the hype (spoiler: jury's out). Then Martin goes full rant mode on the bizarre rise of jacket potato influencers — Spudman, the Spud Bros, four-hour queues for beans and cheese — and asks the question we're all thinking: what happened to a simple spud?

  S5 E26 Meal Deal

  Jul 31, 202639 minS5

  Dan and Martin are back with another pint-fuelled ramble. This week: England's World Cup exit (and a proper rant about the tournament's US hosting), FIFA's finest fashion disaster of a bald bloke in trainers, Argentina's dark arts, and Martin's ongoing war with British Gas and the Energy Ombudsman. Then it's onto old faces — awkward reunions, Facebook stalking, mistaken identities, and an airport encounter that definitely wasn't awkward at all (someone's having an affair, and Martin's clocked it). Plus the food chat you've been waiting for: Martin goes full meltdown over overcomplicated sandwiches, the death of the classic meal deal, McDonald's discontinuing all the good stuff, and a 12-rasher Belfast bacon sandwich that took over an hour to arrive. On the tasting bench: Unbarred Brewing's Stoutzilla – an Imperial Stout, 10%, made in Brighton. As always — grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the chaos.

  S5 E24 Hot Tubs & Pedalos

  Jul 16, 202637 minS5

  Right, settle in with a cold one because this week it's a solo mission through the absolute fever dream that is a Scottish caravan holiday. It's hot as balls, the kids have gone feral, and somehow a pedal boat nearly claims a life. We're recounting the full holiday saga — from an overzealous lifeguard who's clearly watched too much Baywatch, to a genuinely heroic belly flop into Goose Island that nobody asked for. There's Lego, there's a swimming pool full of Scottish children behaving like it's the Wild West, and a very important debate about whether anyone actually wants to see their neighbours half naked in a hot tub (spoiler: no). Along the way we're necking Soutzilla from Unbarred Brewery, going deep on whether the can art lives up to the name, and somehow ending up on a tangent about Ozark, Arrested Development, and what it actually takes to survive as a contestant on Survivor. Cold water swimming gets a mention too, because apparently we're all about "survival skills" this episode, in the loosest possible sense. Grab a Beer, pull up a deckchair, and enjoy the chaos.
