Shouldn't Laugh But...Laura Smyth & Carmen Butcher30 Jan

“He wipes his bum standing up!”

This episode of Shouldn’t Laugh But is a full body immersion into the chaos of leisure centres, from flumes that should absolutely be age restricted to the deeply cursed realisation that Leisure World is one of those places that hits very differently as an adult. Laura and Carmen unpack childhood water park joy, vending machine culture, plasters in the pool, and the horror of realising you are now the entertainment on a flume.

There’s also a listener debate that truly splits the nation on how you wipe your bum, including power stances, wall leaning, and why some habits should never be passed down through generations. Plus, the girls get stuck into the Ryanair versus Elon Musk beef, social media pile ons, and how you have to be a very specific kind of prick to make the CEO of Ryanair look like a legend.

Flumes, arses, airlines and billionaires getting owned. A lot is covered.
