This week you’re getting an extra episode alongside yesterday's Urban Legends, you lucky people! This episode is a special Room 102… And we definitely haven’t just used the format from Room 101… Stevie, Fiona and Alex are complaining about some of the things they hate the most, and Jack is choosing which one is truly the most annoying, before banishing it to Room 102. There are some big moans about stanning, mispronouncing food names, invading personal space and McDonalds - just to name a few. The question is, which one is truly the worst? Plus Stevie’s got a story about a fight on a bus and Jack’s been shouted at by an angry taxi driver. Enjoy the extra podcast! ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Our last Urban Legends episode was a big hit with you guys, so for this week’s show, Jack and Stevie are joined by Fiona and Alex for some more dark legends! Stevie’s got crazy stories about the Weeping Woman, who kidnaps children in the night and the murderous Bunnyman, who’s escaped from a mental asylum. Plus, we hear about the White Lady, who haunts and murders people, and a disappearing hitchhiker. Expect drownings, stranglings and a whole load of scary ghosts. And we'll be rating them all out of ten for believability and scariness. Strap in, this episode gets a bit wild. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Birthdays! We've all got one, and Jack's is tomorrow! He's convinced it's going to be his last one, so enjoy the podcast whilst you can... To mark the occasion, Jack's quizzing Robbie what the best age is, and what it's like to celebrate your children's birthdays. Plus the boys are reading their horoscopes. There's also some very off topic (but very interesting) conversation about Valentine's Day and whether Robbie is scared of dying... ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

For this week’s episode, Jack, Jordan and Stevie hosted Josh Pieters and Archie Manners. In case you’ve been living under a rock, they’re the masters behind the viral video of Katie Hopkins accepting a fake award, called the ‘Campaign to Unify the Nation Trophy’... We’ll let you work out the acronym there. Josh and Archie have also fooled some of the country’s biggest reality stars into saying things like "we should all keep our fridge doors open to battle global warming" AND they’ve tricked a number of YouTubers with an Ed Sheeran lookalike! As things go, they’re pretty good at pulling off top quality YouTube videos! This episode they explained how they make those videos happen, why Josh felt the need to reinvent his channel so much and they give us a tiny tease of what we can expect in the future… ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
