590 - ADAM PEARSON - Breaking The Barriers Of Facial Disfigurement, Starring Alongside Scarlet Johansson In Hollywood, & Working On ‘The Undateables’!

This week’s Happy Hour guest is the effortlessly cool Adam Pearson. An actor, presenter, and disability rights campaigner, there’s really not much Adam ISN’T bloody brilliant at. Fresh from the bright lights of Hollywood and into the ironically brighter lights of the ridiculously yellow Happy Hour studio, Adam comes equipped with his sharp wit, seamless charisma and even a present for Jaack and Stevie! Are we just being nice about Adam because he is one of the only Happy Hour guests to come baring gifts? Honestly no. Adam is one of the loveliest blokes to ever grace our studio, and this episode is destined to fit right onto the shelf labelled “instant Happy Hour classics”. Being born with neurofibromatosis - a condition that causes tumours to grow all over his body - life was inevitably hard for a young Adam, as he fought with bullies in the vicious battlefield of the school classroom. We ask Adam questions you’re too afraid to ask someone with a facial disfigurement, and he shares how he deals with having a twin brother who does not suffer with the same symptoms, and tells us how parents should react when their curious children ask questions about someone with a visible difference. Stereotypes, stigma and preconceptions have all had to roll over and concede a big fat L to Adam who seems to just smash everything he turns his hand to. From working in television on much loved British shows such as ‘The Undateables’ and ‘Beauty And The Beast’, to breaking into Hollywood with jaw dropping performances in films like ‘Under The Skin’ and ‘A Different Man’. If one thing is clear in this episode… it’s that Adam was born simply to be a star. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

566 - The World’s WORST Inventions! (Baby Mops, Self-Destruct Cars & A Creation That KILLED Its Inventor)

Human creativity has no limits, but maybe sometimes it should have. In a new series, Stevie has found a collection of unique inventions from throughout history and it’s up to Jaack and Robbie to decide which are deemed good or bad.  There’s a device to help people tackle their bad eating habits, but it accidentally doubles as something else. We hear about a car that unexpectedly self destructs, a robot to assist hungry marathon runners and an invention that tragically killed its creator. Plus clothes that double as cleaners, cutlery that electrocutes you and cages for children.  You’ve heard of the Happy Hour Hall Of Fame, now it’s time for the Hall of Shame, filled with bad ideas with even worse execution…  Learn more about your ad choices.

563 - FOOD REVIEW CLUB - Best Bites and Worst Meals from 5,000 Takeaways, & Responding To The SCAM Allegations!

One Man. 5,000 Takeaways. Zero Salads. It’s a strange business model but Matt - creator of Food Review Club - has managed to make it his livelihood due to his genuine passion for speaking about food. The brutally honest takeaway taster has spent the last 7 years travelling the globe in search of hidden gems and shares with us the few places he’s ever dared to rate a full 10. Matt reveals where the best pizza, fish and chips, sandwich and burger are in the UK, as well as some must-visit London eats. He designs his dream fast food combo, and we cover viral food trends like Spudman, Binley Mega Chippy and Dubai chocolate. Did he like Salt Bae’s steak? What about food from Jeremy Clarkson’s farm? And how would he rate Wetherspoons food? Matt tells us why a Norwich eatery had to close down after he visited, why Dave Portnoy might hate him and the worst place he’s ever reviewed whose food he describes as nearly inedible! Matt also shares his honest opinion on fellow food reviewers BlueVanMan and Gary Eats (who gave Matt a scathing review). And after RateMyTakeaway recently called him out, he also addresses the claims he has scammed his viewers by charging establishments for reviews, and the backlash from his leaked voice note.  Learn more about your ad choices.

561 - GRACE NEUTRAL - Body Modification, Tattooed Eyeballs, EATING Your Own Skin, & Dick Splitting!

Tattoo artist and body mod icon Grace Neutral sits down for a brutally honest deep dive into the world of extreme body modification. Spending her childhood training as a ballerina, her life drastically changed direction after discovering the punk scene. Grace talks us through her own body mod procedures - none of which are actually legal - from a split tongue, to pixie ears, to tattooed eyeballs, to a removed belly button.  Grace delves into how kink and mental illness have an impact on people seeking out body modifications. She shares which of her mods she regrets, and her family’s opinion on her transformation. We get into her early days as a piercer, the sketchy ethics of underground modding, and how deeply misogynistic tattoo shop culture can be. We learn about an 107 year old tattoo artist, and the man whose mods are too extreme even for Grace! We also learn about sounding, scarification, and what it’s like to eat your own skin… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

From the entrance song, to the dress code, to surprise guests, to the food and music choices at the wake, the boys have complete free rein and Robbie has to choose which option he would prefer for his final send-off. What does his coffin look like? What should his gravestone say? And most importantly... how did he die?! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

559 - THE KOOKS - Rolling Stone Diss, Misheard Lyrics, & Kicked Out Of Their OWN Gig!

This week, Jaack and Stevie are joined by the band that defined their teenage years - The Kooks! Luke Pritchard and Hugh Harris talk us through their early days at BRIT school, getting signed by Virgin Records at just 16 years old (too young to legally sign a contract!), and dealing with the fame that came practically overnight.  With no plans to even be a singer, Luke tells us which songs were unexpected viral hits, why he was kicked out of his own gig, and what happens when Rolling Stone gives your debut album a scathing review…  Hugh shares the absolutely ridiculous band name suggestion that was turned down, why he wasn’t a fan of their huge hit ‘Naive’, and the unconventional place he chose to write the new album. The boys reveal their pre-show rituals, mad rider demands, and the most rock-and-roll thing they’ve ever done. There’s also a UFO sighting and a ghostly encounter thrown in. Ooh la!
