Vanessa Frake-Harris worked for 27 years as "Governor" of Wormwood Scrubs - one of Britain's most infamous prisons. Vanessa shares some of her most harrowing stories about what really happens behind the walls of a high security prison. From spending 2 months with serial killer Rose West, to throwing Libertines frontman Pete Doherty into segregation, the Governor has lived and breathed the depths of prison life. Vanessa speaks openly about how she believes prisons don't reform offenders as they claim to, how inmates can manipulate officers to smuggle in drugs, and how prisoners are recruited by staff as informants. Plus what happens when someone dies in prison, and how an inmate got their revenge on Vanessa... Once you've finished listening, go and grab Vanessa's incredible book 'The Governor' on Amazon! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Governor-Inside-Britains-Notorious-Jails-ebook/dp/B08H8FX3ZR/ref=cm_cr_srp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8 Learn more about your ad choices.

Ian Holloway is BACK on Happy Hour and this time he’s brought in a very special bespoke gift for Jaack! Ian discusses the greatest players he ever managed and who he considers to be the GOAT of football (it’s not Messi or Ronaldo!). He shares why he received a £25k fine and who paid it for him, plus what Ian said to Gareth Southgate that made him cry!  Ian reacts to his passionate 2010 speech about the prospect of winter World Cup and shares whether his opinion has changed now that 13 years on we HAVE seen a winter World Cup. We also play a game of “match the quote to the football manager” and Ian gives us a taste of his changing room hairdryer treatment…  If you enjoyed this episode, check out #221 for Ian’s first appearance on Happy Hour!  Learn more about your ad choices.

Stevie has gathered some hypothetical questions for the FourSkins! Would you take infinite money in exchange for sacrificing someone you know? How would you choose to die if the winner of a competition for the most spectacular death gets resurrected? Which power would you choose out of never needing to eat or sleep, never ageing, rewinding time, or excess money? If you were suddenly 10 years old again, how would you convince your parents that you're you from the future? What game would you play if you need a win to secure your release from a kidnapper? Where in London are you hiding if EVERYONE is looking for you?  If you liked this episode, check out #275, #224, #136, and #039 for even more hypothetical questions!  Learn more about your ad choices.

Sorted Food started in 2008 when a pro chef joined forces with his 3 novice foodie friends to teach them simple recipes.

Plus how to cook the perfect steak, tips for combatting fussy eating, and the easiest meal to impress a date. We ask the lads to share their favourite weird food combos and serve them up our previous guests’ strange recommendations for a live taste test! How will Theo Baker’s weird snack hold up against RateMyTakeaway’s salad cream sandwiches?! What about Jaack and Stevie’s own crimes against food? Plus cooking for the Queen, making Callux throw up from their dish, and what happened when Ben was hypnotised to be terrified of food!  Grab your tickets to Sorted Live “Snow Way Out” here - https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/sorted-live-snow-way-out-2789259 Learn more about your ad choices.

Jaack has been busy cheating at escape rooms and pulling pranks on Stevie, so Fiona has gathered some of Reddit's most famous (and infamous) stories for the boys to react to on this episode. There's a family that's hiding a dirty secret, a vegetable based lie that's affecting a relationship with the in-laws, and a couple of unusual wanking methods. Plus there's a story so vile that it genuinely makes the boys dry heave so consider this your TW if you have emetophobia! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It was 5 years ago to the day that we uploaded the first ever Happy Hour Podcast episode and we wish we could say that we've come a long way since then but judging by this episode, we really haven't... The FourSkins are getting drunk and celebrating the pod's 5th birthday the only way we know how - with cheap wine, peculiar beer, and ridiculously offensive party games. Robbie has baked cupcakes with a questionable twist, whilst we ponder guest submitted questions from the likes of David Earl, Rebecca Goodwin, Dick and Dom, and more! Can we tell each other apart from our penises alone? Are Jaack's teeth really as horrific as the internet suggests? Who IS Alfie fighting on the next MisFits event? And why is Robbie calling out a 13 year old child for a scrap? All of these questions and more are pondered within this 2.5 hour special. These past 5 years have been the happiest of our lives and we couldn't have spent it with a better audience. So pull up a chair, crack open a beverage, and join us in toasting to the next 5 years! Whether you joined us recently or have been around since day dot - thank you for supporting our silly little show. Viva la Happy Hour! Learn more about your ad choices.
