Big John: "My mum is giving me my childhood back... and I don't want it."
Liesl: "I might have overstepped the mark on Vinted." "Again."
James: "I get dressed in the same order, stack the dishwasher the same way, park in the same space every time... and apparently that's not the weirdest thing I do."

That's where this episode starts. Then things get worse.

We expose the mistake celebrities make every time they collect an award.

This week:
John’s been contaminated by Liesl and CHAOS has followed him around all morning. Three epic fails before he’d even stepped outside the house.
Liesl showed her boyfriend a side of herself she wishes she could take back. Bathroom involved. Shame involved.
James has found a new food obsession and immediately tried to redesign the supermarket experience around it. Naturally.
And we play our brand-new game… “Was I the D$CK?”

This week
I need to own up – I’ve come into some money. Finally hear the whole story.
Would you ever put your hands on a stranger? It could be a life or death situation – And James has been over thinking it all.
Liesl Chaos at the spa… The steam room was where it all properly kicked off! But she maintains it’s all the retired accountant’s fault
And I’ve got an idea for a film. It’s kind of ‘Stranger Things’ meets ‘Back To The Future’ meets ‘YOUR childhood’. It’s genuinely the best idea I have ever come up with! But has it got legs? - You decide. And then you can be in it!
If you’ve been a long-time listener to the show, will you feature in the Wall of Fame Song?
There’s Throwback HALLAMSTER - and his love for Oprah!

This week:
Conversations we couldn’t have had on the radio. Starting with Big John asks a very personal question about his body – is it normal and why does it happen? We’re going deep on this one.
James has been over thinking again. This time he is calling out something that is happening on YOUR road right now. He’s identified it. But do you agree with him?
Liesl keeps being asked a very dark question by her son. Just what is he planning?! And how would you respond?
If you’ve been a long-time listener to the show, will you feature in the Wall of Fame Song?
There’s Throwback HALLAMSTER - and his love for Oprah!

Big John’s MRI results are finally in… but what exactly did the scan reveal? And why did Liesl react the way she did when she saw it?
Meanwhile, Liesl’s latest bit of chaos ends with her begging the school to send a message to every parent. But was it actually her fault… or can she wriggle out of this one?
Plus, why James can’t walk properly. Entirely self-inflicted. Entirely ridiculous.
And we surprise Liesl on the show with someone she hasn’t spoken to in years for her birthday… and it is hilarious!

Your weekly catch-up with Big John, Liesl and James off the radio...
Big John -
So last summer… The job stopped. After 25 years. Just like that. Everything stopped. Routine… gone. Show… gone. And for a bit… I just stood still. Then we brought the show back. On smart speaker and as a podcast! But deep down, I knew something else needed to change, Because if I didn’t, it never would. A much bigger change for me. But am I making the right decision ?
Also on the show:
James has DELIGHTED his wife – by saying just one word. What’s the word? It leads to us inventing a thing called ‘Wife Hacks’
Liesl has posed the BIG QUESTION. And we end up talking about her funeral!
Coffee Girl - Friday Song - Gospel of Good Vibes!
