In Episode 140, Ron joins us as we jump straight into a deep conversation around the Iran & Israel situation, sparked by Diary of a CEO. From there, the conversation quickly shifts into classic People Like Us territory.
We somehow end up talking about the Strait of Hormuz having Google reviews, what guava actually is, and then move into real life stories — from football injuries and near misses, to unbelievable food at Hickory’s Smokehouse.
There’s also a genuinely scary moment involving a dog and a river, plus one of Ron’s most embarrassing childhood swimming stories. We round things off with nostalgia about growing up, lying as kids, getting our first TVs, and predictions for the 2026 World Cup and Grand National.

North East boxer Steven “Disney Drago” Robinson returns to the podcast after a difficult period in his life.
In this episode Steven talks about a recent misunderstanding that escalated far beyond what he expected and is currently being handled through the appropriate legal process. The experience left him shocked and reflective about how quickly situations can develop.
We also discuss his recovery from elbow surgery, preparing for his next fight, and the discipline required to stay focused during uncertain times.
The conversation moves into social media culture, viral controversies and how quickly stories can grow online, before Steven shares the emotional impact of losing a close friend to terminal illness at just 25.
A powerful and honest conversation about resilience, perspective and moving forward.

Ron joins us again and this episode starts mid-conversation as he tells us about his recent 25/1 win on the horses, which leads into a discussion about the Cheltenham Festival, the Aintree Grand National, and whether horse racing is becoming more popular with younger audiences.
We then dive into a mix of topics including high intelligence and memory, the strange time during Covid when GCSE grades were predicted, and the debate around Zoom calls and working from home.
As the conversation continues we get into summer arriving in the UK, sunbeds, fancy dress parties, movies that shaped our lives, and what we believe are some of the greatest acting performances ever.
Later we talk about cruise holidays, the fear of the ocean (thalassophobia), and Dan’s genuinely scary experience waking up alone on the front of a boat which explains where his fear of deep water started.
We finish by debating whether we would rather live our current lives or become pirates, before briefly discussing the current situation in Iran and how unpredictable the world can feel right now.

Dan kicks off this episode with a creepy story about strange noises in his home and a moment in bed that genuinely shook him. Ron shares his fear of sleep paralysis before the conversation shifts to Obama’s recent comments about extraterrestrial life.
We then dive into the UK’s new food waste bins and question what on earth we’re meant to do with rotting food sitting in plastic for two weeks. The episode also explores the recent situation involving Prince Andrew, King Charles’ response, and whether sovereign immunity really protects the monarchy from arrest.

We might be in a guest crisis… but at least we can all agree Velcro in secondary school was a social disaster.
Episode 133 opens with a public service announcement — we’re officially struggling for guests. If you’ve got a story, experience or something to say, reach out and come chat with us.
From there, we dive into one of the most divisive debates yet: the worst shoes ever made. Ron relives the horror of wearing Velcro trainers in his first year of secondary school, and the chaos that followed. We also get into aimless outfits, whether suits are becoming obsolete, the rise of baggy joggers, Lidl trainers, and what to wear to an 80s/90s themed party.
A nostalgic, chaotic and surprisingly passionate episode about fashion, growing up and social survival.
