In this episode, Smith & Mayhew get brutally honest about the chase for validation — whether it's through shredded photo shoots, over-sharing on social media, or pretending a banana and water bottle make you better than everyone else in the gym. The lads dive into how ego and low self-esteem often masquerade as ambition, how social media fuels performative behaviour, and why that “perfect” body pic might just lead you straight to a box of Krispy Kremes and an existential crisis.

WARNING: If you’re the kind of guy who films the whole concert instead of watching it, Smith & Mayhew might have a few words for you. 🎤📱
