This week Kevin and PJ are chatting about letting hobbies stay as hobbies and not turning every interest into a side hustle. They also admit that just because something is homemade does not automatically mean it is good. While they may host a comedy podcast, the lads are keen to remind everyone that when it comes to shoots, they do in fact serve glamour.

For the theme, they run through their Tops of the Year, covering everything from internet searches and music to Grindr tags and share what stood out to them most. They would also like to apologise to Kingfishr and their fans and would like to invite the boys to come on the podcast if they're not too busy.

This week Kevin announces that he will not be putting up a Christmas tree in London, insisting he is done being the one who returns home first in January only to face the depressing task of taking down all the decorations alone. PJ immediately brands him a Scrooge, though Kevin maintains it is simply self-preservation. He also has a gripe to air about retail websites that promise ten percent off if you sign up to their newsletter, only to withhold the discount code for a full twenty-four hours, long after the impulse to buy has died.

Because the lads feel there is far too much pressure to have a picture-perfect Christmas, they invite listeners to send in their own festive disasters. From uncooked turkeys to festive infidelity, they want to remind everyone that no one’s Christmas is flawless and we can all take comfort in the chaos together.

PJ rants about the devastation he experiences living in an apartment block and coming home to a mountain of parcels and getting all excited only to discover none are for him. The lads also share their thoughts on Wicked: For Good, with Kevin unable to move past Elphaba wearing an Anthropologie knit cardigan during the only sex scene in the whole film.

For the theme, Kevin and PJ dive into the current Celtic revival, chatting about the surge in love for CMAT, Fontaines D.C., claddagh motifs and the sudden obsession with “splitting the G.” While they adore seeing people embrace their Irishness, they cannot help but worry that the hype might be more trend than tradition.
