  • 138 - Mixed Martial Arts to Field Hockey
    2025/08/18

    In this episode, Adam and Kyle pick up where they left off, diving deeper into the world of mixed martial arts. They reflect on the evolution of MMA, the rise of multi-skilled fighters, and the challenges of making it in the sport. From nostalgic nods to UFC legends like Chuck Liddell and Georges St-Pierre to wild ideas for reinventing fight formats, it’s a passionate and playful discussion.


    The conversation then takes a sharp turn into the world of niche and underappreciated sports. The duo debate the practicality of javelin, the absurdity of hammer throw, and the surprising brutality of field hockey. Along the way, they share personal stories of knockouts, rugby injuries, and even a few golf swings gone wrong.


    It’s a fun, free-flowing episode that blends combat sports, schoolyard memories, and a healthy dose of sarcasm.

  • 137 - Football Hooligans to Mixed Martial Arts
    2025/08/11

    In this episode, Adam and Kyle dive into the gritty world of football hooliganism, exploring the culture of “firms,” their global reach, and the bizarre psychology behind fans who attend matches just for the fights. They compare the chaos of football crowds to the more respectful atmosphere of rugby games, questioning why violence seems so embedded in certain sports.


    The conversation then shifts into the realm of combat sports, as the hosts discuss the discipline and mindset of trained martial artists versus street fighters. They pitch a fresh take on MMA tournament formats, debate the value of knockouts versus submissions, and share personal experiences from live events, including a lightning-fast KO at an EFC match in South Africa.


    From football rivalries to cage fighting strategies, this episode is packed with insight, humour, and a few wild ideas for reinventing the fight game.

  • 136 - Soldiers to Football Hooligans
    2025/08/04


    In this lively and wide-ranging episode, Adam and Kyle are joined by Chinny from the Veteran Gamers podcast. The trio dive into nostalgic action films like Universal Soldier and Soldier, poke fun at Steven Seagal’s bizarre filmography, and explore the world of hilariously bad cinema with a deep dive into Neil Breen’s cult classics.


    They also chat about the rise of AI in creative industries, from generative art and video to voiceovers and ethical concerns. The conversation shifts into personal territory with stories about karaoke mishaps, musical hobbies, and the joys and challenges of parenting.


    Chinny shares his passion for snooker, including tales from his YouTube channel and the culture of snooker clubs across the UK. The episode wraps up with reflections on gaming trends, podcasting longevity, and the quirks of British and American culture.

  • 135 - Secret Agents to Soldiers
    2025/07/28

    Adam and Kyle pick up where they left off, continuing their dive into the world of spies and secret agents—complete with Bond riffs, Laser Quest memories, and musings on whether they’d survive as operatives (spoiler: probably not). From there, the conversation drifts hilariously through childhood nicknames, LEGO obsession, and the emotional complexities of adult toy-buying. Eventually, things take a more reflective turn, exploring gender identity, sports fairness, and society’s evolving views on education and responsibility. The episode closes with a nostalgic nod to 90s action movies and dystopian soldier training fantasies. As ever, it’s off-topic, on-brand, and weirdly thoughtful.

  • 134 - Fast Food to Secret Agents
    2025/07/21

    Adam and Kyle kick things off with more thoughts on fast food, breaking down Five Guys, KFC, and the frozen-meat conspiracy lurking behind McDonald's. That leads to an in-depth discussion on what defines “fast food” today, the art of burger prep, and Adam’s former life in professional kitchens—including how Michelin stars and AA Rosettes really work. Then things take a turn into the clandestine as they riff on spies, secret agents, and the real-world inspiration behind James Bond. From multi-passport Mormons to Operation Mincemeat, it’s a brilliant dive into food, espionage, and everything in between.

  • 133 - Sleep to Fast Food
    2025/07/14

    In this episode, Adam and Kyle dive deeper into the surreal world of sleep—from sleep talking and REM behaviour disorder to vivid dreams, sleep paralysis, and middle-of-the-night toilet dilemmas. They share hilarious and oddly relatable stories of flailing limbs, misdirected pee streams, and dream-state mishaps. As the conversation drifts into wellness and daily routines, they hit energy drinks, vitamins, and controversial court cases against Red Bull and McDonald’s. The episode closes with a critical (and comical) look at the state of fast food—questioning whether chains like McDonald's have lost their appeal in a world increasingly favouring local, independent options.

  • 132 - Apple to Sleep
    2025/07/07

    From tech nostalgia to bedtime philosophy, Adam and Kyle kick off this episode discussing the evolution of Apple—from colourful iMacs and the early iPhone days to overpriced VR headsets and whether Apple’s still innovating. That spirals into a broader chat about gaming culture, physical vs digital media, and the unexpected rise of “Power Wash Simulator.” Things then take a dreamy turn as the duo explore sleep: the weirdness of dreams, REM cycles, and the haunting possibility that life might just be one big VR game. Insightful, weird, and wonderfully off-track, this episode proves The Continuum can pivot from Steve Jobs to lucid dreams without missing a beat.

  • 131 - Stocks and Shares to Apple
    2025/06/30

    Adam and Kyle dive into the world of stocks, shares, and questionable investment advice in this episode of The Continuum. From 90s-era stock exchange chaos to BrewDog’s “membership disguised as shares” model, they unpack how the market works (or doesn’t), discuss the psychology of investing, and toy with the idea of becoming hedge fund managers—illegally or otherwise. The pair also debate Apple’s current state, its once-groundbreaking innovations, and whether it still leads the tech game post-Steve Jobs. Full of sharp observations, misguided entrepreneurial schemes, and a surprise callback to serial killers, this one’s a business masterclass—Continuum-style.
