Summary

We’d just come off the back of the O2 (well… technically, we recorded this before it happened), so by the time you’re listening it either went down as the best night ever or completely t*ts up.

Sam’s mullet is the talk of the town, but the big question is whether he’s finally ready to say goodbye to it. Meanwhile, Pete admits he once rocked a full-on skinhead.

With autumn rolling in, we’re chatting UGGs, pumpkin spice lattes and Sam’s highly questionable Halloween outfit.

Since it’s the start of uni season, we imagine what kind of students we’d have been if we’d actually gone and whether we’d have even been friends. To top it off, Pete roleplays meeting a uni girlfriend’s parents, which leads to a few stories from past encounters with girlfriends’ families.

I'm just saying that most people who use a screen at work are entitled to free eye care. Tell your boss to look into

1:40.0	Don't even get me started the choreography. Now that is complicated.
1:43.6	Not quite where I was headed with this, but yes, TikTok dances are complicated, especially when you're involved.
