Let's Actually Get Vulnerable
This week, the boys are joined by one of their best mates, Liam, who shares a truly rattled story from their time filming Impractical Jokers, involving a prank gone too far, a very public apology, and the worst possible person to witness it. Then, in a rare turn, things get real. The boys sit down with producer Lulu for a bit of an unexpected therapy session - opening up about anxiety and panic attacks, Falcs’ confidence, and what it’s actually like trying to be best mates and work together. Then a pivot to listener DMs, and they are unhinged. LINKS : Follow…

Life Lessons With Hamish Blake
Hamish Blake is in the studio this week and comes in hot with a rattled story about his pre-golf nerves, affirmations, and one very unfortunate text that was never meant to be sent. Then, things get practical. Jack calls Falcs out for being physically unable to say no to anything. So Hamish steps in to coach him on the art of saying "no". The boys give Hamish a few fake scenarios to test just how good he is at making up excuses on the spot. And of course, we couldn’t let him leave without getting involved in your DMs - from the best way to pull a sickie, to what to do when the feelings…

We Opened The Vault Again
It’s finally time to step back into The Vault . The boys properly unload their petty frustrations, minor inconveniences and things that shouldn’t matter but absolutely do. As expected, it gets out of hand quickly, with Falcon yelling into the mic a lot. Falc also has a full-blown parenting crisis… except it’s about his dog. He can’t seem to discipline at all, can’t sleep, and the dog has absolutely destroyed Jack’s room. Is this proof he’s nowhere near ready to be a Dad? Finally, the DMs. This week: Gen Z slang that makes no sense, dealing…

Then Lulu (Sarah) grills the boys on what they’ve actually been doing for the past two years - from travels to medical dramas to airport nightmares and nightmare hangovers.

Dedicated to The Enhanced Games
The boys have plenty of questions to ask Aussie Olympic Swimmer James Magnussen after finding out he plans to compete in 'The Enhanced Games'. Set to take place in 2025, it will pretty much be like the Olympics if the Olympics were to allow performance-enhancing drugs. Next up, Jack and Falcs laugh over the many listener submissions received after using the phrase 'none of my business'. Finally, they're overdue for an honest heart-to-heart and so the boys turn to a card game 'We're Not Really Strangers' to help them get deep.
