Failing Better with Sean McLoughlin & Jonny Pelham

How To Speak To The Dead

Season 1, Ep. 19

Our intrepid hosts haven't had much luck getting help from the living so this week they're heading to the crypt to see if the dead can offer any solutions. In this exclusive guide to reaching the spirit realm you'll hear about Jonny's unfortunate interaction with a listener, Sean's catastrophic first date with his now-wife and get a full rundown of all the dumb ways you can pretend a ghost is on your street. Ghoul runnings.

    Sean got to play at a Premier League stadium with a bunch of professional footballers. Jonny laughs at the fallout.
  • 70. Maybe This Should Be A Blooper Ep?

    24:29
    A historically poor episode this week as the boys struggle to say anything interesting or funny. There are quite a few facts though for anyone thinking of entering a pub quiz in the near future.
  • 69. Jonny one Sean Naan.

    33:37
    In this episode we talk about football, institutional racism and Harold Shipman. It really does zig-zag all over the place in what critics are already calling another episode of Failing Better.
  • 68. Hinterlands

    28:49
    In this episode we discuss life in the pod hinterlands, do some shout outs and talk about a dressing down from our partners. Another classic episode of the podcast in a week where Kesha releases a new album. Tick Tock on the clock.
  • 67. Where's Wally (Featuring George Zach)

    38:57
    Another week, another guest star who appears on the podcast against their will. We also talk about dismantling the NHS, making a Where's Wally podcast and we do another 'Adam And Eve It'. Not bad.
  • 66. Pure Showbiz

    46:15
    Sean is back from America and tells Jonny about a few of the celebrities he met and some of the wild experiences he decided to run away from. Also it's the first edition of our new segment 'Adam and Eve It'. All in all probably the most star-studded episode we've ever done. 
  • 65. Live From Hollywood

    34:14
    Sean is in La La Land and Jonny is in Man Man Manchester. They talk weird billboard adverts in New York, scientology and Sean gets very nervous about guns. It's the most showbiz episode ever.
  • 64. An American Hello!

    46:36
    Sean’s jet-setting continues as he plans his trip to the city of Angels (LA). Sean reveals he has American citizenship, Jonny reveals his hatred of Portsmouth and they both question whether there is anything as funny as a novelty t-shirt.
