Man Like You with Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé & Eddie Kadi

“Stop crying before I give you something to cry about.” But… I’m already crying! 😂Actor, writer and producer David Ajao joins Mo Gilligan and Babatunde Aleshe to unpack the things our parents said that made absolutely no sense—and the advice we only understood once we grew up.From Nigerian childhood punishments to Baba having to pay to get his own shoe back at his wedding, the stories keep coming. Mo gets roasted for thinking quiche was posh, Arsenal memories turn into a passionate rant, and the boys debate whether using an umbrella can really give someone the ick.David also shares how he helps Mo and Baba write comedy that sounds like them—and why one word can make all the difference to a joke.What saying did you ALWAYS hear growing up? And what’s the most ridiculous ick you’ve come across?

Tez Ilyas brings his top five sportspeople to Man Like You… and the room is not ready for Kurt Angle. 😂 Blackburn’s own joins Mo Gilligan, Eddie Kadi and Babatunde Aléshé to talk working at the Home Office, an auntie who only wanted immigration favours, and the comedy gig where he’d rather have been heckled. Then it’s into the things adulthood promised but never delivered, a South Asian food ranking that needs defending, and the fashion brands the boys want back. Add an outrageous shoe roast and Mo asking Tez to “name the breads”, and nobody’s getting through this one quietly. Does Kurt Angle deserve a place in a top five?Which old-school fashion brand needs a comeback?Get involved in the comments.

Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi are back around the table for Episode 50 — and somehow a simple conversation turns into a full-scale attack on airlines, dating, holidays and the little things people do that drive us MAD. 😂Mo has finally had enough of airport behaviour — from people crowding the baggage carousel to “speedy boarding” that isn’t speedy at all — while the boys ask what they’d abolish if they had unlimited power for 24 hours.Then things get dangerously honest: what would first dates actually sound like if men told the COMPLETE truth? 😂 Budgets are being calculated, starters are being cancelled and somebody needs to make sure the date finishes before Uber prices kick in.Plus, the boys debate overrated holiday destinations, dream trips to Japan, Rio, Cuba, Congo and Nigeria, and start cooking up an idea that genuinely needs to happen… a Man Like You travel show. 👀🌍

Nearly a year of Man Like You… and somehow things have only got more unhinged. 😂Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi look back at some of the funniest, wildest and most unforgettable moments from the podcast so far — including the jokes that went completely off the rails, the innocent comments that turned into all-time roasts and the moments you lot absolutely cooked us for in the comments.From Mo desperately wanting Eddie’s Congolese dance moves, the legendary Vaseline debate, Eddie admitting he just loves riding his bike, Guvna B fighting for his life trying to say “acronym”, Mo confidently inventing a new meaning for “parallelogram”, Remi Burgz discovering how you actually pronounce “debris”… and, somehow, the boys ending up singing Spice Girls together. 😭But amongst all the madness, the boys also reflect on what the podcast has become — the conversations about friendship, faith and life, the incredible reaction from everyone watching around the world, and why simply being themselves has connected with so many people.What’s YOUR favourite Man Like You moment so far? 👇Drop it in the comments — we genuinely want to know.👍 Like💬 Comment📲 Share🔔 Subscribe for more Man Like You

This week on Man Like You, Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi are back with another conversation that somehow goes from professional fighters and getting punched in the face… to Velcro, missing underwear, robot Hoovers and why Baba absolutely hates hypothetical questions.The boys ask what everyday thing could disappear tomorrow and completely break society? Sat nav? Contactless payments? Fridges? Dogs?! What starts as a simple question quickly descends into classic Man Like You chaos — including the terrifying prospect of a world without clothes.But amongst the madness, things get deeper as the boys ask: what actually makes a man respected? Is it money and status, or is real respect built through leadership, consistency, boundaries, vulnerability and simply being someone people can rely on? They also unpack why showing emotion can still be difficult for men — particularly Black men — and why vulnerability can sometimes command more respect than trying to appear tough.There’s also a brilliantly relatable conversation about fatherhood and making the effort even when you’re exhausted — from playing I Spy for the hundredth time to realising that sometimes your child doesn’t want another toy, they just want your attention and participation.And finally: what do you do when someone remembers you… but you have absolutely no idea who they are? The boys share their tactics, disasters and painfully awkward moments forgetting names — including being expected to remember someone they last met 16 years ago.Funny, honest, thoughtful and completely off the rails in places — basically, another episode of Man Like You.Like, subscribe and get involved in the comments: what makes you respect someone, and what’s one random everyday thing you genuinely couldn’t live without?

This week on Man Like You, Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi are back around the table — and this one goes from deep to completely ridiculous in record time.Fresh from the release of his Netflix documentary, Mo opens up about what the experience really did to him behind the scenes — from eating fried chicken every day to the loneliness, emotional breakdowns and moments that pushed him into some seriously dark places. The boys talk vulnerability, showing a different side of yourself to the world, and what happens when a project changes you more than you expected.Then the conversation turns to where it all began. Why did they choose comedy? What made them take the risk and bet on themselves? And after years in the game, what is it about performing that still gives them a feeling they can’t find anywhere else?They also get into male friendship as you get older — whether grown men can still have a “best friend”, the different roles your closest boys play in your life, making new friends in your 40s, and the people who become more like brothers than mates.And because it’s Man Like You, somehow all of that sits alongside Baba’s now-infamous neck, getting older, dodgy knees, godfathers, first-date restaurants, Wagamama memories and an alarming amount of detail about Mo’s digestive system.Funny, vulnerable and very, very honest — this is the boys at their best.

What did we love most about being kids — and what do we wish someone had taught us before we grew up?This week on Man Like You, Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi are taking it all the way back. From six-week summer holidays, sleepovers and birthday money mysteriously disappearing into Mum’s pocket, to IKEA feeling like a genuine day out, old-school minicabs, skinny jeans and the forgotten TV shows that defined a generation.We also ask: What are the important conversations every father should have with his son?Money, heartbreak, failure, looking after yourself, confidence and preparing your children for a world they don’t fully understand yet — the boys share the lessons they had to learn the hard way and the ones they hope to pass on.And, naturally, it all ends with a battle over forgotten ’90s and 2000s television that gets VERY competitive.Another Episode not to be missed!
