147: The O2 Show Debrief!

Fresh off the back of the O2 (and yes, we actually pulled it off), we’re debriefing all the highs and lows. From Sam hiding in fear to screens breaking and zero run-throughs, it was pure chaos… but somehow we smashed it and even picked up a seventh world record along the way. We also can’t not talk about Pete and Jowita’s big dance ending. A massive thank you to everyone who came, supported, and to all our brilliant guests for making it such a night to remember.


And moving on from the O2, it’s straight into the Staying Relevant book. Pete reveals some exciting potential plans, and there may even be a chance to meet us in real life soon, so keep your eyes peeled.


MAFS UK is back, which sparks the question of what Pete and Sam would actually want in a future wife. And after Molly-Mae revealed that baby Bambi has started saying she wants to bite people, we put our own parenting skills to the test by imagining how we’d handle Olive and Rose if they suddenly wanted to bite other kids.

  • The boys’ secret lives…

    35:15|
    The Bank holiday weekend is incoming, so the boys kick things off with their plans… Then it takes a turn. Conspiracy theories. Of course Sam’s got a few up his sleeve, including the moon landing, but surprisingly Pete also comes in with one of his own… aliens. Yep. Pete believes in them…we didn’t see that one coming. From there we chat what their alter egos would be with the Hannah Montana 20th anniversary airing. We then wrap things up with listener questions. Do the boys have a party trick each? Pete absolutely refuses to participate, while Sam fully leans in and reveals a trick no one was ready for. And finally, the big one… would they go back or forward 20 years? Which leads to a deeper question, will they actually be friends forever… and does that include Pippa?! —📩📮 To get in touch with the podcast, email hello@srproductions.co.uk (great e-mail, we know)—🏆 Exciting news!

  • Pete responds to his viral moment

    35:26|
    Sam is officially back from vocal rest, which means the silence is over though he’s returned more whispering than we expected. We get the full debrief including a slightly embarrassing hospital story he probably wishes he could forget.We also chat about Toy Story’s Woody’s possible hair loss, Sam might not be the only one in trouble. Then there’s Pete, responding to the viral clip where Joe Marler couldn’t believe he’s only 37. It turns into a full-on Pete rant at the trolls in the comments…watch out he’s coming for you. There’s also a nightclub with a 6ft and over entry policy. Neither Sam nor Pete makes the cut so of course we had to get their thoughts on the strict height rules.Plus Sam and producer Pippa are tackling a half marathon. Don’t worry you won’t be left out entirely. Keep your eyes peeled, you might get the chance to run along with us at some point….Learn more about Bemorefab here: https://bemorefab.co.uk/—📩📮 To get in touch with the podcast, email hello@srproductions.co.uk (great e-mail, we know)—💌 Sign up to our newsletter for exclusive updates, behind-the-scenes content, and first access to announcements: https://staying-relevant-newsletter-04a632.beehiiv.com—🩶 Follow us on Instagram | TikTok | Youtube | @stayingrelevantpodcast—🎬 Follow SR Productions on Instagram for more from the team: https://www.instagram.com/stayingrelevantproductions/—📚 ORDER the Staying Relevant Book:https://linktr.ee/StayingRelevantBook—🛍️ SHOP Staying Relevant Merchandise here: https://www.stayingrelevantmerchandise.com/—And of course...make sure to subscribe, follow, rate and review!
