Ramune, Ramen & Reverse Talking Madness

from The Variety Show (with Tom and Rob)

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Tom and Rob are back with another packed Variety Show, and Episode 54 is full of music, ghosts, TikTok chaos and a feast of Japanese treats. 🎶 Music Contest Catch-Up – The podcast song contest rumbles on, but can the lads finally agree on the rules? Tom and Rob argue, negotiate and maybe bend things just enough to keep the competition alive. Expect laughs, debates and plenty of off-the-cuff music talk. 👻 Ghunt at Hitchin British Schools Museum – Tom braved the famously spooky classrooms of the British Schools Museum on his latest ghost hunt. From eerie corridors to haunted air raid shelters, he brings back chilling tales and paranormal chatter, while Rob provides the sceptical (and sarcastic) commentary. 🎧 TikTok Sleep Earphones – Can a pair of £3 sleep headphones from TikTok really be any good? Tom has tested them out and tries to convince Rob they’re worth the price. Expect tech chat, comedy digs and maybe even a shopping list update if Rob caves in. 🥤🍜 Japan Special Taste Test – The highlight of the show. Tom and Rob dive into a mountain of Japanese snacks and drinks, including fizzy marble-popping Hata Ramune sodas, a cola twist, and a surprise sparkling orange cola from China. On the snack side it’s crunchy Baby Star Crispy Ramen Noodles in a variety of bold flavours: classic Original, tangy Yakisoba, rich Tonkotsu and punchy Garlic. Sweet, savoury, fizzy and crunchy chaos all in one taste test. 🔄 TikTok Reverse Audio Trend – The Mini Chipmunk has spoken, and Tom and Rob are forced into another TikTok challenge. Can they really talk in reverse and make sense of it, or will it end in total nonsense and laughter? A ridiculous finale with guaranteed giggles.
