Why You Shouldn’t Give 1-Star for Your Own Bad Luck 🌟🚫

from Empty Nest Full Banter · host Jo n Stu

This week at the kitchen table, Jo and Stu are back doing what they do best: talking absolute nonsense and somehow making it make sense. We kick things off by tackling the eternal misery that is January (apparently it’s the 45th… still), complete with Gerald making a return to represent the trudge. There’s also a serious(ish) discussion about glasses, maturity, and whether wearing specs is the only thing keeping things vaguely responsible. Then things spiral—as they do—into another round of reviewing reviews. From baffling condom reviews that raise more questions than answers, to a bedside table apparently made with paper drawers (paper drawers?!), Jo brings her “creative facts” and Stu tries, valiantly, to ground us in reality. Elsewhere, we debate what people even call a sat nav these days, get distracted by TV chat, and generally prove once again that leaving us unsupervised at the kitchen table is never a good idea. If you enjoy husband and wife banter, British podcasts, empty nest life, relatable couples chat, and conversations that go wildly off track but somehow still make sense, you’re in the right place. 🎙️ New episodes every Friday 👍 Like, subscribe, and drop a comment — especially if you’ve ever left (or read) a completely ridiculous 1* review 🪑 Pull up a chair and join us at the kitchen table TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Coming up 00:42 Intro 01:19 Unfair and Hysterical 1* Reviews 11:42 Jo's in trouble for abusing cables 13:19 We have our first troll 13:48 Sebastian update 14:11 Jo disagrees with the Satnav 17:53 Bed problems 19:46 Traitors review 23:25 What we thought of Hijack (spoiler we loved it!) 25:27 We watch some very funny video clips 📺 Subscribe for new episodes! 📲 Follow us on socials Instagram instagram.com/emptynestfullbanter Facebook facebook.com/emptynestfullbanter #EmptyNestFullBanter #EmptyNest #Podcast #comedypodcast #BritishHumur #OneStarReviews
