Episode 16 : Awards and Celeb Drama
Mark and Paul kick off with damp garden-furniture chaos, pillboxes, and the cruel reality of entering your 40s: new ailments weekly, endless supplements, and airport security side-eye. Then it’s a proper catch-up: their “healthy era” (two meal-replacement shakes and a HelloFresh… don’t do it)…

Hot Take 15 : An Irish Summer
Mark and Paul are back and immediately spiralling over one thing: their phones are absolutely listening. Amber Riley, Glee, and an Instagram reel that knows a bit too much… suspicious. Then it’s Hot Take time: summer in Ireland. The lads chat summer working hours (or lack thereof), cracking open…
more -
Episode 15 : Skinny Queens & Wellfest
Mark and Paul are back home, back on the mics, and already fighting for their lives: terrible roads, anxiety-inducing cornering, and Mark’s ongoing “can’t drive in the dark” situation (glasses on, drama on). Paul’s algorithm has served him a new obsession: Boy Bands in the Buff, starring Gareth...
-
Hot Take 14 : Met Gala Madness
Mark and Paul are back in holiday mode (but also somehow “workity work”) and diving headfirst into Met Gala madness — yes, Mark keeps calling it the Met Ball, and yes, Paul is absolutely having none of it. They break down what the Met Gala actually is (the money, the tables, the intern tickets…
more -
Episode 14 : Live From Portugal
Mark and Paul are recording straight from their hotel room in Portugal (Alvor) — slightly overcast, very rosé-fuelled, and with Mark rocking a husky “I’m sick again” voice. Booked, blessed and busy… but still somehow on an all-inclusive. They break down the most chaotic Ryanair flight of all…
more -
Hot Take 13 : Holiday Intentions
Mark and Paul are back with Penny content straight off the bat: an AI “Puerto Rico” Eurovision-y earworm, a lip-sync moment on TikTok, and the ongoing saga of Penny loving the garden… while also gaining the confidence to pee in her own bed. Then it’s holiday mode, because as you’re listening...
-
Episode 13 : Love Notes, Weekends Away & Gas Gals
Mark and Paul are back with “feedback from the peeps”, a debate about their most-used catchphrase, and a full breakdown of the “wine consent” question (plus the takeaway mind games that come with it). Also: Sabrina Carpenter x Madonna chat, and why Madonna’s marketing team are working overtime....
-
Hot Take 12 : Why Is Adulting Hard
Mark and Paul kick off with pure ship-life nostalgia: the dream of being a singer for the private cabin, the “mini magician” onboard, and the genuinely unhinged memory of drunkenly demanding Peter the Magician fetch the rabbit for the entertainers’ mess. Then it’s time for hardcore adulting.…
more -
Episode 12 : Influencer Rich List, Coachella Surprises & PR Sellers
Mark and Paul are back with cuts on the hands, boxes everywhere, and Paul’s ongoing battle with packaging (Stanley blade included). There’s also a serious investigation into the “Sol de Janeiro hand sanitiser” mix-up, and a garden update that’s this close to giving main character energy. Mark is...
-
Hot Take 11 : Coachella Chaos
Paul and Mark kick off this Hot Take with Coachella. They unpack festival madness, influencer backlash, insane prices (hello $34 pizza slice), and the absolutely dystopian Revolve gifting suite where people are hauling out five bags of freebies. Plus: iconic outfits, Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter...
-
Episode 11 : Turn Troubles Into Bubbles
Mark and Paul are back with a very “we’re old now” episode: lazy weekends, early nights, champagne as a lifestyle choice, and the mystery of how you can take 47 supplements and still feel like you’re slowly dying. Penny’ has new demands, and the flower-arranging chaos nobody asked for. Then it’s...
-
Hot Take 10 : We are 1 Year old!
It’s the one-year anniversary of the pod and Mark & Paul are taking a moment to bask: 200,000 listens across Spotify and Apple, thank you very much. Naturally, it starts with grief over the new format… because there’s no wine. Cue plans for a weekly wine review, a discount code mission, and “Wine...
-
Episode 10 : Bed Runners, Buffet Wars & a Glass Bathroom Door
Mark and Paul are back from Portugal and somehow still recording like absolute professionals. Expect holiday debriefs, airport rage (why is it everyone’s first day on Earth?), a surprise “transfer” in a Volkswagen Polo, and the chaos of Easter weekend travel. They deep dive into their Carvoeiro...
-
Hot Take 09 : Unpopular Opinions
Mark’s wrapped in his “sickness blanket” and barely holding it together, while Paul is one minor texture issue away from trying to “level up” the entire house. Add Penny wedged between them on the couch, and you’ve got the perfect setup for this week’s Hot Take: Unpopular Opinions. They get into...
-
Episode 09 : Blood Pressure, Bad Plaster & a Stolen Rake
Mark and Paul are back on the Glow Home Pod and it’s officially a “he’s sick” special: throat infection, two styes, the return of H. pylori, and (breaking news) blood pressure meds. Welcome to 40. There’s also a Portugal trip on the horizon… with an event install waiting on the other side…
more -
Hot Take 08 : Childhood Movie Chaos: Free Willy to Clueless
It’s a bonus Hot Take and we’re starting exactly where we always do: a song stuck in someone’s head, a suspiciously tiny HelloFresh bag, and a massive mystery “celery” that nobody trusts. Also: why is March nearly over already, where is the pause button for this year, and how many birthdays can…
more -
Episode 08 : Mr. Rogers, Fake Plasterers & Celebs gone Wild!
Back in the studio and the vibes are feral: the blinding “content light” is officially cancelled, Mark is horizontal on the couch, and Paul’s fresh in the door after a weirdly aggressive driver… plus a father casually handing a child a fully peeled banana at the traffic lights. Big life admin…
more -
Hot Take 07 : Bad Service, Soggy Chips & Cocktail Snobs
It’s a “Hot Take” and it starts with chaos: a dinner near home that was usually a safe bet… until the service (and the soggy reheated chips) had the us questioning if we’re turning into bitter old gay men. Then it’s straight into the real drama: Paul has fully lost the run of himself with the...
-
Episode 07 : Irish Mammy Magic, Crisp Wars & St Paddy
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, babes and yes, we’re leaning ALL the way in. From Penny’s full attention-seeker era (and the great crate-training trauma) to Mark being proudly Irish while Paul tries to keep up with the Hollywood Irish uprising: Jessie Buckley, Cillian, Barry, Mescal… the lot. We get…
more -
Hot Take 06 : Forever Friends
Mark has a full-on outfit panic ahead of tomorrow’s all-day press event in Brown Thomas… and secretly smuggles a haul under the stairs. Cue: a sheer canary-yellow shirt, a yellow jumper, white jeans (not cream), a “poo brown” co-ord, and absolutely no clue what shoes go with any of it. Then we…
more -
Episode 06 : Garden Glow Ups, Logistical Nightmares and KPOP Wars
No guest this week (because… logistics, double-booking and recording in the depths of the night), but we are HERE. Mark’s been hustling a bit too close to the sun, Paul’s being suspiciously supportive, and there’s a chaotic travel plan brewing: Berlin press trip straight into Lyon for a 40th……
more -
Hot Take 05 : Adults Only 🚫
After a quick detour into Eurovision lore (Delta Goodrem! “Espanavision”! Linda Martin airport insanity), we get into the real Hot Take: adults-only spaces. Are they anti-kids… or “pro-environment”? We’re talking kid-free dinner slots, spa zones, the infamous “grey area” wristband holiday drama,...
-
Episode 05 : Unpacking Bags, Paving Slabs, Near Murder
It’s been a DAY, but we’re still here recording because we love you guys (and because there’s way too much to unpack). Penny’s doing “missy pissy pants” laps to the toilet, the world feels a bit… terrifying, and we’re sending love to Maeve while she’s stranded in Dubai (thriving, but still). We...
-
Hot Take 04 : Barcelona Bits
Mark’s 40th celebrations go international as we recap the Barcelona Bonanza from start to finish. Think airport “responsible” drinks, Dublin lounge dramas (book in advance, babes), and Siobhán somehow forgetting her suitcase the minute we land. We check into the Social Hub (cheap, gorgeous,...
-
Episode 04 : At Home Drunk with Lisa & Kyra
Mark’s 40th birthday is officially underway… and the chaos is immediate. Penny’s on the (forbidden) wet food, everyone’s had “responsible” champagne (define that how you like), and Lisa and Kyra have been smuggled into the house for a surprise that spirals fast. We attempt “40 things we love…
