    Ep. 109 Do You Talk To Yourself? Science Says You're a Genius

    Get ready for another laugh-out-loud ride with Danny, James, Jake, and Rachel! We are back in the studio for Episode 109, and things are getting wonderfully weird and incredibly embarrassing.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake introduces us to a truly bizarre medical phenomenon from Hong Kong. A woman strained so hard on the toilet that she triggered Transient Global Amnesia, completely wiping the last 10 years of her memory for eight hours. We break down the dangers of the "Valsalva maneuver" and why your bathroom breaks should come with a hazard warning.In "Confessionals," James brings the heat with two utterly mortifying stories.• A listener tries to borrow their boyfriend's expensive charcoal face mask, only to discover after scrubbing it into their pores that it was actually the cremated ashes of his childhood hamster, Barnaby.• A woman fresh out of the bath panics and spends ten minutes aggressively beating what she thinks is a giant spider on her towel, before realizing it was just her own untrimmed pubic hair poking through a hole.We dive into the biological gutter for "Rachel's Furry Box" to ask: have you ever secretly enjoyed smelling your own fart?. The crew debates the safety of personal scents, the deadly lingering of a "shower fart," and James reveals his sinister trick of asking friends if they "smell popcorn" just as he lets one rip.In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel tackles the bizarre phenomenon of men forgetting important dates like birthdays and anniversaries. The boys defend their terrible memories by citing spontaneous "panic gifts," while Rachel points out the audacity of men who can remember random football stats from years ago but forget to book an anniversary dinner.Danny dives into the psychological depths for "What the FAQ?" to ask: is it normal to talk to yourself?. He explains how 96% of adults have an internal monologue, why speaking out loud is actually a sign of high intelligence and emotional regulation, and how "distanced self-talk" can help reduce anxiety.Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with some fresh tracks. This week we add "Human Nature" by Michael Jackson, "Pictures of You" by Drugdealer feat. Kate Bollinger, "Love Me Not" by Ravyn Lenae, and "The Mickey Dam" by Damien Dempsey.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

    Ep. 108 Japan’s Breeding Visa & The Plague Rat

    The crew is back for another round of absolute mayhem! We kick things off in "Have You Heard?" where Jake investigates a wild rumor about "breeding visas" in Japan. While that might be fake news, the real story is just as bizarre: the Japanese government is literally subsidizing Tinder Gold and matchmaking apps to fight the loneliness epidemic. Danny is ready to sign up for government-funded Grinder, while James and Rachel feel a bit "pimped out" by the idea of state-sponsored flirting.In "Confessionals," we hear two of the most skin-crawling stories in podcast history. First, a woman tries to rescue a "hairless kitten" in an alleyway, only to have the vet lock the door and call animal control because she’s been cuddling a mange-ridden city rat all night. Then, a guy tries to be the hero at a steakhouse by performing the Heimlich maneuver on an elderly woman, only to realize she wasn't choking—he just physically launched her 3,000-pound dentures across the restaurant and into an industrial bin."Rachel's Furry Box" gets a makeover this week! Danny has officially handed over the reigns (and the ginger hair), and we now have "Rachel's Furry Purse." It's portable, it's blonde, and it’s asking the big questions: Would you want to be famous? Jake wants the protection, Danny wants the red carpet, and James thinks Jake would end up as a Swedish recluse living in a castle with a bunch of cats.For "Boys Catch Yourself On," Rachel is calling out the "Hard Man" aesthetic. Why do men pose in photos like they’ve just been denied bail or are selling oregano behind a shop? From the shadow boxing in club toilets to the mysterious "gang signs," she wants to know why guys can't just smile for once.Finally, in "What the FAQ?", Danny is breaking down the anatomy of the fist. Why do our fingers look like a "mismatched boy band" that somehow transforms into a "perfect wall of violence" when you clench them? It’s the science of the scrap, and things get weirdly technical.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#MeetInTheMiddle #Podcast #IrishHumour #BritishHumour #ComedyPodcast #JapanDating #TinderGold #RatStory #HeimlichManeuver #Fame #DatingApps #Banter

    Ep. 107 Are Left-Handers Better in Bed? & Bizarre Pig Calling

    Get ready for another laugh-out-loud ride with Danny, James, and Jake! We are back in the studio for Episode 107 (missing our girl Rachel this week), and things are getting dangerously spicy and incredibly embarrassing.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake introduces us to the European Seagull Screeching Championship. It's a bizarre competitive sport in a Belgian pub where grown adults throw their heads back and aggressively mimic seagulls. We break down the unhinged performances, the nine-year-old UK prodigy known as "Seagull Boy," and somehow also uncover a pig-calling contest in Estonia.In "Confessionals," James brings the heat with two utterly mortifying stories.A drunk best man tries to be edgy during his speech with a joke about a lads' holiday in Magaluf, only to accidentally reveal the groom's past infidelity to the bride—prompting her to walk out and him to be escorted off the premises.A mother lets her autistic son walk to the shops alone to build independence, only to discover he has kidnapped a little person and locked them in the family garage like a stray cat.In "Rachel's Furry Box," Danny steps in to pull out a delightfully grim question: have you ever eaten anything off the floor? The boys debate the five-second rule, dropping a kebab on a night out, and James shares a horrific story about a friend sucking spilled wine directly off the concrete pavement.Danny dives into the biological gutter for "What the FAQ?" to ask: why are some people left-handed?. He explains "brain lateralization" and crossed wiring, breaks down the "fighting hypothesis" that makes lefties elite boxers, and reveals a wild study claiming left-handers are significantly more satisfied in the bedroom than right-handers.Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with some fresh tracks. This week we add "Things Are Looking Up" by Billy Lockett, "The River" by Daisy Jones & The Six, and "The Spins" by Mac Miller.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

    Ep. 106 I Exposed Myself to the Brides Granny!

    The gang is back and things are getting measurement-heavy! We kick things off in "Have You Heard?" where Jake reveals a London nightclub that’s strictly enforcing a 6ft height requirement for men. Is it a "Land of the Giants" dream or just blatant "Short King" discrimination? James has some very specific ideas about what the requirements for women should be, and let's just say, it involves a tape measure of a different kind.In "Confessionals," we dive into the most mortifying listener stories yet. From a "Rock the Boat" wedding disaster that left one guest completely exposed to his cousin's 80-year-old grandmother, to a beauty appointment that ended in a "deafening, trumpet-like" explosion of gas. It’s safe to say these listeners won’t be showing their faces (or other parts) in public for a while."Rachel's Furry Box" poses a somber yet delicious question: What would be your death row meal? Between 5-course gourmet steaks, Wexford sauce (which James is convinced doesn't exist), and James's plan to stay alive forever by ordering an all-you-can-eat buffet, the debate gets heated. Danny, meanwhile, thinks murderers should stick to bread and water.For "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel tries to call out the "five-minute" lie men tell before leaving the house. Is it a buffer? Is it a vibe? Or is it just a comforting fiction? The table turns pretty quickly when the boys point out that a woman's 20 minutes is actually a full hour of lip-gloss-induced trauma.Finally, in "What the FAQ?", Danny digs into the science and superstitions behind the itch. Why does your skin demand you scratch it until you look like you’ve fought a feral cat? Whether it's "pruritus" or just a cheap jumper, we're getting to the bottom of that tingling sensation.

    Ep. 105 A Hot Yoga Fart Disaster & The Country That Banned Crocs

    Get ready for another laugh-out-loud ride with Danny, James, Jake, and Rachel! We are back in the studio for Episode 105, and things are getting dangerously spicy and incredibly embarrassing.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake introduces us to the Republic of Slowjamastan. It's a self-declared micro-nation in the Southern California desert founded by a radio DJ who crowned himself Sultan. We break down their bizarre national laws, which include a strict ban on Crocs, mumble rap, speakerphone in public, and eating string cheese the wrong way.In "Confessionals," James brings the heat with two utterly mortifying stories.A guy tries to act macho on a first date by ordering "Thai spicy" noodles, only to rub his eyes with weapon-grade chili oil hands, trip over a table, and end up with the manager pouring full-fat milk directly into his open eyes.A hot yoga session in a sweltering, dead-silent room turns into a biological hazard when a listener unleashes a fart that sounded like a "heavy wooden chair being dragged across a wet floor," leaving the girl next to him dry-heaving.In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel tackles the bizarre phenomenon of men packing entire PlayStation consoles for their holidays. The boys defend bringing their gaming setups for a chill night in, while Rachel declares that traveling 2,000 miles to sit indoors and shout at a virtual referee is a massive red flag.Danny dives into the biological gutter for "What the FAQ?" to ask: why do we cry?. He explains the "globus sensation" (that nervous lump in your throat), breaks down the three types of tears, and reveals that emotional crying is basically your body taking a "stress p*ss out of your face".Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with some fresh tracks. This week we add "Step by Step" by Whitney Houston, "Feel the Real" by Fcukers, "Colour" by MNEK feat. Hailee Steinfeld, and "Where You At" by Dublin artist Abbie Coulibaly.Grab a drink, have a laugh, and join the madness!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

    Ep. 104 The Blue Waffle Hoax and Near Death Experiences

    Get ready for another wild ride with Danny, James, Jake, and Rachel! We are serving up another round of chaotic laughs and bizarre confessions in Episode 104.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake breaks down a new dating trend taking over London called "Date My Mate". Singles are officially ditching the apps and instead pitching their best friends to a pub full of strangers using full-blown PowerPoint presentations. Would you trust your best mate to present your love life on a projector?In "Confessionals," James reads two stories that will give you absolute second-hand embarrassment.•⁠ ⁠A listener brings a guy home for a hookup, only for his very bizarre "skip rat" dirty talk to be broadcast directly to her parents sitting in the car right below her open window.•⁠ ⁠Another listener tries to sneakily photograph a floral wreath at an open-casket wake. Unfortunately, their phone's 3-second timer and blinding camera flash go off in the dead silence, leading an aunt to ask if they are "taking a selfie with the corpse".We reach into "Rachel's Furry Box" for a surprisingly dark question this week: What is your most terrible memory?. We get vulnerable and share some intense life moments, including childhood near-drownings, severe falls down steel steps, and Danny's terrifying experience of being held at knifepoint.In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel demands to know why men refuse to use umbrellas in torrential rain. Do they think they're in a moody music video, or would they just rather arrive looking like a "wet dog that's lost a custody battle"?Danny takes on "What the Fact?" to uncover the truth behind "Blue Waffle". He breaks down the infamous 2008 internet hoax that traumatized a generation of teenagers, explaining how a bit of clever Photoshop created a fake STI myth.Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with some fresh tracks. This week we add "POP/STARS" by K/DA featuring Madison Beer, "I Need" by Clark Beckham, "Dance To You All Night" by Oran Murphy, and "Trade Places" by Jack Harlow.Grab a drink, have a laugh, and join the madness!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

    Welcome back to Meet in the Middle! We are bringing the chaotic energy for Season 6, Episode 103 with bizarre confessions, deep chats, and absolute hilarity.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake brings us Part 2 of the generational aging debate. This time, we look at Millennials and "Millennial Age Dysmorphia"—why do so many millennials still feel like they're 25? We discuss delayed life milestones, the pop culture bubble, and the reality check of getting older.In "Confessionals," James reads two stories that will give you absolute second-hand embarrassment.A listener traumatizes their dying Nan (and the entire silent ICU) by accidentally blasting a very loud, very explicit "Shrek" adult video from their phone.Another listener clogs the toilet at their girlfriend's dad's formal 60th birthday dinner, scoops the "evidence" into a decorative vase to hide it, and watches in horror as the aunt tips it into the sink in front of the whole family.We reach into "Rachel's Furry Box" for a highly personal question: Have you ever pissed yourself? We share our most embarrassing stories of childhood bed-wetting, laughing too hard, and drunken sleep accidents on friends' leather couches.In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel asks a serious question: Are men secretly self-conscious about their bodies? We have an honest, vulnerable discussion about male body dysmorphia, the dread of taking your top off on holiday, extreme crash diets, and the unrealistic pressures of social media.Danny takes on "What the Fact?" to answer a truly bizarre question from his search history: Can you milk a pigeon?Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with some fresh picks. This week we add Toni Braxton's R&B classic "Wasn't Man Enough for Me," the indie-dance vibes of "Jetstream Heart" by Temples, Jessie J's "Living My Best Life," and Wolf Alice's "Don't Delete the Kisses."Grab a drink, have a laugh, and join the chaos!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

    Ep. 102 Are Gen Z Aging Faster Than Millennials? & WhatsApp Disasters!

    Welcome back to Meet in the Middle!. We're diving into Season 6, Episode 102 with a packed lineup of chaotic laughs and bizarre confessions.First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake explores the raging online debate: Are Gen Zs aging faster than millennials?. We discuss how growing up fully online with constant social comparison and stress might be raising cortisol levels and breaking down collagen. Plus, we touch on beauty culture trends like preventative Botox and 18-year-olds shaving down their teeth for "Hollywood smiles," while millennials grapple with their own "age dysmorphia".In "Confessionals," we have some absolute near-death-by-embarrassment stories.A train ride goes horribly wrong when a friend opens a Safari tab to a very explicit video title.A listener ends a three-year friendship group in four seconds by accidentally sending a harsh voice note about a friend directly to their 8-person girls' night WhatsApp chat—while sitting two feet away from her!.But the absolute worst? A hungover listener trying to have some "tactical" private time during a family Sunday roast, only to realize their phone was Bluetooth-casted to the 65-inch living room TV in front of 12 silent relatives.We dive into "Rachel's Furry Box" to answer a divisive question: How early do you like to get to the airport?. The boys like to play it safe with two or three hours to spare for international flights, while Rachel shares a stressful story of having the "sweats" while barely making her flight out of Gatwick.In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel investigates why men will replay a single compliment in their heads for years. Jake admits he still remembers a backhanded compliment about weight loss, and the group agrees that men just don't get hyped up with compliments from their friends as often as women do.Danny takes over "What the Fact?" to explore the biological purpose of farting. Did you know the average person farts 14 to 20 times a day, and most of them happen while you're asleep?. We also learn that only 1% of a fart actually smells (hydrogen sulfide), they are highly flammable, and James is apparently in a "farts only" WhatsApp group where chatting is strictly forbidden.Finally, we update our Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack," with new picks. This week we add Bebe Rexha and Faithless's "New Religion," Metallica's "Enter Sandman," Boy Throb's "Can't Stop the Throb," and Aaron Rowe's "Please Don't Hate Me".Grab a drink, have a laugh, and join the chaos!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?

    Ep. 92 Anniversary Special: Two Years Deep and Still Unfiltered!

    Two years in and the gang are somehow still standing as James absolutely butchers the intro, everyone argues over who’s actually turned up for the most episodes and they realise the 100th isn’t far off. Jake kicks off Have You Heard with Tom Brady cloning his dog, sparking a full moral meltdown over science, souls and whether bringing back your pet is sweet or straight-up unsettling.Rachel then dives into Boys Catch Yourselves On and drags men who use 3-in-1 (and Jake’s cursed 5-in-1) shower gel, while Danny backs her up and James pretends he hasn’t packed a multipurpose bottle on trips. From there Danny’s What the FAQ unleashes “Malkinroot,” a feral old-school insult for someone who shags like they’re summoning spirits, which slides perfectly into a savage two year anniversary quiz that tests their memory on aliens, Big Brother secrets and Angelica Pickles. Finally James opens Confessionals and it gets properly filthy: a listener caught hiding in a lad’s wardrobe by his mum, a jalapeño pizza incident that set someone’s bits on fire and a bloody birthday hook-up that ended in dry-clean-only sheets.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop Specs, changing the way you buy eyewear.www.pop-specs.comIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#ComedyPodcast #IrishPodcast #BritishPodcast #MeetInTheMiddle #AnniversaryEpisode #PopSpecs #SpotifyPodcast #YouTubePodcast #PetCloning #WhatTheFAQ #BoysCatchYourselvesOn #FilthyHistory #SpicyConfessions #StorytimePodcast #FunnyClips #PodcastCommunity #TrendingPodcasts #NSFWComedy

    Ep. 91 Hoodies, Balls & Botox

    Back in their cosy home studios, the gang debrief a wild weekend: customs swabs, delayed flights and Danny accidentally sharing a plane with Cheryl Baker and Will Best while everyone else missed the memo. Celebrity Traitors gets a spoiler-heavy recap, Alan Carr’s big win gets surprisingly emotional and Jake wonders if event TV has officially resurrected. In Have You Heard, Jake dives into the cosmetic “arms race” down south with Scrotox for millennials and penis filler for Gen Z, while the others debate smooth bollocks, Coke-can girth and whether anyone is really inspecting balls that closely.In What the FAQ, Danny serves up the word cacoethes which is sadly not a difficult shite or having two minges stacked like a lasagne. Instead it’s the fancy term for the urge to do something stupid which perfectly explains drunk texts to exes, Zara sprees on Klarna and Jake thinking Hinge would help his mental health. Then Rachel’s Pendulous Riddles make a triumphant return in the Quiz with mirrors, eggs and fire, unhinged buzzers, scoreboard drama and Jake desperately trying to get on the board while James and Danny clean up.Confessionals go extra spicy with a Twitch special: walking in on three blokes in the kitchen mid “take this dick” then a cruise ship roommate whose sleep-apnoea snore is so violent it gets secretly recorded and weaponised. The gang weigh up petty revenge, shame and actual health risks before wrapping things up and inviting you to join them live on Twitch next time for more unfiltered madness, questionable decisions and deeply unserious life advice.⸻FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop Specs, changing the way you buy eyewear.www.pop-specs.comIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#meetinthemiddlepodcast #comedypodcast #ukpodcast #irishpodcast #spotifyvideo #scrotox #penisfiller #podcastconfessions #riddles #relationshiptalk #sleepapnea #twitchstreamer #britishhumour #irishhumour #popSpecs #funnyclips #podcastrecommendation #nsfwpodcast #videopodcast

    Ep. 90 LIVE from Belfast!

    Jake’s flown from Nottingham to Belfast (probably just for a Tinder match), Rachel’s still recovering from her weekend bender, James has turned up dressed like a homicidal clown, and Danny’s rolled in from Hastings faster than an EasyJet flight — yep, it’s another episode of Meet in the Middle!This week, Jake takes us on a wild one in Have You Heard? — the story of Karl Bushby, the man who’s literally been walking around the planet for 27 years. No flights. No cars. Just blisters and sheer stubbornness. The gang debate if they could even commit to walking to Tesco every day, never mind across continents. Then Rachel dives into Boys, Catch Yerselves On! and drags the lads for their abandoned online shopping baskets — turns out men treat their baskets like exes they can’t quite let go of.Danny resurrects another filthy gem in What the FAQ with the word “QUOZ” — 18th-century slang for someone acting like a total idiot (so, basically, modern Twitter). The quiz gets fiery — literally — in For Flip Sake thanks to @rockadoodledo Belfast Hot Sauce, before James closes the show with a trio of Confessionals that have us gasping, groaning, and weirdly emotional — from a coffee-stained carpet cover-up to a love confession sent to the wrong girl that somehow ended in marriage.⸻FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE.Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop Specs, changing the way you buy eyewear.www.pop-specs.comIntro and Outro: Living Kills – The Noise⸻#MeetInTheMiddlePodcast #ComedyPodcast #IrishPodcast #BritishPodcast #SpotifyPodcast #VideoPodcast #FunnyStories #PodcastHosts #WhatTheFAQ #HaveYouHeard #Confessionals #PodcastCommunity #DatingFails #RelationshipHumor #UKPodcast #IrelandPodcast #BelfastPodcast #NottinghamPodcast #DublinPodcast #HastingsPodcast #HotSauceChallenge

    Ep. 89 HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR

    The Halloween Special is here and it’s a full-on disaster from the start. James opens as Freddie Mercury reincarnated, Rachel looks as dead on the outside as she is on the inside, Jake argues about how to say “trick-or-treating” and Danny can’t stop peeling his fake skin off mid-recording. Somewhere in the middle of all that, we talk about our Belfast Meet-up, questionable costumes, and how Jake has never been trick-or-treating in his life.James kicks off the scares with Dublin’s haunted Kilmainham Gaol, setting the tone for the night. Rachel tries to tell her Crumlin Road Jail story but ends up in a full breakdown over the word “incarceration.” Danny and James LOSE IT and any hope of a serious ghost story dies instantly. Then the team share listener stories from haunted nightclubs, ghost kids running under streetlights in Florida and a few unexplainable UFO sightings over Belfast. Things wrap up with talk of haunted pubs, prison weddings and whether ghosts actually touch people — or just stick around for the craic.It’s haunted history meets total breakdown. Loud, ridiculous and somehow still one of our funniest episodes yet.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#HalloweenPodcast #MeetInTheMiddle #ComedyPodcast #GhostStories #IrishPodcast #BritishPodcast #HauntedIreland #HauntedBelfast #KilmainhamGaol #CrumlinRoadJail #HauntedPubs #TrueGhostStories #SpookySeason #HalloweenSpecial #UFOs #BelfastHauntings #HauntedNightclub #IndiePodcast #FunnyConfessionals #SpotifyPodcasts #GhostEncounters

    Ep.88 Fudgel, Hoarding & Why Hooters Tried to Fly

    This week on Meet in the Middle the crew takes flight with a deep dive into the rise and fall of Hooters Airlines, the short-lived American carrier that tried to combine air travel, entertainment and chicken wings. The hosts unpack how this bizarre concept ever got off the ground, what it says about early 2000s marketing, and how cultural attitudes toward gender and branding have changed since. It’s the kind of nostalgic, eyebrow-raising reflection that only this bunch could turn into pure comedy.From there, the conversation nosedives into the everyday chaos of modern life — specifically, cable hoarding. Why do so many of us keep drawers full of ancient chargers, mystery cables and dead tech we’ll never use? The group debates whether it’s hoarding, habit or just forward planning disguised as procrastination. There’s plenty of self-awareness, a few confessions and the usual back-and-forth banter that defines British and Irish humor at its best.Listeners also learn about the forgotten English word fudgel, meaning to pretend to work while doing nothing. Naturally, the hosts take it too far, confessing to their own expert-level fudgeling moments at work and at home. The discussion somehow leads to a mix of cultural commentary, relationship talk, and a brand-new quiz segment called Mix and Match, where logic and laughter collide.And just when you think it can’t get any wilder, one of the hosts drops a confession involving a mum and daughter that sends the room off the rails. It’s awkward, hilarious, and very Meet in the Middle — the kind of story that’ll make you laugh, cringe, and question your life choices all at once.Packed with personality, honest stories and proper laughs, this episode blends everything listeners love about Meet in the Middle: unpredictable conversations, sharp humor, relatable confessions and cultural commentary that somehow makes sense by the end. Whether you’re into nostalgia, British-Irish banter, workplace procrastination or outrageous storytelling, this one’s for you.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop-Specs – affordable stylish glasses you’ll actually want to wear.

    Ep. 87 Ed Gein, Taco Bell & Puppy Flashes

    This week intro kicks off with a wild opening chat that somehow blends serial killer Ed Gein with the inexplicable rise of marble racing on TikTok. It’s unsettling, hilarious, and exactly the kind of nonsense you’ve come to expect.Jake kicks off Have You Heard with the Taco Bell 50km ultra marathon, a race designed for people who enjoy both running and regret. Just as the story gets going, Danny decides to whip out his “puppies,” derailing everything in classic fashion. Danny then takes the mic for What the FAQ, diving into some truly weird body modification scenarios. The chaos ramps up with an Ed Gein quiz, and James finishes strong with confessionals that’ll make you laugh, wince, and question humanity.FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: ⁠[email protected]⁠Website: ⁠www.meetinthemiddlepod.com⁠Instagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#ComedyPodcast #MeetInTheMiddle #BritishPodcast #IrishPodcast #PopCulture #TrueCrime #EdGein #MarbleRacing #TacoBellMarathon #BodyModification #TopTenQuiz #FunnyConfessionals #PodcastChaos #UnfilteredHumour #SpotifyPodcasts #ComedyShow #PodcastMoments #JakeJamesDannyRachel #UKPodcast #IrelandPodcast #ViralPodcast

    Ep. 86 The Nod Code, Johatsu & Méchante Mysteries

    This week on Meet in the Middle the gang decodes the unspoken language of men, the mysterious nod code, and how it stacks up against women’s more direct social cues. What starts as a chat about everyday interactions quickly unravels into confessions, laughter and one of the most disgusting confessions in podcast history. You’ve been warned.From Johatsu, Japan’s real-life disappearing act, to the cultural roots of méchante and what it reveals about female sexuality, the conversation flips between smart social insights and absolute madness. The crew takes on burnout, shame, the urge to vanish from your digital footprint and still finds time for celebrity gossip, music games and some seriously questionable storytelling.It’s raw, hilarious and very human, a perfect mix of culture, confession and cringe you won’t want to miss.#Podcast #ComedyPodcast #IrishPodcast #BritishPodcast #CulturalReflections #Johatsu #NodCode #MaleCommunication #SocialInteractions #Méchante #PopCulturePodcast #Confessions #GrossStories #FunnyPodcastMoments #MostDisgustingConfessionMeet in the Middle PodcastFOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop-Specs – affordable stylish glasses you’ll actually want to wear.

    Ep. 85 w/Traitors IRL Ben Donohue

    The round table is set, the cloaks are ready, and this week Ben Donohue joins Meet in the Middle. A soldier in the Irish Defence Forces, a contestant on Traitors Ireland and for a time… a traitor. From a childhood in Dublin to life in the castle, Ben takes us inside a world where loyalty is fragile, suspicion spreads fast and breakfast could be your last meal at the table.We uncover the secrets behind his spontaneous audition, the alliances he forged and the moment he crossed from faithful to traitor. Ben reflects on family reactions, emotional challenges and the friendships that survived the game. He reveals the truth about round table banishments, life after elimination, and what it really means to live under the cloak.And in true Meet in the Middle fashion, we end with a ruthless Traitors Island quiz—because in this game, even your friends might be the ones to take you out.#MeetInTheMiddlePodcast #TraitorsIreland #BenDonohue #IrishDefenceForces #FaithfulOrTraitor #RealityTVPodcast #TraitorsIslandTrivia #LoyaltyAndBetrayal #BanishmentMeet in the Middle PodcastFOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop-Specs – affordable, stylish glasses you’ll actually want to wear.

    Ep. 84 Interview w/ TikTok's Squash

    This week we’re joined by special guest Squash, the TikTok creator taking social media by storm. From growing up as a twin to grinding on building sites before making the leap into full-time content creation, Squash shares his journey with humor, honesty and more than a few wild stories. We dive into sibling rivalry, the highs and lows of influencer life, gaming and streaming pressure, imposter syndrome, online harassment, brand deals, and why authenticity is the key to surviving the creator economy.It’s not all heavy, though—we get into childhood trauma, fast food horror stories, random trivia, and a rapid-fire round that proves Squash has as many one-liners as he does followers.

    Ep. 83 Shrekking Between The Sheets

    This week on Meet in the Middle, Jake kicks us off with a Gen Z dating trend that’s as tragic as it is hilarious — “Shrekking,” where people date someone less attractive hoping they’ll be treated better. Spoiler: it ends in tears and swamp gas. From Fiona fantasies to full-blown Black Mirror vibes, the gang tear this nonsense apart in true chaotic fashion.Then Rachel’s back with Boys, Catch Yourselves On, asking the age-old question: why are so many men apparently living like feral mattress trolls and refusing to change their bedsheets for months? Expect confessions of raw-dogging mattresses, Pooh Bear sleeping styles, and the kind of hygiene crimes David Attenborough could narrate.Danny crashes in with What the FAQ and drops the word “Rantallion” — which, yes, is real and means your balls hang lower than your dick. Cue 18th-century slang, tavern roasts, and everyone picturing Squidward’s face. Finally, James wraps it all up with a birthday quiz all about Rachel, with answers provided by none other than her mum.

    Ep. 82 Confessions from the Cockpit

    This week we take flight—literally. From Carlo Acutis, the world’s first digital saint, to the bloodsucking Irish legend of the Dearg Due that might just ruin your next trip to the pub, this episode packs both bite and blessing. Expect cultural tangents, personal anecdotes and the usual dose of questionable wisdom.We also dive into the mysteries of male behaviour—like why peeing in bottles is apparently more common than anyone wants to admit—and the awkward realities of bathroom etiquette across genders. Add in revenge stories, pet dramas, and the occasional Dearg Due warning, and you’ve got a classic Meet in the Middle mix: sharp, funny and seriously entertaining.#ComedyPodcast #BritishPodcast #IrishPodcast #Confessions #PopCulturePodcast #DigitalSaint #CarloAcutis #DeargDue #BathroomConfessions #RevengeStoriesFOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop-Specs – affordable, stylish glasses you’ll actually want to wear.

    Ep. 81 BANG! And The Skid Is Gone

    Season 5 kicks off with a bang (and a few questionable streams). Jake dives into Have You Heard with the viral tale of a missing Texan mum who resurfaced in the Scottish woods—ditching her kid to play handmaiden in a self-proclaimed tribal kingdom. TikTok rituals, forest robes and surrogate offers straight out of The Handmaid’s Tale—it’s all here.Rachel launches her brand-new segment Boys Catch Yourselves On by confronting the lads about a grim but apparently universal male pastime: using piss power to blast toilet stains. Turns out, skid-mark sniping is a competitive sport, and James admits to cleaning other people’s sh*t in public loos. Classy. Danny returns with What the FAQ and introduces the word “fubsy,” which somehow leads to banana-shaped penises, curvy compliments, and a Victorian nickname for cats. Only on this podcast could all that make sense.And to top it all off, Confessionals serve up a festive disaster—because nothing says Christmas like one dodgy decision and a secret you definitely wouldn’t want under the tree.#ComedyPodcast #BritishPodcast #IrishPodcast #Confessions #HaveYouHeard #WhatTheFAQ #BoysCatchYourselvesOn #PopCulturePodcast #ScottishTribe #HandmaidsTaleVibes #ToiletConfessions #Fubsy #ChristmasConfessionMeet in the Middle PodcastFOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleThis episode is kindly brought to you by our friends at Pop-Specs – affordable, stylish glasses you’ll actually want to wear.

    It’s episode 80 and the Freaky Friday Season Finale is officially off the rails. The hosts swap segments and nothing goes to plan. Rachel takes on Have You Heard with a scorcher—literally—as she digs into spontaneous human combustion and the bizarre mystery of the exploding chair. Danny steps into Agony Aunt with listener dilemmas including an unsolicited window sex show, a woman vabbing to attract men, and a virtual reality fling with a very real wife involved.James drops What the FAQ with the word “cattywampus” and somehow connects it to the Victorian minge. Meanwhile, Jake runs Confessionals and shares stories of an adult DVD smuggled into a church sale and a Facebook group nightmare that went nuclear.

Danny thinks it depends on the salad.Rachel returns with Agony Aunt—but it’s not your usual dilemmas. We’ve got a grandma going viral for ranking her grandchild’s exes, a love poem accidentally sent to the plumber, and a listener whose mum’s gym grind is putting them to shame.And in What the FAQ, Danny serves up “Gamahoosh,” a very real historical term for… mutual oral sex.

    Ep. 78 Cursed Labubus and Sensual Sourdough

    The heatwave’s got us dripping, but that’s not stopping the laughs this week. Jake, Rachel, Danny and James dive into the bizarre world of cursed Labubu collectibles, TikTok conspiracy theories and whether demon dolls are behind this endless heat. Jake’s convinced he’s going to get complaints, but it’s worth it.Rachel is back with Agony Aunt, helping a listener stuck between choosing art or medicine (and dealing with exes who date your best mate). James brings Confessionals, featuring a listener’s Freudian slip at work that might just be the most toe-curling (and hilarious) confession we’ve had in a while. Meanwhile, Danny’s What the FAQ delivers a historical fact so weird you’ll never look at your sourdough the same way again.

    It’s Jake’s birthday and things go downhill immediately. From tragic country-western fashion choices to farting during a massage, the gang celebrates in the only way they know how.In Have You Heard, Jake dives into the messy, scandal-stuffed life of Lord Byron: the poet, lover, skull-collector, and original bad boy of British bisexuality. Expect pubic hair trophies, pet bears, and a shockingly inappropriate drinking cup.Agony Aunt returns with two listener dilemmas that’ll have you screaming. First up: a woman’s Tinder date shows up with his mum, who spoon-feeds him at dinner and expects her to pay for the meal. Then comes a mortifying tale of a sext gone wrong—sent to the wrong man entirely… her boss. Warm regards, indeed.Confessionals round things off with an unforgettable story about a woman who catches her male flatmate folding laundry while casually wearing her missing red satin thong—and calls it "surprisingly breathable."

    Ep. 76 Missing in the Bennington Triangle and Confessions You Won’t Believe!

    The gang is back with another unfiltered comedy episode packed with hot takes, viral listener confessions and pop culture moments you’ll be quoting all week.In Have You Heard, Jake uncovers the mystery of America’s Bennington Triangle—a real-life Bermuda Triangle in Vermont where hikers vanish and UFO sightings fuel conspiracy theories. Meanwhile, Agony Aunt Rachel dives into listener dilemmas about a nude cowboy surprise, awkward baby talk in the bedroom and a listener whose spaghetti dinner turned into a choking hazard. Over in Confessions, things get even weirder when a listener admits to spreading toenail clippings all over the bed—and the team’s reactions are priceless.Danny’s What the FAQ brings you the bizarre Victorian insult quockerwodger for your next argument, while Top 10 Takedown sees the gang battling it out with Irish trivia, quick-fire quips and unexpected knowledge drops.

    Episode 75 delivers another hour of unfiltered madness—featuring towel trauma, gravy-covered athletes, and a word that nearly broke Danny.We kick things off with a discussion on the bizarre world of gravy wrestling, which somehow spirals into stories of awkward encounters, broken boundaries, and what not to wear when answering the door.In Agony Aunt, the gang dishes out chaotic wisdom to listeners in need—covering friendship fallouts, stale relationships, and a man who may or may not be a walking red flag. It’s heartfelt, unhinged, and occasionally useful.Then, it’s time for What the FAQ, where Danny introduces the gang to the word lickspittle—a term so vile it causes a group existential crisis. Is it a medieval insult? A fetish? A new Gregg’s meal deal item? Who knows.And finally, we wrap with a Confessional featuring a listener, a towel, and an unfortunately punctual postman—proving once again that nudity and doorbells should never mix.Meet in the Middle Podcast: Now in the Top 15% of Video Podcasts on Spotify 2024!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#comedy #podcast #britishpodcast #irishpodcast #funnyconfessions #gravywrestling #AgonyAunt #Confessionals #lickspittle #awkwardmoments #postmanfail #WhatTheFAQ #MeetInTheMiddle #SpotifyPodcast #TopPodcast

Is it creepy? Is it love? Is it just a free buffet? You decide.Rachel’s back on advice duty in Agony Aunt, unpacking three absolute disasters: a boyfriend sleep-talking about someone called Vanessa, a lad who sexts himself using the alter ego, and a vibrating drawer that’s getting way too comfortable in other people’s bedrooms.Then Danny delivers a questionable vocabulary lesson in What the FAQ, introducing the gang to the word “Fardel”—a term that sounds filthy, but sadly isn’t.Finally, James ends the show with a jaw-dropping Confessional: a lad sends a joke d*ck pic to his mate’s phone, only to find out that the mate’s wife had framed it, thinking it was her son's first photo.

    Ep. 72 Nice Ring...Wrong Hole!

    This week on Meet in the Middle, chaos bubbles to the surface. In Have You Heard, Jake dives into the bizarre world of celebrity hygiene as Sydney Sweeney releases limited-edition soap made from her actual bathwater. Naturally, this sparks a debate about influencer branding, candle-based trauma and how many armpits it takes to ruin a bar of soap.Danny brings What the FAQ, teaching the gang what it means to “groak”—aka loiter for food without asking. Snack stealing, chip hovering and dinner-guest guilt all get dragged into the spotlight.Over in Agony Aunt, Rachel handles some peak dating disasters including Davier the Liar, a man who faked being French using Google Translate and croissants, and a romantic date that goes off the rails thanks to a missing hamster and one very unfortunate vomit.Confessionals delivers chaos on a different level—from a flirtation that ends in a cousin encounter, to a pub quiz fart so loud it echoed off the walls, and a compliment that took an awkward turn when someone mistook a woman’s ring for… well, her bumhole. It’s classic Meet in the Middle carnage—and we wouldn’t have it any other way.Meet in the Middle Podcast: Now in the Top 15% of Video Podcasts on Spotify 2024!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comInstagram: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#PodcastComedy #PopCulturePodcast #UKPodcast #IrishPodcast #ConfessionsPodcast #AgonyAunt #Confessionals #WhatTheFAQ #CelebritySoap #SydneySweeney #Groaking #DavierTheLiar #HamsterDateFail #CousinEncounter #PubQuizFart #AwkwardCompliment #FunnyPodcast #SpotifyPodcasts #MeetInTheMiddle

    Ep. 71 Great British Skid-off

    Jake’s still decoding the messages in his coffee grounds, Danny’s fresh off stage with glitter in every crevice, and James has returned from holiday looking like a microwaved tomato. So naturally, chaos ensues. We kick things off with Have You Heard, where Jake tells the wild true story of a woman who literally learned to fly a helicopter to bust her husband out of prison. Forget Prison Break, this is Love Island: Maximum Security Edition.Next up, it’s Agony Aunt, and the boys dig into one of the worst date disasters we’ve ever received. One word: skidmark. Another word: therapy. We’re talking Derry lads, dating humiliation, oinking fetishes, and a dog called Jeff who somehow has more followers (and charisma) than his owner. We wrap things up with Danny’s What the FAQ, where we learn the true meaning of “catawaling”—and then close the episode with two utterly vile Confessionals: one about a fart so foul it halted a courtroom, and another involving a family shower, a mystery poo, and one man’s deeply disturbing reaction.Meet in the Middle Podcast: Now in the Top 15% of Video Podcasts on Spotify 2024!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle Website: www.meetinthemiddlepod.comIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#podcast #comedy #britishpodcast #irishpodcast #funnyconfessions #meetinthemiddle #popculture #drag #helicopterrescue #datingfails #HaveYouHeard #AgonyAunt #WhatTheFAQ #Confessional #SpotifyPodcasts #TopPodcast #JeffTheDog #courtroomfart #showerpoo

    Ep. 70 Sucked Into a Scandal

    This week the gang is unhinged in the best way. Rachel’s back with Agony Aunt featuring a man caught getting veryromantic with his Hoover, a lavender-loving mother-in-law who steals the man cave and a Chihuahua called Butch who’s running a full-blown canine dictatorship. Spoiler: someone ends up sleeping on the floor.Jake leads Have You Heard with the wildest AI-meets-tarot tale ever—a woman in Greece files for divorce after her coffee grounds reveal a cheating husband... thanks to an AI fortune-teller. Confessionals gets messy with disastrous first dates, gym farts and an unexpected wine aerator. Danny returns with What the FAQ where the gang discovers the meaning of “absquatulate” (spoiler: it’s not a pelvic workout). Plus, the “For Flip’s Sake” quiz gets spicy with Girls Aloud, backwards bangers and Eurovision curveballs.Meet in the Middle Podcast: Now in the Top 15% of Video Podcasts on Spotify 2024!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#PodcastComedy #PopCulturePodcast #UKPodcast #IrishPodcast #ConfessionsPodcast #AgonyAunt #Confessionals #WhatTheFAQ #ForFlipsSake #AIConfession #HooverLove #Absquatulate #EurovisionQuiz #FunnyPodcast #SpotifyPodcasts #MeetInTheMiddle

    Ep. 69 Culchie Chaos

    It’s Episode 69... so naturally things get messy. This week the gang dives into wild conspiracy theories, eerie presidential coincidences and a Titanic prediction that might’ve been ripped straight from a fever dream. Jake leads Have You Heard down a rabbit hole of Lincoln vs Kennedy, Titanic déjà vu and a suspicious amount of number 7s. Meanwhile, Pope Leo is crowned in Fanta Papa fantasy leagues and Rachel becomes fixated on passive-smoking seagulls.Over in Agony Aunt, Rachel deals with a love triangle that makes Shakespeare look subtle, a bonus baby bombshell nine years late and one confession involving coconut oil that left everyone speechless. What the FAQ  gets suspiciously Irish as Danny uncovers the real meaning of “culchie” and accidentally alienates half of rural Ireland. Episode 69 lives up to its name with confessions, conspiracies and coconut-fuelled chaos.Meet in the Middle Podcast: Now in the Top 15% of Video Podcasts on Spotify 2024!FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODEWant to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddleIntro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise#PodcastComedy #PopCulturePodcast #UKPodcast #IrishPodcast #ConfessionsPodcast #AgonyAunt #WhatTheFAQ #FantaPapa #CoconutConfession #Culchie #BonusBaby #FunnyPodcast #SpotifyPodcasts #MeetInTheMiddle #Episode69 #PodcastLaughs

    Ep. 68 Get To The Growler

    It’s the lads’ takeover and chaos is in full swing. With Rachel away, Jake James and birthday boy Danny tackle everything from ghostly encounters in Hartlepool to fantasy football for Popes (yes really). In this week's Have You Heard we explore the bizarre Vatican betting pool known as Fanta Papa, where Italians draft their dream Pope teams like it's Premier League season.James hosts a spooky edition of Confessionals featuring haunted neighbours, judging pets and one feline witness to a very NSFW bedroom moment. Danny delivers another eyebrow-raising Agony Aunt packed with stolen shirts and shady hookups, while “What the FAQ” uncovers Victorian growleries and the unexpected truth behind bad mood rooms. Plus a ‘90s quiz showdown for the ages and a surprise reference to Pepsi Cola hats.

    Ep. 67 The C*mger Games

    Brace yourself for a full-throttle meltdown of chaos as the gang tackles viral Dubai chocolate taste tests, wildly dodgy imports and a shocking reveal that Danny’s might have come from Milton Keynes not the Middle East. Things get sticky fast and that’s before Jake drops a bombshell about LA’s very first sperm race—complete with commentary, leaderboard and a halftime show. Honestly, what is this world?Jake launches a One Hit Wonder special of For Flip Sake that’ll hit you right in the childhood, while James takes the reins for Confessionals where things get seriously juicy. From secret chocolate binges to accidental gadget buzzing during board meetings, no shameful tale is safe.

    Ep. 66 Grooms of Stool

    The chaos is back and so is Rachel (barely recovered from her hangover allergy). This week the gang launches their brand new website (cue applause and confused shouting), debates the best lube alternatives (spoiler alert coconut oil is not it), and introduces us to Merlin, a disabled duck with a frisky past and a fully custom DIY wheelchair. You really can’t make this quack up.In “Have You Heard” Jake delivers a duck sex saga that would make Attenborough blush. Rachel dishes out “Agony Aunt” wisdom on sexts sent to mums and the perils of anal bleach gone wrong. Danny dives into the royal arse-wiping past with “What the FAQ” and the gang spirals into giggles buzzer fails and random fits of laughter.

    Ep. 65 Holy Smackdown

    This week on Meet in the Middle, it’s the holiest of smackdowns as we dive into the absolutely real and completely bonkers story of a Yorkshire church hosting wrestling-themed services. Yep, Jesus in a headlock. WWE meets WWJD. It’s a divine tag team and you know we’ve got thoughts.With Rachel off negotiating peace with a hangover demon, the lads step in for a classic “bad boys” episode: unfiltered, unhinged and probably unholy.
