Ep 217 - Crazy Cuckoo Bananas
Kevin and PJ are back and have a lot to talk about thanks to Lily Allen’s new album, West End Girl. PJ finds himself stepping into some playground drama in his apartment block but isn’t sure if he stopped a bullying incident or just ruined a friendship. Kevin’s found a stunning new wine spot but the presence of a charcuterie board has PJ on edge. Kevin also shares tales from Amsterdam where the raving was intense and the mesh confusing. For the theme, the lads chat lyrical payback, Lily Allen’s divorce from David Harbour, and whether they’d like to be the villain in someone’s breakup album.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨ Hosted on Acast.

Ep 214 - No One's Spunking on the Sofa
PJ’s after getting a new couch but has enforced a strict “no sex on the new sofa” policy because it was pricey girls. He also confesses his deep love for waffles while Kevin argues there’s something inherently Protestant about the smiley-faced ones. The boys then dive into the dark world of doom scrolling as their screen times hit new highs, leading Kevin to realise maybe it was a good thing he never got that iPad after all.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨ Hosted on Acast.
