SIGN UP HERE 👇https://suitmerch.store Subscribe to our Patreon for bonus content, merch discounts, Jacktivities & TomTalks 👇 https://www.patreon.com/c/shutupimtalking This week on Shut Up I’m Talking, TommyInnit and Jack Manifold welcome viral TikTok comedian and Brighton local Isaac HP to the podcast, whose wild energy and painfully honest humour have made him one of the UK’s most unpredictable rising stars.  From his difficult childhood to making himself into a meme and becoming a social media phenomenon, Isaac opens up about mental health, working-class shame, burnout, and the fear of not belonging in the creative world. He talks about his toughest comedy gigs, being mistaken for a terrorist in Poole, surviving therapy and TikTok addiction, and how Brighton helped him rebuild his life. Tom and Jack talk about their own creative struggles too, from streaming, writing and performing to staying authentic and not being defined by stats.  Expect hilarious stories, raw honesty, and some deep takes on class, anxiety, creativity, and the healing power of comedy. Plus Isaac’s love of actual newspapers, Minions, and his worst moment of the week.

• 56: Tom gets political

  Ikea Hotdogs, Political Chaos, Weird Childhood Memories and Brighton Life ⬇️ MERCH ⬇️ Dropping 17th October. Sign up below for reminders! www.suitmerch.store In this episode of Shut Up I’m Talking, TommyInnit and Jack Manifold are back with another hour of chat about their lives, including Ikea hotdog disappointments, Tom’s accidental political career, and why tiny little thin things make Jack feel sick. Tom discovers the joy of CEX and DVDs and reflects on BBC Radio, being labelled “the opposite of Andrew Tate,” and accidentally becoming a political commentator despite his only point of political reference being what his mum thinks.

Extreme cuteness as Jack becomes a ‘fully qualified’ puppy trainer ● Jack’s ridiculous 'would you rather' questions ● Tom’s knitting-based problem and maths fails ● How’s the worm doing?

• 55: 2 Idiots vs 2 Scientists

  In an attempt to prove to Tom that science is a real thing, this week TommyInnit and Jack Manifold are joined by Henry and Gregor from Veritasium, the minds behind some of YouTube’s most fascinating science videos. From dynamite and Nobel Prizes to space, aliens, and free will, this episode dives deep into the questions that keep you up at night. The boys discuss: • Only just surviving Valencia’s infamous tomato festival • The science of time, perception, and the paradox of time travel • Whether aliens could wipe us out like insects • Depression, dopamine, and why evolution made us sad • Hacking, phone spying & 2FA vulnerabilities • What happens when we die? Reincarnation, free will, or nothing at all? Also: Ikea mishaps, shoplifting confessions, and Tom trying to prove that science is boring. ⬇Follow Henry & Gregor on Instagram:⬇ https://www.instagram.com/henry.vandyck https://www.instagram.com/gregor_cavlovic ⬇ Tickets to our Brighton live show on October 23rd ⬇ https://www.theoldmarket.com/shows/shut-up-im-talking-live ⬇ Vote in polls to raise money for CALM ⬇ https://tiltify.com/@shut-up-im-talking/shut-up-im-talking-about-mental-health ⬇Join us on Patreon for bonus weekly episodes, Jacktivities, TomTalks & BTS: ⬇ https://www.patreon.com/c/shutupimtalking Written & presented by: Tom Simons & Jack Manifold Executive producer: Mirren Mace Directed by: Mirren Mace Producer: Russell Noon Production coordinator: Tori Sheard Social media: Tori Sheard Camera, sound & lighting: Owen Rogers & Hazar Ayyildiz Editor: Owen Rogers Shorts editor & Thumbnail: Snikrep Set design: Mirren Mace This podcast episode was recorded on 09/09/2025 Follow us on social media:  IG: https://instagram.com/shutuplmtalking   X: https://x.com/shutup1mtalking TikTok: https://tiktok.com/shutup1mtalking
