On this week’s bonus, Sam and Pete are back together and they’ve got some big questions to tackle…

We start with the viral Yo-Chi hype as the Australian frozen yoghurt brand has officially landed in London. Sam and Pete reveal their go to orders and, as you can probably guess, one is very minimalist and controlled while the other is complete chaos. Speaking of ice cream Pete also answers the important question of whether he could fit four Twister ice lollies in his mouth at once.

The food chat doesn’t stop there as the boys decide which food they’d most like to permanently smell of, before Pete gets into a rant about all the things he thinks people secretly pretend to enjoy, especially in the influencer world...

And finally, Sam and Pete settle the far more important debate of which animal is secretly the biggest dickhead. The list goes on and, unsurprisingly, the boys can’t seem to agree on any of them…

With Pete away, Producer Pippa has finally been promoted from the producer seat to the big chair as she joins Sam for this week’s episode. And with no Pete around to keep us in check, there’s quite a lot to catch up on.

We have a big debrief on Bongo’s Bingo and just how much Pete enjoyed himself…turns out, he loved it so much he even got his top off.

While Pete’s been away, Sam’s been loving the girly chat in the office, so naturally we get onto dating apps and dating advice. This sparks the story of his worst date ever, where the girl walked out before she’d even sat down. Not ideal. Sam also reminisces about his early Made in Chelsea days, reveals just how real those fights actually were and shares a few behind-the-scenes secrets from his time on the show.

And finally, Sam admits he’s feeling broody and thinks he might just be ready for kids. Pippa is on hand to give her thoughts...

With Pete away, Sam is joined by Iain Stirling! We hear about his unlikely journey from studying law to becoming one of the biggest voices in British TV.

Sam also begins fanboying (shock) when Iain tells us about his twitch channel. Of course Sam has now asked (forced) Iain to game with him.

The conversation then turns to all things Love Island, with Iain revealing what it’s really been like taking the show to the US and sharing some of his favourite contestants from across the years.
