563 - FOOD REVIEW CLUB - Best Bites and Worst Meals from 5,000 Takeaways, & Responding To The SCAM Allegations!

One Man. 5,000 Takeaways. Zero Salads. It’s a strange business model but Matt - creator of Food Review Club - has managed to make it his livelihood due to his genuine passion for speaking about food. The brutally honest takeaway taster has spent the last 7 years travelling the globe in search of hidden gems and shares with us the few places he’s ever dared to rate a full 10. Matt reveals where the best pizza, fish and chips, sandwich and burger are in the UK, as well as some must-visit London eats. He designs his dream fast food combo, and we cover viral food trends like Spudman, Binley Mega Chippy and Dubai chocolate. Did he like Salt Bae’s steak? What about food from Jeremy Clarkson’s farm? And how would he rate Wetherspoons food? Matt tells us why a Norwich eatery had to close down after he visited, why Dave Portnoy might hate him and the worst place he’s ever reviewed whose food he describes as nearly inedible! Matt also shares his honest opinion on fellow food reviewers BlueVanMan and Gary Eats (who gave Matt a scathing review). And after RateMyTakeaway recently called him out, he also addresses the claims he has scammed his viewers by charging establishments for reviews, and the backlash from his leaked voice note.

561 - GRACE NEUTRAL - Body Modification, Tattooed Eyeballs, EATING Your Own Skin, & Dick Splitting!

Tattoo artist and body mod icon Grace Neutral sits down for a brutally honest deep dive into the world of extreme body modification. Spending her childhood training as a ballerina, her life drastically changed direction after discovering the punk scene.

Grace delves into how kink and mental illness have an impact on people seeking out body modifications. She shares which of her mods she regrets, and her family’s opinion on her transformation. We get into her early days as a piercer, the sketchy ethics of underground modding, and how deeply misogynistic tattoo shop culture can be. We learn about an 107 year old tattoo artist, and the man whose mods are too extreme even for Grace! We also learn about sounding, scarification, and what it’s like to eat your own skin… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

With no plans to even be a singer, Luke tells us which songs were unexpected viral hits, why he was kicked out of his own gig, and what happens when Rolling Stone gives your debut album a scathing review… Hugh shares the absolutely ridiculous band name suggestion that was turned down, why he wasn’t a fan of their huge hit ‘Naive’, and the unconventional place he chose to write the new album.

547 - LUKE TARRANT - Adventurer Turned Amputee On The Mysterious Accident That Lost Him His Leg

After waking up in a Columbian hospital following a mysterious accident, battling life threatening injuries and an imminent leg amputation, Luke Tarrant had a million questions. Is this a real hospital? Could social media save his leg? What actually happened? But the answers would have to wait as things took a turn for the worse with sepsis beginning to set in… Despite the unlucky chain of events, the incredibly optimistic Luke still refers to himself as ‘lucky’. Luke’s sheer determination and beautiful outlook on life is not only inspirational, but humorous and self deprecating. Jaack and Stevie ask Luke questions they would normally be too scared to ask a recent amputee. What does phantom pain feel like? What are the benefits of having one leg?

544 - Stevie's Got Tits

During our brief break from posting, every part of Stevie’s body has fallen apart. From his bleeding hands, to his overactive breast tissue, to a mysterious rash that got him genuinely interrogated by his doctor. We have a pressing question about pissing on pubic hairs in public toilets. Speaking of, Jaack admits what he does in public loos in the hopes that his cubicle neighbours will hear it. Alfie shares how his sold out gig went, and interrogates Stevie on why he didn't show up. Is it okay to go to Disneyland alone? Stevie shares his incredibly bleak trip to the happiest place on Earth, and we debate the ethics of solo theme park visits.

536 - DAN TIERNAN - From Dyspraxic Dinner Lady, To British Comedian Of The Year!

In this episode of Happy Hour, we spend 90 minutes with comedian Dan Tiernan who is as brilliant as he is bizarre. From dealing with dyspraxia, to working as a school dinner lady, to being crowned British Comedian Of The Year in 2022 - Dan doesn’t like to take the conventional path. His second EVER stand up gig was an impromptu set in New York, and he’s performed at Live At The Apollo with one of Jaack’s comedy heroes! He’s also tried his hand at acting (he caused a TV show to be axed after his appearance) and performing magic (Dan details a gruesome injury from when his trick went wrong). He shares why an audience member threw his entire drink over him at one of his shows, and the insult dealt by fellow comic Jon Richardson that Dan will never forgot. We also chat about his gout diagnosis, how gout affects his daily life, what his first gout symptoms were, what caused his gout… what we’re trying to say here is that it’s a very “gout heavy” episode.

The ball machine. The mystical contraption where previous Happy Hour guests submit weird and wonderful questions to be answered by future guests. Its shiny red button has been tempting us for months, and we’ve finally caved.

From the most ridiculous hypothetical scenarios to the deepest darkest confessions, we promise to answer honestly (sometimes way too honestly).Angry Ginge asks the age-old question: ever sucked someone’s toes? (We won’t spoil the answer, but you might be surprised) Luke Littler raises a life-or-death dilemma involving the Grim Reaper. Sam Tompkins’ question leads us to unpack the logistical nightmare of living as a literal house.TommyInnit investigates our shagging preferences, FrostBit Boy is curious about our fetishes, and Darragh Ennis is daring us to swim with predators (not the neighbour kind).

With precisely zero rugby knowledge between the hosts, Joe gives us a crash course in rugby and even puts Jaack’s newfound skills to the test with an actual scrum!Rugby has plenty of weird terms for the boys to learn. What is a Mulligrubber? How about an Alickadoo? Rugby players are also infamous for their gross initiations - Joe tells us stories involving spider pig, scissoring and spanking. We cover his Haka controversy, coming out of retirement, and his podcast interviewing people with obscure jobs. And we maaaay have accidentally caused beef between Joe Marler and Danny Aarons…Joe’s humour perfectly fits the vibe of Happy Hour, and this 90 minutes feels more like a main show than a Thursday guest interview!

533 - Not So Superpowers 2

Jaack has come up with a list of bizarre superpowers that the boys can choose to gain, however each superpower comes with a caveat that may make them wish they stayed a mere mortal. Would you want the ability to swim insanely fast, but you constantly stink of fish? Never have to wipe after a poop, but peeing takes 5x longer? Gain 3 inches in penis length but lose 3 inches of height? (High brow stuff). Elite fighting skills, irresistible to strangers, walking through walls… each superpower comes with a big catch. Plus it's not just the powers that are questionable as Jaack has a hygiene confession AND a sexual confession that we’re pretty sure he should have kept to himself… Check out for the first instalment of Not So Superpowers!

We sit down with the multi-talented comedian, actor and all-around lovely geezer Tom Davis who has us howling for 90 minutes! Tom’s first job as a scaffolder is a far cry from the red carpets he walks today. Despite having never had any acting lessons, Tom stars in Wonka and Paddington 2. He shares what Timothée Chalamet is like off screen, and why the trailer he was given on set caused a bit of a problem! Tom co-created BAFTA winning ‘Murder In Successville’ which, despite ITV not being keen on the sitcom in the first script read through, went on to have a Netflix USA adaptation. Tom went from being a scaffolder to a stand up comedian in just a few years - though not without a few bad gigs along the way, especially a particularly bad set at Download festival where bodily fluids were thrown at him… We also chat about his podcast Wolf and Owl with fellow comic Romesh Ranganathan, and his one bad habit that had his viewers fuming. Plus why he’s not a huge supporter of Edinburgh Fringe, his scary footie match experience, and one of his early jobs scaring pigeons! Learn more about your ad choices.

Is Harry Potter a murderer? Sex scenes in Spongebob? Schizophrenia in Finding Nemo? Incest in Rugrats? 100 mental illnesses in Hundred Acre Wood? WARNING: you will never be able to look at Fiona from Shrek the same way again… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Drinks are flowing, the FourSkins are glowing, and Father Rizzmas is Ho Ho Hoeing. This can only mean one thing…. HAPPY HOUR CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! The boys are joined by Danny Aarons’ manager Jack for his second appearance, and Dan is making his Happy Hour debut! We’ve swapped the Virgin Mary for vasectomy chat, presents for premature ejaculation, festivities for fleshlights, and roast dinners for roasting eachother. Alfie got a healthy dose of peer pressure to force him into drinking alcohol and the half a pint went straight to his head. Father Rizzmas is back for his most exuberant appearance yet. Robbie brought in some fancy crackers from John Lewis, but the surprises inside are NOT what we expected… Jaack had an awkward miscommunication at Harry Potter world, and Jack Smith talks about his own visit there where he took a wrong turn and ended up somewhere he DEFINITELY should not have been! We play a game where we all anonymously answer questions about eachother, but will our friendship stand up to it? Alfie has kept his promise to write and perform a festive grime rap, but does it live up to expectations? We said last year’s Secret Santa was the best one we’ve ever done… but does this one top it?! Merry Christmas from all of us here at Happy Hour! 💛Alfie’s rap video - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

525 - The OFFICIAL Christmas Tier Lists (FourSkins Blind Rank Movies, Songs & Food!)

In today’s Main Show Monday, Jaack, Stevie, Robbie and Alfie work together to officially crown the best Christmas movie, song, and food of all time. No other podcast’s opinion matters, no food critique or movie reviewer can delve quite as deep into these festive debates as we’re about to… Fiona is letting me (Jaack) write this episode description for the first time in years. She told me I need to creatively tease the episode well enough so that you guys just HAVE to listen, so here goes:Elf? Home Alone? The Grinch? Zoella’s Advent Calendar Brutal Honest Review? Which film truly belongs at the top of the Christmas tree, and which is truly just a sack of coal dumped in the outhouse? (I don’t know what an outhouse is. Just sounded cool in my head)WHAM! A great Christmas song or just a word used at the start of this paragraph to capture your attention? Who knows. Maybe you find out in this episode? Maybe you don’t. Maybe this episode is LITERALLY just the Fourskins blind ranking Christmas movies, films and food. How else can I explain this? How else can I possibly sell this episode to you? It’s Christmas, you have nothing better to do, and you damn well know that deep down you love this shit. Oh - before I go, and sign off the best episode description of all time, I will say this… wait for Robbie getting exposed over his love for a certain female pop star. Question marks are raised.

In today’s Happy Hour (and a half) the boys are joined by funny man Simon Brodkin (who you may also know as his working class comedy character Lee Nelson!) 10 years ago almost to the day, Simon was one of the first people Jaack ever interviewed, so it felt apt to bring him back for a full circle moment to remember! Simon’s only tattoo might say “no regrets” but Jaack certainly has one after a highly embarrassing quickfire question… What is it like to gatecrash American president Donald Trump on a golf course? HOW did Simon not get shot for his antics? Marginally, is the answer. Simon reveals everything that happened both before and after he pranked Trump. Simon explains just how he managed to join Kanye West on stage, unannounced, during his headline Glastonbury set causing Kanye to stop the entire show! Theresa May, the Man City team, Volkswagen and the president of FIFA Sepp Blatter have all also been on the receiving end of Brodkin’s stunts… and there’s no stone left unturned today as the boys discuss them all in great detail.And if that’s not enough TOP CLASS PODCAST CONTENT, the boys also dig into Simon’s previous work before stand-up, in which he worked for a year as a doctor. What’s it like to see a human dead body? Forget that. Simon can tell you what it’s like to dissect a human dead body. Today’s episode is almost guaranteed to enter the top shelf of Happy Hour classic guest episodes, and if you love Simon as much as we do and want more of him, you can go and see him live on tour here - Learn more about your ad choices.

We’re LIFTING THE MOOD ON A MONDAY MORN with a Jaack, Stevie and Robbie all caught up! In this golden egg of an episode, Jaack and Stevie tell us about their recent trip to LA for a Spotify event. Celeb spotting was on the cards but there was one person in particular that the boys were extra giddy to meet! Jaack and Stevie watched their first ever NBA game - Lakers v Grizzlies - but were less than impressed with how America does sports, the price of beers, and LeBron’s son… Jaack got into beef with a bodyguard, stole a teddy bear from a child, and also managed to embarrass himself in front of Caspar Lee. Stevie's business class flight left him with a LOT to grumble about, but at least he's now officially joined the half mile high club! Robbie has a bone to pick with BambinoBecky, after he was left to drink alone in Europe. He's also got a story about a very drunk Darren Huckerby, and we have a promise to our audience after the recent backlash over Robbie’s roast dinner.

Following on from ep , Jaack, Stevie and Robbie are answering MORE questions from our subreddit! If we had to do another job different to podcasting, what would it be?
