Weird fact: 30% of IKEA customers go there for the Food Court alone. Thatâs nearly one in three, driving to this big yellow and blue warehouse, not for some flat packed desk or Billy Bookcase. For a plate of small Swedish meatballs!
Which begs the question: what the F is in those meatballs?? And why do they draw a crowd to a furniture brand?
If youâve been to an IKEA - probably dragged there by some parent or other half - youâve likely wondered, âhow are these hot dogs so cheap?â
You might have also questioned if you can get those sweet little balls delivered right to your door for a cheap, dine-in meal by the telly with the spouse on a Friday night.
Well let me tell you two things:
If youâve wondered that specifically, your marriage needs help.If you want the answer to those last 2 questions and more, listen to this episode.Liked this episode or have a suggestion for something we should bother doing? Weâd love your review!

You marry him because he wouldnât be the only sweet treat youâd have access to. At any time, day or night. Think about it lads! Fu*kin THINK will ya!
Is this the only thing we discuss? Again, no. Itâs just among other non-related topics that we chat about when weâre not busy discovering what things you should bother with or not.

It's our first ever Patreon episode! Currently a bit of filler while we're on our holliers.
And what better to discuss the goats, kebabs and marching bands? With the potential to each be as enjoyable as the next.
Also, can you guess what they all have in common? Thats right. Fuck*n zero.

Did you know there are 200 period tracking apps that are available on app stores today?
Why so many? Because maybe theyâre something you should bother with? And that's exactly what weâre here to figure out!
What you maybe didnât already know:
Men get periods too (yes girls, we are out to steal your fu*kin thunder)People tracked their periods using bones in the past (not their own bones)In France, âthe little clown with the bleeding noseâ is a term used to describe menstruation (the female one; men don't bleed down there.. usually!)What's the point in saying all that? Just a teaser of the kind of sh*te we talk about on this week's episode.
We also discuss useful things though, like the best period tracking apps - especially those that donât share your data - and which of those are free or subscription based.
Coming up next week - we're on our summer holidays! (said in our best yorkshire impressions).
We'll be back in September and don't worry. There'll still be some Patreon content. So stay tuned, little clown xx

So, mushroom coffee is a thing these days - mainly thanks to those Nordic fellas from 4 Sigmatic, which you may have heard of?
Whatâs next? Coffee mixed with butter?!
Oh, waitâŠ
Future episode, maybe.
Letâs stick with the mushroom one for now.
When it comes to mushroom coffee, your question is probably the same one we had: whatâs the fu*kin point in this? Why ruin one of lifeâs little pleasures by mixing it with a fungus??
Usually the answer comes back to health benefits or weight loss or something, so we assumed this was the same.
Another important question: will it taste like shit? Or mushrooms? Thatâs probably more likely. Otherwise itâd just be called, âsh*t coffeeâ, coffee made from sh*t - which is also a thing!
So many coffee variants, so little⊠actually, letâs be honest, plenty of time to try them all. But, if youâve heard of mushroom coffee and canât be arsed paying a premium for a potential bag of dirt, take 57 mins to listen to this and weâll let you know if itâs something you should bother with, or not.

If youâve heard of the Caminito Del Rey - or seen people posting about it on Instagram - youâve probably heard the âmost dangerous walkwayâ claim along with it.
The word people forget to include however is, âformerâ. Do you really think weâd be doing this otherwise?? Not a fuckin⊠HOPE!
Since the walkway got refurbished in 2015 and pretty much baby-proofed (you must be 8 years of age and this tall and to ride) there have been no recorded deaths - that we know of.
But, being a walkway thatâs attached to a cliff face 100 metres above a gorge, weâre guessing thereâs been a few soiled pairs of underwear. The exact number, weâre unsure of (apparently the tourist attraction doesnât keep track of those kinds of records).
What we can promise, however, is thereâs a high chance of at least 2 soiled pairs after weâve tried it.
Listen in for that potential shitty reveal and to know if this is worth bothering with the trip to El Churro in southern Spain to try it for yourself.

âCandlelight concertâ - sounds fancy, intimate and an all-round pleasant evening out, doesnât it? Perfect date night perhaps?
If youâre one of the many millions of people thatâs been targeted by their ads since 2019, you can also confirm that thatâs exactly what it looks like!
Hosted in over 100 countries across the globe, a quick âcandlelight concert near meâ google and youâre sure to find an event pretty close to where you live.
But as with everything we try on the pod, thereâs so many questions!
Is it good value for money? Might it be the most boring concert youâve ever sat through? And with that many candles in one place, how many venues have they managed to burn to the ground? (Bunch of fkn pyromaniacs!)
The biggest question of all though: is this something you should bother with?
Attending their Coldplay candlelight concert in Malaga, weâll answer that very question for you and suss everything out - discussing the dress code, reviews and the overall general vibe.
So if youâre wondering if you should finally give into their annoying ads, or if this could be your next best date night, listen in.

Is it just us or does the word âdietâ trigger a tiny voice in your head that whispers, âFu*k.. Offâ every time you hear it?
But maybe the Mediterranean Diet is different? Not quite a âdietâ in the traditional sense and itâs sure to include Italian food - how bad can that be?!
Going into this weekâs pod naively expecting plenty of pizza and pasta, we decided to try out the Mediterranean Diet. And why not? Heard itâs one of, if not, THE healthiest diet in the world. And since weâre temporarily based in Spain, we thought.. âWhen in Romeâ?
In this episode, expect to hear things like:
what this diet consists of (and more importantly, what you canât eat), global blue zones (and how the âmed dietâ fits into the bigger picture)What to expect from adopting this dietAnd of course, our opinion on if you should bother with it after weâve tried it ourselves.Oh and if youâre only listening and not watching, imagine us throwing our hands around all the time, like weâre Italian. Makes the whole experience more Mediterranean đ€

If youâve never heard of them, youâre probably wondering, âwhat are morning pages?â Common sense would say you probably already have a fair idea. Pages⊠that you do⊠in the morning?
Exactly! And thatâs how Julia Cameron, author of the bestseller, âThe Artistâs Wayâ and creator of this lilâ journaling technique, describes them too.
What? Youâve never heard of her either?? Look, thatâs ok. Remember, this doesnât make you an idiot. Please put the dunce cap.. Down!
Listen into the pod and we promise to bring you up to speed. Weâll go through what morning pages are, who this Julia Cameron lady is and why Tim Ferriss - famous for interviewing the elite and optimising productivity - is also a big fan of this morning routine.
Weâll also try this out for a week and give our own opinion on whether itâs something you should bother with too. But you already knew that, seeing as the title of this podcast is about as obvious as âmorning pagesâ.
Common sense lads, come on!

Have you ever googled âKickboxing classes near meâ only to imagine what itâd be like to actually receive a kick or punch to the head and ultimately turn yourself off the idea?
If so, youâre in luck! In this episode, weâre going to try a class for you and report back so you know exactly what to expect. No bruises, no black eyes. You wonât even need to break a sweat!
Just put your headphones on, lie around, get some popcorn if you want. You do you.
Weâll talk you through what a class and kickboxing workout entails, the (short) history behind the sport and weâve also got a little bulls**t game to break the episode up, as per usual.
So if youâve ever wondered if you should bother trying kickboxing classes - or you have some weird curiosity about receiving physical damage to your face - tune into this episode and weâll help you decide.

What is a womenâs circle? Obviously the name paints a picture in itself (a group of women around a fire singing Kumbayah for one) but whatâs actually involved?
If you were to take a guess, thereâs likely some discussion around commonalities within the group (i.e. âgirl stuffâ) and that kind of vulnerability in front of strangers can go one of two ways - it remains as uncomfortable as it sounds OR itâs a big fat empowering relief!
Hoping for the latter, Steph went this one alone this week by joining a local womenâs circle in a villa with a pool in Spain. Definitely sounds appealing so far.
As usual, expect to hear some research around the topic - what is a womenâs circle, whatâs typically involved and why anyone bothers with this - before trying the activity for herself to decide if itâs worth the bother of trying at all.
Oh, and of course, we break it up with our weekly game thatâs loosely related to the topic. But you know that at this stage! ;)

Letâs be honest. If you enjoy a glass of wine, isnât this the perfect excuse to have one early in the day, completely shame free?!
Other than drinking the ends of leftover drinks in the early hours, weâve never been to a wine tasting before.
Whatâs the typical wine tasting attire? What are wine tasting notes? Is there particular wine tasting etiquette we need to follow? And whatâs the story with sommeliers anyway?
So many questions! But luckily, all researched and answered for you - another clueless individual thatâs wondered if you should bother with a wine tasting event.
Our little wine tasting also happens to come with food, but weâll tell you all about how that went in the episode.
Grab your corkscrew and drink along if you wish. Just make sure itâs in a brown paper bag. Apparently thatâs the classy way to drink it.

Survival of the fittest? Not if youâre one of the very few out there with basic survival skills and tools. Then, even if the world ends, you can be as fat and slow as you like!
This week, weâre prepping for future emergencies and heading to our local survival training camp to brush up on our severe lack of survival skills and knowledge.
Can we light a fire without a lighter? No. Catch prey or forage for snacks? Nope. Know what to pack in a basic survival kit? Not a fu**ing chance!
But maybe thatâs all about to change.
Expect Destinyâs Child and plenty of Bear Gryll references in this one. Donât like them? You know what to do - Improvise. Adapt. Overcome!

Weâre in Spain at the moment and since weâve only tried one form of dancing on this podcast to date, why not step into one of Spainâs many stereotypes while weâre here - Flamenco dancing! (Bullfighting is in the works, we promise!)
Hereâs what to expect from this episode:
We talk about the history and origin of flamenco (unsurprising to most - it has zero to do with Flamingos)We discuss what to wear, with zero castanets between us..We play a game thatâs âlooselyâ related to the topic (I added those inverted commas for good reason)And we finish off by discussing our experience learning Flamenco dancing in a CajĂłn studio. A CajĂłn?! Whatâs that? A future episode is what it is! But if you canât wait that long, itâs one of those boxes people sit on and use it as a drum.So if any of that sounds interesting, or if youâve ever spent two minutes looking at that dancing emoji woman in the red dress đ and wondered, âIs Flamenco dancing worth the bother?â
Listen to this episode and weâll let you know.

We strongly believe that somewhere, over the rainbow, there lives a Jason Mraz lookalike that desperately wants to learn the Ukulele. And although weâd love to beat him, this week weâre actually gonna join him!
First question to address - is the Ukulele just a small guitar?? One quick glance would say yes? Thereâs less strings, so does that mean less chords? Does that mean thereâs at least one easy ukulele song we can master in an hour?
Lucky enough to stumble across a ukulele group session this week - hosted in an Irish pub, nonetheless - we jumped at the opportunity to learn our second instrument of the pod!
Is the ukulele something you should bother with? And will our social anxiety get the best of us, pretending to play an instrument among a group of strangers?
Listen and uke shall see for yourself.

What is Pilates? Youâve heard it on TV. Youâve seen it on signs. Youâve likely heard your mamâs friends talking about it. âDid you see theyâre doing pilates with machines now?â
But have you ever looked into it? And is it worth your precious time to partake?
Today weâre pulling on our pilates socks and discussing everything we can find online about pilates. What are the benefits? Can pilates help you lose weight? What about pilates vs yoga, are they that different?
Then - after we play our standard, âloosely related to the topicâ game - weâll try out a class for ourselves to discuss the pilates before and after and see if it has any impact at all.
Curious to know if Pilates is actually something you should bother with? Then, grab your headphones and letâs get started.

Weâve spent the last 2 years trying a new hobby, sport, health trend or tiktok sensation, week-in, week-out to discover whatâs worth bothering with or not.
Where the F**K did that time go?!
And after trying 99 of them, we feel we might actually have some lessons to share! So, we asked our audience what theyâd like to know most and spent this episode addressing them.
Want to know what are the most challenging activities to try? Listen in! Want to know what health trends are worthwhile and which are utter boll**ks? Listen In! Want to know what 3 hobbies will give you the most fulfilling week possible? ⊠You get the point.
We also discuss the topics we want to try in the future - hot dog eating competition anyone? So tune in if you want to know what to expect from our next batch of 100.
(And as always, if you have any suggestions, write to us using one of the methods below).
Finally, we weren't sure weâd ever reach this milestone, so thank you to anyone who listened along the way. Of all the things weâve tried and tested, this podcast is top of the list.

Hereâs one for anyone that chooses to get off their arse each week to exercise - taking Creatine Monohydrate to build dem muscles!
As one of the most researched supplements in the world, maybe youâve heard of it already.
And maybe you assumed itâs only chugged down by those bodybuilder lads after a fresh layer of tan.
But did you know, that itâs actually produced naturally by your body? ⊠WHA?!
In this episode we dive into the research behind taking creatine monohydrate - what does it do? Are there benefits? Or side effects? (Hair loss you say? What if you already have none??) And most importantly, is it even safe?
Then, weâll do what we always do - try this out for a week ourselves, to report back and let you know if itâs something you should bother with too.
Want to know what to expect with taking creatine or if itâs even worth it? Then listen in, you nosey little gym rat.
