We open the gnome vault and wander from Eurovision nostalgia to cult-film absurdity, then land on Tom Cruise stunts, a New Year’s resolutions countdown, and the most electric leg of darts at Ally Pally. It’s a lively tour of spectacle, fandom, and why shared silliness sticks.

• Eurovision voting memories and chaotic performances
• Cult cinema as joyful escape and meme fuel
• Franchise news, Henry Cavill moves, Bond speculation
• Tom Cruise’s cliff stunt and practical effects
• Top ten New Year’s resolutions and behaviour change
• Darts culture at Ally Pally and crowd theatre
• The greatest nine-darter and Wayne Mardle’s call

This week we share practical Christmas tips for parents, explore The Retro Room in Belfast for a blast of classic gaming fun, and count down our Top 5 Arcade Games of all time — from pixel legends to button-mashing chaos.

We also take a first look at Labubus, the collectible craze popping up everywhere, and ask the important questions: what are they, why are people obsessed, and should parents be worried?

If you love Christmas planning, retro arcades, classic video games, toy trends, and funny, relatable parenting conversations, this episode is for you.

Perfect listening for dads, parents, gamers, and anyone who loves a nostalgic first look at what’s trending right now.

Join the First Look Gnomes for another week of hilarious and unexpected discoveries! We kick things off with a first look at Whitewater Brewery — one of Northern Ireland’s most loved craft breweries — before heading to the beautiful seaside town of Newcastle, County Down for some family-friendly exploring.

Things get weird (in the best way) when we drive the famous “Magic Road” at Spelga Dam, where your car appears to roll uphill. Optical illusion? Witchcraft? Gnome mischief? We investigate.

Back home, we dive into the chaotic fun of Power Hungry Pets, the card game currently taking families by storm, and then switch gears with a look at the hugely popular kids’ show Grace’s Amazing Machines.

If you’re into Northern Ireland travel, quirky road trip spots, craft breweries, family games, or kids’ TV reviews, this episode is packed with first looks worth checking out. Grab a cuppa (or a pint) and join the adventure!
