This week we take flight—literally. From Carlo Acutis, the world’s first digital saint, to the bloodsucking Irish legend of the Dearg Due that might just ruin your next trip to the pub, this episode packs both bite and blessing. Expect cultural tangents, personal anecdotes and the usual dose of questionable wisdom.

We also dive into the mysteries of male behaviour—like why peeing in bottles is apparently more common than anyone wants to admit—and the awkward realities of bathroom etiquette across genders. Add in revenge stories, pet dramas, and the occasional Dearg Due warning, and you’ve got a classic Meet in the Middle mix: sharp, funny and seriously entertaining.

Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

Season 5 kicks off with a bang (and a few questionable streams). Jake dives into Have You Heard with the viral tale of a missing Texan mum who resurfaced in the Scottish woods—ditching her kid to play handmaiden in a self-proclaimed tribal kingdom. TikTok rituals, forest robes and surrogate offers straight out of The Handmaid’s Tale—it’s all here.

Rachel launches her brand-new segment Boys Catch Yourselves On by confronting the lads about a grim but apparently universal male pastime: using piss power to blast toilet stains. Turns out, skid-mark sniping is a competitive sport, and James admits to cleaning other people’s sh*t in public loos. Classy. Danny returns with What the FAQ and introduces the word “fubsy,” which somehow leads to banana-shaped penises, curvy compliments, and a Victorian nickname for cats. Only on this podcast could all that make sense.

And to top it all off, Confessionals serve up a festive disaster—because nothing says Christmas like one dodgy decision and a secret you definitely wouldn’t want under the tree.

Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise

It’s episode 80 and the Freaky Friday Season Finale is officially off the rails. The hosts swap segments and nothing goes to plan. Rachel takes on Have You Heard with a scorcher—literally—as she digs into spontaneous human combustion and the bizarre mystery of the exploding chair. Danny steps into Agony Aunt with listener dilemmas including an unsolicited window sex show, a woman vabbing to attract men, and a virtual reality fling with a very real wife involved.

James drops What the FAQ with the word “cattywampus” and somehow connects it to the Victorian minge. Meanwhile, Jake runs Confessionals and shares stories of an adult DVD smuggled into a church sale and a Facebook group nightmare that went nuclear. High drama, low morals and the kind of oversharing we probably shouldn’t be allowed to broadcast.
