Tom and Rob are back with big opinions and bigger laughs. This week, they deep-dive into Sabrina Carpenter’s latest — and why Juno might be unfairly judged compared to decades of musical crimes. The duo also check out a fresh batch of Summer Blockbuster trailers, including the new Naked Gun movie (yes, really), and give their brutally honest takes.

Meanwhile, Tom and Gemma overhear a bizarre exchange in Tesco that you won’t believe. And to top it all off, Do You Remember makes its return with game-based nostalgia from both Tom and Rob.

Segments include:

🎵 Music Chat: Sabrina Carpenter & Juno

🎬 Summer Blockbusters: Trailer Reactions (incl. Naked Gun)

🛒 Tesco Talk: “It Tasted Wrong”

🕹️ Do You Remember: The Game Edition

🎙️ Episode Title: Battle of the AI Idiots 🤖🧠

In this wild ride of an episode, Tom and Rob are back—and things get chaotic fast. It’s man vs. machine, taste buds vs. awful treats, and common sense vs. That’s Life magazine. Buckle up.

👉 Find the Fake Headline

Tom’s trawled through the bizarre world of That’s Life magazine to find 7 real (and really bad) headlines—and he’s thrown in 3 fake ones for Rob to spot. Spoiler: they’re all awful.

👉 Adverts That Need to Chill

Tom’s got a bone to pick with two radio ads that have been driving him slowly insane. Get ready for a rant you didn’t know you needed.

👉 Taste Test: Pepsi Chaos Edition

Pepsi Cream Soda. Pepsi Strawberrys ‘n Cream. Exploded eggs. Three taste tests. Zero enthusiasm. Can anything redeem this fizzy disaster?

👉 Battle of the AI Agents: Gemini vs ChatGPT

It’s a tech showdown! We pit Google’s Gemini against OpenAI’s ChatGPT in three ridiculous challenges. Who’s the smarter AI—or the bigger idiot?

This episode has it all: weird headlines, AI face-offs, and questionable food choices. Hit play and join the madness. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share if you survive the exploded eggs.
