  • 187: Sam met WHO???
    Jul 5 2026

    This week, the boys deep dive into all things football, from Pete's "football hooligan" reputation and favourite England players to some questionable school football memories.


    Sam reveals the truth about meeting certain A listers, shared what really happens when interviewing at Staying Relevant Productions, and opens up about home life now that a certain someone has moved in...


    Plus, Pete takes on a surprise M&S pistachio taste test, Sam gives his verdict on the huge GTA 6 launch, and they finish with one of their most chaotic games yet... featuring pigeons, football chants, Harry Styles and more... you'll never guess the connection.

  • Are SR Heading to America?
    Jul 1 2026

    Sam is still feeling a bit worse for wear from the TRICs on this bonus episode, which might explain some of the more baffling answers he gives to your questions. From the stat he’d most like floating above everyone’s head to whether he’d make a decent Prime Minister, Pete is left questioning whether he’s actually alright.


    The boys also compare screen time, with Pete shocked by his usage and attempting to justify it. This naturally leads into a chat about the 10 minutes of their lives they’d relive if they could. Sam’s answer somehow involves calling Pippa, while Pete’s, as expected, involves dogs.


    Plus, with two TRICs now under their belt, the boys look ahead to what’s next, and what their dream projects might look like from here.

  • 186: WE'RE WINNERS BABY!
    Jun 28 2026

    You are now listening to a TWO-TIME TRIC Award winning podcast! Oh yeah!


    From arriving at the ceremony on a pedibus (with BuzzBalls, Sam on the AUX and an unexpected fish and chips stop) to Sam's QUESTIONABLE victory speech and a slightly chaotic drive home... we relive every moment of an unforgettable night.


    Pete even got to hang out with the Made In Chelsea cast!


    It also turns out he can see the future as he made a terrifyingly accurate prediction about Molly Mae's baby name. Yes we are turning into the Molly Mae fan club.


    Elsewhere, Sam hosts the team for a BBQ but is left wondering why nobody appreciated his garden, while Pete shares his biggest pet peeves when people come over to his house - and reveals exactly when guests should know it's time to leave.

Should be the next Ant & Dec

I have loved Sam since Celebs go dating. I didn't even know who Pete was until Sam was on I'm a celebrity and Pete went to visit him in the jungle. I have to say, I was unsure about Pete, couldn't work out if he was Grumpy Dwarf or Snow white. He appeared to love Sam but hate him at the same time. I didn't really get it. This did mean that Pete was not on my list of favourite people and I probably did an eye roll whenever he was mentioned.
None the less, I loved Sam so much, I decided to give Staying Relevant a listen. What a great decision that was. I absolutely love this podcast. You two are the perfect pairing. Pete, I feel like I understand you more now, you are in fact both Grumpy Dwarf and Snow White (without the constant annoying singing and cleaning) and I LOVE it. I love how Pete hates everything and doesn't even care. Is it an act, or is he really like that? I think he really is like that, and has little tolerance for people, stupidity, and the world. (Me too Pete, me too)
Sam and your love for everything makes me so happy every time I listen to the podcast.
This is a great wholesome podcast of two wonderful people just doing life together and sharing their adventures with the rest of us. Please never stop what you are doing, I NEED Pete and Sam in my life!

Is Pete Grumpy Dwarf or Snow White?
