18 episodes   Last Updated: May 15, 25

Parallel parking when someone’s watching. Waving to get the bus driver to stop. Dropping something and having to pick it back up. It’s not just you, we know life is embarrassing for no reason.

Sam Darlaston and Tatum McGreal are two best mates bringing you a safe space to overthink things that don’t really matter (but we all know they do). Life’s awkward innit, so we might as well laugh.
