Ladles and jellyspoons – welcome back!Join me and Webby for another unfiltered Friday Freakout live from sunny Monte Cristos in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. We’re chatting football (Coventry’s big day!), snooker, horse racing, dodgy medical conditions (hello herniated disc!), dodgier betting tips, and just a whole lotta banter with our amazing online family.
We sang happy birthday to Tricia (twice!), talked about back pain, broke down the Championship playoff madness, and even tackled some proper British telly nostalgia. Oh – and I showed off my magic tricks again (they still can’t figure ’em out!).
Stick around for a few proper laughs, a few football hot takes, and some very dodgy singing.
