This week the lads dive headfirst into the wonderful chaos that is Eurovision. Was Sam Ryder robbed? Is the voting system completely broken? Should countries stop awarding points to each other and leave the whole thing to the public? And how did the UK’s entry become annoyingly catchy despite every instinct telling them it shouldn’t?

They also reveal plans for a very special upcoming Episode 85. A mystery walk around St Albans featuring five locations, five stories and one lie. With contributions from friends of the show including Karen, Adam, Simon, John and Drew Lusion, it’s shaping up to be one of the most ambitious things Studio:Channel84 has attempted.

The Chipmunk and Beaver return with another round of Badly Described Movies, sending Tom and Rob down increasingly ridiculous rabbit holes as they attempt to identify famous films from clues that are either brilliantly clever or downright cruel.

Meanwhile, the Snack Sack is packed once again. This episode features a pistachio-filled chocolate bar that feels suspiciously familiar, a cookie dough experiment that raises more questions than answers, and a new flavour of Walkers crisps that sparks an unexpectedly passionate debate about gravy.

There’s also discussion of TFL strike misery, Christmas decorations appearing far too early, questionable Eurovision ambitions, parenting realities, and a heated edition of Best Left In The 90s as two iconic 90s songs go head-to-head with only one surviving the trip back to the present day.

As always, expect pop culture, nostalgia, food reviews, terrible opinions, accidental filth, and two middle-aged dads somehow ending up talking about beavers for far longer than anyone intended.

No usual chaos. No Rob. No ridiculous debates (well… mostly). Just Tom, out on a late-night walk, talking honestly about something that’s shaped far more of life than he ever realised: ADHD.

After being diagnosed with adult ADHD at 42, Tom opens up about what the process actually looked like — from NHS Right to Choose referrals, therapy, and diagnosis, to trying ADHD medication including methylphenidate, lisdexamfetamine and atomoxetine. But this isn’t a medical guide. It’s the messy, personal reality of what happens when you finally start understanding why your brain works the way it does.

From doomscrolling and low mood, to self-esteem, procrastination, rejection sensitivity, masking, overthinking and the constant mental noise that never really switches off, this is an honest conversation about the bits of ADHD and depression that people don’t always talk about — especially in adults.

Tom also gets candid about struggling this week, the reality of feeling burnt out, why “ADHD is a superpower” doesn’t sit right with everyone, and what happens when medication side effects hit harder than expected.

It’s not the usual Variety Show energy — but if you’ve ever wondered what adult ADHD actually feels like, struggled with mental health, or know someone going through diagnosis later in life, maybe this one will resonate.

There is still a tiny bit of normality, though… because no episode would be complete without a questionable taste test, this time involving Sprite Zero Mint, mojito comparisons, toothpaste vibes and immediate regret.

Normal chaos resumes next episode.

#ADHD #AdultADHD #MentalHealth #ADHDMedication #Depression

This episode spirals through customer service rage, impossible-to-understand song lyrics, and one of the strangest debates we’ve had yet: if X-Men mutations are real, did we all get the absolute worst powers? Ear rumbling, eyebrow lifting and nostril flaring are apparently not enough to save humanity.

We dive back into another round of illegible lyrics featuring songs you definitely know… but probably never understood. Expect heated opinions, terrible guesses and a growing concern that some legendary singers may simply refuse to pronounce words properly.

Snack Sack returns with sweet treats, imported oddities and a salt & vinegar experience that may qualify as a minor chemical incident. There are wins, disasters and at least one snack that should probably apologise for existing.

We also revisit peak nostalgia with a challenge built around classic TV memories, weirdly specific childhood viewing habits and the kind of programming schedule that absolutely shaped an entire generation. Plus: a musical showdown where one iconic 90s anthem faces total destruction while another fights for survival.

Elsewhere, there’s parenting chaos, bizarre kids’ playlists, questionable spam emails, nostalgia-fuelled nonsense, and the usual amount of rude, fun, unfiltered stupidity from Rob & Tom.

New episodes every other Monday from The Variety Show at Studio:Channel84.

The long-running cap gun saga finally gets its “satisfactory ending” — involving a suspiciously realistic cheap plastic gun, Russian/Ukrainian caps, and the discovery that modern versions are somehow louder, smokier, and more likely to explode the toy itself. Along the way, Rob and Tom question safety warnings, childhood chaos, and whether anyone actually followed the rules in the 90s.

From there, things take a hard turn into music — specifically Peter Gabriel. From the brilliance of Sledgehammer and Solsbury Hill to the baffling lyrics of The Book of Love, the debate quickly becomes: how did we get here?

Then it’s time for the Snack Sack — featuring Korean Pepero sticks, a bizarre chocolate “Cornetto” knock-off with unexpected flavours, and an aggressively sweet strawberry goo snack that nearly ends the episode via sugar overload. Ratings are handed out, regrets are shared, and sleep is officially cancelled.

The chaos continues with a brand new game segment built around links.

The main event? The Shopping Centre Challenge. Rob and Tom build their dream shopping centres using A–Z shops — from Blockbuster, Woolworths and Toys R Us to Greggs, Nando’s and Safeway. It quickly spirals into nostalgia, arguments, and the harsh reality that one of these fictional shopping centres would absolutely go bankrupt.

Finally, in Was It Best Left in the 90s?, two 1997 charity songs go head-to-head — and only one survives. Spoiler: Bono never stood a chance.

It’s rude, chaotic, nostalgic, and exactly what you expect.

#nostalgia #90s #snacks #shopping #music

The episode opens with an unexpected Peppa Pig monologue that turns into a full-blown character assassination of Daddy Pig, Peppa, and the entire family dynamic. It’s not the Peppa Pig take you were expecting.

From there the chaos continues with The Chipmunk Challenge, introducing a brand new game called Mouth Trap. The rules sound simple: explain a word without using the obvious clues. In reality it quickly turns into a frantic guessing game involving Minecraft, Mario, Alien, spaghetti, and classic playground games. Tom and Rob attempt to beat the Chipmunk at her own game — with varying levels of competence.

Then comes the Snack Sack, and this might be one of the strangest taste tests we’ve ever done.

First up are two imported drinks: a jasmine peach soda that tastes suspiciously medicinal, followed by a Chinese lime soda that somehow becomes one of the best drinks ever tried on the show, earning an instant perfect score.

But the real disaster arrives with a snack called Crispy Cluck — a chocolate treat designed to look like fried chicken. It sounds ridiculous. It looks ridiculous. And once opened… it somehow manages to be even worse than expected.

As if that wasn’t enough, the conversation veers into 90s music nostalgia, with Jive Bunny’s rock-and-roll mega mix battling Alanis Morissette’s “Ironic” for survival. Along the way, a revelation about The Beautiful South’s “Don’t Marry Her” proves the radio version most people grew up hearing isn’t actually the real lyric.

Also featuring: cap gun nostalgia, Apple Watch sleep scores that make no sense, spam emails that refuse to stop arriving, and the ongoing mystery of why our podcast seems to be blocked in Russia.

It’s rude, chaotic, nostalgic and completely unfiltered — exactly how The Variety Show likes it.

It starts with a nostalgic trip down memory lane with cap bombs — those plastic missile-shaped toys loaded with paper caps that produced a satisfyingly loud bang and that unforgettable sulphur smell. Of course, that innocent nostalgia quickly escalates into stories of childhood creativity involving firecrackers from France, homemade explosive experiments, and a mysterious series of exploding dog bins in St Albans.

Then the show takes a turn into one of the strangest corners of pop culture: lyrics that nobody can actually understand. Rob challenges Tom with a quiz featuring songs from Blur, Green Day, Nirvana, System of a Down, Gorillaz, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Barenaked Ladies, proving that half the music we’ve sung along to for decades might as well be complete gibberish unless you’ve read the lyrics sheet.

Naturally, this leads to a rant about the internet’s obsession with fake “misheard lyrics” like “we built this city on sausage rolls” — because apparently the internet thinks everyone hears songs about processed meat.

There’s also a chaotic Snack Sack segment featuring a bizarre giant peelable mango gummy, suspicious Galaxy Flutes, and surprisingly brilliant maple bacon waffle crisps from Aldi. One snack scores a rare top rating… another absolutely does not.

Elsewhere, the episode veers into classic 90s pop culture, including Billy Piper’s early pop career, the tragedy of animated classics like The Land Before Time, and the discovery of a genuinely disturbing banned Tweenies episode parodying Jimmy Savile.

It’s nostalgic, slightly unhinged, occasionally educational, and proof that the 90s were a much less supervised time to grow up.

New episodes of The Variety Show drop every two weeks from Studio:Channel84.

#MisheardLyrics #90sMusic #90sNostalgia #RetroToys #SnackReview

Tom and Rob start with movies, including the Netflix sci-fi action film War Machine, which unexpectedly turns into a full appreciation segment for Alan Ritchson. There’s also a chat about the different eras of Spider-Man films, why Andrew Garfield might be underrated, and how modern blockbuster movies compare to the classics we grew up with.

Gaming chaos follows as the lads talk about introducing kids to video games. From the early disasters of Minecraft parenting to the surprisingly perfect starter game Goat Simulator 3, they discuss how modern kids jump straight into huge open-world games like Spider-Man 2 when we all started with a joystick and one button.

Then comes the Chipmunk Challenge — a quiz of badly described films that somehow manages to confuse two grown men who claim to love movies. Expect terrible clues, wild guesses, and the realisation that some films sound completely unhinged when described badly.

The food segment returns with a seasonal classic as Rob tries a Cadbury Creme Egg for the first time ever. The result? Let’s just say the sweetness causes immediate regret.

Finally, the Snack Sack returns with a drinks special featuring Sprite Lemon & Lime Tea, Coca-Cola Cherry Float, and Pepsi Max Tropical. One of them is surprisingly brilliant. One is deeply confusing. One is absolutely awful.

Add in a rant about the so-called worst songs of the 90s, a nostalgic discussion about Easter eggs, and plenty of completely unnecessary Alan Ritchson jokes… and you’ve got Episode 76.

Rude. Fun. Unfiltered.

#WarMachine #UKComedyPodcast #PopCulturePodcast #SnackSack #AlanRitchson

With less than 24 hours before release, Rob and TJ hit record and commit to a raw 60-minute, no-edit episode. No music. No safety net. Just parenting exhaustion, 90s nostalgia, snack reviews, and an unexpectedly furious Peppa Pig rant.

Yes. We’re talking about Daddy Pig.

The episode spirals (in a good way) through Peppa Pig’s portrayal of dads, questionable Bluey books, bedtime story chaos, and whether kids’ shows secretly hate fathers. From “Daddy Pig’s Lost Keys” to fairground sexism and archery stalls, nothing is safe.

Then it’s onto pure nostalgia fuel: a 90s sound quiz featuring ... see if you can guess. This one will hit hard.

We also revisit Ambassadors of Funk’s 1992 Super Mario Land track and ask: was it best left in the 90s, or does it still slap?

Snack Sack returns with:

• Caramel Penguins (that barely taste like caramel)
• Japanese Toppo vanilla biscuit sticks (deeply underwhelming)
• Lay’s Numb & Spicy Hot Pot crisps (absolute redemption arc)

There’s also film spinner chat, No Country for Old Men love, Hopper reactions, studio updates, and the joy of rediscovering retro tech like Doom, DOS prompts and CRT start-up sounds.

It’s rude. It’s chaotic. It’s unfiltered. And somehow… it works.

Rob drills into his wall and discovers a soggy brickwork nightmare thanks to porous coping stones (because nothing says fun like unexpected water damage). Meanwhile, Tom discovers his robot vacuum has been secretly sabotaging him with a “Do Not Disturb” mode that basically means “Do Not Clean.”

We dive into The Snack Sack Taste Test featuring:

🍫 Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cream Eggs

🍫 Milky Bar Crunch

🍫 Questionable hazelnut wafers

Spoiler: not everything deserves a comeback.

Then it’s full throttle into 2026 movie trailer reactions — including Super Mario Galaxy, Mortal Kombat 2, Project Hail Mary, Masters of the Universe, Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, and more. Are we hyped? Are we worried? Are we just old?

And finally… we revisit a late 90s girl band hit in Was It Best Left in the 90s?

Let’s just say… Ireland deserved better.

Builders. Bots. Bangers.

Rude. Fun. Unfiltered.

This episode starts with the usual nonsense before Tom absolutely loses it over a baffling Wickes “Proud as a Peacock” advert, followed by a full-blown Guess the Company, Guess the Slogan quiz featuring iconic campaigns from Gillette, Toys R Us, Pot Noodle, Xbox, Milky Way, Barclaycard, the National Lottery, and more.

There’s also a Snack Sack taste test, where things go from pleasantly surprising to deeply regrettable thanks to maple mochi, Neapolitan Kit Kats, and cheeseburger crisps that probably shouldn’t exist.

Then… we descend into darkness.

The main discussion takes a hard look at The Animals of Farthing Wood, breaking down why it may be one of the most traumatising children’s TV shows ever broadcast. We dig into the 24 on-screen and implied deaths, revisit the most disturbing moments, and ask the important question: how did this air after school?

Expect bad adverts, great slogans, terrible snacks, dead cartoon animals, and live reactions throughout.

In Episode 72 of The Variety Show, Tom and Rob return for another round of nostalgic nonsense, snack-based investigations and passionate rants that spiral wildly out of control. There’s a new season taste test format, a deep dive into modern Lego ruining childhoods, questionable chocolate scoring systems, a Journey Through Middle-Earth fitness challenge, and a snack so good it accidentally gets renamed forever.

Expect:

🍫 A legendary Choc Dip slip-up

🧱 A furious Lego rant

🏃 FitQuest step challenges and VR workouts

🎶 Retro chart nonsense from the year 2000

🎄 Christmas aftermath chaos

😏 And far too many things being dipped into sacks

It’s chaotic. It’s nostalgic. It’s filthy. And it’s absolutely on brand.

For the final episode of the year, Tom and Rob leave the studio behind and take a festive wander through two familiar towns to answer one important question: which one actually feels like Christmas?

Armed with nostalgia, sharp opinions, and a suspicious number of LED complaints, the boys walk through Hemel Hempstead and St Albans, judging Christmas lights, trees, town centres, and the general festive “vibe” — while discovering that colour appears to be illegal in modern Christmas decorating.

Along the way there are disappointing trees, baffling design choices, Instagram-bait decorations, knitted postbox toppers, and one genuinely Christmassy saviour hidden away in the Maltings. There’s also a gloriously retro detour into 90s Nokia ringtone culture, as Rob attempts to identify classic Christmas songs recreated using a vintage Nokia composer emulator.

Add Liebkuchen taste-testing, childhood memories, mild outrage, and the slow realisation that it’s far too late at night for Christmas lights to still be on — and you’ve got the perfect cosy, chaotic send-off for 2025.

Merry Christmas from The Variety Show, and we’ll see you in 2026 🎄

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… and also the most unhinged. Episode 70 marks our annual UK Christmas Adverts & Snack Ratings Spectacular, where Tom and Rob take on 18 adverts and 18 festive treats in a marathon of ho-ho-ho’s, ho-ho’s, and the occasional definitive no-no-no.

This year’s lineup includes everything from robot cars in San Francisco, the eternal question of whether Titanic is a Christmas film, Benedict Cucumber-Snatch’s Grinch legacy, Asda’s “Very Merry Grinchmas,” and the kind of baffling advert casting choices that can only happen in December. Keira Knightley? Joe Wilkinson? Cheese counters? Sure.

Alongside the ads, the table is absolutely covered in snacks: Skittles drinks, spicy crisps, imported German Liebkuchen Rounds that may have spiritually changed one of the hosts, and enough sugar to put the Reindeer Union out of business. Expect passion, confusion, festive arguments, emotional breakdowns over bakery products, and a lot of surprisingly deep food analysis.

If you love Christmas adverts, hate Christmas adverts, or simply like listening to two grown men slowly lose structural integrity across 90+ minutes… this is your episode.

Before that, Tom shares his upcoming San Francisco trip, an exploding schedule, and the legendary “goat joke” that nearly cancelled the show in under 90 seconds. Then: a nostalgia quiz of 80s and 90s theme tunes — from Banana Man to Fraggle Rock — complete with VHS-quality audio and the return of Bertha’s questionable accents.

The middle of the episode melts into absolute advertising chaos:

– Walkers’ “delicioussss” mouth-sounds terror

– The unnervingly AI-generated Coca-Cola Christmas advert

– The truly cursed Mo & Mia boiler mouse PSA

– McDonald’s disastrous voice-note delivery ad

– Tom & Rob both record their own voice-note versions, and yes, they are worse.

Later, the boys ask: Has the death of terrestrial TV secretly killed our Christmas spirit? A surprisingly wholesome (and sad) reflection about festive adverts, Argos catalogues, and why no one gets the magic anymore.

Finally: The 90s song that time should have left behind — Bus Stop’s remix of Kung Fu Fighting — and the shocking confession that Tom once bought it on CD from Woolworths.

It’s chaos. It’s nostalgia. It’s horrifying dolls. It’s Episode 69.

First up, the boys attempt to ruin famous films by adding just one word — from Schindler’s Shopping List to Lord of the Ringtone and A Clockwork Terry’s Orange, nothing is sacred. Listener submissions from Simon (Who Takes the Socks Off), Adam (Lightly Used) and James (Super A to Z) keep the game going right to the credits.

Then it’s Millennials vs Gen Z as Tom’s daughter Kay reads out baffling new slang — “cap”, “delulu”, “peak”, “riz” and “sigma” — while the dads try to decode what any of it means. Expect pure generational meltdown.

Things only escalate when they discover Club Bars, Penguins, and Wagon Wheels are no longer legally classed as chocolate. Cue furious nostalgia, a tangent on why Disney keeps remaking everything, and a plea for originality before the cocoa runs dry.

Finally, it’s a five-way Taste Test:

• Vanilla Latte Oreos ☕
• Golden Wonder Chippies (Gravy Flavour) 🍟
• Gingerbread Digestives (Festive Edition)
• Maltesers Mini Reindeers (Gingerbread Flavour) 🦌
• Kit Kat Chunky Rolo Edition 🍫

Which snacks rise to the occasion and which get cancelled completely?

Plus, Was It Best Left in the 90s? returns with Fat Les’ “Vindaloo” — should it stay in ’98 or make a comeback?

It’s over-caffeinated, over-opinionated and over an hour of British nostalgia mayhem.

Finally, “Was It Best Left in the 90s?” asks whether girl group Vanilla’s No Way No Way should have stayed in the bargain bin. Expect laughter, chaos, nostalgia, and more birthday-fueled nonsense than your ears can legally handle.

👶 Toddler Trouble: Nursery drop-offs are a battlefield, with floppy kids, sticker charts, and endless soft play bribes.

🎶 Song Contest Update: Rob finally gets his music software working, while Tom wonders if his own tune is doomed to stay unpolished forever.

🍬 Japanese Taste Test: From crystal bottle treats to candy hamburgers and the world’s saltiest dried plums (which lead to spitting, gagging, and regret), the boys try it all.

🎵 The Big Music Game: Inspired by Richard Osman’s House of Games, Rob must guess the exact second when lyrics kick in across 10 tracks from his favourite bands. Will he nail it, or just embarrass himself? (Spoiler: it’s messy.)

📼 Back to the 90s: Visa Electron vs Solo cards, collecting phone cards, and a rewatch of the Spice World (1997) trailer. The nostalgia is strong, the jokes are questionable, and the memories are peak playground era.

🎬 Outro: A shoutout to Spice World 1997, which Tom and Rob will be watching (and tearing apart) for the next episode!

🎶 Music Contest Catch-Up – The podcast song contest rumbles on, but can the lads finally agree on the rules? Tom and Rob argue, negotiate and maybe bend things just enough to keep the competition alive. Expect laughs, debates and plenty of off-the-cuff music talk.

👻 Ghunt at Hitchin British Schools Museum – Tom braved the famously spooky classrooms of the British Schools Museum on his latest ghost hunt. From eerie corridors to haunted air raid shelters, he brings back chilling tales and paranormal chatter, while Rob provides the sceptical (and sarcastic) commentary.

🎧 TikTok Sleep Earphones – Can a pair of £3 sleep headphones from TikTok really be any good? Tom has tested them out and tries to convince Rob they’re worth the price. Expect tech chat, comedy digs and maybe even a shopping list update if Rob caves in.

🥤🍜 Japan Special Taste Test – The highlight of the show. Tom and Rob dive into a mountain of Japanese snacks and drinks, including fizzy marble-popping Hata Ramune sodas, a cola twist, and a surprise sparkling orange cola from China. On the snack side it’s crunchy Baby Star Crispy Ramen Noodles in a variety of bold flavours: classic Original, tangy Yakisoba, rich Tonkotsu and punchy Garlic. Sweet, savoury, fizzy and crunchy chaos all in one taste test.

🔄 TikTok Reverse Audio Trend – The Mini Chipmunk has spoken, and Tom and Rob are forced into another TikTok challenge. Can they really talk in reverse and make sense of it, or will it end in total nonsense and laughter? A ridiculous finale with guaranteed giggles.

• 🎵 Intro & Monthly Song Challenge — Tom sets the bar high: can anyone make a song in just one month?
• 🐿️ The Chipmunk’s 30 Second Challenge — 10 rapid-fire questions, 30 seconds, and all answers must begin with the same letter. Will either of them survive?
• 🍫🥤 Taste Test — Creamola gets its redemption round, Mexican Orange Fanta is cracked open, and two daring Jaffa Cake flavours (Yuzu Lemon & Hot Honey) face judgment.
• 🎬 Knock-Off Film Challenge — The Chipmunk pitches 10 bootleg movies; Tom and Rob must conjure copyright-free titles.
• 🚸⚡ Being a Kid Was Scary as Hell — A trip down memory lane through classic UK safety films that terrified a generation: trains, power lines, playground dangers and more.

👉 Nostalgia, laughs, questionable snacks, and a healthy dose of trauma — exactly what you need in your podcast feed this week!

The disturbing PSA YouTube playlist is here:

📱 What Apps Do You Use?

Tom & Rob kick things off by sharing the apps they think everyone should have on their phones. From IMDb for film buffs, to Common Sense Media for parents, to Speedtest for techies, the boys compare notes and reveal a few underrated gems that deserve a spot on your home screen.

🥤 Taste Test: Creamola Foam & Coca-Cola Lime

It’s a fizzy trip down memory lane as Tom & Rob crack open Creamola Foam — the legendary retro drink — in Cola, Cherry, and Irn Bru flavours. But will nostalgia deliver, or does it fall flat? They also give Coca-Cola’s new full sugar Lime a go… but is it refreshing or revolting?

🐧 Pingu Has a Banned Episode

Pingu, the adorable stop-motion penguin, once had an episode banned — but why? The guys watch it live and try to figure out what was so controversial about a clay penguin and his snowy antics. Prepare for theories, giggles, and maybe even a little “noot noot.”

🎶 Tom’s Reverse Music Quiz

To round things off, Tom flips 10 popular 90s songs backwards to see if Rob can identify them. Will he smash it, or will the quiz end in chaotic humming and wild guesses? Play along at home and test your own 90s knowledge.

It’s an episode full of apps, fizz, banned penguins, and backwards nostalgia — don’t miss Episode 63 of The Variety Show!

🕹️ Intro

Tom’s got a full-sized Golden Tee arcade machine in his office — because obviously. Meanwhile, The Range is already pushing Christmas and we are NOT OK with it.

💬 SMS Interruption

A sudden message sparks debate: how did people actually hold the Infinity Stones? No answers, just more questions.

🌞 Rob’s Trip to Florida

Theme parks, heatwaves, and fast food-induced delirium. Rob walks us through the highs and lows of his Floridian adventure.

🍫 Taste Test

Brace yourselves for:

– White Maltesers

– Salted Caramel Twix

– White Dipped Twirl

– Dairy Milk Iced Latte

One of them is basically a mouthful of lies.

📺 Advertising Woes

We tackle the most baffling adverts known to man:

– Lynx and its “sniffable body parts”

– Flora’s wrestling story arc

– Quaker Oats’ and Uncle Gruber

…plus a few more campaigns that need to be heard to be believed.

👋 Outro

Thanks for joining us for another walk through weirdness. As always, rate, follow, and tell your mates — unless you’re Uncle Gruber.

There’s a meaty Pringle Taste Test Quiz (Smokey Bacon, Flame Grilled Steak, Blazin’ Fried Chicken, Smokin’ BBQ Ribs, Paprika, and Stakz Original), a fizzy drinks showdown featuring Dr Pepper Blackberry and Coca-Cola’s wildest flavours, plus an American candy session with Butterfinger, US Milky Way, Hershey, and Almond Joy.

And to top it all off? A ridiculous “fill in the blanks” quiz from Ginger Beard Mark based on Take A Break magazine.

Satan,. Crisps. Roman chaos. It’s all here.

In this episode:

🤖 Superman’s Practical Robots?!

The boys are blown away to discover that the robot effects in the new Superman footage are all real, practical effects. No CGI cheats here – just old-school movie magic that’s got them hyped!

👃 The TikTok Nose Clip Review

Tom tried one of those viral TikTok nose clips… and spoiler alert: it’s absolute rubbish. Get ready for a mini rant that’ll save you a fiver and some dignity.

❄️ Amazon’s Cooling Blanket – Gamechanger?

From sweaty nights to arctic bliss – Tom gives his glowing review of an Amazon product that actually does what it says on the label. Could this be the ultimate summer lifehack?

🕹️ Favourite Arcade Machines

From Sega Rally to Time Crisis, the lads reminisce about the golden age of arcades. Which machines did they sink their pocket money into, and which ones still live rent-free in their memories?

🏛️ Which Public Places Actually Exist??

Rob faces the ultimate quiz: are these wild public attractions real or fake?

• The Vagina Museum? Real.
• A Butt Sniffing Emporium? Hmmm…Hilarity ensues as we test his trivia chops.

🍫 Mars vs Knock-Off Taste Test

Time for a chocolate battle! Mars Bars and Milky Ways go head-to-head with supermarket knock-offs in a blind taste test. Will the big brands win, or do the budget bars come out on top?

👋 Outro & Community Update

The usual roundup, including how to follow, subscribe and engage… plus a big announcement: The Variety Show now has its own Reddit community! Come join the nonsense.

Whether you’re here for the nostalgia, laughs, taste tests, or totally unnecessary trivia, this episode has a bit of everything.

🟠 Popping Boba Mango

🧡 Irn Bru 1601

🍫 Caramilk Crunchie Bites

🥛 Milky Way Milkshake

What’s a refreshing delight and what tastes like regret? Find out.

Then in Do You Remember, Tom quizzes Rob on the forgotten world of Kinder Surprise toys — can Rob remember his rubbery, click-together childhood?

Next, it’s Guess the Music: 90s TV Edition — can Rob match classic theme tunes to nostalgic British shows like Grandstand, Robot Wars, Hollyoaks, Beadle’s About, and Supermarket Sweep?

Finally, Tom lets rip in an Insurance Rant: is car insurance the biggest con in the UK? The boys have thoughts — and none of them are polite.

In this packed episode of The Variety Show, Tom and Rob are back with a mix of nostalgia, nonsense, and nerdy delights:

Taste Test

The duo dive into a sugar-fuelled taste test featuring:

• Fanta Tutti Frutti
• Dairy Milk Biscoff
• Dairy Milk &More
• Munchies Orange

Which treat triumphs and which one should be launched into space?

Hot Shots Part Drei

What would happen in a third Hot Shots movie? Tom and Rob imagine the explosive, spoof-filled return of Topper Harley—and yes, Charlie Sheen is back in action.

There’s a Problem with Bluey

Tom spots a recurring issue in the wholesome world of Bluey… and it’s wasteful. Is this animated food faux-pas getting out of hand?

Crazy Laws

Real or fake? The card game “Crazy Laws” puts the lads to the test as they try to separate fact from fiction in the world of weird legislation.

GTA 6 Delayed to 2026

Rockstar’s blockbuster sequel has been pushed back. Is it a tech issue or a move to avoid another Cyberpunk-style catastrophe?

All this plus tangents, laughs, and maybe a few legally questionable jokes. Subscribe, share, and tell a mate!

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.

Film character ages

Can Rob guess the age of characters in film and television? Will he get higher or lower right? Let's just say Stiffler's Mum was a surprise for all of us!

French Treats and Tangy Tots

France was a let done last episode, will they make up for it with their sweet snacks? Tom also finds new Jelly Tots in Tesco.

T has stopped asking 'Why'

T no longers asks Rob 'Why' to everything he is told. This means something else must be happening.. What's he about to start asking? We also share controversial ways to deal with the dreaded 'Why'.

Films are how old now?

Back in episode 1, Tom made Rob feel old by making him guess how long ago certain films were released. In this episode, we take a look at 10 more and force him to guess the year of their release.

France makes Tom Angry

After a 21 hour day, delayed flights, emergency maneuvers and poor airport retail choices, how else are you meant to feel?

Phones make Rob Angry

What do mean it needs to be wrapped? Rob breaks his phone screen and has to hastily use birthday wrapping paper for DPD.

Popular YouTubers and K make Tom Angry

What, people can be popular on YouTube and it not be aimed at Tom or Rob?

Bing on repeat for T makes Tom Angry

No, we're not talking the search engine. Instead we're looking at the whiniest of little turds called Bing bunny.

This was only meant to be a 10 minute session but Rob had other ideas.. We rant dogs, plants being eaten, Currys selling McAfee and people peeing on the toilet seat.

Complete the Slogan Quiz

Another day, another quiz. How many British slogans can you remember from Toms list?

Red Nose Day

It's been 40 years since this charitable cause was created, what do you remember? What was your favourite nose?

What is Retro Rambles?

Retro Rambles is a new series where Tom interviews people about their gaming history. Every person will get the same questions:

• Your first gaming memory
• First console you were bought / or you bought
• The game shop you remember most
• Worst gaming memory / let down moment
• Retro or Modern gaming, which would you choose?
• What's your desert island game

Want to be on a Retro Ramble?

Drop Tom an e-mail on tj@channel84.co.uk and we'll try to sort something out. It might not be straight away BUT as long as I can get to you (or vice versa), then it should happen.

Adam Sent a Question

Sadly the SD card corrupted and our recorder started playing silly buggers. We caught some of the conversation but had to change it out straight after. Sorry Adam!

Do You Remember

Friend of the show (and Tom and Rob) Andy has sent a Do You Remember. Will he win a point? Two cheeky presents also turned up..

Elf on a Shelf:Redux

Tom's made a short film - he's not sorry and yes, we're all worried about him:

https://youtu.be/drOdS1gggP8

Christmas Presents

It's time to do low energy gift exchanges..

Can I Cluck it?

The Chipmonks (plural!) have set Tom and Rob some songs to cluck, how will the handle this festive, musical game?

Rob has an update to the build at his house - could this be the final update?

Random Gift

Rob has bought an amazing surprise gift for Tom as a thank you for ‘putting up with the Star Trek S***’.

Iceland Sausage

Tom’s been to Iceland with all the mums, he bought a giant sausage. Rob has reservations about gobbling Tom’s sausage but he’s not going to get the choice. Om nom nom.

Story Game

Tom has a card game from his kids Christmas toy collection.. Can the boys make a family friendly story or will they be their normal, gross selves?

The Official Father Christmas Game

Rob has never played on a ZX Spectrum, shocking I know. Tom introduces him to the best 8-Bit home machine by making him play Alternate Softwares - The Official Father Christmas Game. This is heavily abridged for the podcast; if you would like to see the whole game and Robs effort, please check out YouTube here:

Rob's Penis

IT TOUCHED SOMETHING, SOMETHING BAD.

Christmas Lights

Is it just Tom and Rob or are town Christmas decorations getting worse and worse with each passing year? Expect to hear them talk while wearing rose tinted glasses. There will most likely be a lot of ranting and moaning too..

What’s the Perfect Christmas Film to start December with?

Tom and Rob choose which film is the best to start the Christmas period with. Will you agree? Is it always Elf? Maybe you love a bit of 'Stop or my Mum will shoot'. You tell us!

The great big Advert Taste Test thing

Neither of the boys watch terrestrial TV anymore, it means they don’t know when they can buy a sofa in time for Christmas delivery OR what the major brands did on TV this year. Join Tom and Rob as they taste festive treats so you don’t have to, and watch 15 of the UKs ‘finest’ adverts.

Like last episodes firework craptacular, the final section of this episode will also be up on YouTube now! Link here:

The McRib is back

They've both tasted it but the question is: has Rustlers done it better?

Autism and ADHD

A serious discussion for once on the show with Rob and Tom taking NHS approved pre-tests for Autism and ADHD. The answers surprised even them.

Rob has got Tom hooked on yet another video game. This time it's full on cult action involving lambs and sodomy. No, we really aren't lying.

Spoilers: Deadpool & Wolverine

Rob has purchased Deadpool & Wolverine, is it good? Was the wait worth it?

My Oldmans a Dustman

Tom has taught T and K some.. questionable songs. What songs did the boys get taught as kids and is Robs dad a big fat liar?

Birthday Quiz

Tom has made Rob a birthday quiz based on the year of his birth, 1985. Rob also bought Japanese snacks for us to enjoy at the same time.

Tom's been a DIRTY boy

We've all had to break a toilet once, haven't we? You know, that sort of emergency toilet rush that makes you leave embarrassed. No? Oh dear, you might not want to hear what's coming up then.

Renault are pricks

You heard it here first! Renault don't want to honour Toms warranty for his Megane, then treat him like a dick on the telephone.

Diagnosis K

A serious topic for once! Tom's K has a diagnosis finally and all parents should listen to him talk about it.

Taste Testing drinks

Three drinks up for testing this week and one has the ability to, well, cause cancer apparently. Holy shit how do these things get sold?!

A totally not stolen segment

Ok, so we might have stolen a segment from a much older, more popular and funnier podcast than our own. It's ok though as the Chipmunk set it. Join us as the boys test Jaffa Cakes, Jelly Babies and Fruit Pastilles from 3 different brands.

Film Talk

Rob sat through Madame Web and hated every second of it. Tom on the other hand got to see Trap and BeetleJuice Beetle Juice. Who do you think got the short straw?

Oasis or Noasis

A smaller rant than normal but as you can imagine, one of us didn't get a ticket to the reunion tour.

The Muppet Film Game

A lot of fun was had in what can only be considered ruining many peoples childhood favourites. The boys replace actors in films with the Muppets and we assure you, one goes hard and dark.

Unboxing Spider-Man

Spider-Man or should I say Pidmr-Man get's unboxed. Questions are asked including: why does he look like he's being filmed for Crime Watch and where was he touched?

Ranting

Should family pools be warm or cold? Should Curry’s look at its hiring policy and ban Pringles?

Socks

Toms wife thinks he’s a freak for how he takes his socks off, do you agree?

Do You Remember

Another trip to the memory vaults for Tom and Rob, who will walk away with a prize? Prison Pigeon also turns up and makes things miserable as normal.

Taste Test

A random dig in the bag of goodness before tasting the dirty blue Pepsi. I think you can tell where the scores are heading already.

T's been watching YouTube Kids again

Every now and then, the kids get to watch YouTube Kids and guess what, it's not always good. Rob, overhears something and wants Tom to confirm that indeed, it sounds ruder than it actually was. It's Heart radio all over again!

Temu Wins

Tom has been wasting money on Temu but insists, it's actually really good. Why don't you decide? Tangents then happen and the boys get ranting about TikTok, Facebook and X fake advertising of products.

Taste Testing to the max

Tom makes Rob taste test a dodgy branded beer before getting hyped on sugar. Today the boys test out:

• Sunkist Mango Orange
• Fanta Tropical (foreign)
• Coke Spiced
• Tango Cherry and Raspberry Blast

Without ruining it, there are some pretty bad scores coming your way,

Bad Luck

Tom, according to Rob, is a Psychopath because he opens things from the bottom and not the top. The boys do a quick dive in to what they know about bad luck, before seeing if Rob can identify 'real' bad luck situations from around the world.

Tarot

Remember that thing Rob did for Halloween? Yes, Tarot reading and it's about time he makes use of his new skill. Tom wants a Tarot reading and it leads to some uncomfortable truths.

Ghost Hunting in Peterborough

Thanks to Paul Gannon (CheapShow, I ain't afraid of no ghosts etc), Tom and Rob were invited on a true to life, serious Ghost Hunt at Peterborough museum. With celebrity guests including Mr Biffo and Sanja, Stuart Ashens and Ryan Livermore, the boys do their best to find ghostly goings on.

Our video will be out in about two weeks times from release of this episode (21st July). If you would like to see an incredibly good film from the weekend, check out Digitser over on YouTube where their latest video is now live:

Heart Radio issues

Tom and Rob have no idea about the watershed and radio in the UK but, does it really matter? Did Gemma and K hear what they think they heard? See if you can tell whether The Bar Song swears or not.

Blue Death

Remember when Tom made Rob suck the Black Death? This time it's blue and it's not pretty. Thanks to Mr.Simms the Olde Fashioned Sweet shop in Milton Keynes for stocking these. We paid for them and totally regret doing that.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

In the summer of 1999, the UK and rest of the world got one of the finest musical movies ever to be released. Tom and Rob celebrate 25 years of the fantastic South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, reliving their favourite memories and songs. They then finish recounting their fave bits of the TV show.

AI Sound Effect Quiz

In a world rapidly being taken over by AI, Tom makes Rob guess generated sound effects. Can he tell the difference between a Guinea Pig and Balloon? Maybe he'll identify a Velociraptor against a fart.

Skepticism

Tom and Rob elude to a future project and what their stance is on Ghosts and UFOs.

What is Retro Rambles?

Retro Rambles is a new series where Tom interviews people about their gaming history. Every person will get the same questions:

• Your first gaming memory
• First console you were bought / or you bought
• The game shop you remember most
• Worst gaming memory / let down moment
• Retro or Modern gaming, which would you choose?
• What's your desert island game

Want to be on a Retro Ramble?

Drop Tom an e-mail on tj@channel84.co.uk and we'll try to sort something out. It might not be straight away BUT as long as I can get to you (or vice versa), then it should happen.

As this is our first attempt at this sort of episode (and the rain, don't forget the gallons of water falling out of the sky on to us) we did forget to do one of the questions above. Rob didn't get a chance to answer his 'Worst Gaming Memory / Let Down Moment' so we'll revisit that in a Variety Show episode.

Enjoy!

Thank you to everyone that got involved.

We'll be back in the new year with some new ideas and hopefully a bigger audience. A small recovery is needed.

We're back and this week we're looking at: Dead family pets. We didn't make any mistakes last week! A new segment about who remembers what. Rob has some Star Trek questions for Tom. Arthur, the mother-F***ing Aardvark from PBS.
