Summary

Rob wins £750 and immediately assumes he's being scammed. Surprisingly, he isn't. Unfortunately, that's where things start going wrong.

This week, Rob & Tom return with an Amazon delivery nightmare involving a Nintendo Switch 2, a missing parcel, Evri, endless AI customer-service loops and an A-to-Z refund process that takes two weeks to escape. Eventually, Rob gets his Switch 2 — but not before having to use AI to help him argue with AI. Welcome to the future.

Tom, meanwhile, has achieved perhaps his greatest Dad Win yet. A treasured 3D-printed dragon suffers a catastrophic tail injury, and somehow a questionable purchase from the middle aisle of Lidl saves the day. Turns out buying tools you don't need really can pay off eventually.

Then we're heading back into classic British TV advertising for a new quiz. Tom plays the original songs behind ten famous advert parodies, while Rob has to work out which products stole the tunes and rewrote the lyrics. Expect forgotten jingles, questionable memories and the disturbing realisation that advertising from thirty years ago is still occupying valuable space in our brains.

Finally, Was It Best Left in the Nineties returns with two huge but very different 90s dance tracks fighting for survival. One gets another chance. One gets sent back to the decade it came from. Naturally, Rob and Tom completely disagree, leading to old arguments resurfacing, The Poddington Peas entering proceedings and Pokémon itself ending up on trial.

Plus Nintendo nostalgia, microwave chips, Cornetto memories, old-school UK adverts and the usual collection of completely unnecessary tangents.

The Variety Show with Tom & Rob from Studio. Rude. Fun. Unfiltered.
