This week we are keeping it in the family Arianna joins me for another completely unqualified discussion about basically everything.

We’re talking about being Irish and what comes with it 🇮🇪, the viral Mallorca holiday affair (because apparently just going on holiday isn’t dramatic enough), and the ridiculous number of photos it takes to get ONE decent selfie.

We get into whether teachers deserve all the shit they get, why perfectly normal people seem to completely lose their minds the second they enter an airport, and whether Mrs Hinch and the cleaning crew have convinced us all that our houses should look like nobody actually lives in them.

Then there’s the small matter of marriage, work, kids and somehow still trying to have a life. Do you ever actually get the balance right, or are we all just winging it and hoping nobody notices?

And, of course, social media and the “perfect life.”

Are trad wives living the dream or taking us back 70 years? Are celebrities showing off their designer bags and watches… or are we just jealous bitches? 😂 How much of our lives are we wasting scrolling? And why do we need 47 attempts, three different angles and perfect lighting just to upload one “casual” selfie?

Most importantly: would either of us last five minutes as a trad wife?

Spoiler: probably not.

Plus, we finish with our Shit Show of the Week 💩 because behind every perfect Instagram life is probably a screaming child, a pile of washing and someone quietly losing their fucking mind.

🎙️ SHIT SHOW WITH DAN

Come for the opinions. Stay for the oversharing.

No experts. No filters. Plenty of shit. 💩

In this Episode we talk about, how the hell do you juggle being a mum of two, a wife, a nurse, an aerial acrobat AND still find time for family adventures? 😂This week, Dan is joined by the brilliant Maisie for a properly honest chat about motherhood, marriage, working life, finding time for yourself and why we’re all so bloody scared to try new things.We get into aerial acrobatics, Camper Crew Adventures, working-mum guilt, the great iPad debate and the importance of still being you when life gets ridiculously busy.Plus, we tackle a 97-year-old wing walker, a dog surfing championship, some quick-fire chaos and, of course, Maisie reveals her Shit Show of the Week. 💩Funny, honest and gloriously chaotic welcome to another Shit Show with Dan.#ShitShowWithDan #PodcastUK #MumLife #WorkingMum #CampervanAdventures

This week I’m joined by the lovely Angela for a brilliant conversation about family, adventure, Italy, opera, getting older, and making the most of life while we bloody well can.

Angela has one of those outlooks on life that I absolutely love: one day it will be our last, so why keep putting everything off until “one day”?

We talk about packing in the holidays and making memories, her recent climb up Snowdon, and life in a rather wonderful family setup where three generations share a courtyard along with 10 acres, horses, dogs and, I suspect, absolutely no shortage of chaos.

Then we head to Italy 🇮🇹 for stories of Rome, Florence, art, food, wine and the incredible experience of seeing Aida at the Verona Arena. We also chat about family life, work, being forced to slow down after an operation, and whether any of us are actually capable of listening when our bodies tell us to stop.

And because Angela admits her celebrity knowledge is absolutely shocking, naturally left those subjects alone and focused on life and joy.

Plus, Angela reveals her Shit Show of the Week,

It’s warm, funny and refreshingly down-to-earth a conversation about family, experiences, getting older and remembering what actually matters.

Dan is joined by his sister Sarah, freshly returned from her big American adventure and there is A LOT to unpack.

From enormous American portions and surviving immigration to Disney World, long-haul flights, American men and the question of whether everything really is bigger across the pond, Sarah gives us the full debrief.

A bizarre situation at Disney involving one particularly dedicated Peter Pan fan leads Dan and Sarah down the rabbit hole of Disney Adults, character obsessions and the important question: when does being a fan become a little bit too much?

They also get into American food, British vs American humour, Friends, true crime, Donald Trump, whether America feels anything like the version we see online.

Plus, Sarah reveals the moment she’ll never forget from the trip, where she’s travelling next and, of course, her Shit Show of the Week.

It’s chaotic. It’s opinionated. It’s a full American debrief.

Welcome to Shit Show with Dan Episode 12. 💩🎙️

This week on Shit Show with Dan, Kelly joins Dan for an episode packed with laughs, questionable opinions and the kind of conversations that usually start with, “I probably shouldn’t say this…”

From the madness of community Facebook groups, naming and shaming shoplifters, and why every local comment section has at least one jobsworth, to family life, a cocker spaniel with enough attitude to need his own management team, and a shared love of classic comedy.

They also chat about Rik Mayall, Bottom, The Young Ones, Mary Poppins, 80s nostalgia, dream holidays spent judging lazy rivers, and the week’s biggest Shit Shows,which include breaking everything in sight and taking an unexpected tumble.

It’s funny, nostalgic, slightly chaotic and, as always… allegedly.

This week Dan is joined by one of his longest-standing mates, Liam, a former hotel manager, personal trainer, sports fanatic, endurance challenge lover and one of life’s genuinely good blokes.

From sporting heroes and unforgettable moments to the incredible rise of Luke Littler and the renewed popularity of darts, the pair discuss why we love sport, how champions inspire us and whether we build our sporting idols up just to knock them down.

They also chat about golf, endurance challenges, leaving Norfolk to build a new life in Nottingham, life without social media, friendship, men’s mental health and why pushing yourself is about so much more than crossing the finish line.

As always, expect plenty of laughs, questionable opinions, a few heartfelt moments and, of course, Liam’s Shit Show of the Week.

Episode 9 is here, and Emma joins the Shit Show! 🎙️

This week we’re talking about the chaos of being a girl boss, raising three teenagers, and the pressure of trying to be the perfect role model when you’re just winging it like everyone else.

We dive into lockdown madness, why going for a walk on your own now feels like a luxury, how certain fashion trends instantly remind us of different stages of our lives, and whether audiobooks are actually worth your time.

We also tackle the big questions… At what age do your parents stop bailing you out? Does anyone ever really know what they’re doing? And is adulthood just one long series of educated guesses?

As always, it’s honest, hilarious, slightly chaotic, and definitely not professional advice.
