What's All This Then?Episode 16 - Alice Kirker & Katie LongbottomSam and Bailey FINALLY get their first guests on What's All This Then! This week, the boys are joined by actress and theatre practitioner, Alice Kirker (@alicemaykirker), and her best friend, fellow theatre practitioner and comedian, Katie Longbottom (@katie_longbo). The two join the podcast to talk about their upcoming show, CAKE BABY, which is making it's premiere run at the Basement Theatre in Auckland, New Zealand on March 2nd-6th 2021 (Tickets available: https://basementtheatre.co.nz/whats-on/2021/3/cake-baby).

What's All This Then?Episode 15 - Is WandaVision Actually Good?Bailey and Sam talk for the first time in two weeks! So, as you can imagine, it is absolutely unlistenable. Chats about WandaVision actually dropping a bombshell onto the MCU gets legitimate interest from both, as much as they wish it didn't, with jokes galore as always.

What's All This Then?Episode 14 - A Little Town Called RiverdaleIn another relaxed episode of What's All This Then, the boys catch up on all things they might have missed. The UK is still in lockdown, so there's really not much going on there, and Bailey's life is boring so this truly is thrilling listening! The boys have another sponsor to share with you all, before heading straight into the McGregor/Poirier fight. Then they step into the world of The CW Network's hit show Riverdale and wonder how anyone really operates in there at all. Happy listening!

What's All This Then?Episode 13 - The OJ Simpson IncidentIn another pretty stripped back edition of What's All This Then, the boys bond over a lovely flowing conversation whilst Bailey makes his breakfast! They discuss their favourite foods, their shared love (and shared history) of breakfast burritos, as well as a not-so-deep dissection of the fact OJ Simpson still just knocks around in LA. Plus, would William Shakespeare survive watching Avengers: Endgame?

What do you expect, huh? Ah, hello dear listeners! Sam and Bailey sat down to record a normal episode of What's All This Then, and for about half an hour they really tried! The boys have a sponsor to read out for the second week in a row (01:15), before cracking straight into some testy questions about what it would be like if they ever lived together!

Carruthers, Leggetter & WhoeverS6:E9 - The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)It’s a bumper episode this week to celebrate the absolute stone cold musical masterpiece classic, 'The Rocky Horror Picture show. A cult film immortalised in history, bolstered by seminal performances from Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Patricia Quinn, Barry Bostwick and Richard O’Brian to name but a few. Never mind Meatloaf and little Nell. To celebrate the genius of the film we are joined again by the wonderful Sam Mandi Ghomi, so why not give in to absolute pleasure and join us for today’s episode.

Maintaining a friendship from opposite ends of the world can be tough, but this catchup is something to behold. The boys discuss what they did for New Years (in the very different New Zealand and UK) and their favourite memories from New Year's gone by, plus some of their very favourite memories from their college days. Everybody's favourite segment - Get in the Bin! - is back once again...

The film features one of the all time performances from Kathy Bates as Annie Wilkes, and the boys are joined by Sam Mandi-Ghomi to discuss and dissect why Tom likes the character so much.

What's All This Then?Episode 10 - That Doesn't Even Look Like BatmanJust like Troy and Chad in High School Musical 3, the boys are BACK! After a month-long hiatus, Bailey and Sam return for a classic episode of What's All This Then. The trash has been taken out and the bin is ready to be filled again, while they both answer some of YOUR most interesting talking points. This one's basically just a catch-up because we haven't actually talked since we last recorded.

What's All This Then?Episode 9 - Gucci PinkThe audio's back to a passable quality this week which means Sam and Bailey get SILLY! Expect impressions of Michael Parkinson throughout, while Sam and Bailey revisit some of their favourite adolescent memories, and Bailey tries to figure out what Sam's getting him for his birthday this year. Sam also rants about what he hates about Marvel movies (specifically Infinity War and Endgame), while Bailey reveals some VERY exciting news regarding his career. PLUS, the boys debut a new segment all around gossip from YOUR lives! You won't wanna miss this one!

What's All This Then?Episode 8 - The One With Zac EfronAre Sam and Bailey getting too comfortable with this platform for their creativity? We may never truly be able to tell. What we can tell, however, is that this episode is filled with a lovely description of the movie of their lives, of Bailey's ideal life partner (spoiler: it's not Sam), a fantastic discussion about the upcoming New Zealand election, and the Bin gets ever fuller with suggestions of pure debauchery. Plus, the show is joined by a very special, if unexpected, guest. DISCLAIMER: Audio problems galore in this one. For some reason the record overlaid a lot of...

What's All This Then?Episode 7 - Never Knew You Had a Hugh Grant In YouThis train rolls on into a new week filled with fun, laughs, and copious unemployment. Bailey had travelled to attend Maoriland Film Festival, and so treats us to a story about a quirky Englishman he met there. Sam, meanwhile, ran into not one but TWO(!) celebrities in London this week. And, as always, the bin gets ever fuller with stuff, things, and unnecessary life happenstances. Maybe it'll overflow one of these days. DISCLAIMER: The connection this week wasn't as consistent as some of the other episodes, so there are some audio lags. Use your imagination to fill them in!

What's All This Then?Episode 6 - PoodlesGet yourselves ready for the most vile episode yet. The boys went into this week's recording with the highest hopes possible and - as it so often does - the entire thing just degenerates. Content warning for literally every single bodily fluid you can imagine. PLUS, the Bin gets its juiciest addition yet and Sam loses his goddamn mind.

What's All This Then?Episode 5 - Bumble Bumble Miss American CrumbleSam and Bailey are back for another round of trying to keep their dying friendship alive. In this one, Bailey exposes one of the many questionable decisions he's made recently, the boys continue the discussion of the incomparable Cobra Kai, and a load more refuse sacks get taken outside and dumped in the ever-growing Bin. DISCLAIMER: This week's audio is temperamental. Some cut-offs, Sam's mic apparently just wasn't working well, and Bailey usually doesn't sound that nasal. Usually.

What's All This Then?Episode 4 - Wax On, Fuck OffThe boys are seemingly getting the hang of it now, which is fantastic news for their 14 listeners. The boys kick this week off by discussing what they hate about each other, before moving onto who's more attractive, before Sam spends approximately 12 minutes waxing lyrical about his love of The Karate Kid franchise. And, as always, the bin gets fuller and fuller with all kinds of awful things that have happened the world over this week.

What's All This Then?Episode 3 - Bailey's Birthday Bonanza Part XXIIBailey spends the morning of his 22nd birthday doing exactly what he loves - making jokes alone into a microphone in the basement of his Aunt and Uncle's house. Sam eventually joins him to discuss whether one of them is more invested in the friendship (Spoilers: one of them would never record on his birthday), whether 10am is too early to do practically anything, and the masterpiece that is Pixar's 2006 classic, Cars. Oh and, as always, numerous foul, disgusting concepts get tossed lazily in The Bin.

What's All This Then?Episode 2 - Riddle Me This, Chris EubankTwo episodes in and it's all falling apart. Sam and Bailey give a masterclass in the virtues of preparation as they challenge each other on their friendship and talk about some of their most treasured memories. They discuss all sorts, from the differences in the UK and NZ Covid responses and why Sam physically cannot drink Coca Cola.
