Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
This is a great day.
Yeah. I feel great. What a good way to start the week. Even I'm feeling happy. Did you do any research? Um, fuck all. Interesting.
Are you talking about from when we came on here, sports? No, just like, because he knew he was coming here today. Oh, okay.
So, I'm just, you know, just going to use that. Fair. We just used it when we were there. You were going on fire. Nice. I see. Guys, welcome in. So, we have a very, very, very, very, very, very special episode today. This actually is a... Not to say that the other guest episodes aren't very special episodes. Yeah, they suck. Yeah, this one's a really special one.
Also, wait your turn. Yeah, sorry. I haven't introduced you yet. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
You're not here yet. That's okay. So, we have very special guests in. Yes, sir. They are considered the internet's Second or third best friends. And we're super honoured to have them in. We met them a few weeks ago on their podcast. I had literally the best time possible. If you had like skipped out of there, we were so gassed.

Chapter 2: How do the hosts introduce their special guests?
And it was just like the best day. And it was probably like the first sunny day of the year. It was. And we were just in like a great mood. We drank that day as well. I took my top off and then put it back on. You did. So, guys, hosts of the Staying Relevant podcast, please, big, warm welcome to Sam and Pete. Yay!
Yay!
That was so lovely.
You're welcome, bro.
Thank you, man. You see why now he doesn't go on a lot of podcasts. He fucked your intro because he went straight in. It's okay, though, because that's excitement. That's excitement. We appreciate that. I don't want to be that guy that picks up straight away on something, but what do you mean by second and third? Okay, cool. So first, obviously, there's like...
I would probably say Joe and Frank from the Basement Yard podcast. Who the heck? Who the fuck are they? They're pretty big deal, dude. Joe and Frank? Yeah, you don't know Joe and Frank from Basement Yard? Oh, I know exactly who's on Basement Yard. Yeah, New York. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So you agree you're third?
Oh, mate, I know exactly who they are. So you agree you're third? No, I just really like them. No, no, no. They're just great.
They are. They are. They're not fucking better than us.
No, of course they're not fucking better than us. If we went head to head with them... in any sport, sport. If we did a sports day with them, we would win. What? We should do a sports day.

Chapter 3: What are the dynamics of friendship in this podcast?
I'm that dude now. Either film it for TikTok or the police. Yeah. I don't mind it. I genuinely have no issue. Who knows?
Chapter 4: How did the podcast 'Staying Relevant' come to be?
Yeah, I have no issue wearing dresses or... I love your... What did he look like? I've got a video.
Yeah, yeah, literally. Where did that confidence come from?
I don't mind making myself look like a tit. It's fine. I feel like... if you had more of that, I think everyone would be a happier person. it's not like, you're not hurting anyone, do you know what I mean? And I feel like if anyone comes over and goes, you look like a wanker, I go, yeah, but I just made a really fun video. Do you know what I mean?
So like, I feel like, why would you feel embarrassed about something where I've got a really beautiful girlfriend that I love, I've got a great family, I've got a great job. Like, do you know what I mean? Like, what am I to be embarrassed about? What else can I ask?
Yeah, I get it. Speaking of, like, personalities, you guys have both great personalities, but very different personalities. And you guys have obviously both been on reality TV shows. Oh, yeah. So how was that dynamic when you were first approached to do said TV shows for your respective ones individually, as well as what were your, like, feelings like towards it at the same time?
Oh, I, it's very different. Our kind of journeys into where we are now are so, so different. I never wanted to do any of this. I don't watch reality TV. Like I did it because, well, because I was drunk. Mostly. Context. What does that mean? So I had a real job before with this sort of stuff.
A friend of mine was on holiday in Marbella and he was already on a show and they were filming and I was supposed to meet him after and then they were like, why don't you just come down? I was drunk already. I said, yeah, I'll do one scene. It'd be funny. It went a bit mad and then I carried on and realised that...
Quality of life is so much better than it was before because how fucking blessed, blessed was I to do some of the stuff I did and get paid to do it because it was basically, it was basically just having, it's not like a real job. I'm sorry, anyone that says like reality TV is like a real job is fucking...
an idiot who's never actually worked before yeah and it's even now like a lot what we do like it's like you boys know like it's hard graft but fucking how blessed are we yeah there's proper jobs we could be doing yeah so that was kind of my thing i was a little bit older than you were when i started all this sort of stuff so i'd already lived a bit of a life yeah and then just kind of fell into it and then it went so mad at the beginning because back then there was only

Chapter 5: What challenges did they face during their live show?
We made it better, but in my own way.
But what I will say, and that's not because he's not, he's better at presenting and he's better than I am by far. 100% you are. I just, I research everything. Like I'm like a stickler for everything. getting shit done.
He likes structure. Yes.
Whatever else. Sam is better at that stuff than me, which is why I have to do that. But then sometimes if something happens that is unexpected, I'm your guy. If something unexpected happens, his head's gone. Okay. Okay. So a live thing, if something happens, and it's not because he'd deal with it badly, he'd deal with it in a way where everyone goes, what?
Chapter 6: How did they feel about performing at the O2?
So there's a risk involved. Before we went, it wasn't... Actually, it was the Apollo. We were about to go on Apollo and I just, for some reason, just forgot everything I was doing. We were literally there going, welcome to the stage. I go, Pete, like that. And we're about to walk through our different doors. I go, Pete goes, what? I go, I can't remember what the fuck I'm doing.
Pete went, just fucking walk out there. And she walked out through my cards in the air and just tried to land the plane.
the whole show so Pete had to structure because I don't know where the fuck we were going with it or anything like that because I just I just can't remember things like that I'm very bad at that and so Pete basically had to guide us more than anything you just get really you get really excited so Pete had to guide us through the entire show bless him and I got quite pissed actually as well yeah damn I was going to say we didn't really get to speak about it much at the at your show what was the O2 like for you guys apart from getting pissed
No, I was at the Apollo.
But I did get pissed at the O2 actually as well. Fucking hammered. Yeah, hammered.

Chapter 7: What insights do they share about their friendship?
Yeah, I remember you telling us last night.
Yeah, because I get a little bit nervous. The O2. Just like that.
Because that's like a big deal. Just to premise it, that's a huge, huge, huge, huge, huge, huge, huge deal. Biggest career moment I would say in my life. Let me tell you, so basically when we were at the Apollo the year before, Sam, without speaking to me, went on stage at the end of our, we did like a bit of a residency at the Apollo. And at the end of the last night,
Sam went, next year we're doing the O2. And it was news to me and to everyone in the audience. So then I said afterwards, that's a fucking ridiculous thing. We're just like a poxy little podcast. We're never going to be able to kind of do something like the O2. So then went away and thought, fuck it, maybe we could.
Chapter 8: How do they define success and friendship?
And what I'm most proud of is not the show. It's the team and everyone like Pippa had only just joined us. We just started on our own with the podcast and kind of set up the studios and done all that sort of stuff. And in that first year as a team with no outside help, we put that on. So we didn't have writers. We didn't have anything. We did everything ourselves and just did the whole thing.
fucking performance and we we didn't it wasn't like a podcast show we had dancing we had we had a live band we had guest things we did a world record we did like we went for it yeah and we did all that ourselves having never done it before that's what i'm most proud of is actually how the whole team came together like a little fucking weird little family of eight people that just fucking went fuck it we'll do the o2 and we did it i don't remember much of the o2 i don't remember it actually happening
to be honest with you because it was a bit of a blur but we did we made a documentary out of it I heard about this yeah and actually having watched that six months later that's the first time I thought fuck we did that yeah so it's always when you look back yeah because at the time it was a bit like fucking it was so fucking stressful surreal and everything was fucking going wrong and having
to kind of be in charge of all that and like everything going on when you're thinking fuck you've got like 16 and a half thousand people bought fucking tickets to go and watch this thing if it's shite and they pay good money to come to the o2 do all this sort of stuff we look right yeah but more than anything i'm yeah i'm proud of the same and proud of sam for the way we did that yeah we literally had like our producers over there she um sat in the control box
of the O2 being like, in Pete's ear, being like, and then gesturing to me with stuff. And she's never stood there before. She hasn't got a fucking clue what, like she didn't know what half the buttons did. And so like we, none of us in the entire building knew what we'd never done before.
And so we just went out there and it was, from what we've heard, the feedback and stuff, it was like, it's one of the most proud moments I've ever had. Oh, that's dope, man. I really wish I saw it. Well, you guys have done the same thing though, right? So you know how it feels.
Yeah, it was, scary it was like is that the biggest show you've done yeah yes so how mad was it for you when like you know when you do like smaller shows yeah and actually i prefer the smaller shows because they're more intimate and like you can really get when you first walked out there Were you like, oh, fuck.
Because you know when you go in the O2 and it's empty and you're like, fuck, this is massive. This is fucking different gravy, isn't it? But then when you actually go out there, how mad is that fucking thing? So our thing was... Fuck, this was so scary. Our thing was basically... we had decided to do like a surprise entrance. So we had like a little mini stage in the middle.
And then during all the prep time, they were like, right, what we're going to do is disguise you guys as security guys, then walk you to this mini stage. No one's going to notice you. Everything's going to be fine. And we were like, all right, cool. And then literally five minutes before we walk on, I get nervous thinking about it now. The geezer... I was so stressing about this entrance.
