    The World Cup of Men (Groups A-D)

    The World Cup of Men gets underway with Groups A–D, diving into the different types, personalities and archetypes you come across in real life, nights out and everywhere in between. From nomads and rastas to truck drivers and the effortlessly cool bastards everyone knows, this opening episode throws together a mix of characters that instantly spark opinions. We also get into the chaos of compulsive liars, the rise of manosphere men, and the respect (and pressure) that comes with being a super dad — all very different types, all somehow competing in the same tournament. As always, this isn’t about individuals — it’s about the archetypes, the stereotypes and the shared experiences people recognise straight away. The criteria is loose, the debates move quickly, and no category stays safe for long. This is where it all starts — setting the tone before the tournament really opens up.

    World Cup of Women – Groups A–D The World Cup of Women gets underway with Groups A–D, diving into the different types, personalities and archetypes you come across in real life, nights out, holidays and everywhere in between. From mods and travellers to garage girls, party girls and the kind of “11/10 neckbreakers” that stop conversations mid-sentence, this opening episode introduces a mix of categories that everyone instantly recognises. We get into the world of table service girls, the rise of Dubai real estate types, and the kinds of characters that always seem to come with a story attached. As always, this isn’t about judging individuals — it’s about the archetypes, the stereotypes, and the shared experiences people instantly recognise.

  3. The World Cup of 1998 (Groups A-D)

    3 APR

    The World Cup of 1998 (Groups A-D)

    The World Cup of 1998 – Groups A–D The World Cup of 1998 kicks off with Groups A–D, taking us straight back to one of the most iconic years of the late 90s. From the chaos of England vs Argentina and everything that came with it, to peak TV moments with Johnny Vaughan and Denise Van Outen, this episode is packed with the kind of memories that instantly transport you back. We relive the shock of Geri leaving the Spice Girls, the glory of Arsenal winning the double, and the cultural impact of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels — all while Alright Fans casually drops in one of his own personal milestones from 1998 that probably should’ve stayed private. This is what the World Cup of 1998 is all about — football, music, film, TV and real-life moments all colliding into one ridiculous, nostalgia-heavy tournament. As always, the criteria is loose. Impact, nostalgia, cultural relevance and pure “I remember exactly where I was” factor all come into play as we try to decide what truly defines the year. This episode sets the tone for the tournament — big moments, bigger memories, and constant debates over what really mattered most. Groups E–H and the knockout rounds continue exclusively on Patreon, where the nostalgia only gets deeper. 👉 patreon.com/theworldcupof Including: The World Cup of Horrible PeopleThe World Cup of Horrible Words / PhrasesThe World Cup of 2025The World Cup of LiquidsThe World Cup of Forgotten FashionThe World Cup of Things You Don’t See (Anymore)The World Cup of Special DaysThe World Cup of Forgotten TV ShowsThe World Cup of InsultsThe World Cup of Hard People …and the full back catalogue.🎟️ Multiple tiers ⏱️ Full-length episodes 🚫 Not listed anywhere else If this one didn’t take you straight back, nothing will — the rest of 1998 is waiting on Patreon. 🔒 ALL FULL EPISODES AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON

    26 MAR

    The World Cup of Shit Jobs (Groups A-D)

    The World Cup of Shit Jobs – Groups A–D The World Cup of Shit Jobs gets underway with Groups A–D, shining a light on the roles people either avoid at all costs… or find themselves stuck explaining at parties. From the emotional weight of an undertaker to the grim reality of a portaloo cleaner, from the thankless existence of a traffic warden to the relentless hustle of a looky looky man, this tournament covers jobs that test patience, dignity, sanity — or all three at once. We also get into roles that come with power but just as much pressure, like being Prime Minister, alongside jobs that are physically and mentally draining, such as slaughterhouse work. Some are difficult, some are misunderstood, and some just feel like there’s no upside whatsoever. As always, the criteria is up for debate. Pay, stress, public perception, working conditions and pure “I couldn’t do that” factor all come into play as we try to decide what truly makes a job terrible. This episode sets the tone for the tournament — honest, uncomfortable at times, but full of opinions everyone secretly has. Groups E–H and the knockout rounds continue exclusively on Patreon, where the full debates and inevitable disagreements live. 👉 patreon.com/theworldcupof Including: The World Cup of Horrible PeopleThe World Cup of Horrible Words / PhrasesThe World Cup of 2025The World Cup of LiquidsThe World Cup of Forgotten FashionThe World Cup of Things You Don’t See (Anymore)The World Cup of Special DaysThe World Cup of Forgotten TV ShowsThe World Cup of InsultsThe World Cup of Hard People …and the full back catalogue.🎟️ Multiple tiers ⏱️ Full-length episodes 🚫 Not listed anywhere else If this one made you feel better about your own job… the rest of the debate is waiting on Patreon. 🔒 ALL FULL EPISODES AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON

  5. The World Cup of Holiday Nightmares (Groups A-D)

    19 MAR

    The World Cup of Holiday Nightmares (Groups A-D)

    The World Cup of Holiday Nightmares gets underway with Groups A–D, as we’re joined by special guest James Gardner (@comedyjames) to relive the kinds of trips that go spectacularly wrong. From getting hit with sun stroke on day one to full-blown blazing rows that derail the entire holiday, from being caught up in natural disasters to somehow ending up locked in a brothel, this tournament brings together the absolute worst-case scenarios of going away. What starts as a break quickly turns into something you’ll be telling stories about for the rest of your life — missed flights, dodgy food, arguments that escalate out of nowhere, and situations you genuinely couldn’t make up. As always, the criteria is loose and the stories are doing most of the work. Severity, chaos, recoverability and pure “how has this happened?” all come into play as we try to decide what truly is the ultimate holiday nightmare. This episode sets the tone for the tournament — big stories, bigger opinions, and a strong reminder that sometimes it’s just better to stay at home. Groups E–H and the knockout rounds continue exclusively on Patreon, where things somehow get even worse. 👉 patreon.com/theworldcupof Including: The World Cup of Horrible People The World Cup of Horrible Words / Phrases The World Cup of 2025 The World Cup of Liquids The World Cup of Forgotten Fashion The World Cup of Things You Don’t See (Anymore) The World Cup of Special Days The World Cup of Forgotten TV Shows The World Cup of Insults The World Cup of Hard People …and the full back catalogue. 🎟️ Multiple tiers ⏱️ Full-length episodes 🚫 Not listed anywhere else If this episode made you rethink your next trip, the rest of the nightmares are waiting on Patreon. 🔒 ALL FULL EPISODES AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON

  6. The World Cup of Wastes of Money (Groups A-D)

    12 MAR

    The World Cup of Wastes of Money (Groups A-D)

    The World Cup of Wastes of Money gets underway with Groups A–D, taking a brutally honest look at the things people pour money into… only to later wonder why. From modern absurdities like AI girlfriends and endless streaming subscriptions like DAZN, to old-school drains on the wallet such as cigarettes and gambling, this tournament asks a very simple question: what actually deserves the title of the ultimate waste of money? Along the way we get into global talking points like Visit Rwanda sponsorships, massive government spending projects like NASA, and the most destructive expenditure of all — war. Some entries are personal vices, some are cultural debates, and others are things society keeps paying for despite knowing exactly how expensive they are. As always, the criteria is loose and the arguments escalate quickly. Cost, value, impact and sheer frustration all come into play as we try to separate guilty pleasures from things that genuinely feel like money disappearing into thin air. This episode sets the tone for the tournament — strong opinions, uncomfortable truths, and a lot of financial regret. Groups E–H and the knockout rounds continue exclusively on Patreon, where the full debates and inevitable arguments live. 👉 patreon.com/theworldcupof Including: The World Cup of Horrible People The World Cup of Horrible Words / Phrases The World Cup of 2025 The World Cup of Liquids The World Cup of Forgotten Fashion The World Cup of Things You Don’t See (Anymore) The World Cup of Special Days The World Cup of Forgotten TV Shows The World Cup of Insults The World Cup of Hard People …and the full back catalogue. 🎟️ Multiple tiers ⏱️ Full-length episodes 🚫 Not listed anywhere else If this episode made you rethink where your money goes, the rest of the arguments are waiting on Patreon. 🔒 ALL FULL EPISODES AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON
