    Episode 7 - A chat with Dean Stokes (Guinness World Record holder!)

    Welcome back to another episode of Off The Rails! In today's special episode, we are very lucky to be joined by our first special guest, Dean Stokes! We learn how Dean became the title holder of 'most rollercoasters ridden in a single week', before we dive into an array of other theme park discussions. The conversation turns to UK parks, Orlando, our cowards on coasters journey and we ask Dean for advice about how we move forward with our fear. Join us today to hear two theme park novices chat with a professional... Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 6 - Cowards on Cuisines

    Welcome back to another episode of Off The Rails! In today's slightly cursed episode, we're talking all things food. We're discussing the food we ate across all the parks, with various anecdotes from the trip. We compare American theme park food to UK parks and Disneyland Paris. One is definitely the clear winner! We go into detail about our experience with the Festival of the Arts, buffets, character meals and more...! Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 5 - The comprehensive guide to Universal & Disney coasters (for cowards)

    Welcome back to another episode of Off The Rails! In this episode, we're getting to the nitty gritty by rating how scary we thought each of the Disney and Universal coasters were. We employ a very flawed rating system that quickly proves difficult to understand, but we stick with it nonetheless. Various surprises pop up throughout the episode, so prepare for quite a chaotic one. Sam also decided to make it difficult for himself by saying he'd put sound effects throughout the whole episode - nice one. Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 4 - Revisiting where it all began

    Welcome back to Off The Rails! Yesterday, we returned to Clarence Pier (where we did our first big coaster). This inspired us to open the history book for this episode and take a look back at our Cowards on Coasters journey. We're thinking about how it all began and how our fear has evolved throughout the process. We go right back to the origins of Cowards on Coasters and discuss how the series came to be. This episode is wrapped up discussing how we coped at Clarence Pier this time around - it wasn't well the first time. Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 3 - Reading our pre-trip predictions (Part 2)

    This week, we're finishing off the second half of this two-parter episode. We continue where we left off in last week's episode and carry on with the predictions we made about our time in Orlando. There is lots of Disney talk this time around and we end up dipping our toes into some Disneyland Paris discussion too. Bennie shares his prediction for Sam's coaster ranking (as well as his own) and demonstrates how low he thinks of Sam's ability... To end the episode, Bennie preaches to scared lil' Mickey Jones and gives a foolproof order to ride the coasters. Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 2 - Reading our pre-trip predictions (Part 1)

    Welcome back to Off The Rails! In this episode, we begin a deep dive into the predictions we made about our time in Orlando. We reflect in-depth as to whether our guesses were right or wrong, leading to anecdotes from the trip, discussions about the water parks, coasters, the Universal parks (specifically the Harry Potter zones) and we finish off the first of this two-part episode by ranking the Disney parks. Join us next week for the second half of this episode - we have a lot to say... Thanks for listening! Instagram: @cowardsoncoasters

    Episode 1 - Welcome to the pod! (We don't know what we're doing).

    Welcome to Episode 1 of our new podcast Off The Rails! In this episode, we talk about why you might want to listen to this podcast and what the actual point of it is. We also realise how much we have to talk about from our trip, which is somewhat of an exciting prospect. It is clear that we don't have a good idea what we're doing yet (hence the big gaps of silence), but we're sure that things will improve over time. Thanks for listening!
