519 - Meeting Hawk Tuah in Hollywood, Playing Football with Roberto Carlos, & A New Awful Advent Calendar! (All Caught Up)

We’re LIFTING THE MOOD ON A MONDAY MORN with a Jaack, Stevie and Robbie all caught up! In this golden egg of an episode, Jaack and Stevie tell us about their recent trip to LA for a Spotify event. Celeb spotting was on the cards but there was one person in particular that the boys were extra giddy to meet! Jaack and Stevie watched their first ever NBA game - Lakers v Grizzlies - but were less than impressed with how America does sports, the price of beers, and LeBron’s son… Jaack got into beef with a bodyguard, stole a teddy bear from a child, and also managed to embarrass himself in front of Caspar Lee. Stevie's business class flight left him with a LOT to grumble about, but at least he's now officially joined the half mile high club! Robbie has a bone to pick with BambinoBecky, after he was left to drink alone in Europe. He's also got a story about a very drunk Darren Huckerby, and we have a promise to our audience after the recent backlash over Robbie’s roast dinner. And old school JaackMaate returns after Robbie splurged on an advert calendar even worse than Zoella’s… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
