    GUYS STARE AT MY T**S | EPISODE 33 | GLASWEGIANS ANONYMOUS

    The sun has finally made a guest appearance in Glasgow, which means two things: everyone is suddenly "taps aff" at Glasgow Green, and the unsolicited commentary is at an all-time high. In this episode, the gang gets into the grit of surviving a Scottish summer while navigating the unwanted gaze and the internal battle of body shame.The Heatwave & The HustleWe kick things off with a candid discussion on body shame. As the layers come off, the insecurities come out, and we address the episode’s namesake: the exhausting reality of dealing with guys who can’t keep their eyes to themselves just because the temperature hit 18°C.From there, we pivot to a classic Glasgow mystery: How do the local "jakies" always have better trainers than us? While we’re out here working 9-to-5s just to afford a pair of scuffed Gazelles, the boys on the corner are rocking pristine, limited-edition vapormax. We investigate the secrets of the street-side "crep" game.Window Cleaning & Lockdown SecretsDarren takes us down memory lane with his Confessions of a Window Cleaner. Ever wondered what it was like to be one of the few people allowed to roam the streets during COVID? Darren reveals the strange sights, the lockdown "activities" he caught through the glass, and what it’s really like being the neighborhood’s most essential (and unintentional) voyeur.The Great Food Debates• Eggy Bread vs. French Toast: It’s the age-old question. Is it a sophisticated brunch item or a salty, ketchup-covered hangover cure? The team draws a line in the sand.• Professor Green’s Glasgow Spot: We review the latest food venture from Professor Green and see if it lives up to the hype in the Glasgow food scene.• Gary vs. Mounjaro: In a feat of pure willpower (and perhaps a bit of gluttony), Gary explains exactly how he managed to "out-fat" the world’s most famous weight-loss drug. Science said he’d lose the appetite; Gary said, "Watch this." Nostalgia & Final Tributes• RIP Chuck Norris: We pay our respects to the legend himself. Whether it’s the memes or the roundhouse kicks, the world feels a little less safe today.• Childhood Video Vault: From The Krankies to old-school VHS tapes of The Lion King, we talk about the videos that raised us and why we keep going back to them for comfort.• Scottish Sun Spots: If you’re looking to escape the city, we shout out our favorite spots to soak up the UV rays—from the "Costa del Troon" to the hidden gems in the Highlands.Don’t forget to subscribe and leave us a review if you’re enjoying the chaos. 🎟️ Tickets for the next show: https://www.sec.co.uk/events/detail/glaswegians-anonymous-live-ep2

    I'M OFF THE DIETS AND ON THE DINNERS | OPEN GOAL HOT WING MELTDOWN | EPISODE 32

    The boys are back and, quite frankly, they’ve reached a breaking point. This week, Darren and Gary recap their experience taking on the Open Goal Hot Wings challenge, but it wasn't just the spice that had them sweating—it was the camera angles.After a harrowing look at their own side profiles on screen, Gary finally snaps. In a monologue for the ages, he officially announces his retirement from the "dieting" game. Why fight the inevitable when you can embrace the inevitable? Gary is pivoting, rebranding, and leaning into his true calling as Glasgow's next big food vlogger.Inside the Episode:• The Wing Report: A post-match analysis of the Open Goal challenge. Who handled the heat and who looked like they were meeting their maker?• The Side Profile Crisis: The harsh reality of seeing yourself on camera and why the "chin-to-neck" ratio has Gary questioning everything.• The Great Meltdown: Gary explains why he’s done with calorie counting and "health."• A New Career Path: From podcast host to food vlogger—prepare for a lot more gravy and a lot less shame."I'm done. I'm off the diets and I'm strictly on the dinners. If you see me in a bakery, mind your business." — GaryWarning: Contains strong language, questionable life choices, and a complete disregard for cholesterol levels. Listen now and join the carnage.

    I’ve had 400 Street Fights Mate….Undefeated | Episode 30 | Glaswegians Anonymous

    In this landmark 30th episode, the boys are joined by a man who knows exactly what it takes to reach the top of the mountain: British and Commonwealth Featherweight Champion, Nathaniel Collins.Nathaniel takes us behind the curtain of the professional fight game, and it’s not all glitz and gold belts. We’re talking about the mental and physical torture of "the cut"—that brutal period before a fight where every calorie is a memory and the obsession with food reaches fever pitch.From dreaming about "scran" to the legendary first meal post-fight, Nathaniel gets real about the sacrifices made in camp. We also take a trip down memory lane to the lockdown days, where Nathaniel was busy putting Darren through his paces (and wondering if he'd survive the session). Plus, we tackle a classic Glasgow phenomenon: Why is it that every guy in a local pub, after two pints, thinks they can puff their chests out and have a "square go" with a professional fighter? On the menu this week:• The Hunger Games: The psychological warfare of making weight.• The Food Obsession: What happens when you can’t stop thinking about a cheeseburger.• Lockdown Drills: Training Darren when the world was shut down.• Glasgow "Hardmen": Dealing with the egos who think they can take a pro.• The Big Stage: Looking ahead to the massive upcoming fight at the OVO Hydro.Whether you're a boxing fanatic or just here for the patter, this is an elite-level chat with one of the city's finest athletes.

    You’ll get dynamite at ping pong, pool & fighting | Episode 26 | Glaswegians Anonymous

    In this week’s chaotic installment of Glaswegians Anonymous, Gary and Darren prove that 9:00 AM is an ungodly hour for two comedians with ADHD to be operating heavy machinery (or even a microphone). From career milestones to hypothetical cellmates, the boys cover: • The 9:00 AM Struggle: An honest look at the brain fog and executive dysfunction that hits when you try to be funny before the caffeine kicks in. • Going Pro: Big news as Gary officially goes full-time with comedy. The lads discuss the leap of faith and what life looks like without a "real" job. • Behind Bars: The unique energy of performing jail gigs. Is it the toughest crowd in Scotland, or just the most honest one? • Cellmate Romance: With February in the air, the boys imagine a very specific Valentine's Day scenario: what would life look like if Gary and Darren were sharing a cell? (Spoiler: It’s not pretty, but it’s probably hilarious). • Glee Club Chaos: Darren breaks down a recent battle with hecklers at Glasgow’s Glee Club and the art of shutting down the front row without losing the room. "Doing a podcast at 9am with ADHD isn't a broadcast, it's a wellness check." Listen now on your favorite platform! #GlaswegiansAnonymous #ScottishComedy #GlasgowLife #NewEpisode #ScottishPodcast
