    OTT #208 - What was it like to fly in the 90's? (Summer season 2026)

    This week, Alex & Dan rush to the departure gates as they board their last flight of Summer Season 2026 - this time, talking about a simpler, more spacious and relaxing time in the air - what flying in the 1990s was really like! From ample leg room, an abudance of luggage space - to as much second hand smoke as you could fill your lungs with - and metal cutlery, lax security and loved ones escorting you onto the plane - it was a wild time in the 90s and that was even after you needed to make your way to the High Street to purchase the holiday from the Travel Agents and procure your paper tickets! It's another nostalgic walk down memory lane - grab your steamed face towel as we mourn an enjoyable trip abroad! p.s. no cigarettes were consumed in the making of this episode artwork - neither Alex or Dan condone smoking - it's for chumps! #GITS🌊 #Onthetopic #TWRAD #Southcoastsounds #hotel #holiday #trips #flying #nostalgia #90s #smokingisforchumps NEW!

    This week, the dynamic duo of the south coast of the UK swap Nostalgia Beach for the Hotel Room, continuing 2026's Summer Season! Alex & Dan share some insights into the hotel industry and very quickly regret this new-found knowledge! Why should you never touch the kettle or the coffee machine? The bedding which is discarded on the hotel floor? It's there for a legitimate reason. That bath robe? It's not as fresh as you'd probably like. And don't get us started on the glassware.... We do honestly apologize for your upcoming hotel stay, but we hope this avoids some unwanted unexpected illnesses.... Oh - and there's a special advert at the end of this episode credits for Original Sauce... yeah you need to listen to the episode to find out why that's a thing.... #GITS🌊 #Onthetopic #TWRAD #Southcoastsounds #hotel #holiday #trips #etiquette #manners #respect #tips #sponsor NEW!

From learning the local lingo to being respectful at the dinner table, from watching where you're walking - to doing as the locals do - there's some handy tips for when you next board the plane for some relaxation away! No time for sitting back and relaxing... you've got a plane to catch! #GITS🌊 #Onthetopic #TWRAD #Southcoastsounds #flying #holiday #trips #etiquette #manners #respect #tips NEW!

    OTT #202 - What's up with Sony and Spider-Man?

    This week, Alex & Dan kick off the next few Marvel-related episodes with a recap on what Sony has done with their Spider-verse - and why they are churning out lacklustre films within the 5 year 9 month window... From a $9Bn franchise piggy-backing off the MCU, to films which struggle to break even at the box office, Sony have well and truly made their money back from the Marvel sale in the 90s - but are they still making enough money from the Wall Crawler and what does it mean for the future of Spider-Man at Sony? Sit back, relax and enjoy a trip down memory lane as well as gazing into the future of what might be next for our favourite superhero in spandex! #GITS🌊 #Onthetopic #TWRAD #Southcoastsounds #Spider-Man #Brandnewday #Marvel #Film #Sony #Phase6 #Marvel #discussion NEW!
