    Episode 2.29: The annual festival pilgrimage

    It's our favourite time of year. It isn't Christmas (which comes in a close second) but the glory that is festival season. We always wait until August to get going to our favourite (Reading) and this week you'll mostly be finding us knee deep in mosh pits, tents and Barcardi Oakheart.  It's all we can think about to be honest, because we really need some time off. But never fear, if festivals aren't your thing, we've got laughs and banter a plenty as per usual, and we'll even be teaching you some Sex Ed facts at the end!   We’ve got: Fitness woes (I mean who really has the time anyway), travel insurance issues and a whole host of other whinges. The 3 Cuckoos Podcast are back, and they don't understand what us ladies take into the bathroom. The countdown is on, because this week we make our annual pilgrimage to Reading Festival. We've got our packing lists, who we are going to see, what booze we are taking and our favourite festival memories to share with you! And finally, we got down with our weekly quiz - this time Sam quizzes Lea using a legit sex education test. So get on it listeners!

    Episode 2.28: Who wants a Blue WKD?

    Summer time is a time for frolicking through fields, lying on blustery British beaches and picking insects out of lovingly handmade sandwiches. If you are normal or in a Endi Blyton novel that is. If you are us, you'll probably be daydreaming about that time you out off your box on 3 bottles of Hooch when you were 16 and hadn't yet discovered the murky world of Sambuca. Oh for those days. A Smirnoff Ice hangover was, on reflection, much easier to handle than a whiskey one. We’ve got: A chat through what's going on at Edinburgh Fringe this year, clean eating and super naps (Lea doesn't take a breath). Adam Barker takes us through his Facebook page with pretty scary consequences. A retro trip down memory lane. Remember all of those ridiculous sugary alcopops you used to drink as a teen? Well we're reminiscing, with the help of Buzzfeed.  And finally, we got down with our weekly quiz - this time Lea quizzes Sam on very rude place names. So get on it listeners!

    Episode 2.27: Results won't kill you

    Guess who's back, back again. Tell your friends. Also your exes, neighbours, Grannies and everyone on your Facebook friends list. We took a little holiday (everyone needs one right?), and now we are back with a refreshed outlook on life and indeed podcasting. As well as all the usual stuff, we got down to discussing exams and results and how things look very different with a bit of perspective. If you know someone collecting exam results this week, give them a hug and tell them it'll be ok. because it really will. Honest. We’ve got: A big old catch up on our time off from podcasting, the Spotify Discover Weekly playlists and our 4 year anniversary Simon Button talks us through his experiences of a full body massage with hilarious consequences It's A-Level results day this week. We relive our own joy and horror from very many years ago, and talk about why they are not the most important thing in life. And finally, we got down with our weekly quiz - this time Sam quizzes Lea on all things Sexy Time. So get on it listeners!

    Episode 2.26: HTCLive x 1

    We decided to play fast and loose with convention this week, and instead of meticulous planning and razor sharp editing we decided to grab some gin, our laptops and take a Friday night live slot on Mixlr. For those of you who tuned in live last week, then grab a tea and enjoy it again. For those of you that missed it - well we can only warn you that the swearing, gin and screw ups are liberal... We’ve got: Learning how to use Mixlr for live streaming, and some epically bad live chat from our friends in the audience (thanks guys). Taste testing some incredible fruity gins from our friends at FruitBooze. Review and round up of more festival drinking options including some new options from cocktail connoisseurs Parrot Bay. Answering some of your questions, whilst playing an ill advised game of I have never. And finally, we got down with our Cards Against Humanity play of the day. We are horrible people.

    Episode 2.25: Sam v Lea

    Oh for a pub quiz. A bottle of wine, good friends and endless questions that we don't really know the answer to. From quiz shows, board games and phone apps we cannot get ENOUGH of answering obscure questions so we decided to do one on the podcast. We invited our good friend Dee to set the questions and act as quizmaster. And she picked a London quiz of all sorts of goodness with some odd facts thrown in. You'll have to listen to see who reigned victorious. We’ve got: We get back in the saddle. Hitting the gym, wrapping up our Buddy Box competition (enter here!) and deciding that we are going to record live on the 25th June at 9pm. You can join us on Mixlr and chat and stuff! Amy & Emma-Louise chat about understanding what you are looking for in a life partner, and how to know if someone could be The One. We love quizzes. WE LOVE THEM. So we decided to do one with the help of our love friend Dee Baker. We won't spoil who wins. And finally, we got down with our Cards Against Humanity play of the day. We are horrible people.

    Episode 2.24: In the air

    We all love holidays. Sam has just come back off hers and is currently navigating the Tube with death in her eyes, fading sunburn and a sinking feeling that she probably has many months before she can get away again. Lea however still has it all to come, so is feeling pretty smug. So before a fist fight can ensue, we decided to chat about the one thing we have in common - a desire to get through long haul flights unscathed and feeling box-fresh. No one likes being cooped up for 9+ hours on a plane feeling all yucky and weird, so we've decided to give you all the tips you need for a pleasant flight. We’ve got: Sam's back so we chats Cuba and drinking all the rum, and Lea catches us up on celeb deaths back home. The 3 Cuckoos lads get up het up about Facebook - so we let them get it off their chests. Sam's been flying long haul and Lea's just about to - we share our top tips on coping with a long ass flight. And finally, we got down with our Cards Against Humanity play of the day. We are horrible people. So get on it listeners!
