Can We Talk?

Can We Talk... about Christmas? It's nearly here, so we're talking traditions, spin the bottle, parties, presents, food that makes you fart and family. We also asked YOU, our lovely listeners, what you truly want as a Christmas present. Thanks for listening to season 1 and this Christmas special. We'll be back in 2024!

In the final episode of season one, we talk all things WORK. First jobs, bad bosses, work/life balance and the fact that Tom has actually never seen the Dolly Parton smash hit film! We also asked you, our listeners, what your work/life balance is like and also what you'd LOVE to say to your boss. The replies are HILARIOUS. Thank you, as always, for listening. And thank you for staying with us for season one. See you in 2024 for more of Can We Talk? Follow Tom on Instagram @unlikelydad Follow Simon on Instagram @theverysimong

Can We Talk... about friendships? They're hard work, right? And so they should be. They don't just land in your lap. We talk about it all: besties, the not-so-good ones, out with the toxic and in with the amazing, supportive, lovely, ones. Old school friends that make a welcome reappearance, and we hear from you and what your friendships are like.

Can We Talk…. about FASHION, darling? In this episode, we reminisce about parachute trousers and one of Tom’s questionable slogan tops. We lift the lid into what we used to love to wear that gives us the ick now, and also what our favourite wardrobe wonders are. We also uncover some of ours, and your fashion faux pas. Some interesting entries here!

Can we talk... about sex, relationships, passion and porn? YES. WE. CAN. In this episode, we delve straight into straight porn, car sex, first experiences and keeping things spicy after being married for 10 years plus. We also asked YOU how you felt about your own sex lives. Interesting answers incoming!

Can We Talk... about social media? Can't live without it? Can't stand it? Are you an app hopper? Do you scroll just before bed? Are you more Instagram than TikTok? So many questions! We unpack our social media habits and go deep about some more serious consequences, plus hear from you about why and how you use social media.

Can We Talk... about parenting? Tom's been a dad for 8.5 years and Simon for seven months, we both adopted our sons, and both have experienced similar and different highs and lows. We talk openly and honestly about our parenting journeys and divulge what you guys, our lovely listeners think about being parents too.

In episode 2, we talk about our coming out stories and asked our listeners what their own coming out stories are too. Plus divas we love and more!

In the first episode of Can We Talk, we delve into body image issues and how to overcome them. How do we actually see ourselves? How do other people see us? Should we care? We've both had body image issues, especially growing up as gay teens, but deal with them differently and both finally feel in a good place.
