It’s a good week to be a fan of the Geordie pair: both have dropped deluxe editions of their acclaimed 2025 albums, and the boys are diving in.

In the final regular episode of the year, they unpack all the new material — noting some striking cinematic parallels between the two releases. Both artists deliver eight additional tracks, each set expanding on the themes of their parent albums while still standing confidently as fully formed bodies of work.

The boys explore the feelings and flaws Sam opens up about across his bonus tracks, many of which offer a refreshingly honest look at the ways he, like all of us, is still learning and imperfect. Meanwhile, JADE continues to cement exactly what makes her the woman, the ally, and the pop icon we know and love.

Plus, Mikey shares his spoiler-free thoughts on All Her Fault now that he’s finished the eight-part series, and Ben nominates a worthy contender for the year’s final Man of the Week.
