Welcome to the Old Mates, New Laughs Podcast page – a place for those of us who grew up in the 80s, survived the 90s, and are now wondering how the hell we got to middle age so fast!
We’ve been mates for 40 years, which means we’ve seen it all – from dodgy 80s haircuts and 90s Britpop, to the joys (and struggles) of being responsible adults (sort of). Our podcast is all about looking back, laughing at ourselves, and figuring out how we got here. Expect nostalgia, bad jokes, and a healthy dose of sarcasm!
We know that our podcast is nothing without it's listeners, and this is where you come in:
Reminisce – Share your favourite memories from growing up in the best decades. What were your favourite kids TV shows? What toys did you play with?
Debate – Whether Blur or Oasis was better (or if you were too cool for both)
Laugh – At the stuff we all thought was normal back then
Relate – To the joys and disasters of hitting middle age
So, if you remember life before the internet, still miss Woolworths, and wonder how we’re now old enough for back pain… you’re in the right place!

This week, the lads hand the mic over to you! It’s our very first Ask Us Anything episode — and you lot ask some crackers. From the utterly ridiculous to the surprisingly heartfelt, we tackle your questions about life, our show, the 80s, the 90s, our most embarrasing moments, and why Andy either ate sausages or seemed to be drinking!
Expect nostalgia, nonsense, and a few truths that probably should’ve stayed off the record. Got a question for next time? Drop us a message on social media or email oldmatesnewlaughs@gmail.com — we might just answer it (badly).
