In Episode 69 of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean start with laughs and end with some serious reflection.
They kick things off by unpacking the genius of Absolutely Fabulous including its place in British comedy, generational humour, and lasting cultural impact. From there, Josh recounts his recent night at a Suzanne Vega concert, sparking a heartfelt chat about live music, the Royal Albert Hall, and their excitement for the upcoming Lady Gaga concert in Paris.
The conversation takes a spontaneous detour to Manchester, where Sean reflects on the city’s creative pulse and community feel especially compared to the complex energy of London. From quirky bars to vegan groceries, the pair explore why this Northern city is so loved.
They also share thoughts on the British royal family’s latest controversies and what they reveal about modern Britain. Why do we put up with this from these people?

In this episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean dive into a packed conversation that swings from royal scandals to societal collapse.
They kick things off with the impact of daylight savings and explore the UK royal family’s immense wealth, privilege, and the lingering controversies surrounding Prince Andrew (now known as Prince Mountbatten Windsor). The hosts unpack public frustration with the monarchy, the abuse of power among elites, and how wealth hoarding connects to the slow-motion collapse of society as we know it.
The discussion turns philosophical as they explore how past civilizations have fallen, what wealth inequality looks like today, and whether we’re repeating the same mistakes.
From there, the mood lightens as they reflect on Lily Allen’s artistic journey, her deeply personal new album, and the emotional truth in her songwriting. David Harbour’s ears will be burning! They also dip into the cult TV world of Dark Shadows and wrap things up with a chat about Halloween, nostalgia, and the strange comfort of spooky traditions.

In this episode, Josh and Sean dive into the strange fascination people have with the tragedy of 9/11 and the world-changing events at the World Trade Centre. Sean opens up about his own deep curiosity for the disaster and wonders whether it’s tied to his own history of trauma.
The conversation explores the lasting health impacts faced by those who lived, worked, or volunteered near Ground Zero, and how similar struggles are now being endured by survivors of the ongoing destruction in Gaza.
Things lighten up (sort of) as the pair revisit the cult classic The Lost Boys, discussing its enduring influence on pop culture, the darkness behind its legacy, and the heartbreaking story of young star Corey Haim.

In this episode, Josh and Sean take you on a journey to the sun-soaked shores of San Fruttuoso and Portofino, Italy and back again to the stark realities of wealth inequality and migration politics of the UK.
The conversation widens into a bigger picture: how migration debates miss the real causes of economic struggle, why the left needs to engage more meaningfully, and how unions once shaped attitudes around social justice but are now being locked out of political discourse. Overpopulation, resource management, and capitalism’s role in fuelling inequality all get a mention.

The conversation also explores the disturbing role AI is playing in fuelling gendered violence, as well as the unique ways women and girls are impacted by the violence of war.
Balancing the serious with the unexpected, the hosts then turn their attention to Hollywood and dig into the surprising and complicated family history of Sean Astin. From politics to pop culture, this episode covers it all.

Josh and Sean are back with another episode that jumps from the silly to the serious and everywhere in between.
This week they explore different cultural traditions, from the Mexican rat version of the tooth fairy to the curious Christmas custom of feeding and then beating a log with a stick. The conversation then takes a sharp turn into celebrity territory as they discuss Lady Gaga’s fiancé Michael Polansky, his impressive achievements, and what this says about wealth, privilege, and the whole “nepo baby” phenomenon.
From there, they move into politics and art, reflecting on the latest Banksy piece in London, if Lily Tomlin was in Grease, and the ongoing trauma faced by the Palestinian people. It’s an episode that balances humour, pop culture, and some deeply important issues.
Listen in, laugh with us, and maybe even question the world around you a little more.

In episode 60 of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean dive into a mix of music, politics, and pop culture with their usual humour.
Sean shares his thoughts on Lady Gaga’s new music video for The Dead Dance, directed by Tim Burton and filmed on Mexico City’s eerie Island of Dolls in Xochimilco. They explore the legends behind the setting and its haunting atmosphere.
The hosts also dig into the troubling history of The Biggest Loser and reality TV’s exploitative side, asking what compassionate campaigns for wellness should look like. Representation of fatness in media takes centre stage as they reflect on harmful stereotypes and the desperate need for better narratives.
And of course, no episode would be complete without a dose of politics, this time questioning accountability in the wake of Angela Rayner’s resignation.
Join Josh and Sean for conversation that moves from spooky dolls to serious reflections, with plenty of laughter along the way.

From a doorstep run-in with Jehovah’s Witnesses to the blurred lines between cults and consumerism, this week’s chat covers identity, stereotypes, and the strange cultural pull of the Labubu craze.
They also explore the side effects of weight loss medications like Mounjaro, reflect on societal values, and debate the enduring cultural significance of Superman, especially with David Corenswet stepping into the cape.

Josh and Sean start this episode with the small but necessary stuff (life admin, weather chat, energy companies, and travel memories) before spiralling into a full-on rant fest about AI disinformation and how technology is changing the way we think, trust, and create.
Expect musings on whether AI can ever be ethical, why it might be dangerous in mental health contexts, and the problematic reality of using AI in creative industries. They also explore the erosion of trust in media, the difficulty of separating fact from fiction, and the cultural connections that keep us connected.
It’s a journey from the everyday to the existential with a few laughs, a bit of nostalgia, and plenty to think about along the way.

In this episode of Tell Me Where I'm Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean take you on a wide-ranging journey through music, pop culture memories and making a difference. From the synthy genius of A-ha to the enduring Americana aesthetic of Brandon Flowers and The Killers, they explore the emotional pull of live music, queer representation, and why jukebox musicals often miss the mark.
There’s a heartfelt deep-dive into The Goonies and the cultural messiness of 80s kids’ films, including Cyndi Lauper’s unforgettable tie-in and her foray into professional wrestling. As always, it’s not all pop culture. Josh and Sean also talk about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the urgency of community activism, and how queer joy and solidarity intersect with resistance.
Oh, and there's a shout-out to the upcoming third anniversary of their Queer Open Mic in London.

In Episode 54, Josh and Sean dive into a wide-ranging chat about the power of nostalgia, the legacy of childhood television, and how media shaped their early experiences. They reflect on the passing of Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and how his legacy on The Cosby Show has been overshadowed by the criminal activity of Bill Cosby.

In this wide-ranging episode of Tell Me Where I'm Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean unpack a recent trip to Brighton with all the salty seaside vibes, vegan eats, and unexpected celebrity chatter you’d expect from the UK’s most eccentric coastal city.
But it’s not all rock candy and ghost trains on the pier. The pair dive into weightier topics like trans rights, the performative side of activism, and whether politics really ever gets progressive. They share raw reflections on ageing out of party culture, the pressures of social media, and why concerts just aren’t what they used to be.
Also up for discussion:
- Brighton’s unique culinary and cultural identity
- What makes seaside towns both nostalgic and seedy
- The impact of documentaries like Paris is Burning
- The cost of being a musician in the streaming era
- Why Scarlett Johansson might be making odd career choices
Expect candid laughs, heartfelt insights, and a lot of thoughts on what it means to belong.
Listen, share, and let us know where you think we’re going (wrong).
Enjoy the ride!
