  • 534 - JOE MARLER - Rank Rugby Initiations, Kissed By A Killer, & STEALING From Peter Crouch!
    Jan 30 2025
    You just have to take one look at Jaack and Stevie to come to the conclusion that they’re not exactly “rugby boys”. Cue retired England rugby legend Joe Marler. With precisely zero rugby knowledge between the hosts, Joe gives us a crash course in rugby and even puts Jaack’s newfound skills to the test with an actual scrum! Rugby has plenty of weird terms for the boys to learn. What is a Mulligrubber? How about an Alickadoo? Rugby players are also infamous for their gross initiations - Joe tells us stories involving spider pig, scissoring and spanking. We cover his Haka controversy, coming out of retirement, and his podcast interviewing people with obscure jobs. And we maaaay have accidentally caused beef between Joe Marler and Danny Aarons… Joe’s humour perfectly fits the vibe of Happy Hour, and this 90 minutes feels more like a main show than a Thursday guest interview!

  • 533 - Not So Superpowers 2
    Jan 27 2025
    Jaack has come up with a list of bizarre superpowers that the boys can choose to gain, however each superpower comes with a caveat that may make them wish they stayed a mere mortal. Would you want the ability to swim insanely fast, but you constantly stink of fish? Never have to wipe after a poop, but peeing takes 5x longer? Gain 3 inches in penis length but lose 3 inches of height? (High brow stuff). Elite fighting skills, irresistible to strangers, walking through walls… each superpower comes with a big catch. Plus it's not just the powers that are questionable as Jaack has a hygiene confession AND a sexual confession that we’re pretty sure he should have kept to himself… Check out #412 for the first instalment of Not So Superpowers!

  • 532 - TOM DAVIS - BAFTA Winner, Bad Auditions, & Bludgeoning Pigeons!
    Jan 23 2025
    We sit down with the multi-talented comedian, actor and all-around lovely geezer Tom Davis who has us howling for 90 minutes! Tom’s first job as a scaffolder is a far cry from the red carpets he walks today. Despite having never had any acting lessons, Tom stars in Wonka and Paddington 2. He shares what Timothée Chalamet is like off screen, and why the trailer he was given on set caused a bit of a problem! Tom co-created BAFTA winning ‘Murder In Successville’ which, despite ITV not being keen on the sitcom in the first script read through, went on to have a Netflix USA adaptation. Tom went from being a scaffolder to a stand up comedian in just a few years - though not without a few bad gigs along the way, especially a particularly bad set at Download festival where bodily fluids were thrown at him… We also chat about his podcast Wolf and Owl with fellow comic Romesh Ranganathan, and his one bad habit that had his viewers fuming. Plus why he’s not a huge supporter of Edinburgh Fringe, his scary footie match experience, and one of his early jobs scaring pigeons! Learn more about your ad choices.

  • 531 - Theories That Will RUIN Your Childhood!
    Jan 20 2025
    Nostalgia is beautiful. Looking back on our childhood with fond memories of sitting cross legged on the floor in front of the telly watching our favourite kids tv shows and movies for hours on end. Harmless, right? Wrong. Bro Hippo Stevie (for once that’s not an insult from us) has done a deep dive and found them to not be quite as innocent as we thought… How many childhood characters are secretly nonces? Is Harry Potter a murderer? Sex scenes in Spongebob? Schizophrenia in Finding Nemo? Incest in Rugrats? 100 mental illnesses in Hundred Acre Wood? WARNING: you will never be able to look at Fiona from Shrek the same way again… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Russell shares why his dad had to stop kissing him, and the insanely valuable gift from Ed Sheeran that he LOST. From being mugged for cupcakes, to awkward supermarket encounters, to the disgusting habit that made him late for his own gig, this episode is packed full of silly stories bound to set up the end of your week nicely!

  • 528 - Happy Hour’s Big Fat Quiz Of The Year 2024! (ft. Darragh Ennis & Matt Richardson)
    Dec 30 2024
    For the perfect episode to finish off 2024, Jaack is hosting the annual Happy Hour Big Fat Quiz, and this time we’re joined by two fan favourite guests from the year - Chaser Darragh Ennis and comedian Matt Richardson! Our guests take on Stevie as they look back on the biggest and silliest stories of the past year, including Hawk Tuah, viral Halloween costumes, Glasto headliners, and hippos with attitude. There’s major competition between Darragh and Stevie to see who can out-nerd each other. Jaack confesses something horrific he did in bed and Darragh offers some very helpful advice. And despite not being a football fan, Matt drops some insane ball knowledge. Happy New Year from all of us at Happy Hour, and see you next year for more FourSkins silliness!

  • 527 - HAPPY HOUR CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 2024! Secret Diaries, Sausage Rolls, & Secret Santa Shenanigans!
    Dec 23 2024
    Drinks are flowing, the FourSkins are glowing, and Father Rizzmas is Ho Ho Hoeing. This can only mean one thing…. HAPPY HOUR CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! The boys are joined by Danny Aarons’ manager Jack for his second appearance, and Dan is making his Happy Hour debut! We’ve swapped the Virgin Mary for vasectomy chat, presents for premature ejaculation, festivities for fleshlights, and roast dinners for roasting eachother. Alfie got a healthy dose of peer pressure to force him into drinking alcohol and the half a pint went straight to his head. Father Rizzmas is back for his most exuberant appearance yet. Robbie brought in some fancy crackers from John Lewis, but the surprises inside are NOT what we expected… Jaack had an awkward miscommunication at Harry Potter world, and Jack Smith talks about his own visit there where he took a wrong turn and ended up somewhere he DEFINITELY should not have been! We play a game where we all anonymously answer questions about eachother, but will our friendship stand up to it? Alfie has kept his promise to write and perform a festive grime rap, but does it live up to expectations? We said last year’s Secret Santa was the best one we’ve ever done… but does this one top it?! Merry Christmas from all of us here at Happy Hour! 💛 Alfie’s rap video - https://tinyurl.com/bdfhw4ys Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
