I am firmly team wife and in my honest opinion the SIL has gotten off lightly. Please tell me if you thi
Roast Mortem - Shark Prank Call
It's here. It's happening. It's been done. As a thank you for getting me to 100K followers on Instagram, I've finally taken the bait and pranked the man who has a fear of sharks.

Granny Theft Auto 2: Voice Note from the Wife
In a sizzling follow up to yesterday's Roast Mortem, we have received a voice note from the wife in relation to her relations. Be gentle in the comments! As hard as it might be...
Roast Mortem - Granny Theft Auto
A listener got in touch with us over the weekend with a message to say that her MIL has offered 5,000 euro towards her grandson's education as a Birthday present - on the condition she gets to choose the school. I foolishly assumed everybody would be on the side of the wife but it seems many of you are supporters of the MIL. Have a listen and let us know which team you are! https://www.instagram.c
E.114 Sending The Text To The Wrong Person & Mystery Mick returns

The Weekly Roast Recommends: GoLoud Sleep Sounds
Alright guys, Mark here taking a break from the roasting of modern life, with an urgent recommendation: We need to address a massive, universal crisis that is currently destroying our collective sanity...our completely broken sleep schedules.

LiveLoon: The Bride Is Back
So it would appear our Bride up North isn't happy about the wedding fund. She believes it's the 'exact same' thing as her asking for a car in advance of her wedding. Have a listen and let me know what you think of her response. I've exhausted all avenues of trying to find common ground, I think. I truly believe we have completely run out of road when it comes to reasoning or rationale. Thanks for
