Episode description

In this episode, comedian Nick Helm joins Lucy and Aasmah to give some, often furious, adjudications on a series of AIBU? threads, while also managing to bring Nick Knowles into the proceedings, somehow. Our hosts also have the customary rifle through the classics section and delight in some of the terrible excuses people have received over the years (when we say 'excuses', we mean 'porkies'). This includes the time someone was late for work because their hamster was 'having a lie-in'. 


They also empathise with the nightmare that is seemingly sentient household goods that know exactly how to send us into a tailspin of rage, and read some, frankly, eye-watering stories of home beauty disasters. Apparently, there were A LOT of women walking around with egg in their hair as teenagers.

Be warned, this episode gets a bit sweary, so maybe not a listen for the school run.
