   This week I am joined on the sofa by the gorgeous Iz Hesketh. We're dealing with stolen ashes, uninvited girlfriends and the reality of big city living.

   ELLIOTT BRADY | 45 MINUTES OF BEING MUGGED AND A CASE OF PUBIC LICE

   This week on Agony Uncle, I’m telling you about the time I got mugged for 45 MINUTES. Yes, you read that correctly. Forty five entire minutes. We’re also getting into boyfriends who can’t stop flirting, exes who come back at the worst possible time and a Grindr hookup that ended in a rather unfortunate case of pubic lice. Lovely stuff. AND… THE AGONY UNCLE PATREON IS OFFICIALLY LIVE! 🎉 Introducing UNFILTERED, our brand new Patreon exclusive, where things get a little more personal, a lot more inappropriate and considerably less suitable for the general public. With extra episodes dropping every Friday, expect exclusive content, even more oversharing and conversations that don’t make it onto the main podcast. And to kick things off, I’m putting myself in the hot seat for our very first UNFILTERED episode. 🔒 Join the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Agonyuncle (https://patreon.com/Agonyuncle) Got a dilemma or a story that deserves to be heard?

   GABRIEL CLARK | MISSING GROOMS, THREE BOYFRIENDS & PRETTY PRIVILIGE

   This week I’m joined by actor Gabriel Clark, and somehow we’ve got a wedding with no groom, a man with more boyfriends than expected and a debate over whether pretty privilege can ruin a friendship. We get into Gabriel’s career, rejection, the absolute WTF moments that come with being an actor and, of course, his experience playing Mikey Driscoll in Channel 4’s Tip Toe. Plus, we attempt to solve your relationship dilemmas, take a very questionable trip to Chaos Court and find out what Gabriel would tell his younger self. Basically: missing grooms, secret boyfriends and pretty privilege. Just another week at Agony Uncle.

   EPISODE NINE: GOD, GRINDR & GOLDEN SHOWERS

   Dan Harry joins me on the sofa this week and somehow we end up discussing the fine line between micro-cheating, dating someone who communicates like a brick wall and one wedding night confession that genuinely left us needing divine intervention. We’re getting into your dating dilemmas in the Agony Inbox, heading back to the Shelves for two stories that get progressively more unholy and Chaos Court is officially in session over one boyfriend, one birthday and one VERY unwanted plus one. Basically, God may forgive, but Agony Uncle absolutely will not.

   EPISODE EIGHT: KINKS, COURTROOMS AND 310 EUROS

   Episode Eight is here and this week I’m joined by the brilliant Jason Leigh Winter and somehow we end up covering kinks, questionable decisions and one of the most unhinged nights in Paris we’ve EVER had submitted to the pod. We’re talking trust issues after cheating, friendships that might have run their course and the rules around dating a friend’s ex. And then there’s the Shelved story… a French lawyer, roleplay and €310 left on the bedside table. I fear no further explanation will prepare you. It’s chaotic. It’s questionable. It’s Agony Uncle. _______________________ Jason Leigh Winter Insta (@Jasonleighwinter) https://www.instagram.com/jasonleighwinter YouTube (@Jasonleighwinter) https://youtube.com/@jasonleighwinter?si=UG0XK6ATjGmQCK23 To submit your problems to the Agony Inbox, fill out the form below; https://tally.so/r/ODP708 To submit your crazy stories to the shelf, fill out the form below; https://tally.so/r/pbZJj1 To submit your arguments to Chaos Court, fill out the form below; https://tally.so/r/NpOR5O Hosted on Acast.

   EPISODE SEVEN: FUNERAL HOOKUPS, CHEATING BOYFRIENDS AND CONTEMPLATING LOVE

   This week I’m joined by Dom Lawrence for an episode that somehow takes us from cheating scandals to funeral hookups… and yes, someone ends up hiding a Grindr date in a wardrobe. We’re talking getting over the guy you never actually dated, whether being single is a choice or a defence mechanism, exes infiltrating your dating life and the crime of cropping your boyfriend out of the holiday carousel. Plus, the Agony Shelf delivers possibly its most unhinged submission yet. All I’m saying is: there’s a coffin involved. It’s chaotic, questionable and probably best we don’t tell anyone’s nan.

    EPISODE 4: CONDOMS, CRISIS & CRIMES AGAINST DIET COKE

    Can condoms really be an ick? What do you do when your boyfriend has an existential crisis in the back of your best friend’s dad’s car? And is putting an empty Diet Coke can back in the fridge a criminal offence?

    EPISODE 3: VIRGINS, VENGEANCE AND VERY MIXED SIGNALS

    Should a weed habit be a dealbreaker? Is 27 too old to be a virgin? And at what point does posting an Instagram story become psychological warfare? This week, Elliott and Brandon tackle dating app addiction, financial red flags, revenge plots, confusing gym crushes and situationships that seem to come with more terms and conditions than a phone contract. Plus, one listener’s petty act of vengeance leaves us asking the important question: is it toxic if it’s funny?
