  • Avert your eyes, it's Tummy Time (with Abigail Disney)
    May 6 2026

    We bet you pressed play on today's podcast praying we would talk about Dallas, didn't you? Well, you're in luck. Jane and Fi chat Dallas, Drake tribute acts, ageing gracefully, drinking before flights, and relaxing in jeans. There is a huge accent warning today. Please proceed with caution.


    Plus, Abigail Disney, film producer and granddaughter of Roy O. Disney, discusses her documentary ‘The American Dream and Other Fairy Tales’, which looks at income inequality by focusing on the financial struggles of workers at her family’s company.

  • He didn't realise he was talking to a gobsh*te! (with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall)
    May 5 2026

    Jane and Fi are reunited after the bank holiday, and they've concluded it was a bit hot! We hope you had a good one... Jane and Fi cover losing confidence in driving as you age, whether we’ve gone too far with the number of condiments available today, how cute really chunky babies are, and the pleasure of lending libraries.


    Plus, cook and writer Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall discusses his new cookbook ‘High Fibre Heroes’.
