Episode Details

Laura and Carmen are back for one final World Cup debrief, and honestly... what in the holy American hell was that? From England's chaotic six-goal thriller against France (the real final, obviously), Bukayo Saka cementing his status as the nation's baby boy, Lamine Yamal snubbing Donald Trump, and why Argentina seemed more interested in WWE than football, there's plenty to unpack. They also dissect the weirdest halftime show, from AI Madonna, The Muppets, Louis Vuitton, Jennifer Hudson, Justin Bieber and Wayne Rooney saying exactly what everyone else was thinking.

Plus, Anne Hathaway has everyone asking the same question... she called her baby a buzzer beater?! After completely getting the wrong end of the stick, the girls spiral into a conversation about all the words and sayings they've been getting wrong for years. Expect misheard lyrics, family sayings that somehow survived for decades, Ghost Island, "meditation and…", and plenty of gloriously muddled moments along the way.

Elsewhere, Laura returns from a dreamy Northern Ireland escape packed with Game of Thrones locations, terrifying rope bridges, sea swims, seafood chowder and vintage shopping, while Carmen parties it up at The Streets at Alexandra Palace, gets recognised by a listener for the first time, and receives the most backhanded compliment imaginable.
