Who Takes the Socks Off?
Ever laid awake asking yourself the deeply unnecessary questions in life? Welcome home.
Join Ross & Simon as they tackle life’s most bizarre mysteries, absurd urban legends, pop-culture plot holes, and hilarious, unspoken everyday truths. No filter, no topic off-limits, and absolutely no guarantee of actual wisdom, just top-tier British banter, sharp humour, and ridiculous debates.
Whether they're dissecting why the English language makes zero sense or questioning childhood TV logic, every episode is a deep dive into the absurd.

Ever wondered why human beings willingly pay good money to sweat through their shirts or shit their pants?
Why they would want to spike their blood pressure, and question every life choice they’ve ever made?
Well this month you can find out as we're diving headfirst into the twisted world of fear!
To help us unpack why our brains love being absolutely terrified, we invited Mike and John from the Pocket Knockers podcast to join the chaos.
Together, we dissect the psychology of fear, break down the science of the "fight vs. flight" response (and why our default is usually "scream and hide"), and debate the merits of voluntary trauma.
Whether you’re a certified horror junkie or the type of person who leaves the bathroom light on after watching a creepy trailer, this episode has something for you.
So strap in and get ready for the ride of your life (please keep your arms inside the podcast at all times)
