Welcome to the Old Mates, New Laughs Podcast page – a place for those of us who grew up in the 80s, survived the 90s, and are now wondering how the hell we got to middle age so fast!
We’ve been mates for 40 years, which means we’ve seen it all – from dodgy 80s haircuts and 90s Britpop, to the joys (and struggles) of being responsible adults (sort of). Our podcast is all about looking back, laughing at ourselves, and figuring out how we got here. Expect nostalgia, bad jokes, and a healthy dose of sarcasm!
We know that our podcast is nothing without it's listeners, and this is where you come in:
Reminisce – Share your favourite memories from growing up in the best decades. What were your favourite kids TV shows? What toys did you play with?
Debate – Whether Blur or Oasis was better (or if you were too cool for both)
Laugh – At the stuff we all thought was normal back then
Relate – To the joys and disasters of hitting middle age
So, if you remember life before the internet, still miss Woolworths, and wonder how we’re now old enough for back pain… you’re in the right place!

Welcome to Episode 23 of Old Mates New Laughs! This week, we log back into the wild world of the early internet, back when you had to ask your mum to hang up the phone so you could go online.
Join Brendan, Andy, and Mike as they remember the pixelated glory days of MSN Messenger, illegal LimeWire downloads, and dodgy chat room confessions. From the screech of dial-up to sneaky sessions at internet cafés, it’s all here in full nostalgic glory.
Expect chaotic stories, questionable tech decisions, and a few “How did we survive this?” moments. Whether you were a Neopets addict or got stuck in the Ask Jeeves rabbit hole, this episode is one big virtual throwback.
Log in, laugh loud, and join us next week when we explore the rise of the digital age and the early days of social media in Episode 24: Logging On For Life.
