The conversation then shifts to more serious territory, including gun control in Australia following the Bondi attacks, the current political climate around free speech in the UK, and the troubling way victims are often sidelined in high profile cases like the Epstein files. Along the way, Josh and Sean discuss vegan news including new restaurants and Golden Gaytime ice creams.

Josh and Sean are back with more DIY podcasting and unstructured conversation in episode 74 of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong).
This week they chat about Sean’s recent experience at the Lady Gaga concert in Brisbane, Australia including the security mishaps and thwarted stage invader. The hosts then move on to complaining about the general cost of living in the modern world and ask “Why is everything a subscription?”.
There is also a BIG discussion on season 5 of Stranger Things, the retro-tinged, sci-fi smash hit from Netflix. Josh and Sean reflect on the show’s growth over the years, their likes and dislikes, and how the Lily Allen album West End Girl means they will never be able to look at David Harbour the same again.

Tuesday, December 9, 2025 • Duration 01:13:45
Josh and Sean are back for another episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), this time trying to tackle several big questions facing humanity. Are we past the point of no return when it comes to the natural world? How is capitalism and human exploitation connected to the degradation of the planet? Just a couple of lighthearted topics!
They also chat about the impact of drinking and addiction on mental health, sharing their own personal stories and varying experiences of dependency, and take a detour to discuss the sensational new film Homebound by filmmaker Neeraj Ghaywan.
It’s not a laugh a minute in this episode but you can rely on the hosts to be somewhat irreverent, self-deprecating, and ill-informed in their usual way.

Ep 72 - Audiences at Concerts Are Ruining Everything
Tuesday, December 2, 2025 • Duration 01:13:36
Josh and Sean are back with another episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), the podcast where two exes who are still great fiends talk about life, pop, and politics.
This week finds the pair decompressing after their trip to Paris to see Lady Gaga in concert. While Gaga was incredible, the anti-social behaviour of the audience ruined the experience. Is this a growing trend of filming on phones, getting too drunk, and talking loudly?
The vegan food scene of Paris also gets unpacked, while the pair also go on a trip down memory lane to discuss the life and career of pop culture icon Udo Kier following his passing.
Ep 71 - Are Celebrities at Greater Mental and Physical Risk?
Tuesday, November 25, 2025 • Duration 01:13:15
Josh and Sean return with a packed episode that sweeps through vegan kebabs, dodgy UK train journeys, Leeds shopping tales, and the ghost obsession taking over York.
They riff on the rise of content creators, look back at Josh’s road rage, and contemplate their upcoming trip to Paris. Politics gets a turn as they tackle supermarket automation, government decisions on asylum, and the rise of younger voices like Zohran Mamdani. Then it is straight into the world of pop icons, with Sean reliving the magic of the Five reunion concert and the hosts unpacking the pressures on stars like Lady Gaga, Lily Allen, and the lads from Five. They close with a serious look at the disturbing incident involving Ariana Grande and the wider conversation around safety and mental health in the entertainment industry.
In episode 70 of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), Josh and Sean take listeners on a wide-ranging conversation that moves between pop culture, personal survival stories, and social issues.
Josh shares the tale of his ongoing hand injury before the pair dive into the 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, celebrating Cyndi Lauper, Salt-N-Pepa, and the legends who shaped music history. They unpack the nostalgia of classic music videos, YouTube’s strange power to shape our listening habits, and the curious role of Cleveland in rock mythology.
The conversation broadens into a deep reflection on the meaning of awards such as The Grammys, comparing icons like Juan Gabriel and Dolly Parton, before turning to modern life such as the chaos of British weather, the legality of phones in schools, and how we talk to young people about explicit online content.
Closing on a heartfelt note, Josh and Sean discuss masculinity, shared responsibility, and the importance of empathy in a changing world.
