<p>Louise’s dad, Mike Thompson, joins us as our very first guest!</p><br><p>From what Louise was really like growing up, to sibling rivalries with Sam, suspensions and a very disciplined upbringing, Mike gives us a glimpse into what life was like in the Thompson household. We also discuss why he carries quail’s eggs, how becoming a grandfather has softened him, and his advice for Louise and Ryan as they try for their second child.</p><br><p>But the moment everyone will be waiting for: Mike has never watched Made in Chelsea. So we show him the iconic bridge scene with Louise and Spencer Matthews. His reaction is not what we were expecting…</p><br><p>We also put him to the test with Love Island, Gen Z slang, BuzzBallz, and finally the ultimate question from listeners: who is his favourite child, Sam or Louise?</p><p>--</p><p>(00:00) Big Mike Enters the Studio</p><p>(02:25) The Infamous Wallet and Quail’s Eggs</p><p>(05:01) Mike’s Old School Discipline</p><p>(10:20) Cleanliness Quirks and Daily Routines</p><p>(17:31) Why Did Louise Punch Her Dad Up the Eiffel Tower?!</p><p>(22:13) Mike Has Never Watched Made in Chelsea</p><p>(32:30) Mike’s Reaction to THAT Made in Chelsea Bridge Scene</p><p>(35:45) Is It OK for Men to Show Emotion?</p><p>(38:30) Mike’s Rant on Love Island</p><p>(39:06) Mike Tries to Decipher Gen Z Slang</p><p>(44:09) Mike Tries a Buzz Ball for the First Time</p><p>(47:26) Mike’s Best Life Advice</p><p>(49:10) Who Is the Favourite Child: Sam or Louise?</p><p>(50:00) Mike’s Advice for Louise and Ryan as They Grow Their Family</p><p>(54:05) Mike’s Final Words… “What’s He Said, She Said”</p><p>--</p><p>🗓 New episodes every Wednesday</p><br><p>📩 We’ve got a NEW email!</p><p>Want to get involved?
