In this episode, we unleash the 'Lady Rage', tackling the lack of pockets in women’s clothing, perimenopausal brain fog, and men’s (alleged) gift-buying inadequacies.

Significant Other Machine Teaser

Coming Soon!

In the shattered realm of Darkness and Mourning, corruption bleeds through every stone. Ancient caverns writhe with forgotten horrors. The cursed have awakened, and their hunger is endless. Few dare to descend. Fewer return.

Retro gaming season hits hard at Christmas. Maybe it’s the glow of fairy lights that reminds us of CRT scanlines, or the way wrapping paper sounds suspiciously like cartridge sleeves. Either way, it’s Prime Nostalgia Season, and if you’re shopping for the retro gamer in your life (or, you know, yourself), these books will slide into a stocking like a pixelated sled barreling down an ice level.

I’m thrilled to say that Significant Other Machine is complete and officially in the editing phase. If all goes well, it will step into the world in January 2026.

This week, Adam and Keith unwrap the very finest crap nobody asked for: the ultimate Middle Raged Gift Guide. From overpriced pasties the size of a canoe to incontinence pants, the chaps trawl through the most spectacularly awful gifts aimed squarely at folk of a certain age. Expect sarcasm, despair, and an unhealthy amount of middle aged humour as they decide which gifts deserve a place under the tree — and which should be launched into the sun.

Toby Steele stumbles into a Cold War experiment that makes him faster, stronger and dangerously useful. A secret UK department wants him wiped out before anyone notices.

Some nights, usually when I’m supposed to be asleep or paying attention to a Teams call, a thought sneaks in and starts rearranging the furniture in my brain: “What if we eventually run out of new songs?”

TOP SECRET MEMO

The less-than-dynamic, middle-aged duo are back with another dose of midlife humour and righteous rage. In this episode, Adam and Keith shine a light on the great British rip-off. From the price of a pint to the cost of parking, the chaps delve into some of the most egregious examples of rip-off pricing.

Melt - CHO - 2009

Physicists tell us the universe has limits - a smallest possible distance (the Planck length), a smallest possible slice of time (the Planck time), and even a smallest possible quantity of energy. But none of those compares to the smallest quantity known to humankind: the amount of a fucks I give when a corporation updates its Terms & Conditions.

In this episode, Adam and Keith hark back to the days when we bought music on cassettes and CDs, doorbells just chimed, and software came on a disc... usually in a nice box with a weighty manual.

Cold Heart October - Coming Soon

It’s that time again — the one month a year when the rest of the world briefly catches up with me and embraces the strange. Shadows get longer, doorbells ring, and everyone pretends they aren’t secretly delighted to be spooked.

We’re living in a zero-trust society — a kind of military lockdown of the heart. Everyone’s on high alert, running emotional surveillance like it’s national security. Text messages become evidence; glances are logged as suspicious activity. And beneath all of it hums the same quiet terror: I am not enough.

Can't Take Any More - Cold Heart October

Tired of fake TikTok “life hacks”? Here’s why the “my grandma taught me this” trend feels credible but is actually nonsense — a masterclass in fake wisdom and social proof.

When the boundary between man and machine blurs, you get technothrillers: high-octane suspense, gritty conspiracies, and speculative tech that’s just plausible enough to haunt your dreams.

Middle Raged Episode 34 - out now!

The more precisely you can describe something, the fewer people want to talk about it.

Set in present-day Ireland, It’s about a burned-out 90s rocker from the West Coast with paranormal singing abilities and a gorgeous, bouncy young YouTube star from the north who has a super popular paranormal investigations channel.
