Incestuous Wangs (5-5)

Incestuous Wangs (5-5)

Although we have no idea what we're gonna say, this episode has a sense of inevitability. You get Rachel Woollett as a guest. Sooner or later, the topic of discussion will arrive at incestuous wangs. Listen to find out how, why and who with! We did discuss other things but incur world, nothing beats wangs.

Rife with Ablutions (5-4)

Rife with Ablutions (5-4)

Let's all enjoy Ben and Nick having recorded an episode in mid 2020 and then sitting on it for over six months. Why would they do this? There must be a plan. A bigger picture. Some clandestine motive. Nope. They're idiots. But idiots who talk and amuse.

Apocalips Wow (5-3)

Apocalips Wow (5-3)

Listen with even more sheer excitement than you've ever felt before as Ben and Nick record a podcast without actually being together.

Four Women, One Cup (5-2)

Four Women, One Cup (5-2)

After so many years of shame and despair, Ben and Nick finally reach their 50th episode of We've Got No Idea What We're Gonna Say. How to celebrate this milestone? They asked some lovely ladies to be guests on the show and made the episode longer than usual!

And they didn't slapped or punched? Something went very right! 

Huge thanks to the always fabulous Nicole See, Jody Silveston, Vicky Hoyles and Sasha Stoddard.

Season 4 is Terminated (4-12)

Season 4 is Terminated (4-12)

As season four draws to a close, we remember all those good times over the whole season of 12 episodes.

Who'd have thought, when we started season 4 just five years ago, that the end would come so soon.

Here's to the future. And season 5. And the Terminator movie sequels.

In a nod to the late (not dead, just unpunctual) great Barry Norman, Ben & Nick talk about all the crazy things they get up to.

Party on everyone. Party on...

It's Not Worth-ing It (4-5)

It's Not Worth-ing It (4-5)

Because pre-recording the podcast means less work for them, Ben & Nick pre-recorded a large portion of this podcast.

Ben was performing in Cinderella in the seaside town of Worthing over Christmas 2015, and we interviewed some of the poor people who had to appear on stage beside him.

Ben & Nick are joined by the fabulous Matt Evers & Mark Read, then the wonderful Camilla Sacre-Dallerup.

Nick did nothing special all Christmas.

Except this.

Weirdy or Beardy (4-3)

That's about it.

Feb 19, 202019:58
I'll Off-White (4-2)

Squeak (4-1)

Squeak (4-1)

In the words of Martin Luther King:
"Ben and Nick have made it to Season 4 of their podcast"

He was a bit weird like that.
He had a dream though.
So did we.
It made us cry.
This is our podcast about it.*

*This episode is in fact a normal podcast interview with comedian Joe Pasquale, and has nothing to do with dreams or Martin Luther King.

Team WGNI (3-12)

Team WGNI (3-12)

2012 was a great year for Britain. The Diamond Jubilee, the Olympics, and in honour of all that makes Britain great, we offer up this podcast.

Shattered Bonds (3-10)

When looking for a hot girl to return to the cosy space between Ben & Nick, who better than Lainy Scott?!

We quite like her.

Feb 19, 202020:00
MiddleSex (3-9)

MiddleSex (3-9)

Having finally escaped from his restraining device on the end of the phone line, Adam Jenkins rushes to join his old comrades-in-alms Ben & Nick.

The first ever RETURNING studio guest returns and is funny. Then we started recording him and it all went right.

Feb 19, 202020:00
Cereal Killers (3-8)

Cereal Killers (3-8)

When two boys in the prime of their life are left alone, with the whole of London at their doorstep, a world of possibilities just moments away - what do you expect will happen? Drunken debauchery? Drug-fuelled hysteria? Catatonic guilt-free sex with multiple partners?

No, they discuss their favourite breakfast cereal.

Seriously.

Feb 19, 202020:00
Voice Males (3-7)

Voice Males (3-7)

Is there a more heavenly, ethereal sound than two idiots talking? Of course there is.

However, returning to their roots (with a bottle of hair dye) Ben & Nick sit down in front of a microphone: Scriptless. Guestless. Witless.

Feb 19, 202020:00

Oh, and Ben, Mandi and Nick recorded a podcast as well.

Feb 19, 202020:00

The Poisoned Challis (3-5)

Marleeeeeeene!

No, we haven't gone (more) mental. But we have been joined by legendary actor John Challis, from such shows as "Only Fools & Horses" and "The Green Green Grass".

Not only that, we're in Weston-super-Mare. It literally (and figuratively) doesn't get any better than this...

Feb 19, 202020:00
The Buttocksfly Effect (3-4)

Just like the well known "Butterfly Effect", if you listen to this podcast, chaos will happen.

Feb 19, 202020:00
Chaos in Cromer (3-3)

Chaos in Cromer (3-3)

Just when you thought that seaside towns in Norfolk were quiet and serene, it turns out - you are right!

Of course, when Ben & Nick tried to record a podcast live from backstage at the Pavilion Theatre on Cromer Pier, things turn from awful to worse, and then a bit better, and then much worse. Then we started the recording.

Feb 19, 202020:00
Salt of the Earth (3-2)

Salt of the Earth (3-2)

Ben & Nick ask you to give them a lick, to share in their salty goodness.

History Repeating (3-1)

History Repeating (3-1)

You begged, you screamed, you wailed and gnashed your teeth - but we still started a new series!

And if you don't like that joke, there's a whole host of hilarious ramblings this episode that you may not approve of either. (but if you don't like us, maybe new regular guest Adam Jenkins will make you happy)

Feb 19, 202020:00
Father Than We've Ever Gone Before (2-12)

Father Than We've Ever Gone Before (2-12)

A dark dark day dawns on Earthville, as Season Two of WGNI draws to a close.

We've run out of people that aren't related to us, so Ben's Dad pops into the WGNI studio for a drop of tea and some light dirty-talk.

WGNI will be back. Oh yes....

Feb 19, 202020:00
Lie To Me (2-11)

Lie To Me (2-11)

Season Two is drawing to a close, which may make you sad. Thankfully we have the incredibly attractive Lainy Scott in the studio to make us happy!

Within minutes of her arrival, we were alluding to penises. This is the effect she has on us... :)

Feb 19, 202020:00
Genie-Us (2-10)

Genie-Us (2-10)

WGNI returns (from an unplanned hiatus) with a bang, as Tyler Fayose brings his own special brand of magic, and his dusty lamp, and his painted boobs, and his scary accents to the WGNI studio. You might have been waiting a long time - but BY ALL THAT IS WARM AND FLUFFY - it was worth it!

Feb 19, 202020:00
Playing Ketchup (2-9)

Playing Ketchup (2-9)

We have all had dealings with prostitutes, so we got star of children's tv Hi5, Luke Roberts to tell us about them. I think you'll be surprised with his knowledge and experience.

Whatever you do in life, think "What Would Luke Roberts Do?"

Feb 19, 202020:00
Milk & More (2-8)

Milk & More (2-8)

We knew we needed something. We knew we needed liquid. White liquid. Squeezed from a cow's udder.  We knew this.

But something was missing... It wasn't enough... We felt a gaping hole inside our souls...

Kylie Butler filled our hole.

Feb 19, 202020:00

If you thought that hearing Ben & Nick talk to people you never heard of was good - you'll probably think the same this time.

Feb 19, 202020:00
Christmas Boobs (2-5)

Christmas Boobs (2-5)

In a first for WGNI, Ben and Nick are joined not by one slamming hottie - but TWO!

By the Hard Skin of Our Teeth (2-4)

Your ears have never had it this good...

Live from the New Players Theatre, in Charing Cross' "New Players Theatre"; Ben and Nick sit outside the girls toilets for twenty minutes.

The Walk of Shame (2-2)

The Walk of Shame (2-2)

The average level of attractiveness in the WGNI studio sharply rises for 20 minutes, with the arrival of the one and only Louise Henry.

From humble beginnings on Cromer Pier, she's scaled the showbiz world to be only the second person to force themselves into the tight space between Ben and Nick.

You'll laugh, you'll cry, Louise did both.

[Originally broadcast 01/11/2010]

Than live without them in mine.

Feb 03, 202020:00
Diamond Geezer (1-8)

Diamond Geezer (1-8)

Ben and Nick are the loveliest idiots this side of a place with lovlier idiots.

They talk and talk and talk, and never prepare what they're going to say. They do exactly what it says on the tin.

The question is where did they get a tin that says "Ben and Nick talk and talk and talk and never prepare what they're going to say" anyway?

Feb 03, 202020:00
Sunday Sport (1-7)

Sunday Sport (1-7)
