Description

Your Internet Boyfriends is a weekly catch up podcast from two Irish comedians - one gay, one straight, both gorgeous - navigating dating, life and disasters in London through completely different lenses.


Each week is a mix of queer/straight laugh out loud stories, a little too honest confessions, unqualifited advice to listeners and the kind of unfiltered conversations you’ll whisper to your friends. Mark and Denis are the honest, funny and unexpectedly wholesome queer-straight friendship you didn’t know you needed.

After an incredible live podcast show, Denis’ family arrives in London… which quickly turns into multiple dinners, menu complaints, chicken nuggets diplomacy, and Mark finally meeting Denis’ mother (who may now prefer him to Denis). Meanwhile Mark escapes to Madrid for tapas, drag shows, and making new friends on a night out — before reality hits on the way home with delayed flights, drunken airport chaos, and getting stranded at Tottenham Hale in the middle of the night. Also in this episode: Sunglasses debates and Gen Z fashion Pokémon nostalgia and childhood memories Airport disasters and late-night travel chaos Why straight women run gay nightlife social logistics The strange joy of making crafts as a child Our beautiful producer and photgrapher www.instagram.com/_declankelly Get involved and send us an email hello@yourinternetboyfriends.com or send us a DM on Instagram or TikTok.

Why does Denis have to admire every hot man Mark points out, but Mark won’t engage when Denis clocks a hot woman? We start with Mark attempting a pre-show glow-up… only for a leaky fake tan bottle to leave him looking like he’s been splashed with brown sauce. Then it’s straight into a heated debate about street-spotting double standards. After that, we spiral through: Electric taxis making us feel sick Dragging bags across London for shows Classic FM as emergency calming music Hotel rooms with glass bathrooms (who is designing these and why do they hate love?) Awkward toilet logistics in relationships and the importance of keeping some mystery alive Plus: a Specsavers eye test existential crisis, contact lens chaos, and the internet’s current obsessions - Punch The Monkey (the bullied orphan monkey with an IKEA plushie sidekick).

We open with a completely unnecessary discussion about big balls (are they a thing? who’s seeking them out? why is aroma involved?) and somehow end up in Belfast, inside a queer vintage shop, and deep in a Matrix conspiracy spiral. This week we get into: Wet-look hair trauma and Brillcream flashbacks Mark’s four-and-a-half-hour Gatwick disaster featuring a landslide and a confused German family Gym audacity and a man boldly chatting up Lisa mid-set The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert The Matrix Our beautiful producer and photgrapher www.instagram.com/_declankelly Get involved and send us an email hello@yourinternetboyfriends.com or send us a DM on Instagram or TikTok.

This week you should probably listen on your own in a secure bunker because we spiral from medieval castle documentaries into gay housekeeping, changing room disasters, and discovering just how specific London nightlife can get. You're not ready. Mark keeps getting lost - first in a massive shop changing room situation, then in a clinic corridor while trying to manage the timing of a very important test sample. Denis revisits old-school doctor visits that felt more like going into someone’s sitting room than a medical appointment. We chat: the man rebuilding a medieval castle over 28 years sneaking out of changing rooms in socks and losing your cubicle the stress maths of clinic pee timing old GP visits vs modern medical centres terrifying pub stories that definitely may or may not be true London nightlife niches and why there is literally an event for everyone Our beautiful producer and photgrapher www.instagram.com/_declankelly Get involved and send us an email hello@yourinternetboyfriends.com or send us a DM on Instagram or TikTok.

Denis buys bread, bananas and a massive packet of Tampax while he navigates his roommate and girlfriend syncing up, but the house is spotless, everyone’s suddenly “project-based”… and an innocent hedge gets taken out. Mark has to deal with a thief in the lobby stealing everyone’s ASOS deliveries, and the only solution is getting everything delivered to the dodgy shop around the corner.

Mark revisits his former life as a church organist, explaining why it’s basically jazz improvisation with wing mirrors, unpredictable priests, and choirs who might pass out if you speed things up.

This week, Denis and Mark kick things off with a very serious investigation into the gutters (yes, those ones), the anatomy of thirst traps, and why Mark is suddenly wearing a very small Manchester United jersey. Then it’s on to festive drama: Denis’ roommate brings home a real Christmas tree that looks like “two feet tall and four feet wide,” sparking a full discussion on fat trees, skinny spikes, counter-top decorating and the long-running Christmas tree wars in Ennis. Elsewhere, Mark battles through a rainy Monday tour with one loudly problematic tourist who insists on calling him British, while his silent wife and mortified daughter form a Greek chorus of despair.

Denis and Mark are celebrating the return of the iconic Juno Birch to the podcast, catching up on her latest adventures and the wild world of monkeys stealing phones. This week, Denis tries to explain Ireland’s sudden football glory to Mark including Troy Parrott’s hat-trick and a parrot in Dublin Zoo who’s now somehow part of the story. We also unpack whether “boyfriend” is officially lame, when someone becomes a “partner,” and why office small talk has turned into a full-time sexuality guessing game. Meanwhile, George the cat is testing everyone’s patience with attempted mouth-licking and the constant risk of escape. Denis shares the terror of misgendering pets (“owners get very offended”) and Mark reveals his cat-sitting technique that basically involves slithering through a doorway like a break-in.

This week’s catch-up delivers: Denis accidentally witnessing a full arse on Bond Street, Mark seeing two (planned) arses, flirtation with two trendy Berlin lads, and the shocking moment a £17 brunch served them two sad fingernail-sized nuggets of “buttermilk chicken.” We also get into kombucha that tastes like the hot press, sink swamps, knives-as-snacks, Christmas décor trauma, Toymaster flashbacks, and Denis forgetting to compliment the cycling blouse that sent Instagram feral. Elsewhere, the lads chat about Lily Allen’s new album — her first in years — and the scandal that’s come with its brutally honest lyrics. There’s also talk of Paddington: The Musical, the stage adaptation nobody saw coming but somehow everyone’s talking about. A very normal week in queer London life — with more arses than necessary.

Elsewhere, the lads chat about Ireland’s newly elected president Catherine Connolly, a newly purchased red mask, and the tricky business of finding the right birthday gift.
