Social Media Ruins Everything

Hello there, and welcome along to the 21st episode of Social Media Ruins Everything. Today’s the day we’re given the keys to the podcast kingdom, and we’re on our way to taking over. Anyway, we’re recording, once again, in the new home of SMRE, the Podcast Studio Glasgow, which is very exciting. Mark and Producer Cam have been working very hard to get the space podcast-recording-ready, and it’s almost there. In this week’s episode, we cover Neil’s new routine of having an actual routine, Mark’s story of losing all his money to a Chinese vendor of pure shitey tat, how Neil’s mum dealt with Rutherglen gangsters and whether or not Neil enjoyed visiting Skye. Plus we deal with some listener Questions, Queries and Conundrums, plus 2 listeners tell us that we’ve made it to the top of their Spotify podcast charts, which is both satisfying and expected, in a way.

Hello, good evening and welcome to Episode 20 of Social Media Ruins Everything. It's a very special interview as we're joined in the new SMRE studio by Ross from Finnieston Clothing and the 15:41 Glasgow Central to Dalmornock train. Anyone, this is the first episode filmed and recorded in our new studio. It’s still a work in progress, especially when the guys moved in and discovered that trains pass by every 10 minutes. Something they didn’t realise when viewing the space. But to mark the occasion, they invited fashion entrepreneur Ross along to sit in and to share his story of starting a Glasgow fashion brand. We interrogate him on the process of designing, manufacturing and marketing a brand new range of men’s clothing, all based around the historic shipbuilding culture of Glasgow. Plus we cover raising children, dealing with food phobias, the concepts of mortality and the soul, and much more. Ross is also giving all SMRE viewers and listeners 20% off their next purchase by using the discount code SMRE15 (it was going to be 15%, but he generously said “why the fuck not, make it 20”.

And yes, these introductions are getting grander by the week. But when you're showcasing Scottish content as prime as this, it goes with the hallowed territory. Anyway, Mark was, once again, all along in the studio, as Producer Cam is still self-isolating with a terrible case of no sense of smell or taste. Co-host Neil was at home, after slaving all day over a client's Christmas present. Mark provides an update on his daughter's birthday party and his overnight stay in a police-filled hotel with a view. And Neil updates us on unlocking his latest business achievements, which was very encouraging to hear. The guys also chew over some Questions, Queries and Condundrums, which include Scottish independence, what they'd spend a lotto jackpot on (and how much they'd consider would be a jackpot), and what their most prized possession is. All of this, plus chat about the new studio space and the grandiose plans for it.

Thank you for coming along on our journey to turn this adventure into a full-time bill-paying career. Talking of which, here’s a link to our Patreon. Once again, Neil wasn’t able to travel to the studio, but the guys carry on nonetheless. Mark’s status as a social media influencer has been confirmed, and he has a discount code to prove it. Neil queries why charities still aren’t solving real-world problems, and he explores the topic of existentialism. The guys decide that it’s up to all of us to find our own raison d'être and not allow ourselves to be influenced by anyone else. They dive into this week’s listener/viewer-submitted “Questions, Queries and Conundrums”, and Mark tells his haunted hotel room story. And we get an update on the status of moving the show into a real and proper studio space. Exciting times. Did we mention our Patreon…?

Hello, good morning, good evening and welcome to whoever you are, wherever you are. This is episode 16 of Social Media Ruins Everything, the podcast and internet video show that dares to ask the big questions in life, such as “why is Mark such a Tory and why is Neil such a commie?” In this week’s episode, the guys cover Neil’s van woes, joiners who are fronts for drug cartels, the dichotomy of global poverty and global worker shortages and whether they’ll ever organise a group podcast colonic. They also deal with some texts and a phone call asking if the bike is still available. Despite pinning this prank on the infamous Howlin, Cam the Producer does some detective work and unearths on Gumtree the real culprit. And a new Cult Legend is born. Remember that we do a weekly private, members-only live stream that’s available exclusively to the cult inner circle at Patreon.

Welcome to episode 15 of Social Media Ruins Everything, the globally available internet podcast show featuring 2 bearded guys who are struggling to come to terms with their new status as moderately interesting cult leaders. In this episode, we cover the journey to content creation perfection, the joy of beards and broken down vans. We take a call on the hotline from fan-of-the-show Dermot, who reveals that the show has put in back in touch with a long-lost friend, who’s also a listener/viewer (and producer over at Patreon). We discuss the claim that Nicola Sturgeon is the most influential woman in the universe, based on the number of Google searches for her, Netflix milking the Chappell “controversy” for all its worth, and whether petting wild boars is a sensible idea. The OnlyFans GILF gets a mention (trigger warning) and we marvel that wonders of This Person Does Not Exist (play long here).
