“There’s nothing Spookier than a sh*t husband" - Laura Smyth 2025.

In this spook-tacular bonus episode of Shouldn’t Laugh But, Laura and Carmen are serving ghosts, ghouls, and questionable life choices.

Laura reveals her costume plans (is it sexy… or a work of modern art?), Carmen’s got a foolproof hack to keep the trick-or-treaters far, far away, and somehow Elon Musk and Teslas make it into the mix - because what’s scarier than Elon?

Plus, one listener writes in after her son’s “sincere” letter to his dodgeball club turned out to be powered by ChatGPT… and the results are terrifyingly funny.

Grab your pumpkin spice and press play - it’s Halloween chaos, Shouldn’t Laugh But style
