It's the end of an era. Roman Abramovich gets poisoned in Ukraine, his £5 billion in assets get frozen overnight, and two superyachts worth nearly a billion pounds go on the run to Turkey in a real-life Grand Theft Auto chase.

Also: we try blowjob mints, debate electric cars, dive into local Facebook group drama, celebrate the World Cup with a Lay's crisp sandwich, and Dave gets a cake in the face on day one of the new studio after losing a Frankfurter vs Bratwurst quiz.

Billionaires can do whatever they want. And it's absolutely fine.

We're in the new studio. There's a gravy hot tub. Dog arses on the wall. It's exactly what you'd expect.

This week: Roman Abramovich arrives at Stamford Bridge, bans the colour red, turns up to training in full kit demanding a kickabout, and has £40,000 worth of sushi flown to Azerbaijan by private jet, despite his mate literally being poisoned in a sushi restaurant. We try Japanese snacks in his honour.

We also blind rank ten types of fart. Scientifically.

Roman Abramovich sells a Russian oil company he basically stole for $13 billion, Fran delivers an urban myth as a children's bedtime rhyme about a stag do gone catastrophically wrong, Jim reads an original poem about DIY, dead men and the lies we tell each other, and we have a chat about the fact that 95% of people are just making it up as they go.

Goodbye old studio. You ferocious beast.

We're back! New puppy, same chaos. Dave's adjusting to life as a dog dad in the most unhinged way possible, we conduct a full health and safety risk assessment on his 2am noodle habit and he finally has his first ever crisp sandwich aged 37! We dive into part one of the genuinely mad true story of Roman Abramovich, from a Siberian orphan stealing diesel to the man who bought Chelsea. Oh, and there's a sketch. We won't explain the sketch.

We sit down with Amy O'Hara, Development Executive at Warp Films - the Sheffield-based production company behind Adolescence, Dead Man's Shoes, Four Lions, This Is England and some of the most important British films ever made.

Amy's career has taken her from DJing at Sheffield's legendary Threads nights, to Film4, the BFI, and now back home to Warp. We talk about how she broke into the industry, what it takes to get a film off the ground, the threat of AI to storytelling, why cinema isn't dead yet - and a very exciting hint at what's coming next from Warp. And we pitch her a few film ideas. She was very patient about it.

This week we're joined by Carl Maloney, founder of RGM Magazine — the man who's interviewed everyone from John Cooper Clarke to Shaun Ryder, all while championing unsigned bands from Sheffield and beyond.

We talk about the night Arctic Monkeys played their very first gig, bombing on stage at an open mic, building a music magazine from scratch, accidentally promoting an AI artist, and why the live music industry is heading for a crash.

Oh, and Alex Turner used to ask Carl for advice. Bless him.

We're out of the studio. This week we're at the Dog and Partridge in Sheffield - one of Guinness's officially rated top ten pubs in the UK to try the Holy Trinity: Guinness, Murphy's and Beamish, all on tap in one place.
