For the very last time, it’s your Friday Bonus Ball – with Gordon Smart, Martin Compston, and one last spin through the madness. No guests, no script, a bit of a plan – inanimate object rage, terrible auditions, words of wisdom and the sort of unhinged nonsense that somehow made this podcast magic. Thanks for joining us on every weird, wild, hungover, heartfelt Friday. We love you. FTGB.

After 280+ episodes, two live shows, a music festival that never quite happened, and a podcast friendship forged in squirrel suits and hangovers… it’s time to say farewell. For now. In this episode of Restless Natives, Martin and Gordon get brutally honest about why they’ve had to hang up the mics, and take a look back at some of the stand out moments: the live shows; Germany; standout guests and the wild listener stories. There’s laughter, there's near-tears, and there’s plenty of gratitude—for the listeners, the Lesmahagow truck stop, and each other. It’s not the end forever. Just the end for now, or at least til the bonus episode. Make sure you subscribe and leave a 5 star review!

It’s a solo mission this week as Gordon Smart flies the Restless Natives flag alone while Martin “Turbo Banana” Compston is somewhere between Vegas, Greenock and Dublin. But fear not—there’s no shortage of brilliant listener stories, wild detours, and even a wee tearjerker or two. We've a misheard lyric that may forever ruin a Nelly Furtado classic, tales of disastrous new car day and a chilling story involving a near-miss with Myra Hindley and Ian Brady. Plus we welcome a Restless Natives rainbow baby to the world. Don’t miss next Wednesday’s episode – it's an important one. Make sure you subscribe and leave a 5 star review!

This week, whilst Martin's back filming, Gordon's only gone and roped in the most resourceful of rascals, a man who embodies what Restless Natives is all about, the sporting hero, maverick and icon, tennis' most loved bad boy, Nick Kyrgios. Nick and Gordon chat having a peak at shower partners, eye watering bills, sharting next to Andy Murray, maintaining a sense of normality whilst at the top of your game and Nick answers the important questions: did he have a lunchbox? And, should fish be skin on or skin off? Make sure you subscribe and leave a 5 star review!

It’s your Friday Bonus Ball – and the boys are still together, but apart, Martin in Dublin and Gordon in Tisney Studios, opening up the inbox to find more brilliant correspondence from our resourceful rascals at home and overseas. They're reminiscing about Germany and Greg McHugh's wine chat, more new car day nostalgia, the never-ending wrath of being the “Scottish guy on set” and will Dua Lipa re-ignite the gnome business?
