Show Notes
A NEW PODCAST. THE SAME OLD COMPLAINTS. 🎉 Welcome to Another Day Ruined — a comedy help desk for life, the universe and all the minor modern dilemmas that push us over the edge. Join Jack Dee, Seann Walsh and Sara Morgan - three friends with plenty to complain about and some questionable solutions - as they tackle the everyday irritations that can ruin your day. This week: why can nobody understand a simple house move? When did British people start calling autumn “fall”? And why do people phone you BEFORE putting their headphones in? Plus, wildly unreliable weather forecasts, the tyranny of the voice note, and some much-needed rules for modern phone etiquette. But it’s not all doom and gloom. We’re also hunting for glimmers - those unexpected little moments that remind us life might not be entirely terrible. What’s ruined your day? Tell us at [email protected], and follow @anotherdayruinedpod for clips and behind-the-scenes chaos.

After 202 episodes, it's time to say goodbye to Oh My Dog. In our final episode, we reminisce about the Kevin Bishop saga, catch up with Dolly, Mildred and Juniper, reveal what's next for the three of us and why this isn't really goodbye... and there's Jack's MOT. Another Day Ruined, our brand new podcast launching this September, plus our live show at the Edinburgh Fringe. Thank you to everyone who has listened, laughed and supported us over the last three years. We genuinely couldn't have done it without you and we're excited about the new show! 🐶 Oh My Dog may be ending... 🎙️ ...but we'll see you very soon on Another Day Ruined.
The penultimate episode of Oh My Dog is here… and so is our brilliant dog expert Simon Parry Moreno! Simon joins Jack, Seann and Sara to answer your dog dilemmas - from Mildred’s pulling on walks and barking in the garden, to keeping dogs safe in the heat, cooling tricks, whether dogs need haircuts, and why shaving some breeds can actually do more harm than good. Plus: we revisit Simon’s very first appearance on Oh My Dog, share some questionable dog facts, hear from Dayna Steele's dog saying “I love you”… and look ahead to the next chapter as we prepare to morph into Another Day Ruined. Thank you Simon for three years of wisdom, patience and putting up with Seann’s pronunciation of your name. 🐶❤️ https://dbtherapy.co.uk IG: @dognitive.behaviour Catch Another Day Ruined live at the Edinburgh Fringe before the podcast launches in September!: https://www.thestand.co.uk/fringe/3074/another-day-ruined-with-jack-dee-seann-walsh-and-sara-morgan Go to Petgo.live
After more than three wonderful years, we've got some exciting news... In this episode we announce the next chapter for the podcast. There are still two more episodes of Oh My Dog (three including this one) to come, but after that we'll be taking a short break before returning in September as Another Day Ruined. We're opening the conversation up to everything else that ruins our day too. It'll still be the three of us, the same humour, the same stories and the same community - just with a much bigger scope.

And we meet his beloved lurcher Bowie. Plus, Jack shares his frustration at dog poo bags abandoned on the beach, Seann survives the heatwave with Mildred, Sara's viral cooling hack returns, as the team discuss keeping dogs comfortable in the soaring temperatures. If you're heading to the Fringe this summer, make sure Darryl's shows are on your list! https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/darryl-j-carrington-out-of-the-box https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/darryl-j-carrington-tennish Go to Petgo.live
From teaching her rescue dogs to say "I love you" to finding laughter through one of life's hardest journeys, this week's guest is broadcaster, author and Edinburgh Fringe performer Dayna Steele. Dayna joins Jack, Seann and Sara to talk about the incredible dogs who've shaped her life, why she's happy to be the world's favourite dog babysitter, and how her beloved Labrador Lulu became the benchmark for every dog that followed. She also opens up about caring for her mum through Alzheimer's, and explains why humour helped her - and so many others - cope with heartbreak. It's funny, moving and full of unforgettable dog stories. Plus, Seann nearly misses another gig, Mildred is missing the family while they're away, and the team debate whether cycling with a dog on a lead is ever a good idea.
