Show Notes
A brand new intro nearly turns Terry into Dracula and David into Kevin McAllister, and honestly… it might be the most chaotic start we’ve had yet.
It’s David’s 40th birthday week, so we get into turning 40, not being so hard on yourself, and a few very random 1986 “fun” facts (some of them absolutely not fun). Plus: first proper mummy-and-daddy trip since Myles was born, and the plan to get drunk for three days straight.
Also on the menu: Coachella from afar, why Gen Z “don’t dance”, David getting heckled at a spa, Euphoria being “too much”, Cameron Diaz vs Sydney Sweeney, and a listener dilemma about a long-distance boyfriend acting shady.
More from Ten Down
It’s suddenly freezing, the hot water bottles are out, and Terrie and David are back at it — starting with Jake the dog basically running the whole house schedule like he pays rent.
Terrie’s running on about 20% with a brewing chest infection and the fear, while David is somehow 100% and looking for answers… starting with a full interrogation of Terrie’s “quick” Monday night out.
Terrie brings Sydney into town for a YSL beauty event… and ends up rattled by how unsafe Dublin City feels after seeing drug use in broad daylight, sparking a proper chat about safety, addiction, and why supervised injection centres might actually help.
Terrie’s back with the girlies’ tan, a brand‑new iPhone, and absolutely zero access to her emails — while David tries to survive the chaos (and the dressing gown pile-up) in peace.
David’s “lucky to be here” after his second venesection… and Terrie is absolutely not letting him away with claiming he didn’t faint. From sore needles and oxygen tubes to the ongoing “vaso vagal” (or “vaso bagel”) debate, it’s chaos from the first minute.
