Episode #5 – Milk Me!
Show Notes:
Welcome to Episode #5 of Happy Distraction. The feel-good, guilt-free, good kind of distraction. In today’s show, your hosts, Dylan and Kirsty, chat about a baby born at a Metallica concert with 8.2 million people in attendance. Dylan shares a cringey story about a time when a person wanted her work colleagues to ‘milk her’ instead of simply asking to borrow some milk. We also discuss a man who changed his name to something hilarious and full of profanity, just get his own back on a bank that charged him a ridiculous amount of money for going into a small overdraft, and much more!

Top quotes from the show:
“And Mr Bastards has asked them to pay the 69p balance back by cheque” – Dylan.
“Meeeeooooooowwwwww”. – Kirsty.
“It’s about someone who gets pissed when it rains, but only when it rains” – Kirsty.
Hashtag Crashtag:
In #HashtagCrashtag, we scour the internet for the funniest hashtags of all time, and this time its #MyBoyfriendNotAllowedTo. This one was chosen by Kirsty (again), and it’s massively cringe and a little bit disgusting, not gonna lie.
Kirsty Vs. Dylan:
And… are you ready for Kirsty Vs. Dylan? The epic weekly trivia battle pitting host v host, and this week we battle it out in a game called ‘Can I have a P please, Bob’. The game where we have three letters to use to pick a relevant answer for a given category, in 10 seconds or less. This one is hilarious, don’t miss it!
Uninformed:
Uninformed is the brand new segment where we have to guess what a Movie, TV Show, book etc. is about based on the title and the front cover. We watch/read it, and then report back in the next episode to see if we got it right! This week Kirsty has to tell us what the Netflix TV Show ‘The woman in the house across the street from the girl in the window’ is about, and Dylan tells us what he thinks the Netflix Movie ‘Windfall’ is about. Of course, absolute ridiculousness ensues, so listen to this segment if you want a laugh.
Controversial Corner:
In another new segment, we pose a question each week to YOU the audience. In the first of the series, we’re asking ‘Is the customer always right?’ If you want to get involved, share your answer with us on our social media channels (they are all @distracthappy) or send us a message using the contact form on our website at https://www.happydistraction.co.uk/contact
So take a seat, get comfy and get distracted!
