Best Chaps Eye Podcasts (2026)

Season Fourteen – Best of Drew & Sam Well another season of Drewling Samantics has reached its climax, and rather good timing too as both boys are now fully immersed in their respective seasonal contracts (it’s almost like they planned the dates - maybe they’re better at this than they give themselves credit for?!) It’s been a fantastic fifteen wee…

We’re Gonna Need Another Quote It’s probably not that tricky to predict this week’s subject matter if you take a look at the episode title! Yes, famous film quotes are the topic of discussion in this latest Drewling Samantics show, and if you’re listening to or watching this podcast it’s fair to say you’re probably a keen film fan.

All in the Mind Another week means another guest, but any suggestion that that brings an element of repetition is nonsense, as today’s episode is far from boring or run of the mill! You see today the Drewling Samantics boys welcome a guest with a difference - he’s very much a part of the industry, but has a unique combination of skills that you cou…

Self Improv-ment Despite careful pre-planning and in-depth discussion, Drew and Sam readily admit that it may at times look as if they are making things up on the spot. In fact the content they bring us is frequently sporadic and “off-the-cuff”, but actually it’s fair to say that that’s part of the joy of Drewling Samantics. Yes, regardless of how …

Ten-Four Good Buddies Fourteen isn’t normally considered to be a particularly significant number. It’s not the first teenage year, it’s more than a Baker’s Dozen, it isn’t associated with bad luck or other superstitions, and from a mathematical point of view it doesn’t really have many special numerical characteristics. But to Drew and Sam, everyon…

Thankfully, Drewling Samantics will continue to be the very best it can be. In actual fact, “Off the Rails” refers, rather appropriately, to this week’s fabul…

A necessary evil some might say, but actors and performers spend a great deal of time trying to get, prepare for, and (with any luck!) nail them! Castings, test-…
