  • How to Win Someone Back
    May 27 2026

    This week’s bonus episode sees the boys testing out a viral trend where they have to say the same phrase in their happy, nervous and flirty voices… with some far more convincing than others.


    We also get into one of the most ridiculous dilemmas yet, debate how they’d haunt each other if they came back as ghosts, and compare intrusive thoughts… with nobody being surprised by how differently Sam and Pete’s brains work.


    And finally, one listener asks how to win back a girl after seriously annoying her, which leads to Pete interrogating Sam on what he actually does to make it up to Tally after an argument…

I have loved Sam since Celebs go dating. I didn't even know who Pete was until Sam was on I'm a celebrity and Pete went to visit him in the jungle. I have to say, I was unsure about Pete, couldn't work out if he was Grumpy Dwarf or Snow white. He appeared to love Sam but hate him at the same time. I didn't really get it. This did mean that Pete was not on my list of favourite people and I probably did an eye roll whenever he was mentioned.
None the less, I loved Sam so much, I decided to give Staying Relevant a listen. What a great decision that was. I absolutely love this podcast. You two are the perfect pairing. Pete, I feel like I understand you more now, you are in fact both Grumpy Dwarf and Snow White (without the constant annoying singing and cleaning) and I LOVE it. I love how Pete hates everything and doesn't even care. Is it an act, or is he really like that? I think he really is like that, and has little tolerance for people, stupidity, and the world. (Me too Pete, me too)
Sam and your love for everything makes me so happy every time I listen to the podcast.
This is a great wholesome podcast of two wonderful people just doing life together and sharing their adventures with the rest of us. Please never stop what you are doing, I NEED Pete and Sam in my life!

Is Pete Grumpy Dwarf or Snow White?
