We (the Viva La Dirt League boys) have decided to jump on the podcast bandwagon because, well, we were told we should. Join us - Rowan, Alan and Adam - for “We Were Told We Should Do a Podcast” as we blend our nerdy obsessions with infectious banter. We speak to the realms of pop culture and gaming, with a sprinkle of personal revelations and whatever random topics enter our brains. Expect laughs, deep chats and a reminder that it's perfectly cool to embrace your inner geek.

What even is happiness? | E1

If you've followed our YouTube channel for a while, you probably remember Buffed Up Nerds - a health and fitness series we did many moons ago. Spoiler alert, we haven't kept our bodies in that shape. We go behind the curtain and chat about why and how we did it, what challenges we faced and what our lifestyles look like nowadays. And no, it hasn't inspired us to do a second season.
