đïž Guys⊠WE ARE BACK! Did you miss us?? After a hectic summer, The Arthur and Donal Podcast is finally back and better than ever! From their brand-new studio, Arthur and Donal are diving straight into the chaos, the laughter, and yes⊠even a few screams. This week, Donal admits that life as a criminal just isnât for him (turns out promoting your own brand is hard enough). He also crowns himself an expert in summer burnout as the lads unpack their whirlwind adventures. Donal filmed a TV show and travelled to visit family and friend, while Arthur had quite the boujie getaway. They both agree that wrangling kids on âholidaysâ that didnât always feel like holidays, but the memories make it all worth it. Arthur, meanwhile, is feeling smug. He knew Donalâs Gemini spirit needed a fresh side quest, and this time itâs not pottery⊠itâs painting the bathroom! Folks, we might need to start a poll on what we think Donalâs new obsession will be. With school starting up again, Donal grills Arthur on what heâs packing for his daughter Blakeâs lunches. Bento-box perfection? Or just survival mode? Parents everywhere know the stress of back-to-school and the lads can feel your pain. And of course, they canât resist diving into some good news stories (the first of which was from our very own Arthur Gourounlian) before the Confession Box makes its big return (donât be shy⊠give us your JUICIEST confessions đ) đ Tune in for the laughter, the chaos, the side quests, and all the feel-good moments youâve been waiting for.

Weâre almost back, folks⊠hang in there! While Letâs Do This! is gearing up for its grand return (very soon, we promise), Donal and Arthur are here with a classic chaotic catch-up to tide you over. This week, Donalâs pottery obsession hits new heights, he's practically ready to ditch content creation for a quiet life behind a wheel (pottery wheel, that is). Is it a midlife crisis, or just the soothing call of ceramics? You decide. Meanwhile, Arthur stumbles across a viral video that sends the lads spiraling into a full-blown aviation chat, from passenger etiquette to the mysterious allure of the mile high club (yep, we went there). Expect turbulence. Also, in a tragic twist, Donal shares the heartbreaking fate of his beloved chickens. Spoiler: itâs not a happy farmyard tale. So settle in! It's unhinged, it's unfiltered, and itâs everything you love about this duo, just slightly off the rails. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Folks, the wait is almost over for the next full episode â but in the meantime, weâve got another hilarious Best Bits episode to keep you going! This week, Arthur and Donal try their hand at one of their lifelong dreams: hosting the Eurovision. How did it go? Well... letâs just say there were a few hiccups. From jumbled scripts to Arthur absolutely losing it over Donalâs serious âTV voice,â the ambition is real, but so is the chaos. Eurovision 2027? Never say never. But maybe with an autocue. Then itâs on to the trials, triumphs, and total meltdowns of travelling with kids. Cancelled flights, forgotten milk, and zero relaxation, theyâve been through it all. But as theyâll tell you, even when itâs mayhem, itâs (usually) worth it in the end. And finally, van life gets a look-in. Donalâs been living the dream in Connemara with the family in a campervan, while Arthur canât quite understand why you canât just pull up anywhere and call it a night. Still, heâs got his sights set on something even bigger⊠an RV road trip. Where to? Heâs not sure. But as he says, never say never. Itâs warm, itâs funny, and as always, itâs full of bits you wonât want to miss. Tune in and have a laugh with us! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In this episode, we're diving into some of our favourite moments. From viral chaos to absolute confusion, and a few that were very much lost in translation. First up, the now-legendary tale of âArthur Peterâ... or wait, was it Arthur Pita? Arthur says the name so many times youâll lose count, and so did we. After enough laughter to derail the entire story, weâre still not exactly sure what happened to Arthur Pita, but we promise it was important at the time. Then thereâs Donalâs big moment at the Bloom Festival, where a baking mishap almost went from 0 to viral disaster. Thankfully, no harm done⊠except maybe to Donalâs dignity. Things donât get any less chaotic when a chat about Coachella leads to an identity crisis over Blackpink, or as Donal insists, Black Pig. Arthur tries his best to bring Donal into the cultural now, but Donalâs still out here living in 2007. Somehow, we also manage to consider whether Arthur could replace Joe Duffy on Liveline (spoiler: unlikely), especially after a moment of deep confusion involving a slice pan and something we literally canât elaborate on here. Itâs warm, itâs unfiltered, and itâs exactly the kind of laugh you didnât know you needed. Tune in for joyful nonsense, minor disasters, and two friends who truly shouldnât work together, but somehow absolutely do. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This week on Best Bits, weâre heading straight back into the confession box, and trust us, the stories are as wild as the first time we heard them. Arthurâs giggling, Donalâs mortified, and weâre pretty sure this episode officially crosses the line from family-friendly to âmaybe wear headphones.â đ From secret flings to, ahem, intimate moments in a churchyard (yes, really), our followers did not hold back. One listener even confessed to Arthur in person, and while heâs sworn to protect her identity, weâll just say: itâs gloriously filthy and we love her for it. Arthur admits to his own secret: buying fish on repeat to hide the unfortunate fact that they kept mysteriously dying. Meanwhile, both Arthur and Donal share their hilariously tragic hotel lockout stories, involving everything from towel embarrassment to what can only be described as an honest mistake. Expect tales of forbidden crushes, sneaky relationships, and plenty of âdid they really just say that?â moments. Tune in, laugh out loud, and maybe even confess a little something yourself⊠we wonât tell. đ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Best Bits: Mid Life Crisis, AI Crazy, Craft & Challenges Donal has found his true calling⊠pottery. But thereâs one small problem, Arthur isnât convinced. Cue the giggles as they debate whether Donalâs ârusticâ salt pigs belong in a gallery or a kindergarten craft fair. Meanwhile, Donal has taken on a noble mission: a one-man crusade to open Arthurâs eyes to the true dangers of AI. His strategy? Flooding Arthurâs inbox with the weirdest, wildest AI TikToks he can find. Trust us, youâll want to hear Arthurâs baffled, slightly horrified reactions. As talk turns to the podcastâs return, both are ready to take on new personal challenges... but letâs just say their definitions of âchallengeâ are vastly different. Donalâs thinking about crochet, crafts, and serene ice baths. Arthur? He wants to jump out of a plane. How are they even friends? Weâre not sure either! But weâre very glad they are. The return is near. The chaos is real. Stay tuned for more absurd debates, unexpected inspiration, and whatever else these two dream up next. Hosted on Acast.

Things take a turn when Donal calls out Arthurâs coffee-making skills (or lack thereof âïž), and thereâs drama over a neglected rose bush meant for Donalâs goddaughter.
