Summary
Laura and Carmen are fully in their Erling Haaland era! From England’s latest World Cup win against Norway and Thomas Tuchel’s terrifyingly intense energy, to Jude Bellingham being an actual angel, Victoria Beckham in full WAG mode, and why Haaland and Bellingham’s chemistry is starting to feel less like tournament coverage and more like a romcom. They also get stuck into the final episodes of Katie Price: Nothing To Hide , from the heartbreak, the chaos and the terrible men, to the moments that left them hooked, conflicted and wondering how Katie still keeps landing on her feet. Plus, Millie Bobby Brown’s wildly specific past-life theory leads Laura and Carmen into a tangent about birthmarks, witches, Vikings and whether they’ve all been here before. As if that wasn’t enough, Laura relives her trip to Mallorca - featuring hotel room carnage next door, an all-inclusive upgrade, a drunken leap off a dock, a bashed-up leg, a cancelled flight and sleeping through severe turbulence. Back in the UK, Carmen has been living her best heatwave life in a £50 sloosh, while squirrels, foxes and various bits of garden wildlife threaten to take over completely. From semi-final dreams to sloosh-based survival, this one really has it all… Follow Shouldn’t Laugh But on all social platforms: @shouldntlaughpod Laura - @thatlaurasmyth Carmen - @carmenshouldntlaugh Shouldn’t Laugh But… is a Global Production Listen every Tuesday & Friday or watch us on Global Player, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts
