I feel like their podcast has gone from funny and lighthearted and something they seemingly enjoyed to a chore.

It seems like a chore for them to make and it's becoming a chore for me to listen to.

The main motivation seems to have shifted from a fun project that they could also make money from to solely a money-making pursuit.

Now, the podcast starts with a 4-5 minute ad and has another 4-5 minute ad in the middle.

Pete complains and is a bore while Sam really plays up to the 'I don't know anything' narrative and constantly comes out with painfully unfunny and unnecessary euphemisms that make him sound like a 5 year old boy obsessed with fart jokes.

Sam promised he'd attend the Monday team meeting four times and four times he 'forgot' and missed it. He just seems so unprofessional.

I get the impression that Pete at least works hard and manages the team, the budget etc. Sam just swans in and acts like an idiot.

The podcast definitely needs a shake up and Pete needs to get a grip.
I think for me, the problem is Pete has branched out solo and his career is taking off for all the right reasons.
His Manmade pod was excellent, and of course his dog show is just 😍😍😍 I imagine he is working non stop, and SR productions might just be the one to suffer. But I imagine stepping back from Sam and the pod will be very difficult as it would not survive without him 🤷‍♀️

To be fair to Pete although he seems to have had a huge increase in work projects and advertising deals he does seem to put a lot of effort into the pod.Sam couldn’t give a tit.I think they’ve got a bit big for their boots now so the pod doesn’t seem as organic or real as it used too.I stopped listening,the ads and the repetitive themes were tit.You can tell Pete is clearly fed up of Sam and I think once he’s made enough money out off it he’ll be off.Maybe Pete will disappear off grid away from the showbiz world like he’s always said he wanted.

I agree he used to be such a laugh…he’s now just angry,miserable,nasty to Sam constantly I stopped listening a while ago.Hes been like that from Maura dumped him,can she take him back might cheer him up a bit.
He was like a different person when they were together. I initially thought it was because his career had taken a positive turn but he’s continued to do well and is miserable!
I assume things have still been happening with them because he wouldn’t still be pining nearly a year on if they weren’t. I imagine he says all the right things to her and then she looks at his instagram and realises he’ll never change!
I imagine she’ll go over to America next year and I think he knows that. He’s only got himself to blame! I think they made a lovely couple but he’s a mess! She’s better off on her own’

I think their friendship is also hard to believe now. I mean, it seems they genuinely don’t spend time together as friends outside the pod and they seem worlds away in their lives and ideas. I think the pressure is on now they’re paying so many wages (I mean a team of 8 for one podcast?) but I do think their podcast has a time limit on it.

Their show was diabolical at the 02, and I went! From inviting cancelled Pete Andre, to having James Buckleys scowling missus to making jokes about Louis Tomlinson even though he dated Zara months after they broke up. It all seems so unauthentic, unplanned and just a quick buck job.

I actually think this page should be moved to normal because there isn’t really much to rave about Pete anymore :(

He fumbled the wrong girl as Maura is no mug he definitely met his match there.I do think they were definitely back and forth after the Danny kiss but he’s constantly perving on young glamour type girls on Instagram,so Maura did the right thing,although I did think they were the perfect match.As a Jowita supporter I’m just glad she didn’t get involved romantically the man is a walking 🚩.

He reminds me of Wayne Lineker, it’s embarrassing! He’s ageing like a pear! He cheated on Maura who is gorgeous and he obviously adored, no women in their right mind could trust him!
I’ve been really routing for him to get himself together but his instagram usage is terrible!

Long time lurker here. 🙋🏼‍♀️ But just wanted to say if you did like Pete’s solo manmade podcast he did another solo podcast around lockdown time called ‘Just a little wick’ and I honestly think it’s one of the best things he’s ever done. It was about tattoos and he would speak to a different guest each week about why they have the tattoos they have etc. I found it randomly when the Staying Relevant pod first launched and I really wish he had kept it going because it was so different and much deeper than you would expect. If you are a fan it’s definitely worth a listen x

God used to adore Pete but my god on the podcast all he does is complain and drone about oh duck this, duck everyone, I’m miserable. It was endearing to start with but now it’s so annoying.
research suggests men get grumpy from the man-o-pause from 27 - 30 ish, and it gradually gets worse

maura doesn't suffer any fools does she. jmo, but she's actually a pretty great role model (I blame him not her for that tv awards kiss)

I'm so petty but why are neither Pete nor Sam wearing their seatbelts in the black cab? Hanging out the windows etc? Thought it was only taxi drivers that were exempt?

Why do you blame him for the awards kiss ?

not pete, (sorry i wasn't being clear) i meant the married guy
I agree. She was single, just split up from Pete and had to sit a table away from him after he cheated! Danny was supposed to be her friend and he kissed her(despite being married), then let her to take the majority of the fallout! Who needs enemies with friends like him!

There’s no way you can blame Danny alone they were both at fault.

He was a married family man who clearly has no self control. She knew he was a married family man and chose to ignore that for her own ends 🤷‍♀️ both at fault, both showing that they have no morals. But, Maura got far more tit thrown at her, when in fact HE was the one married 😡 There was literally no excuse for either of them to behave like that, especially kinda knowing it would probably hit the headlines,

Exactly both as bad as each other.

The only person to say he cheated was her though. Like he probably did I wouldn’t be surprised but he had said he was honest on the podcast that he was moving when he was accused of cheating. I wouldn’t put it past him but also wouldn’t trust her saying that. Makes sense he didn’t if that’s why he’s been a grump since

Hasn’t Pete always been the angry poor me type? I don’t see any change with how he is with Sam because from what I can remember this was their dynamic

Not that I watched TOWIE at the time, but looking at YouTube clips, he’s always been grumpy and argumentative 🤷‍♀️ also his definition of not cheating will be very different to most women’s definition I would think 🤷‍♀️ liking his fake instababes, and slipping into their DM’s is cheating imo . He might not think so 🤷‍♀️Did the stories not mention messsges from other women, in regard to Maura’s cheating claims. If he was doing all the instababe likes and messaging them then Maura was right to dump him 🤷‍♀️
