Dunn takes on swimming… and discovers it’s not just “get in and splash about”, oh no, there are rules. Actual lane etiquette. Who knew? Just as she finds her rhythm and perfects the polite overtake… someone jumps in and ruins the whole thing. Will she go back, or is this the end of Dunn vs the pool?

We introduce some old WIDLs, including one word that’s both completely gross… and oddly useful if you ever fancy getting out of hospital early 👀

BMP this week, curly hair. How many products does one head actually need? Bottles everywhere, routines longer than a Netflix series… or do you just leave it and hope for the best?

Food chat turns serious, a pasty under the spotlight. Specifically… the ear. Why do we love it? Why do we hate it? And what actually is it?

And on a slightly more serious note… Only Vans (with wind), please stop feeding the weird. You might think you’re helping… you’re probably part of the problem. Thom has thoughts. Strong ones.

We’re also sharing some great podcasts, Instagram pages we’re loving right now, and taking a moment for Victoria Wood, 10 years on, still missed, still brilliant. ........And so much more.... eyes down, plug us in your ears

Do you share your takeaway, not full-on Smithy level, but Thom admits she’s not sharing her gyozas, while Dunn’s a bit more generous… or does it depend what you’ve ordered?

Be honest now, did you share the kids’ Easter chocolate… or just “help them out” a little too much?

We get into the world of Vinted, what on earth is acceptable packaging, and when does it just become just wrong?!

Plus, what do you do when you’ve only got one loo in the house and your teenager’s in there with their phone like they’ve moved in permanently.

We also play a round of Break A Take and share the little things people have done this week that made us question... life as we get older

And Dr Dunn has discovered a spray to stop that “over 40s” smell… apparently it’s a thing, which is slightly concerning for both of us. No burping this episode - but there is mention of a Chode and a d'wang! Think girth

We're back in shag manor and there is no podcast barker - all is quiet... well, there is a burp or two What do you like about a rummage? It’s an important question…

We do try to include a “serious” segment in our episodes — it just doesn’t always stay serious for very long. We’re not here to make life miserable; we’re here to spark a bit of thought, without taking ourselves too seriously.

We might not have a big platform, but we’re here to make you laugh, cringe, think, and most importantly, relate. So wherever you are, just keep listening.

In this episode: 👉 Thom asks the all-important question… what’s the difference between dirty and kinky? (Brace yourself.) 👉 Dunn brings some interesting facts to the table 👉 And Thom introduces a new gadget that could change your chin forever

Oh… and there’s an unexpected appearance from a bottle of Pepsi Max and a touch of acid reflux for good measure. and sohhhhh much more Strap in lads and ladies

We’re back! with our second attempt with our new equipment, so all being well our voices should be a little more crisp and clear… aside from the occasional interruption from the Podcast Barker 🐶.

We’re hoping to be recording again soon from the legendary Shag Manor, but for now this episode has a bit of everything.

Thom stumbled across a very interesting purchase while searching for tights, while Dunn brings along some facts, and you can understand what she means this time!

We chat about all the things we probably shouldn’t, including why women might need something called a “Snail Nap”… apparently they can sleep for three years. Sounds appealing.

We also discover that whales are a bit gross, small children aren’t much better, and frankly… teachers deserve medals.

Our Dick of the Week goes to a certain man in politics who suggested changing International Women’s Day, and Thom has a few choice words about why that definitely isn’t happening.

Halfway through recording, Thom suddenly realises we haven’t actually recorded the video for most of the podcast… brilliant start. We also wander into a chat about Ozempic and the unexpected benefits the US is seeing.

Meanwhile, we’ve come up with an anagram for FACEBOOK and Thom launches in, whilst Dunn suggests Plant Bingo (and no, it’s not the kind where you win a palm tree at Mecca), She’s also starting to lose herself in solitaire where reading could be more beneficial

So tuck in, grab a beer, and give it a listen, or listen when you’re on a walk, driving, or wandering around the supermarket…We dare you.

We’re back, and somehow what started as absolutely nothing turned into a full blown game. Proof, if it were ever needed, that mentally we’re still somewhere around Year 9.

This week we’re asking:

What’s one thing you didn’t try until you were older? Curry • What was your “luxury” item growing up, hairdryer or electric knife? • The word “just”, why does it grate when someone “just” drops it into a sentence? And is “we” simply an upside down “me” • Car phrases or calf raises, listen carefully when Dunn speaks, what did you hear? Thom goes Dr Dunn and finds out what Sea Cucumbers have! • Biscuit of the month. It’s about to be all Tuc n Nice.

Thank you for the love on our Instagram lately, the views have jumped and we see you. Keep following us on socials @ReinitinwithThomandDunn or email us at Thomanddunn@outlook.com with your answers, opinions or general outrage, no… not at us!

As always, mildly educational, slightly unhinged, and absolutely unnecessary. Just how we like it.

*we're having a few issues with our new tech, bear with us, or is that bare with us

How old are we, really? One minute we’re off shopping for new Podcast equipment, the next we’ve lost a chunk of our lives in the M&S cheese section. Time theft? Absolutely. Regrets? None.

We tackle the age-old debate of kebab before you drink, and yes, we’ve decided it’s actually the superior option. There are many reasons for this. Kebabee breath being just one, which leads us neatly into a story of its own.

Thom is increasingly concerned that dry robes are replacing Crocs. Especially when worn by people who have never seen the business end of a lake. Ever. It’s giving strong karate family popping into Asda after class energy.

We dive into a women’s magazine, fuelled by questionable brainwaves from a bloke! Plus ideas from a Mary who will never receive an Amazon parcel. Ever. We workshop how she could improve her letterbox with a bit of fabric and optimism. We also apologise in advance for the podcast barker moment where Thom shouted at an Amazon driver to “MOVE ON”. She didn’t. But she absolutely wanted to.

We touch on the media's obsession with the Beckhams and why being women in our 50s might have a slightly different take than the rest of the internet.

There’s also a weekly check-in: What have you done to be a dickhead this week? And if you counted every FFS or “feck off”, where would you be by Sunday night?

We discuss what Dunn would put on her CV as a strength. Why you should never trust a wet fart, and how it’s not a personal failure, it’s biology.

Sprinkled throughout are some Dr Dunn and Dr Thom facts, because, obviously.

Enjoy. Head on over. Dive in.

We’re in Staithes for our first recording of 2026, joined by Sarah and baby Lydia (aka Linda), and honestly… it goes exactly how you’d expect.

We kick off with a WIDL, some absolute surprises in there, and a few you’ll definitely start using yourself.

Then we hit Clump of Mash (why does no one understand this?) and immediately descend into laughter, including a strong detour into dingleberries, because of course we do.

What BMP comes up, and let’s just say… one of the opinions might be a touch harsh!

Dr Dunn has clearly been “researching” again and drops the bombshell that platypuses create custard. Yes, really. Followed by some oozing facts you may wish you’d never heard.

Sarah takes us down a road involving nipples, pulling things you shouldn’t, and accidentally inventing a dog rescue contraption. It spirals. Naturally. Somewhere in there, Super Superworm gets a new mate.

We ask the question: What would you do if you were invisible? The answers… worrying. Especially Dunn’s.

We’ve also invented a new Cornish pasty for Greggs. Working title: The Pastry Flap. We await the call.

Amongst the absolute nonsense, we do manage to touch on some serious stuff too, but mostly it’s laughter, friendship, and pure off-the-rails energy.

You can absolutely tell why we’re all friends.

BONUS: Sounds We Don’t Like (Horror Edition) Because some noises should be illegal:

* The Drop of a poo

* Air raid siren

* Thrutching

* Something being sick * Baulking noise * Burping

Enjoy the ride… and maybe, best to, listen with headphones 😘

We’re officially 2 years old, and it’s nearly Christmas — and as we all know, Thom is not a fan. She breaks down her festive loves (there are a few) and her loathes… including the annual tradition of her sitting on a pouffe while the rest of the family lounges on her comfy sofa. Pure joy.

Dr Dunn has taken a deep dive into adult soft-play centres and whatever on earth new mums are banging that drum ON!

We also ask the big questions, like: do YOU know what a doodlesack is? And in true Rein It In fashion, we go from silliness to serious as we talk about vaginismus — not remotely Christmassy, but important, and we point you to someone far more qualified than us, because we are absolutely not your medical team.

We also cover Purdy & Figg, bloody influencers, and our Blasts from the Past. Spangles, anyone?

It’s our final episode of 2025, so dig in, ears open, and get ready for a laugh or two… or three… or four.
