The CJ & Ted Show (Not)LIVE! - Friday 29 May 2026
May 2901:03:41Tap to summarizeThis week on The CJ & Ted Show… it’s technically live… but not actually live.In a special “live not live” episode, CJ and Ted battle through another UK heatwave while debating whether British houses are secretly designed to function as giant brick ovens. From air conditioning envy and sweaty weather complaints to Geoguessr disasters, steakhouse strategies, and the true purpose of barbecue salads, this episode goes completely off the rails in the best possible way.There’s also:British people versus hot weather ☀️The great air conditioning debateGeoguessr confusion across Europe and beyond 🌍Why UK homes trap heat like furnacesSteak obsession and all-you-can-eat chaos 🥩Why nobody actually wants the salad at a barbecueComplaining about weather like proper Brits.As always, there’s no structure, no preparation, and absolutely no reason any conversation should naturally flow from heatwaves to halloumi… but somehow it does.#CJTedShow #FridayNightLive #ComedyPodcast #BritishPodcast #Geoguessr #UKHeatwave #BritishHumour #LiveStream #Podcast #RandomChat #UKWeather #Steak #Barbecue #ComedyShow #YouTubePodcast

The CJ & Ted Show LIVE! - Friday 13 March 2026
May 1701:57:05Tap to summarizeIn this episode of The CJ & Ted Show, Ted and CJ dive straight into puzzle chaos, starting with a word association puzzle they created themselves and shared on Reddit. The pair revisit the puzzle, check out the stats, and realise they may have accidentally become professional game designers.From there, the show moves through a mix of online puzzles and word games, including Connections-style challenges, word searches, and a surprisingly tricky word guessing game that introduces Ted to the culinary term “panko.”Along the way the conversation goes off on classic CJ & Ted tangents — from old Milky Way adverts and storage struggles on phones to the strange logic of the Bluey universe and whether it might secretly be set in a post-apocalyptic world run by dogs.The episode also features Cat of the Week, a Super Troopers “meow” moment, and the highlight of the night: a GeoGuessr session that sees the duo impressively pinpoint their location within five metres in South Africa before attempting to navigate a frozen mountain pass high in the Himalayas.Expect puzzles, geography detective work, random internet discoveries and the usual Friday night chaos.#CJandTedShow #FridayNightLive #WordPuzzle #ConnectionsGame #RedditPuzzle #BrainTeaser #GeoGuessr #OnlineGames #PuzzleChallenge #WordGames #CatOfTheWeek #PodcastLive #YouTubePodcast #TriviaNight #InternetFinds #ComedyPodcast #LiveStreamShow

The CJ & Ted Show LIVE! - Friday 6 March 2026
May 1702:23:51Tap to summarizeIn this Friday Night LIVE episode of The CJ & Ted Show, Ted and CJ kick things off with a relaxed start before diving into some strange corners of the internet.First up, they react to a selection of bizarre “life hack” style videos, questioning whether these supposed tricks are actually useful… or just completely ridiculous. From cooking hacks to questionable DIY ideas, nothing escapes their scrutiny.A simple discussion about folding paper quickly turns into a surprising maths rabbit hole, leading to the famous example of exponential growth — where folding paper enough times could theoretically reach two-thirds of the distance to the Sun.The conversation then moves into sustainability myths, paper straws, plastic lids and the strange logic behind some modern “eco-friendly” designs.Later in the show, Ted introduces Cat of the Week, featuring a ginger cat happily sitting inside a cardboard box — proving once again that cats don’t need expensive toys.CJ and Ted also jump into a round of GeoGuessr, travelling virtually across the world and trying to identify locations using clues from landscapes, languages and road signs — eventually narrowing things down to places like Norway and Portugal.Towards the end of the episode, they tackle a word association puzzle where the challenge is to find four hidden groups of related words.⚠️ Spoiler warning:If you want to try the puzzle yourself before hearing how we approached it, have a go here first:https://www.reddit.com/r/DailyMix/comments/1rmtmr8/think_you_can_find_4_hidden_groups_of_4_related/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_buttonOnce you’ve tried solving it, come back and watch the episode to see how CJ and Ted tackled it.As always, it’s another relaxed Friday night full of strange internet discoveries, geography guessing, puzzles and unexpected conversations.#CJandTedShow #FridayNightLive #LiveStream #GeoGuessr #InternetReactions #LifeHacks #PodcastLive #CatOfTheWeek #WordPuzzle #PuzzleGame #YouTubeLive #ComedyPodcast #InteractiveShow #CasualChat

From chili techniques and pasta tweaks to the eternal importance of bacon at breakfast, the conversation is packed with relatable kitchen chaos, strong opinions and the kind of food chat that somehow turns competitive.But that’s only half the story.The lads then jump into GeoGuessr, putting their geography skills (and instincts) to the test. Armed with nothing but visual clues, road signs and questionable confidence, they travel virtually from Japan to California and even Peru — navigating landscapes, decoding languages, spotting cultural hints and debating infrastructure like seasoned explorers.It’s part cooking chat, part geography lesson, part chaotic guessing game — and entirely Ted and CJ.#CJandTedShow #TedAndCJ #GeoGuessr #CookingChat #BreakfastTalk #VirtualTravel #LocationGuessing #PodcastHumour #MapExploration #WeekendVibes

The CJ & Ted Show LIVE! - Friday 13 February 2026
May 1702:02:01Tap to summarizeIn this episode of The CJ & Ted Show, Ted kicks things off solo, diving into a series of Reddit’s classic “Am I the Asshole?” scenarios — unpacking relationship drama, personal boundaries, and the art (or lack) of communication.Halfway through, CJ makes a slightly surprised entrance… arriving late and going straight into the show live, with barely a moment to catch his breath. The result? Proper live-stream energy, quick reactions, and a bit of classic CJ confusion as he figures out what’s going on in real time.From awkward misunderstandings to deeper reflections on work-life balance and the growing role of AI in the workplace, the conversation moves between thoughtful insight and light-hearted chaos. As always, it wraps up with humour — because sometimes that’s the only sensible response to modern life.#CJandTedShow #AITA #RedditStories #LiveStream #PodcastHumour #RelationshipTalk #WorkLifeBalance #AIinWorkplace #CommunicationMatters
