  • SNOG, MARRY, AVOID: Pete reveals his weirdest tattoo?! [Amazon Music Exclusive]
    Jun 25 2026

    This week, Sam and Pete are back playing Snog, Marry, Avoid... and things get weird very quickly.

    First up, it's a fairytale face-off featuring Rapunzel, where Pete has far more thoughts than anyone was expecting.

    Then, Casper the Ghost enters the chat, sparking a surprisingly serious debate about whether you can actually date a ghost.

    And just when you think it can't get any stranger, Pete reveals a very special tattoo he got as a tribute... leaving Sam completely speechless.

  • Who's more liked by the in-laws?
    Jun 24 2026

    The Staying Relevant x Bongos Bingo summer party is officially happening, and there’s also some brand-new merch on the way to make sure the Relevanter family is fully kitted out for summer.


    The boys explain why they’d be absolutely terrible Love Islanders, from surviving villa life without alcohol to Sam's big toenails - oh and his questionable posture.


    Plus, Nicole spots a suspicious grey hair on Pete and asks the all-important question: what’s the last photo on their camera rolls, and is it safe enough to share with the world?


    As always, Question Time brings the chaos with a round of “Who’s Most Likely To?”, including who’s most likely to send a drunk text...

I have loved Sam since Celebs go dating. I didn't even know who Pete was until Sam was on I'm a celebrity and Pete went to visit him in the jungle. I have to say, I was unsure about Pete, couldn't work out if he was Grumpy Dwarf or Snow white. He appeared to love Sam but hate him at the same time. I didn't really get it. This did mean that Pete was not on my list of favourite people and I probably did an eye roll whenever he was mentioned.
None the less, I loved Sam so much, I decided to give Staying Relevant a listen. What a great decision that was. I absolutely love this podcast. You two are the perfect pairing. Pete, I feel like I understand you more now, you are in fact both Grumpy Dwarf and Snow White (without the constant annoying singing and cleaning) and I LOVE it. I love how Pete hates everything and doesn't even care. Is it an act, or is he really like that? I think he really is like that, and has little tolerance for people, stupidity, and the world. (Me too Pete, me too)
Sam and your love for everything makes me so happy every time I listen to the podcast.
This is a great wholesome podcast of two wonderful people just doing life together and sharing their adventures with the rest of us. Please never stop what you are doing, I NEED Pete and Sam in my life!

Is Pete Grumpy Dwarf or Snow White?
