The Two Mr Ps Christmas Special Part 1

Part 1 of the Christmas Special kicks off exactly how most school staff feel by mid-December: exhausted, slightly ill, and crawling towards the finish line like it’s Sports Day in a suit. Adam’s running on fumes, Lee’s been properly hit by the lurgy, there’s a heartfelt bit about how crucial the Christmas break is, even if you’re not a “massive Christmas person”. If you’re sat there thinking you could happily work through it, the lads reckon that’s less festive spirit and more a genuine warning sign. They give another big thank you for the tour love, with the slightly mind blowing update that over 15,000 tickets have sold, plus a reminder that the tour is extending into October 2026 and February 2027. They also have a laugh at the annual “Christmas is being cancelled” crowd, sparked by Tesco calling Christmas trees “evergreen trees”, as if capitalism is suddenly going to stop selling Christmas. The second half is a brilliant thread: “What’s a Christmas tradition your family does that you don’t think anyone else does?” There’s a genuinely lovely bit of reflection too on “presence over presents” and the pressure parents put on themselves to make Christmas perfect, plus how traditions and time together matter more than whatever plastic trend the kids wanted that year. Part 1 ends with the lads deciding to split the Christmas Special into two episodes, because there’s too much festive chaos for one. Part 2 is coming later in the break with even more stories. ​📬 Want your story featured on the pod?
