Shut Up I’m Talking

What do you get when naivety meets extraordinary opportunity? This podcast. An authentic and hilarious insight into the weird, wonderful and endlessly curious brains of two firmly Gen Z YouTubers who have grown up in the intense spotlight of the internet. Meet Tom Simons, aka TommyInnit, and Jack Manifold every week as they open up their diaries and try to make sense of the internet-famous-meets-normal-real-life lives they are living.

This week on Shut Up I’m Talking, TommyInnit and Jack Manifold are back with stories from the past week of their lives.

Tom finds out what happens when you go to Ikea and info-dump on a fan after eating a full English breakfast, followed by a trip on a rollercoaster, and Jack ‘may or may not’ have had an ‘incident’ in a van in Brighton’s famous Laines

Tom reveals his new hobby, ‘accidental theft’, and Jack describes getting dragged into a traumatising game of football that plays havoc with his ADHD and highlights his extreme lack of coordination. 

Also:

● Jack has primary school flashbacks - eccentric teachers, butterfingers and accidentally stripping naked for PE at age 3

● Tom’s Double feature cinema trip: Interstellar and Jaws back-to-back at IMAX, bad burgers, crying at Sam Fender, and unfeasible amounts of free Gorillaz merch.

● Big tangents on Stevie Wonder, Beethoven, adult-only parks and paying too much tax.

● Worms, rants, names rated, and a sneak peek at the long-lost pilot episodes coming this Birthtember.

48: Why TommyInnit is evicting AverageHarry...

Jack Manifold tells TommyInnit how he literally ate every YouTuber snack with George Memeulous, just moments before coming to record, and it nearly broke him. MrBeast Feastables, Phase Rug’s rancid candy, Ryan Trahan’s gummies, Karl Gummies, David Dobrik crisps, Sidemen jerky, they all get a mention. Watch Jack trying to cope with a sleep-deprived Tom Simons, while he tries to unstick his own jaws, deal with the sugar crash and regain his sense of taste.

47: Jack hates YouTuber Products

Jack Manifold and Tom Simons are back and this week, it gets weird. From zombie fungus theories to cringey nightclub stories, the boys address the questions that are on everyone’s lips, like could climate change lead to human-extinction mushrooms? Are there volcanoes under the sea? And the big one - is deodorant for girls secretly weaker?

TOPICS THIS WEEK:

● TommyInnit’s £1.50 deodorant disaster at a Sabrina Carpenter concert

● Napoleon's body odour kink

● Jack Manifold’s chaotic night at the club involving social anxiety and mega awkward eye contact

● Are there hidden volcanoes under the ocean? Yes, and the tectonic plates are arguing

● Could The Last of Us fungus actually evolve into a human mind-control plague?

● Climate change talk: why “global warming” is the wrong name for it and could there be an extinction event soon?

● Jack’s repaired eyeball, optician drama & stage blindness stories

● Nintendo Switch 2 update + Mario Kart vs PS5 debate

● Are we all colour blind? 

● Bioluminescent humans and UV-seeing animals

● Bee Movie science, 3D-printed food, and why we all might be eating crickets soon

● Weirdest audience interactions, parasocial moments, and being sad and alone in a bar

Plus: Quackity-teasing, Sabrina Carpenter at Hyde Park, Claro’s Zoom-call performance energy, praise for Olivia Dean, BlueSky vs Threads chat, and philosophical questions like “Would you survive the apocalypse if the bees died?”

 BONUS CHAOS:

● Jack’s existential skincare crisis 

● Tom builds a rock kingdom on the beach and becomes a micro-managing project lead 

● New social media with new rules?

● Could we actually dig to China?

● Worm funeral pending. RIP.

46: Is TommyInnit Stupid?

This week, TommyInnit and Jack Manifold are joined by the queen of true crime Eleanor Neale, host and creator of the hugely successful Outlore podcast.

Tom Simons takes the reins this episode to find out more about Jack Manifold’s girlfriend and what it’s actually like to be part of a YouTuber couple.

 

Eleanor talks about her alcoholic zoo party and worst moment of the week, Jack deals with ongoing eye trauma, and we learn way too much about everyone’s digestive issues.

We talk true crime burnout, the emotional toll of reporting brutal cases, and why Eleanor needed a break after reporting on one devastating Christmas Eve murder. She opens up about why women are drawn to true crime, what drives her storytelling, and how she balances advocacy with emotional well-being.

Also discussed:

- How Jack and Ellie met and what their home life is like

- What Jack and olives have in common

- What it’s really like to have a true crime podcast

- How Eleanor finds the balance between the gore and the goof

- ADHD, mess, and living together

- Long distance relationship advice

- Creepy houses and a kleptomaniac fox

- Grumpy grandads, politics, and Tom’s falling apart shoes

Plus:

- Who knows Jack best?

- Does Ellie get recognised in public?

- Who gets recognised where?

- What’s Ellie’s biggest red flag about Jack? (And what’s his?)

- The weird crossover of Dream SMP fans, emo girls, and Switch 2 rants

Join us for unfiltered laughs, weird fan encounters, serious chats about trauma and online fame. Plus, the comfort of a true love story and a little bit of worm twerking.
