Cockney & Son
Cockney & Son: Two Generations, One London is what happens when I sit down with my straight-talking, old-school Londoner dad to try and make sense of the world we’re living in today.
From parenting and politics to prices and pronouns, nothing’s off-limits — and trust me, nothing gets sugar-coated. We see life through two very different lenses, but it’s all grounded in laughs, honest opinions, and the kind of unfiltered banter only a father and son can get away with.
Whether you remember phone boxes or need subtitles when he starts chatting, this one’s for you.

Episode 7: Things that give us the Ick! Traffic Beef & Good luck to all the parents
Episode 7 of Cockney & Son, it’s lucky number seven — but not for the things that give us the ick! From men in flip-flops on the tube, to funeral selfies (yes, really), we’re diving headfirst into the modern cringes that wind us right up. Dad even takes on baby talk to pets and people filming entire concerts — and let’s just say, he’s not holding back.
Then in Adam & Eve It, it’s full-on road rage (verbally, at least) as Dad rants about traffic, bike lanes, and why London feels more jammed up than ever.
And in Say It Like Steve, the summer holidays are here — and one poor listener wants to know: how do you entertain two kids under ten without losing your mind or your wallet? Spoiler: Dad’s answer involves a lot of “good luck.”
Finally, we wrap up with your Cockney Slang Word of the Week, a shoutout to all the parents just trying to survive the six-week break, and a bit of a giggle to lift the mood.
