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 22: British Sayings, Jungle Line Up & Dad Jokes Galore Episode
In this week’s episode, things have been a bit heavy behind the scenes, but we’re showing up the only way we know how — with honesty, a good natter, and plenty of laughs.
We kick things off by diving into a world of classic British sayings. From “you’re having a laugh” to “it’s all gone pear-shaped,” Lew throws a list at Steve to see which phrases are still alive in 2025 and which should’ve stayed in 1973. Then it’s onto modern slang — “peng,” “peak,” “safe,” and even the mysterious “6’7” noise every kid is doing right now.
After that, the pair get stuck into a very on-trend rant: this year’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! line-up. Real celebs? Reality stars? One angry ginger? Steve’s not holding back.
In Say It Like Steve, Lew asks what Steve secretly loves about modern life — and the answer might just surprise you.
And of course, we wrap things up with The Bleeding Dad Joke, featuring long-winded nonsense, chicken wordplay, and a truly chaotic punchline involving the Pope.
