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.
Cockney & Son
Episode 26: The Office Christmas Party, Same old resolutions & Steve’s 2026 Speech
It’s the final episode of Series 1, and we’re ending it the only way we know how, with laughs, honesty, a bit of emotion, and absolutely no sugar-coating.
In this Christmas special, Lew and Steve look back on 26 episodes of graft, graft and more graft, over 5,000 downloads worldwide, from London to New Zealand, the US to Tunisia. Not bad for a mic, a cuppa and a lot of opinions.
We kick off with a festive Bit of a Natter, diving into the chaos of office Christmas parties free bars, bad decisions, gossip, sensible shoes and why you should always remember someone’s watching. Steve shares old-school Royal Mail party memories and gives blunt advice for surviving modern workplace dos and don’ts.
Then it’s Adam & Eve It, as we tackle New Year’s Resolutions, why “New Year, New Me” rarely works, gym memberships in January, saving money, bad habits, and whether there’s any point putting pressure on yourself at all.
The heart of the episode comes with a very special Say It Like Steve, a straight-talking message for Christmas and 2026. No palaces, no pretending. Just real advice about being honest, saying no, laughing louder, not staying where you don’t want to be, and admitting when you’re not fine.
And of course, we finish with absolute chaos in the final Bleedin’ Dad Joke, featuring Christmas crackers, terrible jokes, questionable punchlines and Steve doing what Steve does best.
From June to December, we’ve laughed, moaned, got emotional and kept it real.
Series 1 is done — Series 2 lands in 2026.
Stick the kettle on, have a laugh, and we’ll see you next year.
