Wolf & Owl with Romesh Ranganathan and Tom Davis

What's the best way to get rid of fat?

In this episode of Wolf & Owl, the boys are dealing with some of life’s less glamorous problems, as one family battles a full-blown outbreak of nits, and another discovers an absolutely horrific maggot infestation in the bin.

Tom and Rom also get into the complicated world of body image, weight loss, and visceral fat, discussing everything from liposuction and CoolSculpting, to the realities of trying to change your body or accept it as is.

Plus, Tom has a serious beef with wasps that needs exploring, the boys realise they’ve forgotten to set up the annual Wolf & Owl Fantasy Premier League, and they discuss their hopes for GTA 6.

Another week, another collection of deeply unpleasant household problems from Wolf & Owl.
