In this episode, Tom shares stories from his all-inclusive holiday in Crete—sun, sea, and a surprise earthquake (don’t worry, he’s fine). We dive into fears of open water, dream holidays like Galaxy’s Edge and Iceland, and a hilariously cursed AI image fail. Then the nerd rants begin: we break down the chaotic Doctor Who finale, the baffling lore changes in The Acolyte, Switch 2 launch impressions, and the ongoing hype (and fear for our wallets) around GTA VI.

Ash catches up with longtime friend and professional magician Tom Cocker (Tricksy Tom) in this episode of Just Brosing. The two reminisce about how they met on Twitter (X) over a shared love of Portal 2 and Doctor Who, tracing their evolving friendship through college years, old YouTube videos, and cringey but beloved online content.

Tom dives into his fascinating journey from TV production graduate to holiday park host and now full-time touring magician. He shares stories from his early career, the pivotal decision to leave the corporate media world, and how an audition led to a life of performing comedy, mind-reading, and danger magic.
