This week, we get an update on Micky’s vegetarian diet. Did he stick to it? How did he find it? Has he aged in a week? Can he possibly age even more?
And the boys discuss self-dentistry, decorating, late 80s football magazine, On the Ball with Mick and Dan, and at what age do you start preparing for the end? When do you start shutting email accounts down and shredding private papers?

Fat Man eating in Mirrors, Introducing Mr John Rain, Good Looks, In Bed With My Dad, Toilet Bingo
Please Don't Hug Me is written, produced and presented by TV writer, comedian and Sabotage Times columnist, Daniel Ruiz Tizon, a man who spent the nineties convinced he was one half of Tears For Fears.
Daniel is joined on each show by regular contributors Fat Man on a Couch Stuart Armstrong, writer and comedienne Roisin Rae and occasionally comedienne Fiona Hardingham.
Growing old and they don't like it.
Double Fat Man on a Couch this week with Stuart Armstrong discussing his issues with the sun and eating in front of mirrors; Mr John Rain makes his PDHM debut with a look at the Royal Wedding; and Daniel pits his not descending from the upper deck of a bus until the last moment possible Good Look up against Richard Price's walking around with his attractive children; there's regular favourite Toilet Bingo - can surprise winner Zoomeister hang onto his title? And a new feature, "In Bed with My Dad" in which Daniel talks about, well, sharing a bed with his Dad for two years at the tail end of the 80s. All this and more.

Doing an Orzabal; Baguettes; Awkward Bedroom Exit; Lunch with Tosin; Good Looks
Please Don't Hug Me is written and produced by TV writer, comedian, Sabotage Times columnist, sometime football journalist and all too often temporary office worker, Daniel Ruiz Tizon. He is joined every week by old school friend and 1980s school sprint champion Micky Boyd, who still believes in him. Each blames the other for the 13-year break in their friendship from 1990 to 2003. When reunited, Daniel found Micky to be an overweight family man, whilst the former sprint champ found Daniel convinced he was one half of Tears For Fears.
The show without a home returns with Daniel Ruiz Tizon at the helm a la Roland Orzabal circa 1993.
This week writer and comedienne Roisin Rae's stressing about having her baguette snapped in half at the supermarket; there's lunch with Tosin; the Awkward Exit to the Bedroom in which Daniel wants to make sure the in-laws are comfortable with him sleeping with their daughter in the next room. Fiona thinks he's making too big a deal. But Daniel wants her to appreciate the mental adjustment her parents must make as he takes his place in her bed.
Also, sandwich routes comes from Willow Place, SW1 and Gavin Barber takes Daniel on in the latest Good Looks Challenge. Plus regular favourite TOILET BINGO: Can Superlative C make it four triumphs? And listeners battle it out to win Daniel's battered cords, the same trousers that witnessed his dramatic fall in the last year.

When reunited, Daniel found Micky to be an overweight family man, whilst the former sprint champ found Daniel convinced he was one half of Tears For Fears.
Fiona Hardingham is back for her final show before leaving for LA. Meanwhile, we're at home with uber-toilet bingo winners The Penneys; Fiona and Daniel discuss how to get past the major embarrassment that is the studio flat; there's Ask Boydie where Micky is forced to defend his controversial "Wind Zone" idea, and the modern man also talks about how he'd like to date again, inspite of being married.
They're growing old and they don't like it.
