Having won Celebrity MasterChef and 'star baker' in The Great Sports Relief Bake Off, Edmondson will leave the cooking to the professionals... taking guests such as Chrissie Hynde, Reece Shearsmith, Tony Visconti, Daisy Haggard and Ed Byrne to a top restaurant whilst you get to hear the witty and wonderous conversation.

Jesse Tyler Ferguson is breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. He's getting out of the studio and into his favorite restaurants with people like his on screen Modern Family sister Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, and so many more. A celebrity-interview podcast, who's doing that? No one. Which is why Jesse needed to. He and his guests will get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. They'll laugh about his attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, will a chocolate soufflé get him to reveal all his secrets? Yeah. Yeah, it will. So, join Jesse… dinner's on him.  Dinner's on Me is a Sony Music Entertainment production.  Want to be the first to get new episodes of Dinner's on Me?

Omid tells his story to Abi. Abi tells Omid's story to Sean, then Sean to Kai, Kai to Sikisa and Sikisa to Helen… each time with hilarious misrememberings, improvisations, stumbles, fumbles and laughs. Six comedians have a funny story to tell. Can they pass the story along the chain without completely twisting the tale? But this isn't like the game you play at school where you only whisper short sentences. Each episode is a complete, beautifully written story, with each retelling getting funnier (and weirder!) as it passes on. And boy, does season one of Please Tell Me A Story feature an all star comedy cast: Omid Djalili, Abi Clarke, Seán Burke, Kai Samra, Sikisa, and Helen Bauer. Join them as the story gets weird…https://listen.sonymusic-podcasts.link/qxhC1Drl A Somethin' Else & Sony Music Entertainment production.
