Listeners of The Last Post that love the show mention:The Last Post podcast is a brilliant and addictive show that offers clever satire of our contemporary world set in a bizarre post-apocalyptic future. It may take an episode or two to fully grasp the concept, but once you're hooked, there's no turning back. With hilarious moments scattered throughout, it's easy to become addicted to this unique and absurd podcast.
One of the best aspects of The Last Post is its ability to provide witty and on-point commentary on current events while maintaining a sense of absurdity. The hosts, Alice Fraser, Christopher Kirby, Andy Zaltzman, and the rest of the team, bring their A-game with fast-paced humor and a knack for satire. The show never fails to deliver 10-15 minutes of fantastic Bugle-esque comedy every day. Additionally, the recurring segments like D'ancy and HAGOW add an extra layer of ridiculousness that keeps listeners entertained.
While The Last Post excels in many areas, there are some potential downsides worth mentioning. The post-apocalyptic conceit may initially confuse listeners and require some time to fully understand. Additionally, the humor can be hit or miss for some individuals as comedy preferences vary. However, these minor drawbacks are easily overshadowed by the overall brilliance and entertainment value of the podcast.
In conclusion, The Last Post is a must-listen podcast for fans of satirical comedy. With its sparkling wit, clever guests, and daily reminders to drink half a glass of water (yes, really), this show has the power to make the real world more bearable.
