Joe's still in Manchester, filming for Cats Does Countdown. So in this episode, David tries to get Joe to tell him about the famous Countdown set and what exactly happens during a recording of the show. Joe's a little over-tired though, so isn't particularly receptive to David's questioning.

Nish Kumar brings plenty of laughter to the table, discussing food (the best meal he's had in India), family (his parents' ploy to make him grow up) and friendship (what he really thinks of Ed Gamble and James Acaster). Just so you know, our podcast might contain the occasional mild swear word or adult theme. All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish We can't all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help.

*This is part 2 of Joe Wilkinson's episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*Many of you will know of Kent as "The Garden of England", but what many of you won't know is that many years ago Kent was known by a different nickname: "The Beer Garden of England". This was due to its unusually large number of public benches, upon which each year millions of ramblers would rest their weary legs and treat themselves to a bottle of lager (or a pint of bitter should the necessary facilities be available). Public benches have since been replaced by public houses, and this week's guest knows a thing or two about such south-easterly establishments; it's comedian and actor Joe Wilkinson! You'll know Joe from his appearances on Live At the Apollo, 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, After Life, as well as when he competed on The Great British Bake Off. As an accomplished stand-up he's spent many an evening frequenting pubs up and down the country, and we can only imagine that'll play some part in shaping his very own 'Pub of the Mind'.Want to hear an extended version of this episode (featuring a Patreon-only choice), gain access to our bonus podcast ‘Behind The Cellar Door' and support the upkeep of the pub?

In episode eight, Johnny talks to the brilliant award-winning writer and comedian Bec Hill. Australian-born and London-based, you might know Bec from her hilarious Flipchart videos - that she calls Paper Puppetry - which have been featured on shows such as 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown and the Jonathan Ross show. Bec's approach to comedy can be best summed up by this review of her 2017 Edinburgh Fringe show: “Bec Hill is a multi-coloured ray of eternal sunshine. In a world of pain and darkness, her total lack of cynicism is refreshing.” In fact, if you haven't seen one of her Flipchart videos, I urge you to go and watch one right now! There's a pinned tweet on her Twitter which presents dozens of her videos and standup routines. This conversation was recorded online in mid-January of 2023. We cover the films of Rob Reiner and Edgar Wright, discuss Daft Punk's greatest contribution to cinema, and we try and figure out if 1997's Batman & Robin is……….Well, we just try and figure it out……. Many thanks to James Van As who wrote and performed the brilliant music (check out James' brilliant Loco Looper game), and to Willow Van As who designed the amazing artwork and provided general podcast support. If you can, please drop a review on Apple Podcasts as that helps other people find the show. You can contact My Movie DNA on Twitter @mymovieDNA or email mymovieDNA@gmail.com.

We're very happy to welcome back writer, comedian and podcaster Kevin Day (@kevinhunterday) back to the show to talk comedy, football and more. The reason we wanted to have Kevin back on the show was to discuss the British panel show on TV, following the death last year of Sean Lock. Kevin worked with Sean on a number of shows and has written for dozens of shows including Have I Got News for You, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Here Comes the Buzzcocks and many more. We talk about why they are so popular in the UK and haven't really worked as well in the US. But we do talk about one of the shows that has succeeded in both places and that's Whose Line Is It Anyway. We talk about improv comedy, the genius of Paul Merton and Tony Slattery, among others, the culture of improv in the US vs the UK and the challenge of doing improv vs stand up. We also talk about the problems of diversity in booking panel shows and the difficulties of avoiding tokenism. We also talk about podcasts as a means for young comedians to get exposure and segue that into chatting about comedians doing football podcasts, including Quickly Kevin, Comedians Playing Fantasy Premier League and, maybe the grand dame of the genre, The Tuesday Club. We also reminisce about Kevin doing the Chappers podcast more than a decade ago with Mark Chapman, Graham Poll and Roy Meredith. That leads into actual football chat. We recorded this on Transfer Deadline Day, but not much talk about that. We discuss the arrival of Patrick Viera at Crystal Palace and how much Kevin is enjoying the football at Selhurst Park this year, the rivalry (derby?) with Brighton and the challenges that brings with hosting The Price of Football with Seagulls supporter Kieran Macguire. We also talk about the proliferation of London football clubs, rivalries and tribalism and comparing that to American sports. (Disclaimer: I accidentally swapped Alabama and Auburn in my story and flip-flopped the fandom of the tree killer in that heated blood feud. My apologies to the fans of both teams.) Kevin is always a great guest and we hopefully to get back in the near future to continue the chat about British sportswriting vs American sportswriting and the other stuff we ran out of time to discuss.

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson promising we wouldn't end up in the No Deal situation we are currently in. In the Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Contact, the appeal of the Birmingham Six, and a certain game called Fake News. Jim and guest host Frank go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Frank has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up. Then we revisit the world of Psychic Nikki to see if she predicted anything that happened in 2020. And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week. The full show notes for this episode can be found at http://fallacioustrump.com/ft65 You can contact the guys at pod@fallacioustrump.com, on Twitter @FallaciousTrump, or facebook at facebook.com/groups/fallacioustrump P.S. Mark is taking a break from the podcast for a few episodes due to work commitments, but he will return - promise!

Pod Trawlers - we trawl through podcasts so you don't have to
Hello Everyone!Social media is awash with black squares and arguments about how to best deal with RACISM. We thought it was a very simple subject, really: Just Don't be a Racist!But it turns out that as with all things in life, there are so many levels of complexity....so here are our recommendations of podcasts that have helped us get a mental grip on it all. It's a long episode, but we blame Gyles Brandreth and his discussion about the culinary delights that are Baked Beans. So here we go:1619 - from the New York Times “1619” is a New York Times audio series, hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones. The series examines the very long shadow of American slavery. If you decide to listen to anything at all in order to try to understand the US side of things, please listen to this.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/23/podcasts/1619-podcast.htmlAbout Race with Reni Eddo-LodgeThis is a podcast presented by the author of the bestselling Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race. Featuring key voices from the last few decades of anti-racist activism, the podcast looks at the recent history that has led to the politics of today. It's "uncomfortable" listening at times, but if you want to get a grip on racism in the UK, it's a genuine must listen.https://www.aboutracepodcast.com/ The PatdownEpisode 61 - George FloydMs. Pat is a US comedian and author (check out her book Rabbit) who brings an honest, in your face, and hilarious perspective to her shows. There is a WHOLE LOT OF SWEARING, so if you are of a delicate constitution, get the swear jar ready.https://www.mspatcomedy.com/podcast/#podcasts Trevor Noah, via the Daily Show Ears Edition From Comedy Central’s Podcast Network this is the Ears edition of the Daily Show. It's presented by the brilliant and funny Trevor Noah. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-daily-show-with-trevor-noah-ears-edition/id1334878780And finally, a bit of a change of direction, Something Rhymes with Purple This is a podcast about words and language. It's hosted by Susie Dent, author and the star of dictionary corner on 8/10 Cats Does Countdown and by broadcaster and ex MP and author Gyles Brandreth.They are a brilliant pair, and there is no end to their knowledge about the origins, meanings and insights into how and why we use the words we do. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/something-rhymes-with-purple/id1456772823?mt=2And that's it! At the risk of overusing our favourite adjective (too late?) we think that all of the above are BRILLIANT and, as far as BLM goes, essential listening. As always, thank you for listening! If you want more podcast recommendations follow us on Twitter at @PodTrawlersAnd if you like this podcast, please do spread the word, and give it a gold star on wherever you listen to your podcasts! Thank you also to Anna Meredith for her brilliant music, and this week also to the brilliant Childish Gambino, and the passionate and oh so articulate Kimberly Jones.#bestpodcasts#podtrawlers#1619#NikoleHannahJones#BLM#childishgambino#thisisamerica#kimberlyjones#somethingrhymeswithpurple #trevornoah#bakedbeans#thepatdown#georgefloyd#aboutrace#renieddolodge#slavery#susiedent#gylesbrandreth

David and Michaela have a so-so time with "Smashed", a surprising fan favourite (not that surprising when you know one thing that happens at the end of the episode). The nerds are back and they aren't terribly interesting, but there's so much damn FASHION in this episode that it doesn't even matter. Big rings make a surprising comeback, turtlenecks never die and Anya runs into eyeshadow trouble.

Seann Walsh is a regular face on British TV. You’ll have seen him on Saturday night’s sports panel show Play To The Whistle and as team captain on comedy quiz show Virtually Famous. Other recent TV appearances include Live At The Apollo, the Jonathan Ross Show, Tonight at The London Palladium, Channel 4’s 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Alan Carr: Chatty Man and Russell Howards Stand Up Central. This guy is everywhere! But there’s good reason for it. For however disheveled he may be, the Foster's Comedy Award nominee is also one of the hottest comics in the UK right now and also taking America by storm. Last week Seann made his big debut on America’s popular late night talk show Conan O’Brien. Not bad for having only been in the country for a week! With a keen observational mind, Seann Walsh can spot the absurdity in everything and convert it to perfectly delivered stand-up comedy. You might have seen Seann on TV, but he’s something else live – pacing the stage, working the room and reducing crowds to hysterics. Even if he’d probably rather be at home watching Sky Sports News. In this episode Seann chats to Caroline Feraday and Claire Bullivant about starting young in the playgrounds, coping with nerves, his genius Michael McIntyre impression and being an absolute master… Find out more about Seann Walsh on these links: https://seannwalsh.com https://www.facebook.com/seannwalshcomedy https://twitter.com/seannwalsh Make sure you also check out Seann’s podcasts on iTunes News-ish and Film-ish Please visit our sponsor Beach Financial Group.

Returning guest Jen Krueger (from the "Notebooks/Day Planners") episode talks to us about her obsession with British Panel Shows. From the perhaps most well-known "QI" to the less-well-known-but-more-fun-named "8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown," she tells us why she likes these shows, which are her favorite guests, why she thinks these types of shows haven't made it in the US and about a reddit user who is a hero for uploading all these shows to YouTube.
