    When does a joke go too far?

    Do you like a comedian to get as close to the line as possible? Are you outraged when a moral boundary has been breached for the sake of a laugh? Or are you happy just as long as it's not you in the line of fire? 
    This week on the pod Chris, Marcus and Sarah discuss their thoughts on the more risky side of comedy.

Interesting, comforting and funny

I stumbled across this podcast during one of the lockdowns after having listened to Marcus on the football ramble for years, and I’ve really come to enjoy it.

Always interesting subject matter which Marcus, Sarah and Chris discuss in often funny and often serious ways and always thought provoking. The content over the last year or so has been comforting in often difficult times - keep up the good work!
