Danny Dyer

Every now and again there will be a guest on this that will have you in tears of laughter. It’s very rare I will listen to the same episode again of anything but the Danny Dyer, Joe Thomas and Tom Davis episodes are just magnificently funny and I will go back to.
Some episodes are hilarious

Helpful Sometimes

But the ads are become so intrusive and so long winded now I’ve given up following it. I get everyone is here to make money but 5-6mins at the beginning before we’ve got any content is unbearable. Sorry guys.
Longlegs

Just here to say, re-listened to the Noel Fielding ep and I think Ed and James (and Noel) may be entitled to a contributors fee for creating the voice/character of Longlegs. That’s all, bye!
So funny
