    Episode 17 - Jim Campbell

    Look who washed up on the beach... last summer It’s non-other than stand up comedian, writer, podcast overlord and thoroughly lovely chap Jim Campbell! This episode was recorded in the summer of 2019 when Jim was gearing up for his Edinburgh show Beef which received great reviews. Jim is arguably best known for hosting the disgustingly popular (and now daily!) podcast Football Ramble, which has been topping charts for over 10 years. The Football Ramble gang have toured the UK performing a live version of the podcast and even taken the show over-the-pond to the big old US of A. Happy Listening… Also, please check out the links bellow for Jim Campbell and Football Ramble News: www.mrjimcampbell.com Twitter: @JimCampbellTFR Instagram: @jimcampbellcomedy Podcast: play.acast.com/s/footballramble Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 16 - Rich Wilson

    After a bit of a wobble we’re back with another episode! Thanks to all the DIC’s for hanging in there. Producer Adam has finally resurfaced with the vault of recordings after moving to a neighbouring island. The castaway in this episode is award winning stand up comedian, compère extraordinaire and fellow podcaster Rich Wilson. Rich is beloved not just in Britain’s best comedy clubs but around the globe having toured the USA, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand where he won the best international artist award at the 2016 New Zealand comedy festival and was nominated again in 2017. But it is back home in Blighty where our castaway is most loved. He is a stalwart of the comedy circuit and widely regarded as on of the best compères in the game, as well as being a truly lovely human. Frank Skinner describes him as “really, really funny”.  One could say that our castaway is a stand up, stand ups stand up, which is ironic because when he washed up on our beach he was sprawled out face-down, covered in crabs.
