Episode 9 - Departed Dads Dad to Me

    • Entrevistas de comedia

This episode is an homage to the dads we have lost. While we can’t interview these departed fathers directly, we ask their children to voice them again through memories, stories and the objects they left behind. The texts, the birthday cards, the updated Oxford English Dictionary. Our main thread of conversation is about Jump Daddy’s father Des, a larger than life character who strewed French erotica round the joint as readily as he ran for parliament. This episode was recorded in Des’ favourite den, a beach-shack he had a major hand in decorating. So we conjure the man through his eccentric domestic effects and his birdshit-prone gravestone. And interspersed with these tales of Des are many other remarkable, singular, and moving stories about dads gone but not forgotten: Richard, Bob, Graham, Phil and Frank.
