    Season 3 Episode 7 - If I Were Prime Minister for a Day - A Morons Guide to Politics and its Humour

    There's nothing more boring than politics. Or is there. It's the one thing that touches each of our lives if we like it or not. So is there humour in it? We push the boundaries by going Newsnight-Lite (or Politics without aiming to be political)... 3 Comedians write 2 policies each - one serious, one dafter than our current politicians - and we have to guess which is fun or serious - plus chat about political comedians and the joke that is modern life...

    Season 3 Episode 5 - Dealing with Triggers and Military Language

    It'It's a scary scary world right now. We're seeing conflicts all over the world - and that can be very triggering for far too many veterans. So how do you maintain your mental well-being? We argue that doing Stand Up Comedy is beyond helpful... So let's examine the language we used to use - and how it confuses the fun out of the civvies we meet... Because every veteran could make a stand up routine with that kind of material... And you can fight the triggers by looking for the funny...!

    Season 2 - Episode 11 - What is Unique and Why's it Important?

    Some bands do cover acts, comedians never do... To make it on the Stand Up Circuit you have to bring new material, not steal other act's stuff... But it takes more than that to be a real comedian that actually gets booked... and continue to get booked. In this episode we talk about why originality, being unique and not acting like a d**k might help your path on the Stand Up circuit. 3 Open Mic acts and a Professional Comedian take the piss - and there is a warning order for the last few minutes... We're normally dark... But we attempt to break the envelope in the last few minutes... That's what were here for...!
