Philip Garcia: The Public Has Been Disappointing.

Philip Garcia

THE PUBLIC HAS BEEN DISAPPOINTINGWith Philip Garcia Britain has become one enormous customer-service complaint, and Philip Garcia would very much like to speak to whoever's in charge. Welcome to The Public Has Been Disappointing, a gloriously outrageous comedy podcast where absolutely nothing is sacred, common sense is on the endangered species list, and the only thing sharper than the observations is Philip's tongue. From ridiculous celebrities and influencers famous for doing bugger all to backstabbing friends, freeloading relatives, dating disasters, embarrassing ailments, political absurdities and the sheer bloody expense of being alive, Philip takes apart modern life with wicked wit, theatrical indignation and absolutely no intention of behaving himself. Expect savage stand-up, brilliantly inappropriate observations, occasional poetic outbursts, filthy punchlines and the uncomfortable realisation that he's saying exactly what you've been thinking. It's outrageous, occasionally offensive, frequently ridiculous and rather more affectionate than Philip would care to admit. If you've ever muttered "Oh, for f**k's sake" at least six times before breakfast, you've found your podcast. Philip Garcia. Unfiltered. Unapologetic. Unreasonably funny. Contains strong language, adult humour and opinions that may cause offence to people who desperately deserve it.

    STRAIGHTEN YOUR CROWN… THEY'RE NOT YOUR FRIEND! Fake Friends, Backstabbing Bastards & the Audacity of Other People

    Ever had a friend who smiles to your face, slags you off behind your back, borrows your money, drains your patience and then has the absolute f*****g audacity to accuse YOU of changing? Welcome to friendship in the modern world. It's a minefield, darling, and half the mines are wearing lovely cardigans. In this gloriously vicious episode of The Public Has Been Disappointing, Philip Garcia turns his wicked tongue towards the smiling assassins, jealous bastards, emotional vampires, chaos besties and professional freeloaders who make ordinary relationships feel like unpaid employment. Inspired by his book, Straighten Your Crown, They're Not Your Friend, Philip takes apart the absurdities of modern friendship, from WhatsApp group warfare and suspiciously backhanded compliments to competitive misery, emotional blackmail and people whose entire personality consists of being offended when you stop doing them favours. There's savage stand-up, outrageous observations, spectacularly inappropriate language and an uncomfortable question: What if, occasionally, YOU'RE the arsehole? Nobody escapes entirely unscathed, least of all Philip. But beneath the bitchiness is something worth remembering. Real friends don't compete with your happiness, keep score of your failures or require you to perform emotional gymnastics to earn their affection. And sometimes the greatest act of self-respect is simply deciding you've had enough of someone's bollocks. If you've ever typed "No worries, hun!" while mentally planning somebody's funeral, this episode is for you. Straighten your crown. Check your circle. And for God's sake, stop lending Sandra money. Philip Garcia. Unfiltered. Unapologetic. I WITHDRAW NOTHING. Contains strong language, adult humour and potentially uncomfortable revelations about your friendship group. Based on the book Straighten Your Crown, They're Not Your Friend by Philip Garcia.
