    Wild Research, Julian Assange & a Hollywood What-If with Andrew O'Hagan

    On Restless Natives this week, another exceptional author. We've had Niven, we've had Welsh, but now the great literary heavyweight Andrew O'Hagan joins the clown and wolfman in studio. From the wild streets of Soho to the even wilder corridors of the publishing world, Andrew talks on class divides, the art of writing, and his near-miss moments in Hollywood, takes us behind the scenes of his latest book Caledonian Road, the madness of Julian Assange, and that time he found himself in the Queen’s orbit.

    Martin Compston

    Bleary eyed after our big win, we welcomed our first AC12 guest, Steve Arnott.. better known as Martin Compston onto Table Manners. As Line of Duty’s biggest fan, mum was in her element serving up delicious lamb & pistachio and only slightly disappointed not to hear an Essex accent from our Scottish guest. We talk to Martin about his obsession with chicken wings, eating Chinese takeaway on Christmas Day, how living in Las Vegas compares to living in Glasgow & winning over his (now) wife via an Irish promise ring, a song and all at an 11am Happy Hour!  His brand new ITV drama ‘Our House’ is on this week, every night at 9pm. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  12. Restless Natives - Coming August 10th

    SEASON 1 TRAILER

    Restless Natives - Coming August 10th

    Restless Natives is a cult Scottish film from 1985 featuring two scallywags – The Clown & The Wolfman. It’s iconic. Two resourceful rascals who take on the ambitious task of holding-up tourist buses in the Highlands… They were Robin Hood, only Scottish and on the back of a motorbike. Gordon Smart & Martin Compston are sampling that spirit - inspired by The Clown & The Wolfman - and distilling it into a podcast. They are setting themselves lofty ambitions before setting off in pursuit of tasks and goals they have absolutely no right achieving. A bit like their careers in TV, movies, newspapers and radio… Join them as they recount some of their ridiculous scrapes and adventures from the past while they plan even more ambitious, unreachable schemes for the future. Some of them will be achieved and others will crash and burn spectacularly. They’ve got lots to talk about, lots to share with you and nothing but time. As the film once said: “Is this the end of the story or a beginning of a legend?”

    Sushi, Parking Scams & 3 Day Hangovers

    After a spectacularly overambitious night out in London, the boys are together again and just about recovered, sort of. This week, Gordon and Martin reflect on birthday dinners gone rogue, surprise double meals, and the slow, painful realisation that hangovers now last three working days. Martin tries sushi (again), Gordon nearly gets scammed while investigating scams, and the two of them get unexpectedly emotional talking about the people in their lives who’ve always had their backs. And as they approach three years of Restless Natives, the boys want to hear from you – send in your favourite moments, words of wisdom, and long-running scams to hello@restlessnativespodcast.com Make sure you subscribe and leave a 5 star review!  Please review Global's Privacy Policy: https://global.com/legal/privacy-policy

    Leave Now: A Final Kenny Ho

    After 280+ episodes, two live shows, a music festival that never quite happened, and a podcast friendship forged in squirrel suits and hangovers… it’s time to say farewell. For now. In this episode of Restless Natives, Martin and Gordon get brutally honest about why they’ve had to hang up the mics, and take a look back at some of the stand out moments: the live shows; Germany; standout guests and the wild listener stories. There’s laughter, there's near-tears, and there’s plenty of gratitude—for the listeners, the Lesmahagow truck stop, and each other. It’s not the end forever. Just the end for now, or at least til the bonus episode.
