Karl Pilkington

How the devil are you? Thank you so, so much downloading. Things good? Things not so good? Well put all that aside for an hour or so and let's dive into the world of KARL PILKINGTON. We announced that Karl would be joining us on Monday, as we always do (what? You don't know that? Check your social media!) and since then anticipation has been building for episode 55 and to hear more of what makes Karl, well... Karl. Craig & Producer Griff travelled south (London's soho to be exact) to meet Karl at the hotel he was staying in. Tea was ordered, microphones were set up and we hit the record button. It's a bit of a podcast of two halves this really. Craig and Karl start off by having a bit of a moan about all sorts of stuff (well, it was quite early in the morning) and then just before it turns into a full whinge about the state of everything they think is wrong, it's a hand brake turn into Karl's life and his past and what's happening right now. Actually while you're here... what's happening right now is this: https://www.skygroup.sky/corporate/media-centre/articles/en-gb/meet-karl-in-first-look-trailer-for-new-sky-one-comedy-sick-of-it Karl's done with all his travel show stuff and now he heads into sitcom territory with a show cowritten by himself and long term collaborator RICHARD YEE. 'SICK OF IT' starts sept 27th at 10pm on Sky 1 & NOW TV. And before you ask, no, we havnt been sponsored by Sky One. We just like Karl and happen to think his show is dead, dead good. Oh, and there may be a TSP connection for the very first episode of his show... Hmmm. It's a very, very entertaining episode that we loved recording. Karl is an absolutely brilliant fella to spend time some time with, so sit yourself down and strap yourself in. Really hope you enjoy. THIS IS EPISODE 55 OF THE TWO SHOT PODCAST WITH KARL PILKINGTON.

Jacob Anderson

Spooky seasonal greetings to you all. Hope you're all doing alright. This week on the podcast we are blessed with the company of artistic polymath Jacob Anderson; nom de plume Raleigh Ritchie.

Candid and warm and humble. This episode captures him in a self-reflective mood as he shares his struggles, strifes and hopes. He's a thoroughly lovely human and we hope he captures your hearts as much as he did ours. Big love Jacob.

The last ever Two Shot Podcast - Craig chats with Vicky McClure

Happy new year folks! As we celebrate the start of a new year we also celebrate the end of the TSP journey. What a 6 year journey it’s been! We’ve loved every second. How do we end it though? We couldn’t just record another episode. It had to be special. It had to mean something. How do we do that? We thought long and hard and then we decided to end it at the start. As you remember our very first guest was the magnificent Vicky McClure so it would seem a full circle moment was in order. A bit of a different spin this time though. If you’ve been with us for a while you’ll know that one guest that keep getting asked for again and again is our host, Craig. So….. Craig asked Vicky if she’d be up for turning the tables so that Vicky would be the one asking the questions and Craig would be on the receiving end. Seems perfect right? We think so. Craig drove to Nottingham to meet Vicky and they recorded this very special ending at the brilliant Mount Street Studios. We hope you enjoy. Who knows, tears may be shed. We just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that’s supported us over the years, it’s been a blast. Until we speak again, all our love and gratitude to you and every guest that’s given their free time to talk. Craig & Griff Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Danny

Happy Thursday! Hope you're all well. Here we go again. It's episode six! I say "here we go again" but this weeks guest is surprisingly different. Different in that usually, we tell you who it is and a little bit about them. Can't do that this week. Our guest wants to remain unnamed and this is something we respect on the Two Shot Podcast. For those of you who don't know (and why would you?) we give each guest freedom of edit which means they can talk freely and openly without consoring themselves and feeling inhibited during the chat. Once we've recorded and producer Griff has worked his magic in cleaning it all up and making it sound super sweet, we offer our guests the chance to have a listen and check that they've not said anything they're not comfortable with. In this instance, due to what our guest does for a living now, it made total sense.It's another great story and one we're pleased he agreed to chat about.Get the kettle on and let's get going. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard. Please tell your friends about us IRL and help spread the word on the internet, give us a rating on here if you like what you hear, and subscribe to stay update with future episodes.

You might know Aisling from ITV’s Mr Selfridge, the BBC’s War & Peace, Sky's The Midwich Cockoos amongst loads of other ace stuff.

David Morrissey

So. Here we are. IT'S 2019! WE. ARE. BACK. Let’s get going. Fresh out the traps with an absolute banger of an episode with 'The Governor' DAVID MORRISSEY. Craig & Griff met David in London (Craig was dying with a cold!) and we got IT ON. It’s the only way we could kick off 2019. It’s a beautiful, honest and almost fragile conversation with one of Liverpool’s finest. We ended 2018 with the magnificent JODIE COMER and we start 2019 with the majestic DAVID MORRISSEY. LIVERPOOL.

Cash Carraway

As we reach the end of it seems only right to furnish you all with another episode in the same week. Welcome to the penultimate TSP episode and this one has been long in the making. This week we welcome writer & show runner Cash Carraway. Craig and Cash were in touch 4 years ago to try and arrange and time and date for Cash to come on and talk…..turns out the perfect time and date is now! Cash first came to our attention with her book, Skint Estate. Since then, Cash has written for theatre and shorts and then a real breakthrough with incredible BBC/HBO series RAIN DOGS starring Daisy May Cooper. More recently Cash has been nominated in the BAFTA breakthrough category. Finally, Craig and Cash set up a date to meet for the first time in person to record. Craig has as welcomed into Cash’s house where the tea flowed and Craig tried to mask the sound of doughnut eating whilst conducting the conversation. He may have failed on a few occasions. Cash is an incredible person so we were thrilled to make this work. After this conversation do go read SKINT ESTATE and RAIN DOGS is available to stream now. We can’t wait to see what’s new on the slate for Cash. Until then, please welcome the brilliant Cash Carraway.
