It is funny and overall a good podcast
Hi Romesh,
I really enjoyed this episode — such a fantastic interview with Chris. I’m a big fan of his, and I’m going to see him on tour at the Crewe Lyceum next month. Can’t wait!😊
I was listening to the Christmas special this morning and couldn’t stop laughing! What a way to start the morning. Thank you so much!
Really good podcasts, admittedly I give most of the guest episodes a miss, mainly because the guests aren’t very interesting. Not that i’m interesting at all but i’m not on a podcast. The Shanthi episodes are hilarious, I just wish they were longer which is why i’ve not given 5 stars. It would be great to tag Tom Davis into an episode for the wolf pack.
Always loved Romesh and after finding this pod and listening to Jameela Jamils ep was hooked. Can’t wait to hear more, especially the ones with your mum!
