Mark and Danny’s podcast and chemistry is so funny and entertaining to listen to. Loving the podcast. Only just discovered it but I’m listening to them all back!
Great spin off show. I’ve been listening to you both so much recently that you featured in my dream.
You were both sat on a bench in an art gallery admiring some artwork, i recognised you from the back so i sneaked up and whispered ‘oooh how the other half live’

Brilliantly honest, with great semi-structured camaraderie throughout. Really enjoyable.
This podcast is terrific, really captures The Fringe atmosphere and experience, warts and all; told by 2 of the hardest workers in the biz. Sadly couldn’t make it to Edinburgh this year but this makes it feel like I’m there.
I love the daily podcast…. We went to the fringe on the 1st weekend and saw both Danny (we were one of 8 people on the Saturday) and Mark… and even got a mention on podcast 🥰 like it as I can keep up on how the shows are doing but also very funny if not been to either shows, listen to it!
