Question, why are UK quiz shows always asking questions about the US? Watching Finish Line, Tipping Point, The Chase they all have questions about things in the US. On US shows do the have questions about the UK?
Frankly, having adverts in the paid subscription is beyond annoying and I shall not be renewing because of this. Bad move by goalhanger
I love this podcast and was coming on to say what so many others have already commented on. Richard, I say this with love, please try not to talk over Marina. You are a great partnership but it’s such a bad look to cut someone off mid speech- especially someone as hilarious as your co-host.
Does what it say on the tin. It’s entertaining and gives a little glimpse behind the scenes. Snide remarks against Meghan Markle are inexplicable and lower the tone somewhat. Sneering is such an ugly trait seen far too often in posh privately educated people in the U.K.

Marina could do with slowing down her delivery and taking a breath of air
Richard please curtail your dad jokes by 50% at least. I... more
