Fun and Interesting

I really love listening to these comic minds unpicking, experimenting, reworking jokes and puns, playing with sentences, language and words. It’s a lot of fun, with great guests.

One of my favourite jokes of all time is:

Q. How do you turn a duck into a soul singer?
A. Put it in the microwave until its bill withers.

Keep going boys! :)

Fab podcast

Just started listening to the podcast after seeing your show a couple of days ago.

Prior to the show I was trying to think of what my hobby was, in case I was asked.

The first thing that came to mind was getting piercings seems like my hobby, but maybe I’m glad I wasn’t asked because you’d have probably poked holes in that 😂

Love this podcast

I could listen to Mark and Danny for hours just shooting the breeze - they are so funny and likeable. Also love hearing about the behind the curtain comedians stuff. Great guests but also love the Mark and Danny catch up episodes. Keep it up lads!
