After a brief hiatus… ok we were lazy and stretched the Christmas break to 4 months but we are back with divisive chats on what it’s like to be a stand up comic starting out and respect those that go up night after night. This chat was spurred on by the fact that Diane Morgan spent 10 years doing standup and hated it apparently. We can’t go through a podcast without mentioning Piers Morgan and vegans who try to take the moral high ground. Also this is preamble to the Episode 51 chat about

Wokie and Egg White talk about the Jerry Sadowitz incident in Edinburgh Fringe 2022 that was the talk of the town. Does this mean comedy is going backwards and does the word ‘Fringe’ need to be removed from the Edinburgh Fringe as it looks to be going towards safe comedy and moving far away from its roots. We chat it out so lend us your ears.ShownotesIn the 90’s Mark Thomas, in his TV Show Comedy product, drove a tank through McDonalds. That right. To give context he was the 90’s

There is an update on the Jim Davidson sitcom and our ambition to make it the British Friends. How can any podcast end without mentioning the extremely right wing Skinny John Milius and his extremely biased moviemaking machine.

In this wide ranging rant, Woke Asian Guy starts off with what the 90’s American sitcoms were like regarding diversity and uses Seinfeld as an example. We see how hard it was when the actors don’t look like the cast of Friends and how their stories were written. We then segue into the mistaken scientific fact that Squirrels are practically human… horse poo we say and we break it down to show you. And FINALLY! We have an audio trailer of Jim Davidson the sitcom titled: Jim Davidson is my
