British comedy podcast recommendations please?

Oct 30, 2014 16:16

I'm spending a lot of time on buses lately because of my job, so I've got kind of bored of all the music on my ipod...So can anyone recommend me some good podcasts- old or new? Anything about British comedy, please! I'm betting at least some of you listen to comedy podcasts regularly so any suggestions would be appreciated ( Read more... )

I don't know if you've encountered them already, but I'm really enjoying the two XFM podcasts that I follow - the Josh Widdicombe Show, and the Elis James and John Robins Show. They're both a lot of fun and I enjoy them a lot ♥. I think both shows have really been getting better of late, but it's worth starting from the beginning with both, I think. ...Though there are like 80 episodes of Josh Widdicombe now? But I still think it's worth it ( ... )

I do have a soft spot for Josh Widdicombe, so thanks for that recommendation, will definitely check that out (and especially if there's 80 episodes, that'll keep me going for a while!).

Ugh Andrew Lawrence. I'm the same as you, I always found him a bit weird and not funny, but now I just find him disgusting. Ava Vidal wrote a good article against his rant: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/womens-life/11196679/Ukip-As-a-black-female-comedian-I-do-loathe-the-party.-Promise....html. He's so offensive, but at least I'm guessing we don't have to see him much on TV any more. :P

Have you tried the Radio 4 Friday Night Comedy show? It's really good when Sandi Toskvik is on. Or Simon Mayo's confession podcast on radio 2?

Thank you for the recommendations! I've just downloaded the Simon Mayo one and going to get the Radio 4 one now! :)
