Excellent as always!

Discovered this series earlier today, and have just finished it. Andy is brilliant as always, as are his guests. Interesting, thoughtful and very funny.

Looking forward to series 2!

Informative and painfully funny.

The greatest living British comedian at his very best. That Andy doesn’t have his own prime-time television show is the biggest injustice of all time. Keep up the great work young man.

Wonderful.

A great listen. The host is, as ever, awesome and I was glad to hear that the cricket references were still sneaking in! Great guests, a perfect mix of informative and interesting while being light hearted and incredibly funny. I cannot wait for another series and hope this runs and runs. Thank you!

Underated comedian G.O.A.T

He's like the best uncle you could have. Awkward, funny, smart the best pun comedian alive today, maybe.

I love this series

He’s a very clever man (as is his sister) an excellent satirist, and also very funny. Also try running a sweepstake as to when he shoehorns his one and tru passion into the discussion. Also try his Bugle podcast. Great fun both. Stuart
