    10: Can we make a game show out of Fesshole?
    Aug 6 2024
    This is genuinely my favourite episode of the Fesshole podcast - the one where we turn it into a panel show.

    From the earliest days of doing the Fesshole account, there's been people saying "you should make this into a panel show" and I kinda resisted it as I felt the best version of Fesshole should go deeper into the confessions rather than riff off them, but you know what, we finally had a go and it's... good?

    I loved writing a script for a show and devising some simple games to play and I loved getting Sam Bambs in, I felt her humour and just good naturedness really made me and Dave up our game.

    OK - let's brainstorm some titles and see what sticks.

    • Can we make a game show out of Fesshole?
    • Fesshole: the inevitable panel show
    • The one where we get a funny lady in and she's improves the show massively
    Hope you like the episode - we had such fun doing this and I think that comes accross.

    This is the shed episode. The one me and Dave recorded face to face in a shed and the vibe is good because of this.

    Recording this face-to-face is so much more fun than being on a Zoom, you can react easier, you can read people's cues easier and it's memorable in a way that working electronically is not. Can you remember any of the Zoom meetings you've had? Nah, they turn into a massive blur, whereas a meeting face-to-face, well that does something to your brain and you remember that meeting for life.

    So yeah, real life records are better and yet podcasts rarely do them for the simple reason they cost more money and time. Damn.

    I sort of wanted to call this episode the David Cameron Wanking Shed episode for this reason, as when David Cameron left Government, he retired to his shed, and everyone who's ever had a work-from-home shed, you know there's a lot of wanking done in it.

    So that as an intrusive thought when your mate says "I must show you my work from home shed" - they are showing you where they fiddle with themselves between writing emails and grumpy tweets.

    As an episode itself this one is pretty relaxed and fun and it throws up two ideas for future episodes - we've got a "rejected fessholes" section which now listening to it, I'm kicking myself not making this into the a full episode as it's the one thing people always ask me "what's the really filth stuff that you can't publish?" so that would be good for clicks. And the other episode here would be doing a full Anon Opin one - as I just find it such fun to discuss opinions.

    Do dive in coz this is the "week in review" Dave & Rob episode at our best, and in our quiet format point where we alternate between these type and stunt episodes, have we got a stunt episode for you next week. Oh yes.

    8: What does an actual PRIEST think about Fesshole?
    Jul 23 2024
    When we started this podcast the one thing we thought would be important to do was to talk to a priest and compare notes about taking confessions.

    Yes we're mostly taking confessions for comedy reasons but at the same time, we're dealing with real people's lives here and how does it compare?

    We've ended up with an interesting show that's surprisingly theological and philosophical and most of all funny.

    We didn't intend to make a bible studies class but here we are, we explore the usefulnes of prayer, and attempt to answer the difficult question why confession is needed.

    It's because it lightens the burden on your, well, we're not religious so we shouldn't say soul, but you know what we mean.

    Tackling this was a curious proposition really, there's something about talking to people of God where we feel we have to be respectful, so we don't start shouting about atheism but we do eventually, quietly fess up our own slightly hippy science beliefs, in line with Carl Sagan, that we are the universe looking at itself. And so is our cat.

    PS: The alt title was 'We asked a priest: "If God loves us, why did he let Elon ruin Twitter?"'
