  • Two Men in a Field with Walkie Talkies and it's All Clear.
    Psychic Richard manages to divine the life of someone in his front row merely by looking at him, though what he finds out about this person's nipples will change your life forever. His guest this week is the Rod Hull faced comedian James Acaster.
    You will find out what it's like to survive three car crashes and two train derailments, how much you could expect to earn selling slurpies in Kettering in the 1990s and what it is that draws the police to conspiracy theorists. Acaster also completely Mitchells the new emergency question. But has he ever seen a Bigfoot? You'll have to wait until the end of the podcast to find out. But it's unlikely I reckon.

    It's great to see James Acaster just being a person. He is normally always on in a funny but defensive way

    WHY DID THIS NOT END UP ON CLASSIC SCRAPES - even the more detailed detailing story! This just proves his stories aren’t exaggerated because his real life is way more chaotic!

    This is brilliant. I worked at the fringe in 2012 and met you, you were one of the only nice and friendly comedians I met :) but I do remember you saying your first fringe was 1991 and being outraged that I was born in 1991 ...

    That’s so true about Mock The Week! There are comedians I love and some I hate- it’s great to have something for everybody. It’s so cool hearing James talk about it- I love him on that show

    I would much rather spend a day record shopping with James than sweater shopping.
    Than we could get some great food and end it with a smashing dessert.
    I don't know it would be a splendid day.

      when did he mention Mr Bungle? i must've missed that moment... when he was talking about doing 'weird time signatures and odd stops' in his band I wondered if he is a Cardiacs fan though..

      Have you listened to his Perfect Sounds podcast? His love of music is so infectious. Even the most obscure and "difficult" music, he really finds the magic.

    I'm I the only person old enough to notice that James is the spitting image of Steve Davis, the snooker player who was voted, at one time, the most boring person in sport (or something - I might have made that up but Spitting Image did a thing on him)??

      James looks almost exactly like Will Merrick, the actor who played Steve Davis in The Rack Pack. They should play brothers in a sitcom about the Kettering Board Games Club.

      @freckledlemonade5901 3 роки тому +4

      Absolutely! The Resemblance between James & young Steve Davis is uncanny!!! James only has to refer to recent photos of Steve for a perfect reference of what he will look like in the later years of his life!
      Lol Spot on comparison!
