    You’ve Got Mail
    We’ve been recommissioned again for an amazing 19th series and Richard is exhausted from his final attempt to let the world know when International Men’s Day is and what are you talking about? He always wears a suit. There’s nothing unusual going on. His guest is just some guy from some old sketch show and the first Knight (that says Ni) on the podcast, Sir Michael Palin.
    Obviously Rich is in awe and on his best behaviour, but that won’t stop him bringing up one of Michael’s rare career disappointments and nearly derailing everything. But Michael is everything you’d hope for and you can find out what he got paid for his script being used in Sliding Doors, how the Fish Dance went down in North Korea, how Life of Brian might have been Python at its height, the perils of being a mud eater, how Mrs Palin ended up on Saturday Night Live, why Terry Jones was the heart of Python and how this remarkable friendship between writing partners was maintained right to the end. Plus the best impression of Cicero that you’re likely to hear. Will Richard end up in the diary and what terrible things will be said about him…? We will have to wait.
    Monthly badgers - your backstage interview includes Michael ad-libbing a brand new scene for Life of Brian which I would say is worth your monthly subscription to the end of time. So sign up to see this - we don’t get many emergency questions on stage, but he did a few in the dressing room. gofasterstripe....

      Yep, the shirt and tie are very sweet, and a very noticable change of attire. I have very few heroes/heroines but there are a few people I'm sure I'd be silly in front of if I met them. My wife surprised me on my birthday a few years back with a couple of expensive tickets for a John Cleese event, I was a bit annoyed because I'm not particularly interested in him or in funding his divorces, we had a little row over her gift which, looking back, was quite embarrassing and I should have been more gracious. I would have thoroughly enjoyed to listen to Terry Jones or Michael Palin though. I gave the Cleese tickets to one of my kids and they went with a friend, they both enjoyed it. My wife doesn't try to surprise me with nice presents anymore :/

What you are doing with these interviews will stand the test of time (if we live on past the apocalypse), because you are documenting the lives of iconic public figures (and creative geniuses) of which there will never be their like again (as I'm sure you're aware, you should know what you're doing). Anyway, I liked it.

      He's my favourite Python too. Often playing the understated roles but he played them extremely well. While I would be happy to meet any Python (or would have when two were still with us), it was always Michael that I felt I'd get on with best if I knew them in real life. I love to quiz him on his travel shows.

    • @NoxiousRob
      @NoxiousRob 4 роки тому +1

      All the Pythons were great, but I have to agree, there was something about Michael that always made him my favourite. He seemed to be able to play any sort of character, from the meek, put upon sort of guy, to a thoroughly nice person, to a spiv, to a nasty piece of work, and always seemed believable in whatever type of character he played.

Marching up and down the square, and his part as the father of the bride in Holy Grail are also favourites of mine. He's got great hair.

    What a nice man Michael Palin is! I think he is missguided on the whole North korea business and would benefit from reading Park Yeon-mi's book In Order To Live and Without You, There Is No Us by Suki Kim... but once he's got that sorted out, I would love for him to be my prime minister.
