Description
Where Eastenders meets Radio Four. Or should that be Radio Vier? This brand new podcast sees Eastenders star and all-round good egg JAKE WOOD team up with his old mate, The German Comedy Ambassador HENNING WEHN to tackle a different subject every week.
JAKE "I met Henning when he first got on the UK comedy circuit. Back then he barely spoke any English. Mind you, not much has changed on that front."
HENNING "Jake is one of my oldest mates in Britain. It's a great honour to introduce him to more highbrow audience."

The boys put on HATS and talk about them for a while, before digressions into trying to buy Middlesborough Football Fanzines without cash and a part of the tale of William Tell which makes the Swiss out to be a right rowdy lot. On Social Media you will see the HATS in question. It's well worth seeking it out to see what Henning puts on his bonce. Coming Soon....Hotels, Advertising and Complaints Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane
"We Are All Made of Stars" sang electronic musician and animal rights activist Moby, and Jake confirms it, although without much evidence, in this episode about ... ELECTRICITY. Henning makes the point that electricity, while essential, is a bit of a double edged sword and the boys admit they don't really understand where it comes from, or even what it is. But you didn't come here for a learning experience. At least we hope not. HEY! Leave a comment please and help WWITM grow... N...
Expect fireworks as Henning and Jake have words over CYCLING, or better, cyclists "the most persecuted group in society" according to the German Comedy Ambassador. Jake wants to tax them, and the conversation deviates towards the state of British roads. Despite his devils advocate stance Jake admits to owning lycra and a mountain bike so the boys part as friends. And he's half French so has to like CYCLING. Coming soon...hot topics include HOTELS, HATS and ELECTRICITY Follow the lads and sugg...
The boys discuss EXPECTATIONS with opposing views. Jake was told by his careers advisor to give up acting, Henning had no expectations of becoming a stand-up comedian when he arrived in the UK some twenty years ago...it's all about EXPECTATIONS! It's 2026 so "ENGLAND EXPECTS" !! Just sit back and don't do anything about it. CYCLING next week Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane
THE GREAT GIVEAWAY!! Henning and Jake have PRIZES to give to two lucky listeners who have helped our algorithms by leaving likes and reviews, because without such things we don't stand a chance. The boys read out reviews and pick the winners of the EASTENDERS Street Sign and the many many signed Henning Wehn DVDS including one that had a celebrity director/cameraman! There are brief diversions into English Cricket fast Bowlers and the recording of Would I Lie To You, but otherwise...
The boys dabble in the topic of SCENT this week. We finally find out the reason that Henning didn't play professional football at the highest level while Jake gets sentimental for the days of white dog mess on the streets. There is also a story about a career low-point for the German Comedy Ambassador. Back next week with another fascinating topic Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane

Is it a necessary evil or a game changing revolution for good? The boys don't quite see eye to eye on AI but there is some d...
A new year is a time to reflect and this episode finds the boys in a nostalgic mood. There is a lot of chat about the good old days when you paid a man when you wanted to use a car park and some grumpiness about apps. Jake remembers a fraudulent car park in London and Henning mentions the war at least once, but I think he got away with it alright. Next week will be Social Media or Scent... Please comment below as we will be giving away the prizes next week too...those signed bits of Eas...
The boys get serious in this one, but it will leave you wondering who the TWO stand-up comedians that Henning mentions actually are!

Merry Christmas and thanks for being with us in 2025. In this episode, it gets serious as Jake delves deep into his parenting experiences. Henning tells us how his local vicar hates Christmas and the podcast ends with a beautiful rendition of Silent Night, in German, that will set you right for the festive period whatever your attitude towards it might be.

There may be no way back as Henning & Jake come close to falling out over the topic of VEGANS ! Henning is one, Jake isn't. But the big takeaway from this episode is...what IS a burger? Back next week with a festive topic...PRESENTS...if the boys are still talking... Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane
If you could live with just one, would you chose Radio or TV...that and other questions partially answered in this episode of WWITM, all about RADIO. Jake and Henning are vague on the technology but are certainly ALL IN on the subject and there are very few diversions and even fewer conclusions. Coming up next VEGANS !

WARNING: ACTUAL INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE ABOUT YOGA IN THIS EPISODE With only some deviations about watching Hastings United and drinking, the boys break down YOGA, something they are both very much in favour of. Namaste! Next week...RADIO Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehninthemembrane
R.E.S.P.E.C.T find out what it means to me, asks Jake, while Henning muses that he wouldn't make a very good scaffolder. Jake offers up some EASTENDERS memorabilia for anyone who comments or reviews the podcast and there is some surprise about the things that people queue up to buy in shops in York and London. Jake also tells us "As you go through life you realise that no one has a clue what's going on" which is a mantra this podcast strictly follows. Follow the lads and suggest topics on I...
Henning and Jake go deep this week and consider the subject of DOUBT. It's a wide topic and the boys also talk Fear, Vertigo, Alton Towers, Wycombe Wanderers and selling tickets for the O2 Arena. Plus there is insight into the Germany University Education system and outrunning hungry tigers. What shall Henning and Jake discuss next week?

Henning and Jake take on the topic of TEETH in this episode of WWITM, and it's fun all the way as the dynamic duo talk about their fascinating history of dental work. We learn the German for 'Milk Teeth" and if you search our social channels you will see the clip where Henning thinks that gold teeth are great. There is also some debate on the pros and cons of 'Turkey Teeth' Next week there is no DOUBT about what the topic will be Follow the lads and suggest topics on Instagram and X @woodwehn...
Henning and Jake are back with another topic and it is COMICS ! The sort you read rather than stand-up... 2000 AD and Viz both get a massive thumbs up from the boys and there is much enthusiasm for the subject, and a bit of digression to ponder the Only Fools and Horses Convention in Hastings. Next week...TEETH Maybe we will do an episode on REVIEWS or COMMENTS in which case maybe you should review or comment below and if we do get around to it, we could read them out. Follo...
Henning and Jake are back with a deep dive into the topic of GARDENS...and they both love them! Henning attempts a joke about Kew Gardens which, much like the aircraft above the London horticultural wonder, flies well over Jake's head, and he vows to not try that again. NEXT WEEK the topic is a bit different, but the quest for common ground successfully continues as the lads celebrate their love of COMICS.
