The boys are back in town! Join us for a post Fringe catch-up where Obie has finally acquired a new story to tell! (But he still throws in some of the classics to keep the tradition alive.)
Our first remote (and sadly therefore sub-par on the audio quality front) episode sees us discuss the array of creepy places Kris has found himself staying in for the past week, while Obie makes his final fringe preparations!
A very sleep-deprived Kris shares how his second attempt at stand-up comedy went.. while Obie shares some stories that by this point I think we can start referring to as "The Classics."
Obie's intense business research has landed us in this situation where we have STOOPED to clickbaity titles.. Let's see how this goes. Remember to see Obie at the Fringe and Kris wherever he's hanging about..
Kris here, writing this at 3:34am.. Our landlord Ainsley joins us to eat spicy chicken and boggin jelly beans. Enjoy!
We’re back after another week of hiatus! Kris explains himself and why he’s been too busy to podcast of late.. and Obie’s been potting baws! This episode is dedicated to Tiny Wee Scott 💙 Follow Kris (and Tiny Wee Scott’s) band, The Fallen Hearts here: https://www.facebook.com/thefallenhearts https://www.instagram.com/the_fallen_hearts?igsh=MW82MXVqMWR0b2R0Zw==
The boys are back, Kris is recovered from being deed, and Obie's been swimming! What better way to reunite than to discuss a metaphor for processing emotions based on the industrial process of breaking down crude oil?
Glasgow comedy legend RAYMOND MEARNS joins us this week. He shares his experience of having a stroke during last year's Edinburgh Festival, and Obie attempts to resolve some 20 year old trauma..
