another unfunny comic
Thanks for this. Love Eddie and loved seeing into his ambitious life
a true inspiration is our Eddie #greenmonkey
So loved listening to this as someone who has struggled with the transgender/gender fluid. Thanks so much for being so honest and vulnerable. Getting back into running so thanks for the inspiration, and can't wait to raise money for hospice whilst pounding the roads.
our own Forrest Gump. what a legend!
To say that Europe and the USA are the same in kinds of countries or states, is absolutely dead wrong. The USA, being a melting pot, had never to deal with mass and illegal immigration that some European countries. Too many cultures that don't fit the European one, are involved. You can't have multiple cultures and believes live in one house, in a small controlled migration and time frame.

ffs Eddie and joe. either call it great Britain or the name of the 4 countries. england is not Britain! educate yourself about Britain Joe, there's Cymru(Wales) Scotland and northern Ireland and then england. I enjoy the show but ignorance is ugly!!
nice one
Thank you a lot Joe, for having this guy on. I'm in like the exact same position as him as far as transgender (girl mode and guy mode) and it helps greatly to see that it's like normal. I didn't want to transition either because of the guy mode part, and now I see I don't have to. And I don't have to worry about it so much either. Thank you, you two.
Awesome inspiration
YORKSHIRE
think he did all of his runs as a man. If he did it as a woman I bet records would have been broken
This dudes famous special made me piss my pants back in the day. Just great on the radio format because of his speech cadence, just unique. Never realized his desire to do special forces and his ridiculous amount of marathons all over the world, dude walks the walk, thats some David Goggins shit. I get some people are turned off from the trans deal but it felt like it was 5% of the interview like yeah, thats me but whatever. I thought this was a great listen, very interesting.
Joe why do u keep talking about trans and gays so much lately?? dont take me wrong. this guy/lady seems to have a great heart and a great person..and I have no problem if that's who someone is. But I don't want to hear about it every time I listen to u, which has been the case lately...stop it. have the bring back the scientists and shit
great show!
For a supposed free thinker, he has such a narrow selfish view politically under the guise of bring so progressive.
Joe's 5 minute rant on peace and love was sooooo long. Peace and love is necessary, excellent, got it, move on.
I have three issues. 1). Eddie is a wonderful actor, but can you consider him trans, I think of him more drag 2). why didn't Joe bring up his distaste for transmen competing in woman's sports 3). to say that no one is fighting wars to not conquer is very naive,. what do you think Russia does or isis.
