Tim Key: Trying The World’s HOTTEST Curry & Struggling With Panel Shows
Tim Key: Trying The World’s HOTTEST Curry & Struggling With Panel ShowsDescription
Comedian, actor and writer Tim Key joins Romesh for an off-kilter conversation about bombing on panel shows, the moment Susie Dent had to whisper “it’s fine”, a failed Taskmaster reunion in Cologne, and the wrist-breaking dangers of comedians’ football.
He also gives the scoop on his new role in The Office “spin-off” The Paper, the LA spiral that led to his latest poetry collection, and the emotional side of fear, fame and performing.
Plus, Romesh and the team blindside Tim with a phaal curry… sweat, tears, regret.
