0:04.0 | Lockdown, lockdown, I was going to say one, |
0:07.0 | lockdown, |
0:08.0 | lockdown there, which sounded weirdly |
0:24.3 | American and wanky of what most people think. I hope that you are not one of these drivers |
0:30.5 | that got held up by the new climate activist group Insulate Britain, which I do think as a name, |
0:36.9 | I mean, that could easily be a name adopted by racists as well. You know, it's insulate Britain could be, it's probably the worst ever name for a group of activists. But if you were, if you were held up in traffic, how you kept your temper, I will never know. And you can already hear chuckling away in the background there, what making, I think, his fourth appearance on the show, Leo? Yeah, something like that, yeah. Yeah, is Leo Kirst back to be a co-host? How are you, mate? Yeah, good, thanks, back from the Edinburgh Fringe, which was great, Edinburgh Fringe was really lucrative this year, but everybody got coronavirus. So loads of money on one hand, but on the other hand, my internal organs are being attacked by a bat virus. So you've had the vid, have you? I had, yeah, yeah, I had it, had it in Edinburgh.

2:01.0 | rubbish they are. |

2:17.0 | of alpha comedians, whereas in the US, |
2:20.1 | they do really well. Look at Chris Rock, Bill Barr, Chappelle, they're all, all the successful |
