Well done. You've sorted through the embarrassment of riches that is the modern podcast landscape

and found me Rob Briden on my podcast. In this series of Briden and I talk to among

others Harry Hill, Ben Elton, Charlotte Church, Steve Cougan and Dame Harriet Walter.

And that's just a few. We tend to chat for about 45 minutes to an hour never longer.

It's terrific conversation, reminiscent where appropriate and exchange of anecdotes.

So do join me Rob Briden wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes of Briden and

are available early and ad free on Amazon Music or by subscribing to Wondery Plus in Apple

Podcasts or the Wondery app.

This interview with Danica Patrick, I had no or basic, I had to say I had maybe an hour

or two's warning that this is going to happen. I didn't have any time. I was in the middle

of a bunch of meetings and our intrepid producer Lauren Efron managed to find out that Danica

Patrick was in town doing press talking about her new book, which is called Pretty Intense

in which she discusses meditation. So Lauren finds this out somehow finagles it so that

Danica can come in to our studio and I need to get my butt in the chair by 2.30 in order

to sit and talk to Danica Patrick about whom I know almost nothing other than she drives

fast cars and it seems really cool. So I showed up here not knowing much but Danica helped

me out. I admitted to her that I don't I don't fall sports. So I don't, man, again, I know

she is because she's a big figure in the culture. But I be on that. I don't really, I know

next to nothing. But she was as you will hear, I am fully honest with her about my thorough

going ignorance about her book and about her career. But she turns out to be at the light.

She's absolutely delightful and she's really interested in meditation. She talks about

it as some of our guests on this podcast occasionally do in a very different way than I do.
