| 0:30.9 | Hello, I'm Russell Howard, welcome to Wonderbox. |
| 0:41.8 | Now we've got one of Britain's most exciting live stand-up comedians. |
| 0:45.5 | He's the first British Asian comic to sell out Wembley Arena. |
| 0:49.2 | It's of course Paul Chowdrey and this is his wonder box. |
| 1:01.0 | So here we are with the fantastic Paul Chowdry. Paul, lovely to meet you. |
| 1:03.0 | Well, it's nice to see you. I've heard a lot about you over the years. |
| 1:06.0 | It's nice to see you. It's kind of, I feel a bit shitty because we normally, you, me and Greg do a meal every so often. |
| 1:11.9 | I haven't seen you prejudice. |
| 1:13.1 | I think the last time I discussed that was on the off-menu podcast. What were you saying? Were you saying about our meals? I just talked about, yeah, how we went out for dinner together, me, Greg and Russell. Yeah, and it's always a bit of a battle because Greg's a big lad. So it's a bit like when there's sort of like a big puppy in the pack. |
| 1:29.0 | I don't know if you feel this, but as the smaller dogs, you've kind of got to get your hands in there before he eats his fill. Yeah, but you guys drink and I don't drink, and then we go three ways, and then I'm paying for the drink. Well, that's the first time you brought that up. I mean you need to discuss that with them. Okay. Well, we've had a few meals, but you're right. |
| 2:17.6 | Oh. Well, that's the first time you brought that up. I mean you're meaning to discuss that with them. Okay. Well, I'm fucking out. We've had a few meals, but you're right. I'm down. Oh, you're way down. I'm way down. Yeah, just me and Greg have a drink. So presumably, well, that explains why you get angry as the even progressive. It explains why I get angry when the bill turns up. I might start, you've actually made me start drinking. Well, exactly. If you want to turn a profit. But for me to break even now, I'd have to become an alcoholic. I can know. It's the only way. Because we've really put it away. Well, how about the next meal, me and Greg will pay for it. Oh, thanks, man. And that'll probably get you up. |
| 2:36.4 | It will be... I don't know, I think you're still way down, man. Seeing as I'm the... Yeah, I'm way down, like, metaphorically, well, career-wise, compared to these guys. Hey, come on, come on now. You've done Wembley Arena? Once. Yeah, but you've still done it. And that was when I was taking Moriah Carey's bags to her car. |
| 2:53.8 | Behave yourself, listen. You can be self-deprecating all you like. That's a true story, actually. What you took Mariah Carey's bags? When I was at uni, I derig the stage Mariah Carey show. And then I ended up taking her bags to the car. and I thought one day I'm going to sell this place out and then I sold out the venue. |
| 3:25.6 | So all she wanted for Christmas was you was me taking her bags to the car would be a great video, were it? Were you excited? Did you ever look what was in her bag? Yeah, I just looked at him and said that dildos in the shit. That's on her rider. Do you know, the saddest rider I ever saw was, do you ever do that gig in Bournemouth? It was like a strip club that Jeff Whiting was booking for a while. Did you ever do that, Dan? Yeah, but not as a comedian. I think I saw you there. I remember going there and opening the fridge in the green room. |
| 3:28.2 | And there were three dildos in the fridge. And it was so heartbreaking because you're like, it's the idea that somebody's gone, |
| 3:32.3 | hey, my dildos better not be room temperature because I'm a professional. |
| 3:37.3 | It was so sad. |
| 3:39.0 | Do you know what I mean? |
