Summary

Ed Gamble is in the house! Ed chooses his most precious items to wang into the Wonderbox, which includes some food-based choices (as you might expect from one who foods as passionately as Ed). Come for the food, then stay for Ed waxing lyrical about his love of Mr Blobby.    Ed is touring next year, going hither and thither to some of the most delicious performance venues the UK can offer. If I wrote them all here it would take up a ridiculous amount of time and space, so for more information clicky clicky on the hyperlinky here: edgamble.co.uk   Ed's also got a book out just in time for Christmas, and if it's not a perfect present them I'm a giant toad with access to a keyboard (I'm not). It's called GLUTTON and you should consider buying it from an independent bookseller rather than Amazon. You'll feel better about yourself and delay the robot apocalypse by a few seconds.    Russell is currently hurtling up and down the country performing in theatres near you: if you're feeling saucy and fancy buying a ticket (why not treat yourself, you deserve it) get your sweet ass down to russell-howard.co.uk .   Producer: Dan Atkinson Line Producer: Daisy Knight Exec Producer: James Taylor Composer: Fat Lady Music Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello. Hello, I'm Russell Howard, and this is Wonderbox.

1:06.3

A Wonderbox is a place where you keep the things that remind you of the stuff you adore.

So I thought it would be cool to do a podcast where I ask some people what they put in their Wonderbox and have a chat about the most amazing moments of their lives.
