Summary

Never knew David O’Doherty used to be an underground DJ? It’s all here. Russell and David sit down in front of a live studio audience at the Edinburgh Fringe (yes, it was a few weeks ago but we recorded a few, OK!?) to discuss David’s DJ hinterland. Also there is when a 13 year old David offered to cycle around Ireland as a newspaper think-piece, and he tells Russell about hanging out with Taika Waititi. This episode bounces along with more energy than a demented space-hopper, with a huge amount of laughs and fascinating stories from David’s wonderful brain. You wanna get more David? You can gets you more David for HE IS ON TOUR! His Edinburgh show was brilliant (as always). It’s called Ready Steady David O’Doherty. You could get tickets from Ticketmaster, but those guys are firmly on the naughty step at the moment. Better off - use this link HERE to go to David’s personal website and get linked directly to the theatres. It’ll probably save you some dollar too, but don’t quote me on that because I haven’t checked and it goes way beyond the call of duty for me to check all those theatre prices, cross-check with the Goliaths and then work out the difference all to save you 50p. I mean I like you, but we’ve got to have some boundaries. Russell is packing his moose-repellent spray for his is touring in Canada in mere moments. This September, if you’re Canadian, heck even if you’re not but you happen to be there, check out the dates HERE - in one of the last opportunities to see his latest smash hit tour show live. We shall see you, hear you and smell you next week. So long cowboy/girl/child/baby.

0:00.0	Hello everybody. My guest today is an icon of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. He won the
0:13.3	main comedy award in 2013. Never look back, Dan. He's returned pretty much every year. He's done
0:20.3	24 shows at the Edinburgh Festival. He's returned pretty much every year. He's done 24 shows at the Edinburgh Festival.
0:23.9	He is David O'Doccatee.
0:25.3	This is live from the fringe.

0:33.2	Hello.
0:38.3	Well, well, well.
0:40.3	Hello everybody, thanks for coming.
0:43.3	How did you get this spot?
0:45.3	Because Mr. Bubble is normally in here.
0:48.3	Yeah, to fill the audience listening in at home.
0:51.3	Before this show, there is a man called Mr. Bubbles who does a performance,
0:55.8	which is why the stage is a wee bit sticky. And I presume that's why it's sticking. I don't
1:02.1	know what Bubbles does. All I know is that the audience is like, not the audience, the people
1:07.0	that work here have to clean up Bubbles his show. Yesterday I heard a big discussion as to whether Mr. Bubbles would mind if the AC was on,
1:16.6	because the AC could absolutely ruin his entire show.
1:19.6	Suddenly...
1:20.6	Mr. Bubbles is such an elusive nickname, isn't it?
1:24.6	What's when his real name is? Like Brian. But I bet when he's in show mode, he's bubbles. Anyways, thanks for coming. It's going to be a lot of fun. We normally do a lovely preamble where we have a 10 minute chat, but this is going to be an hour of red hot, tight wonder. So, with... Yes. So, with that in mind, what is the first thing that you, David Otockty, would like to put in your
1:47.6	Wonderbox?
1:48.6	Well, I am back in Edinburgh now, which I have done most years since you and I met in 1999.
