Hello and welcome to the Taskmaster podcast. It's me, Ed Gamble, the host of it. We, of course,

talking about Series 8 still. Series 8 Episode 9, though, we're edging towards the end

of this series, edging closer and closer towards the 10 weeks which I've been dreading talking

about myself on Taskmaster. And I'm sure there's plenty of people out there who think I

probably am not dreading that because of my ego, but I am dreading it. Trust me. But today

we're talking about Series 8 Episode 9 with the brilliant Rebecca Lucy Taylor, aka

in the New Year's special and I had the time of my life. I think it's what we were talking

about before as well, that it may feel like the best thing because it's such a departure

from what you normally do. And it's just like, it was just like a couple of days of extreme

fun. If you had to do it every day of the week, it might be more of it.

Well, that's true. Exactly that. Yeah, I go on about it. Like, I've just literally been

saying, like, you can reach your goals and then the dream becomes work. It's like God
