Hello and welcome to the Taskmaster podcast. I've still got that fresh series feeling,

it's Ed Gamble here, feeling good, feeling sparkly, feeling new. We are talking about

Taskmaster series 15 episode 2. It's been in a great start to the series. Very excited

to speak to our special guest today. It's the first contestant we're speaking to. We are

speaking to the wonderful Kyle Smith-Bino. Absolutely love Kyle. He's brilliant on Taskmaster. Can't

wait to chat to him about this episode about Taskmaster in general. Some occasional sound

issues on this due to where Kyle was. We move locations a few times. It's all in the

cut and thrust of recording podcasts remotely. It's still a brilliant chat. I hope you enjoy

it. This is Taskmaster series 15 episode 2 with Kyle Smith-Bino.

Welcome Kyle to the Taskmaster podcast. You're very, very understated reaction from you. I came

in big energy and you've immediately undercut me there. You've pulled the rug from my feet. I like

balance. You like balance and also you're in an office and I don't feel like you want to go too

wild on the energy just in case any potential employers hit you. It's the end of the day,

but I don't need that. They've had me running around here all lunchtime. I don't need me

carrying on. We're very excited to have you on the Taskmaster podcast and it's great watching

you on Taskmaster. I've known you for a bit Kyle and I think you're absolutely equiting yourself

in the way that I expected on the show. I'm interested in what that means. Well, we'll get into it.

I will let listeners know that I recently posted a video that someone had made of me getting

quite angry and indignant throughout the Taskmaster process when I was on it and you simply

responded with the shaking hands emoji. Yes. Which kind of, I mean, sums up so far a little bit of

what you're like on the show. I think more than any contestant I've ever seen, if you are given

a low mark, you seem absolutely perplexed and also very angry about it. Is that fair?
