Summary

Adam talks with Irish comedian David O'Doherty in front of a live audience at the 2018 Dublin podcast festival, in an episode rescued from Adam's shamefully disorganised, dusty pod vault. As well as delicious vintage waffle about email scams, cycling, music, comedy inspirations and puking on stage, David sings a couple of songs and is generally terrific company. Plus Adam shares some cultural recommendations.

Conversation recorded live at Vicar Street, Dublin on 3 October 2018
