Summary
#425 Bearded Lady - Rich’s very slow take-over of TV continues and he has found a cheap and effective new drug, his guest is the man who stood in for Al Murray and who is now standing in for Nick Mohammed, (but he’s not taking it personally) Paul Chowdhry. They discuss facial hair, what constitutes a family friendly TV comic and whether edgy comedians are actually less controversial than the people on air, whether it’s possible to cancel someone who is not on TV, the problems facing comics if Matt Hancock becomes a light entertainer and the differences between a comic on and off stage and whether Chowdhry comes with a crust of fragility.
