Summary

Here we are again. It's episode seven of the two shot podcast! Our guest this week is the actor, stand-up comedian and raconteur MICHAEL SMILEY. Craig & Producer Griff met with Smiley in London and after a not so successful coffee order for Smiley (don't ask!) we popped the kettle on, had our selves a brew (very successful!), sat down and dived in.You'll know Michael from playing the part of 'Tyres' in the acclaimed sitcom Spaced, and from his work with Ben Wheatley in Kill List, A Field In England and most recently Free Fire to name but a few. But of course this is the Two Shot Podcast so we like to delve a little deeper. We get to hear about his growing up in Northern Ireland, moving to London, becoming a father and turning from cyclist into a stand up and eventually an actor.It's a really great chat and one we're proud to add to our library here at Two Shot. We really hope you enjoy it. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard.
