Stand-Up

It's a hilarious meander around the mind of Matthew Crosby this week, from the University lecturer he was obsessed with, to his first fight; which in turn frightened his colleagues at the library. Just brace yourself for the last segment of the podcast, because Tom's lucky dip 'first' contains details which the more sensitive listener may find disturbing (but also very funny!)

Mise-en-scène with Matthew Crosby

What a smashing episode it is this week. Radio X presenter Toby Tarrant brought arm fulls of hilarious anecdotes, from baby sitting business cards to cruise ships full of obscure celebrities and even a very poorly judged, self administered haircut! Plus, Maisie & Tom dive into the lucky dip bucket for tales of gossip amongst the cleaners and a poorly judged message of affection scrawled on a school locker.

Moccasin Skateboarding with Toby Tarrant

They say that there's comedy in the most tragic of circumstances and Joanne's stories prove that this week. In an absolutely hilarious episode, Joanne talks Maisie & Tom through her experiences of young love and crucially, young loss. Brace yourself for first breakups, first kisses and so much more!
