It's comedy festival time, I'm under the pump, but I found time to talk to private schoolboy LUKE HEGGIE and first-timer JESS FUCHS!

We go deep behind the scenes at Thai nightclub Mamao Club; how much is a bottle of beer worth?; beach wees; Jess's dyslexia; my idea for a new airport lounge; plus I've bought 130 of something.

Plus: Blanket didn't get me a birthday present.

Oh my word, I'm joined by CAMERON JAMES and first-timer ROHAN GANJU for an absolutely grotty (but very, very funny) episode.

There's a massive update on my psycho neighbours; we learn all about Rohan's very interesting current job, as well as his less-fictional previous jobs; I get to tee off about The White Lotus; Blanket's done an extremely interesting drawing; Cam tells us an insane story about sexting a girlfriend; and Rohan's sat on a plane next to someone with the most CRAZY conspiracy theory. It's so good.

Plus: Blanket has just blown her nose.

DANIELLE WALKER and NICK CARR join me in the Basement Comedy Club green room this week a few hours after I've just flown in from England and boy, is my brain tired/f*cked. We talk Liverpool (the city), plus my methodical plan of how to beat jetlag (and how it failed magnificently), heaps of airport talk, and of course: Danielle's family and weird stories about whatever. Plus: Blanket is overjoyed by King Daddy's return (or the opposite).

Maybe the cops should've confiscated more of my pills.
