Lucy Mangan on Steve Martin Live (1979)

Comedy writers Jason Hazeley and Joel Morris talk to people who make comedy about something funny that they love. Guests pick something that makes them laugh. A book, a film, a tv show, a comic, a radio show, anything. Maybe we find out something about how comedy works, or we just giggle until we're finished. Both approaches are valid.

A taster of the NEW PODCAST from Rule Of Three's Joel Morris.
Many Rule of Three fans have been asking if there will be more episodes. The podcast has finished, though the archive will stay available for you to revisit favourite episodes.
But you may enjoy Comfort Blanket, taking the same deep-dive approach as RO3 and applying it to films, books, TV and records - including comedy topics and guests from the world of comedy. Guests pick the thing to which they return again and again for comfort, and explore why they love it, and why it never lets them down.
Here is a sample 'best of' episode, featuring highlights of the first two series.
