  • Episode 43: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 43: The Gary Lineker Not So Complicated Childhood.

    A short Wokie Pod about Gary Lineker when he claimed he suffered racist abuse because of his dark-ish skin. Obviously like a reverse Talk TV and Fox News I was TRIGGERED… and then did my own honest response.

    Please note this is a parody and we are big fans of Gary Lineker

  • Episode 41: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 41: The Same old Same Nothing Changes American Gun Laws

    Far from trivialising the shocking tragedies in recent American history Wokie is putting his absurd point of view to an incredibly absurd situation. We fully expect more apathy towards gun laws and push back from the lobbyists… have fun…  

    Show Notes

  • Episode 39: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 39: That Will Smith thing, Panic Attacks and Live Podcasts.

    In this latest podcast after our hiatus, Wokie and Egg White discuss the Will Smith dry slap he got (Frank Butcher style), Jacob Rees Mogg, Ricky Gervais not getting a slap and getting panic attacks in Ikea. And to also be Meta we discuss the unique phenomenon that is Live Podcasts. Watching people chat sh!t on stage and paying for the privilege.
    Topical... just like our cream.

    Shownotes:

    In case you were too busy to watch the slap here it is for your gruesome enjoyment:

  • Episode 38: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 38: Jim Davidson Sitcom, VHS Porn and the Michael Bay Bias Machine

    In a rather fruity podcast we lower common decency standards to talk about VHS porn and its illogical successor Interactive DVD Porn. There is an update on the Jim Davidson sitcom and our ambition to make it the British Friends. How can any podcast end without mentioning the extremely right wing Skinny John Milius and his extremely biased moviemaking machine. This is the macho man who walked off the stage at a television presentation because the autocue wasn’t working. Enjoy more irreverent humour

    Shownotes

    We constantly bring up the madcap sitcom Curry and Chips starring Spike Milligan so watch a clip and see pre woke/cancel weirdness here.

  • Episode 37: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 37: Diversity Awards, Veggie Pret, Woke Cuisine and Drill Karaoke

    In this podcast we delve into the insanity of the Diversity/ Non Diversity awards season where Ant and Dec and Wossie win year in and year out, Veggie Pret and other insane culinary choices causing food apartheid. We also can’t pass on the opportunity of mentioning Drill Karaoke… quite why people would do this for fun but then again stranger things have happened.

    Ant and Dec win 20 years running. Sounds like the competition with the white voters are slim.

    Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 36: Jim (Davidson) or Jim(Davidson) Quiz Special.

    In this episode we break down the recent Jimmy Carr Netflix Special: His Dark Materials and the difference in his edgy delivery compared to Jim Davidson’s old school ways on the same controversial style.  We try to prove this point with a superb quiz: Jim or Jimmy where Egg says a comedic one liner and Wokie has to find out if it was said by Jimmy Carr or Jim Davidson. Guess who ends up with egg on his his face? Clue: not Egg White ironically. 

    We also have some post pod inserts by Egg White clarifying certain things because afterthought is a 
    b!tch.

  • Episode 35: Woke Asian Guy and Egg White Ep 35: Jerry Seinfeld and the Jim Davidson Sitcom

    In this wide ranging rant, Woke Asian Guy starts off with what the 90’s American sitcoms were like regarding diversity and uses Seinfeld as an example. We see how hard it was when the actors don’t look like the cast of Friends and how their stories were written. We then segue into the mistaken scientific fact that Squirrels are practically human… horse poo we say and we break it down to show you. And FINALLY! We have an audio trailer of Jim Davidson the sitcom titled: Jim Davidson is my Bigoted Uncle and Lives in my Attic. Rolls off the tongue right? Ok, we love the Headspace app but we have a niche market we can serve. Listen to find out

    All that and still enough time to add some Egg White esoterica.

    Oh and Spike Milligan.. the absolute G.O.A.T mentalist

    Shownotes:

    We all know Seinfeld is on Netflix and considering they spent 500 million quid on it the could have done the aspect ratio a lot better:
    https://www.gq.com/story/seinfeld-netflix-episodes-cropped-widescreen-ratio

    Anyone a certain age will love the wonderfully eccentric Spike Milligan but there were some things he did which were clearly questionable like Curry and Chips. Read the notorious history below and also fact check: His character was called Kevin O’ Grady. 
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry_and_Chips

    The actor who played the Pakistani restauranteur, Brian George is the hardest working man in show business. Click the link to see what he has done and as yourself… can you do the same Jerry Seinfeld?
