Our guest this week is Romesh Rangathan! And his subgenre is… BRB Crying.

Will Romesh deliver a beautiful and moving film pitch that makes Jimmy break down crying? Or will his idea be a fever dream of orangutans, ancient curses and having sex in front of animals? Listen in to find out!

Listen on all podcast platforms and watch on the Netflix is a Joke YouTube Channel.

The Big Pitch is a co-production by Netflix and BBC Studios Audio.
