I'm So Not Over It

The Battle For Baywatch: With SIKISA (Part 2)


Listen Later

This is Part 2 of Esyllt and Stuart's Baywatch Nights themed chat with the brilliant SIKISA so if you haven't heard it yet, make sure you listen to Part 1 or you'll be confused (although, it's about Baywatch Nights so just like when Ken Cheng tackled it, you'll probably be confused, whatever).


In 2021, comedians Esyllt Sears and Stuart Laws bonded over their love of Baywatch - the 1990s action-drama series following a team of lifeguards in slow motion.


But trouble was brewing. Which version of the show was superior? Esyllt maintained it was the original Baywatch. Stu insisted it was Baywatch Nights - the Hasselhoff-led detective/sci-fi spin-off series.


The Battle Of Baywatch had begun - and was subsequently fought across two, unbroadcast, pilot podcast episodes. In each edition, a guest was to be presented with two episodes of the show - Esyllt would select an edition of the original Baywatch while Stuart would source a top-notch edition of Baywatch Nights. Having discussed the themes and montages, the comedian would then be encouraged to pick a side and announce which series they thought was superior.


Despite repeated texts and Whatsapps asking questions like "what, you still have these?", "sorry, what did I say?" and "are you really sure I won't be cancelled?", The Xennial Dome is proud to present these long-lost tapes. This is the second part of the final episode with the fantastic stand-up comedian, Sikisa - concentrating on Stuart's Baywatch Nights pick - Space Spore.
