The Dave Weekly

It's our second biweekly from the Fringe Festival and we're still loving the liberal lifestyle. Presenter Ben lures our first-ever podcast guests, Peacock and Gamble, back to his Edinburgh hotel room, surreal stand-up Simon Munnery talks about his conceptual comedy restaurant and Kiwi comic Jarred Christmas discusses the tricky art of compering.

We’ve got a trio of Fringe favourites for our first bi-weekly podcast. Festival veteran and self-proclaimed ‘King of Edinburgh’ Richard Herring chats with presenter Ben about his Fringe experiences before moving, inevitably, towards his manhood and new show ‘Talking Cock: The Second Coming’. Plus Matt Forde swings by to add a touch of highbrow political debate and frizzy-haired funnyman Carl Donnelly talks glasses and gravy. Next witty bulletin (witulletin?) from the Festival Fringe is this Friday with guests including Simon Munnery and Peacock & Gamble. Love you! Bye!

With the comedy behemoth that is the Edinburgh Fringe kicking off, we’ve got a special preview show with four must-see comics at the Festival. We find out about Tony Law’s faulty wiring, Marlon Davis explains how his last Edinburgh show got him fired, Sara Pascoe reveals why ‘Sara Pascoe tits’ is her most popular Google search (highbrow stuff this, innit?) and presenter Ben goes head to head with ‘grumpy young man’ Josh Widdicombe. And watch out next week as the bi-curious Dave podcast goes bi-weekly at the Fringe.

Flight of the Conchords star Rhys Darby flies in to Dave towers (not literally) to chat about frisbees, UFOs, retro sound effects and a smattering of other interesting trivia. Ben also hosts Nick Helm in his beautiful south London flat wearing just his dressing gown with lusty novellas on his mind.

Hold onto your hats, The Dave Weekly is officially back on the airwaves, hurrah! Coming to your little pods this week we have a real treat in store. Mark Watson and David O'Doherty join us direct from the main stage to discuss flea circuses, ping pong and chorizo.

Series Two is almost upon us and boy are we excited. This brand spanking new series is going to blow your socks off with witty banter and some of the best interviews you've ever heard. Hows that for a sales pitch?!

It’s the final episode of The Dave Weekly – Daily from Leicester and it’s a pleasure to bring you the wonderful Paul Foot, who, as usual, chats absolute rubbish in the name of comedy. Apparently he has a gas powered vagina. Who knew? We also catch-up with Marcus Birdman slap-bang in the middle of a gig and our very own Ben Shires takes on the advice of the professionals and performs his very own stand-up set.

Richard Herring ‘King of Edinburgh’, Lord of Leicester (possibly) graces us with his lordly presence to talk about love and marriage. There’s no mention of a horse and carriage but there is comedy by the cart load.

Rob Beckett, one of the cheekiest of all the comedy chappies joins us to discuss stag-dos, not being Micky Flanigan and not winning the Leicester Comedian of the year. We also catch-up with David Morgan, Gareth Richards and Luke Benson to chat about Comedy in the Dark and the challenges it involves.

For the first time in his life Ben Shires can’t get a word in edgeways as Greg Davies and his famous and funny friends join us after their Leicester benefit gig for The Stroke Association to discuss a “mashed up plumb crumble penis”, M.A.S.H and Rhod Gilbert being a bellend.
