Worst Foot Forward

One more episode in our mini-hiatus due to Barry's work schedule as the boys get together for a good old natter about episodes 61-65 and pick their World's Best for the topics covered in those shows. We revisit our discussions with Steven Colgyn about Policemen, Tez Ilyas about Centre Backs, Jon Dryden Taylor about Opening Ceremonies, Tulip Sidiq MP about Fashion Accessories and A Gay and a Nongay about Friendship. There's the usual grab-bag of trivia and tall tales with stories of giant scissors, Mr T and two adorable Jewish comedians.

We continue our little hiatus from recording (largely thanks to Barry's eminently-over-employed status) with some more clips from the back catalogue. We have dug out some footage that didn't quite make the edit of 5 episodes from the start of 2020 but we felt were worth hanging onto for a rainy day. They feature guests Vicki Pipe, Katy Schutte, David Atherton, Lucy Jane Atkinson and Mikey Brett, and they look at topics as diverse as The Great Succulent Invasion, sinks full of ice-cream and why directing a play is very much like managing a football team. Normal service should be resumed next week!

Holding positions people! Due to Barry's enormously crammed work diary and Ben's inability to source a charismatic, trivia-loving Irish homosexual at short notice, we've had to release a podcast palette cleanser with some of our favourite snippets that didn't make the final cut.

Enjoy this week's sorbet full of spies, Vikings and sausages.

Inspired by the timeless glory of the sporting jamboree going on in Tokyo right now, Ben and Barry dive head first (with a triple twist and a confused pike) into the more leftfield history of the Olympic Games. They take a short look at the international alternatives to the great games before turning their attention to the idiosyncratic, drunken and farcical antecedents of the modern Olympiad.

Pew pew, pew-pew-pew, laser sounds etc! It's time for Worst Foot Forward to go sub-atomic, intergalactic and beyond the realms of possibility with an episode all about the World's Worst Sci-Fi Movie. We are joined by comedian, streamer and sci-fi expert Rik Carranza who directs his phasers to the stunningly bad Battlefield Earth. Barry digs up an animated film that tanked a Hollywood studio while Ben goes to the shores of the Black Sea in search of Wookiees.

Open wide, hold your nose and steady yourself to slop this week's episode down the hatch. Joined by poet Joshua Seigal we uncover the grimmest ingredients in history. Inside the Worst Foot cauldron this week are anchovies, Virgin Boy Eggs, gelatine, fish guts and lots and lots of snakes. With a side of fashionable potatoes.

This episode belongs in a museum, preferably one of those that comes alive after dark with hilarious consequences. Returning to the show as our second ever three-time guest is actual archaeologist Paul Duncan McGarrity and what better subject to ask him to unearth than the World's Worst Archaeologist. There are tales of cheating on panel shows, dogs going digging and Nazis in search of Atlantis.

We're back with another sweet WFF duet as Barry and Ben bring a bit of positivity into your ears. They head back to Eps 56-60 and pick out their favourite examples of the best tea, punishment, day, element and family tradition in history. Superstars this week include a spat between John Ruskin and James Whistler, an alchemical laxative heirloom and an infamous Italian juggler. There is also a lot of righteous and justified hatred of Bryan Ferry.

Welcome to the house of fun on Worst Foot Forward as this week we take a rollercoaster ride with YouTuber and presenter Tom Scott in the World's Worst Theme Park. Tom expands on the theoretical awfulness of a park that doesn't even exist yet - and probably never will. Meanwhile, Ben spends much of his time with injury-claims lawyers and Barry has been googling 'sex theme parks'. Again.

New balls please! With a summer of sport upon us - among the heavy showers - the British summer tradition that is the Wimbledon Tennis Championship is returning after a Covid-induced hiatus. So sip your Pimms, swirl your strawberries and cream, and let Barry lead you through a round-robin of ball-sniffing, trend-setting and never-endings. If you're game, get set - we're a match!
