Chris and and the gang engage in funny discussion about the "huge news" that EU regulations might force British marmalade to be renamed "citrus marmalade".
The conversation goes through witty observations on British nationalism, the absurdity of food bureaucracy, and comedic tangents involving Paddington Bear and the "philosophy of chutney".

So now the question is:
are these bits… or career-ending decisions?

Tell us what we should try and what should absolutely never leave this podcast.

Chris, Mauricio, and Colman review the bizarre true story of a man arrested for tattooing infants. The group discusses the challenges of "fresh material," including how to handle annoying audience members and how to bridge topics like home tattoo kits found on Amazon.

Mauricio brings his work-in-progress stand-up bit about skateboarders to the table, inspired by Barcelona's crackdown on skaters at the MACBA museum. The crew workshopping the material live, debating whether to double down on the hate or keep walking it back, and riffing on everything from Karen vigilantes to the philosophical difference between "true hate" and "real hate." It gets dark, it gets funny, and somehow ends with a bus, a body, and a very specific kind of joy.

Colman, Mauricio and Chris try to make sense of the US/Iran crisis and end up questioning everything from Trump's toxic ex energy to why MAGA only cares about war when gas prices go up.
A conversation about living in a world with no good guys left, no heroes worth following, and potholes that still haven't been fixed.
Funny, honest, and occasionally a little dangerous.

Things are going off the rails!

Trump pursuing a career in stand-up, and Chris feels sorry for him.
Colman mourns the death of fellow buff dude and ginger Chuck Norris.
Mauricio is deconstructing and reverse-engineering the Man-O-sphere!

Things were already getting weird.

We had “R*pe the Monkey”, “Adolf Trump”… and then Colman casually hit us with this gem:

“I used to castrate cows.”

It's hard to move on from that!!

In this week's current affairs episode we’re reviewing a couple of bits we took to the stage — Mauricio defending the bold position that earthquakes might actually be the best natural disaster, and my set about the bizarre Olympic helmet ban.

Meanwhile Colman has been off being productive and winning a TV pitch, but still found time to explain (with great enthusiasm) why The Traitors is the greatest show ever made.

Watch the sets, see what worked, what didn’t, and let us know what you think — your comments genuinely help us shape the material.

Hey, Colman here, so this episode was recorded with all of us in the same space which was nice. We covered a few current affairs topics, with Mauricio throwing a few digs at Chris along the way.
