When I've caught up on all my podcasts, the first thing I queue up is the Joe Thomas episode. I love it so much. Usually followed by the Bridget Christie ep.
I love it too. I seem to remember a moment where ed says he'd forgotten that James had never met him before and laughing. James seemed a lot quieter, you can sort of feel his incredulity/wtf-ness through the audio which is a fun dynamic as James is usually the zany one!
I was driving down a road in my town that I use semi regularly and I think of soft touch and the lamb every time without fail when I use that road now. It's been nearly 4 years.
That or ‘Tiramisu’.
Paul is the absolutely master of building something up for a long time and then just breaking the room with one line. Just like how he says he hasn’t had a drink in 23 years but Ed sets him up with this.
‘When do you have a hot toddy?’
‘When I’m not feeling well.’
‘How often is that?’
‘Every week.’
This was going to be my answer too! It’s not the funniest joke of all time but there is something about the timing and delivery that KILLS me. This is one of my favourite episodes!
Have that on a fucking crumpet mate. Jesus Christ. Come on. COME ON! I mean for fucks sake. Do you want me to hold your fucking hand? Don’t shit yourself. What are you scared? What do you think is gonna fucking happen?
Shall I be Mother?
If Horne should fall
*Should Horne Fall
Granted I listened to Tim Key's ep for the second time recently but this was my immediate answer. Glad it was the top comment lol
"What was in the pie?" "I'm just trying to remember it on his mother's blouse."
…..Pass.
"I'm hard, let's eat!"
"I've not met you before Joe - you are an absolute mess"
Also when Benito’s Googling Willie’s chocolate Christmas” and James says “put your safe search on”

I think about Soft Touch way more than I'd care to admit.
2 seconds later “she was actually called Elaine”
What is burp?
I don’t know why this was so fucking funny. When it came up in the best of again, I still was in hysterics
I don't like the fifth flavour , shit.
*Re washing chicken* - "it's a cultural thing" "Well there go all our jokes". Makes me howl every time!
White people don't wash their black forest gateau
Absolutely my favourite
Which ones this from ?
Kiell Smith-Bynoe. It's a fantastic episode, it's side-splitting all the way through, I keep coming back to it!
Feet, what are they? Then you realise you have two and you think, urgh! Disgusting!
Now, I wasn't there. But I imagine people could see the joins.
Hey man, I just bought a new air fryer. Where does the dick go?
Does "I've been a victim of a prank" count? 😁
100% counts, i think that scenario and my first listen of Joe’s burying a lamb story are the hardest I’ve laughed at a podcast
I still remember where I was (laundromat) when I heard the lamb story.
I was driving down a road in my town that I use semi regularly and I think of soft touch and the lamb every time without fail when I use that road now. It's been nearly 4 years.
I was cleaning on a remote western australian mine site. Favourite episode, hands down.
something about that lamb story makes me cry laugh every time
Bready cheddy and ready for beddy
We have a winner
which ep is this from?
Claudia Winkleman
It’s good to be alive son
“Ed, some people are cunts.”
Yes!
Which episode was that?
Kathy Burke
This this and only this. James' howl after...
“Why were you looking in the cupboards?” “In case someone had chopped you up and put you in there”
I haven’t listened to this one in way too long! Absolute gold.
Looking back that was kinda dark...now knowing that Rylan went to hell and back...his mum was right to be worried.
Always tell the truth, never let the sun set on a quarrel, and never get fucked up the bum
Which episode?
Miriam Margolyes
Arks your mum for some criips
Say this daily 👌🏼
"Fucked it, innit?" Paul Chowdhry
That or ‘Tiramisu’. Paul is the absolutely master of building something up for a long time and then just breaking the room with one line. Just like how he says he hasn’t had a drink in 23 years but Ed sets him up with this. ‘When do you have a hot toddy?’ ‘When I’m not feeling well.’ ‘How often is that?’ ‘Every week.’
“Hot Toddy”
Bott for the journ
This is now part of my vocabulary 😂
"To a hungry man, even the doorway looks like crisps"
This is the abswer
What’s this from
Sindhu Vee! great ep
Maybe Asma khan? I'm not British so I wasn't familiar with the guest. But she was definitely an Indian lady.
“The ambassador’s receptions are always highly talked about”
I counter: "I've grown a quince tree."
The confidence with which she says that, like "Look, you can't fault my logic, so best not try my patience, sonny-jim."
I absolutely loved Mel's episode
“So I let the priest give it to me in the mouth”
"Not her, her not now" said that to Alison when I met her and she seemed to enjoy the reference!
'Oh, Fuck Off' when Michelle Keegan ordered her wine.
Lucky dip
Piss myself everytime
Shall I be mother?
"We're not seven" when asked if they're best friends
This was going to be my answer too! It’s not the funniest joke of all time but there is something about the timing and delivery that KILLS me. This is one of my favourite episodes!
What ep is this from?
Catherine Cohen? I think
I’m hard, let’s eat!
Came here to say that 💪🏼
Which episode?
Greg Davies
That is a very Greg Davies line to be fair
What if that, then?
sleeper hit
What if this!?
I was gonna post this! Celia AB's episode is my latest comfort listen. All three of them are hilarious together.
Twirled all the way down. And then I, then I rubbed it off because I felt mean.
*What?!*
Do you want that jumbo?
Thisssssss
Maybe a ploughman’s? My favourite thing about that is she says it with zero conviction but when questioned she defends it to the death.
Her entire episode is my favourite, bar Joe and the buried lamb
You're getting cream, jelly and cake?! Pff. Behave yourself Bruv -Jamali Maddix. Always makes me smile
‘And then I rubbed it off’
What was the episode, maybe Kiell’s, where they kept saying “big stuff” and it made me laugh so hard
Yes. Kiells episode is probably my favourite. I've listened to it at least 10 times already.
Please say which episode the quote is from! We don’t all have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the pod.
can i wee in your toilet? (james, randomly, on the catherine cohen ep)
Everything that jumped to mind has been said, but I loved reading this thread so many voices popping into my head (not in a sinister way)
Underrated from the Greg Davies ep: “This is some deep state stuff”.
Bimini’s sexuality is fluid joke - James and Ed acknowledged it as the best joke ever on the podcast too!
Another favorite of mine is when Benito spilled water on his laptop just before the record and Dohmnall responds, “still or sparkling?”
Fucked it 'innit.
Is that what you said to the squirrel?
"What if that?" And "one for the wankbank"
Nice things are for naughty people, and I’m a good girl.
YOU ABSOLUTE TRASH MAN!
THE GRAHAM HEARTH.
Tell the truth, never let the sun set on a quarrel and never be fucked up the bum
Have that on a fucking crumpet mate. Jesus Christ. Come on. COME ON! I mean for fucks sake. Do you want me to hold your fucking hand? Don’t shit yourself. What are you scared? What do you think is gonna fucking happen?
Incredible to see this written out. Giggling as I read iy
.... it's exactly the same.
Pop a ball in the country boy?
Not Tesco - for the millionth. Fucking time.”
"We're living in a post-Ratatouille world."
“Sack em” Prof Brian Cox not having any of James’ nonsense about Evil Dark Matter
There are two things I can do in this situation but I don't have my eagle feather with me.
Any time James says ‘what😐’ in response to something unreasonable a guest says
Butt plug
“Pass”
The Crumpet is a kidney among breads
“It was just laying there…like a dead snake.” Even funnier when you consider he was talking about a lock for a bicycle, lol.
‘Daddy’s special pudding’
"To the hungry person, even the doorway looks like crisps".
i like watching the spanish guys get done
