S9 Ep326 Usual Drivel - Not one but two Chrissy songs

It's the run up to the surf lesson: Joe's been on holiday to California and David wants to know all about it. Joe confesses he struggles to say LAX as it's embarrasing and babbles on about the Hollywood Sign, seeing Jared Leto's house and the 9 lane traffic on the freeway. Eventually they get to the meaty bit when Joe reveals he's had a surfing lesson at the end of the holiday. David is all ears. The discussion turns to mid life crisis's and Joe's surfboard being akin to David's new guitar. Joe tells David that he felt empowered having his surf lesson but now just feels embarrassed.

It’s the second part of Joe and David’s mega-chat with last week’s surprise guest Lee Mack. Picking things up again, the talk turns to game shows, Lee’s brilliant 1% Club, Joe and David’s Pyramind idea and pitching new shows. Then it’s back to sit-coms with learning lines, script read-throughs, viewing figures, the challenges of recording with a live audience and casting David as a policeman in Not Going Out. There’s also some reminiscing about the 90’s stand-up scene, Lee’s early days starting out in comedy, the pleasures of podding and bizarrely, some damaged cushions that Joe and David begrudgingly agree to replace. Part one of this Ep with Lee Mack (ep 306) released 18th Oct 2023 if you want to listen to that first !

Off to a flying start, Joe has returned from holiday complaining about his ailments and then has trouble with his wifi booster. They talk about a recent visit to Spotify HQ, meeting Ben Foster and how nice the pulled pork was. David's intent on telling Joe about his window cleaning expertise again and when to use a chamois or a squeegee. They ponder over why they're not very snappy at podcasting and reflect on an old interview with James Acaster. They put it down to having slow brain speeds. David shows Joe his new guitar.

It’s David’s turn to go on location for the pod and in spite of the very shaky G4 signal, he’s talking Joe to one of his favourite places - Dartmoor. Starting off at Widecombe in the Moor, he jumps in the Beech Bomber (or should that be Moor Bomber?) and heads to one of Dartmoor’s most famous landmarks, the Haytor Rocks. There he plans to hike up to the top of the hill and show Joe the spectacular views. Beautiful!

Joe’s lined up another surprise guest for David, so he’s back in the spinny chair and really feeling the nerves again. As usual, he desperately tries to guess who it’ll be and this time, after so many failed attempts, may actually have got it right?! Stay tuned to find out who the extra special guest is - so special in fact that we had to make it a two parter.

Joe thinks the world of scamming would be a great topic to discuss but David’s not really interest. So they quickly move onto television - programs they’ve seen recently, wanting to watch things live and struggling with too much choice. But then David remembers he hasn’t finished telling Joe about his Devon hiking holiday - and picks up where he left off last week. We may or may not get to the end of this tale… Follow Chatabix on Twitter & Instagram: twitter.com/chatabix1 www.instagram.com/chatabixpodcast/ Patreon for early access to our eps: https://www.patreon.com/chatabix Crunchy fresh tees and hoodies: https://chatabixshop.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Our favourite national treasure Natalie Cassidy is back on the pod, but David’s had a late night and is really tired. So they kick things off chatting about napping, snoring, bed times and eye masks too. Moving on from sleep, Nat suggests a wonderful idea for a Chatabix Christmas party, tells them about a traumatic experience she had presenting This Morning, has some visitors in her garden and sends over a copy of her poem to read out at the end of the show. But that’s not before the three of them workshop a great idea for a new TV sit-com - The Blueberries.

Star of stage and screen Russell Tovey is today’s very special guest. Joe and David immediately take the opportunity to ask Russell how to be good at acting and he suggests all three of them have imposter syndrome. They discuss filming Him And Her, learning lines, overcoming nerves, lying on your résumé and having to have stunt double legs. They also talk about art and how to enjoy making it, which makes David awkward but Joe pulls out his parrot painting. Then Russell tells them all about his brilliant art podcast and some of his current favourite artists too.
