35. 'You Gotta Have a High Goo Threshold' - The Dad Who Eats Fried Cactus (ft. Alejandra Escamilla)

Do you want to know how to have high self esteem? Let Francisco teach you! In this episode we conclue our trilogy with Cardiff based Mexican standup Alejandra Escamilla and her legendary dad. We discuss his very on brand favourite food, and the difficulties of coping with the gooeyness of a slice of fried cactus, as well as some more wisdom from his life including his supremely confident answer to "how are you?" that will instantly cure you of your social anxiety! Along the way we discuss the celebrities he irrationally despises, come up with our own filth-ridden Bad Bunny lyrics, and plug our upcoming Patreon where we rank every South Wales comedian from hero to hack!We also hear some excellent stories including the time he tricked tourists into thinking he was chinese, how he asked a 5 year old Alejandra to pull the plug on him if he ever got a 'strange disease', and his bizarre quest to discover the most obcure cover versions of his favourite songs, from thrash metal Beatles covers to lullaby rickrolls. Fianlly, we cover Alejandra's parents morbid obsession with their own funeral plans and Fransiscos desire to open the floodgates for all the hot babes who'll want to wish him well in the next life.ABOUT OUR GUEST: Alejandra Escamilla is 'just a Mexican woman collecting embarrassing stories in different countries and turning them into stand-up. Halfway to my 100th gig and still making questionable life choices for the plot'.Follow her @alestandupcomedy on Instagramand @PinkuPanik on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/pinkupanik)Got a dad story for us?Email: ⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠Everything else: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/dadtouchpod⁠⁠⁠Logo Design: Alice Evans (@Alicewithapen)Music by: Gino Dada, Tatamusic & Moonpub
