S4:E6 Time for...Comedy (featuring Dom Joly)
from Limited Time Only
We've reached the final episode of Season 4! Can you believe it?! But in THIS final, we're all winners. Susie & Esther discuss comedy - with a natter about what makes them laugh. And a few fart jokes. They may appear to be intelligent, mature and sophisticated (ahem) but they love a dollop of good old toilet humour. And rude words.This ep's special guest is multi award winning British comedian and writer, DOM JOLY.Dom's route to comedy legend is a surprising and fascinating one. Born in Beirut, Dom went to school alongside Osama Bin Laden. Yes you heard that correctly. He speaks several languages, regularly played bridge with Dido, before she was famous, and sold his home to Salman Rushdie. He was a Diplomat in Prague and a political producer for ITN in Westminster, interviewing politicians until an unfortunate incident with David Mellor and a football led to him getting sacked.After this, his career took a different direction and in the early 2000’s his hidden camera show TRIGGER HAPPY TV landed on Channel 4 and become an instant cult hit gaining him a dedicated fan base. Now an acclaimed travel writer, Dom has written and toured several books including THE DARK TOURIST; CONSPIRACY TOURIST; and SUCH MISERABLE WEATHER and has travelled to over 100 countries. Dom Joly - the Conspiracy Tour is visiting multiple venues in the UK in Sept/Oct/Nov this year. S & E talk to Dom about the serendipitous moments in his life and his willingness to push boundaries; what his biggest piece of advice is; and getting arrested. He's a fascinating and very funny man, and the resulting conversation is a treat to listen to.Along with a bumper crop of sketches, extra chats and plenty of surprises this final episode of the season will hopefully raise a lorra lorra laughs. The gals will be back in the autumn for SEASON FIVE!!!We hope you enjoy this episode. Please share it with someone you like who'd enjoy it too!
