Comedians Joe Wilkinson & David Earl chat utter drivel to each other 3 days a week. They natter to celebrities and deep dive into guests with interesting lives (as theirs is so boring). Occasionally they plan a surprise for each other to pep it up a bit. David loves hearing about behind the scenes stuff from TV shows and writing jingles. Joe likes adventuring and is obsessed with the podcast charts. Sometimes they'll embark on a day out podding together just so they can get out of the house. ...

Andy is back on the Bix! And it’s been such a long time - so David and Joe are really keen to find out what he’s been up to. Well, as it happens he’s just back from America where he somehow manage to play in the US Nine-Ball Pool Open in Atlantic City. It was undoubtably the trip of a lifetime for him so he tells us all. And with all the deviations…

We left the last episode on a right cliffhanger, so hold on tight for the big reveal - just how did David get on at the Dental Implant Centre?! But this is Groundhog Day podding after all, so you know the drill - plenty more repetitious dentistry chat. And stay tuned for some properly dramatic news about his Bath move. There’s also a lot of awful 4…

David’s about to go back to the dentist for some more work on his teeth - or should that be the Dental Implant Centre?

Joe went to a friend’s BBQ at the weekend, where all the guests played lots of games in the garden.

And it turns out Joe’s excitement when celebrating was just …

We’re back with David in Bath as he continues his tour of the city - with Joe on Zoom, following him on Google Maps.

He also gets recognised and is offered a cup of coffee while he …

In some very exciting news, David’s bought a cold tub and of course Joe wants him to get into it on the pod. But for a number of reasons he won’t today, so that’s the end of that for the moment (watch this space).
