Keep It Light Media / Big Oval Plate
Comedians Joe Wilkinson & David Earl chat utter drivel to each other 3 - 5 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. It's a brilliantly chaotic podcast which occasionally covers regular topics like TV Reviews, Snooker, Canal boating and Music.

S15 Ep 792: A Close Shave and Watching Bottom
David’s had a close shave this morning, nearly being run into by a truck. So he tells Joe about that and then Joe recounts a similar near-miss when he was a student in Bristol. In other news, David's been watching lots of Blackadder with his kids (with accompanying Flashheart impressions), Joe remembers going to see Bottom live at the Hammersmith Apollo, there’s a progress report on their colds and they finish things off with a little meltdown about listening back to pod episodes.

S15 Ep 790: Mailbag Special - Our Little Systems
After seeing how many submissions they’ve received for Joe’s ‘Our Little Systems’ idea, David wants to use today’s Mailbag show to see if the new format has potential. And after reading out the first few messages, David’s feeling increasingly positive about it. But Joe’s really not too sure, so they start a timer and give it 30 minutes to prove itself. Will the listeners’s ‘systems’ be entertaining enough to make it over the finish line…

What a ride! Apologies again for all the coughing and sniffing!

S15 Ep 784: Joe’s Birthday Double Bubble Part 2
It’s the second part of our birthday double bubble episode, in honour of Joe’s 51st birthday. So following on from yesterday’s show, David and Joe discuss some of their insecurities about the pod, wonder why they’re getting fewer abusive comments, almost tell a new anecdote and finally realise why people continue listening to all this drivel. Then in an expositive finale, David reads some old tax returns and Joe digs out his gigging diary from 2011 for a reminisce. Happy birthday Joe!
