Please can you invite your best friend from primary school Dylan Wall onto the pod. We need to hear about time lost and rekindle that friendship. You clearly loved eachother so much

Loved Chris McCausland, Jameela episode was hilarious, she’s brilliant and Ricky too, great to listen to. Romesh seems to bring out the best in people, love him

Some good episodes

Love Romesh, he’s absolutely hilarious! The guy in the background (pretty sure he’s called Ben) is so unnecessary though. He keeps interrupting, and isn’t funny or adding anything. Please get rid of him or tell him to be quiet. He’s not main man material - yet like he would quite like to be a host. Let Romesh do his thing - PLEASE. The only other criticism I’d have is that it can sound quite ‘blokey’- laughter in the background suggests there’s no women in the show’s production which is a shame.

Just love this podcast.

Really good podcast, always love the Thursday episodes with Shanti. BUT maybe some more different types of guests, seems like it’s a show for comedians talking about their lives in comedy, so is getting a bit repetitive. More female guests too would be great!

Love Ramesh, had some really good interviews BUT Ricky was brilliant. Rom and Ricky was a duo I didn’t know I needed! So funny.
AmyJJames · GB
I could listen to this podcast all day everyday. I listen to loads of pods but at the moment this is my absolute favourite

What a show with Ricky, didn’t want it to stop. Keep up the great work Romesh and team!

Love Romesh and enjoy all your work, but finding the noise from the team intrusive; it takes away from the listener experience (especially the machine gun laughter).

So brilliant , everyone’s a winner 😂😂 The ep with sleep training baby tips with Shanthi and pictures of the presidents had me crying with laughter . More More More 😘😘❤️

Hi Romesh, I really enjoyed this episode — such a fantastic interview with Chris. I’m a big fan of his, and I’m going to see him on tour at the Crewe Lyceum next month. Can’t wait!😊

I was listening to the Christmas special this morning and couldn’t stop laughing! What a way to start the morning. Thank you so much!

Really good podcasts, admittedly I give most of the guest episodes a miss, mainly because the guests aren’t very interesting. Not that i’m interesting at all but i’m not on a podcast. The Shanthi episodes are hilarious, I just wish they were longer which is why i’ve not given 5 stars. It would be great to tag Tom Davis into an episode for the wolf pack.

Enjoyable listen but a little too much focus on celebrity life, and stays surface level which is such a shame given the quality of guest and their experiences. Rom has a tendency to constantly reflect back on his own experiences which is probably to make the guest feel comfortable but it a little frustrating. Much much much prefer Wolf and Owl.

I particularly love the pod with Shanthi, it makes me cry laughing.
Carlo's Friend · GB
That’s not the point
LostSoulsuNi · GB
I love this podcast and look forward to it every Monday and Thursday. I think the contrast between the two also works well, and they are distinct in their own right.
CherryB57 · GB
Romesh is such a funny and natural host. I prefer the episodes with just him and his mum
NKO2022 · GB
Rom speaks to famous in a lovely way. Rom, Shanti, Ben and the rest of the team will warm your ears this winter with good times. 5 stars. No notes. (You could ask who am I to add notes, but that’s not the point mate.)
MattLinaker · GB
It is so funny 🤣🤪🤣🤪
Blahblah_1250 · GB
What an excellent podcast. It’s really funny and everyone comes on to chipper and have fun which I love. The Jameela Jamil episode was hilarious. She’s so funny and Ramesh could bounce off her to brilliant comedic effect.

Love the podcast, very entertaining, but please be more descriptive for listeners. Feels like we’re missing out and lot of stuff lost as we’re not able to see what’s visually going on. I love listening before bed but sometimes I don’t know what’s going on because they’ve obviously forgotten about people who are listening and not watching 😢
