It's a great podcast as usual. These guys are amazing! audible has the dumbest review system. There shouldn't be a minimum word count for reviews.

great podcast

If I had three wishes, the first would obviously be infinite wishes, but the next would be for Mr. Acaster to be my genie waiter for at least one meal. The chemistry between Acaster and Ed Gamble, who are both brilliantly funny comedians, is always amazing and the whole experience leaves you with the impression of sitting around a table with clever friends discussing light topics like what you should and shouldn't stuff in the crust of a pizza or whether or not killing a hypothetical alien chicken is amoral. My recommendation to anyone feeling overwhelmed by the world (and who in their right mind isn't by now), is to stop doom scrolling and join Ed Gamble and James Acaster in their magic restaurant, you will be happy you did. This podcast is to podcasts what the year 2016 was to music (the best thing to ever happen to it).

Amazing Listen, Treat Yourself!

I love anything with James Acaster in it and his banter with Ed Gamble is hilarious. I also really enjoy all the guests and the variety in menus as well as all the back stories and emotions attached to different meals for people. It's extremely funny, but also interesting. Don't miss it!

The perfect cure for a bad day
