This week it's all about the series 17 "penny"!

Jack checks in with his stats as we approach the finale, including where Steve falls in the category of ‘best prize task contestants’ from all series, and the pair ponder whether or not bleep tests universal, what would a Sophie + Steve team have looked like, if Joanne goofed in the third task, and if Steve could have been inspired by Les Bub with the rubber bands.

And finally, we get some answers about how snakes shag thanks to our dedicated fans, but unfortunately it does lead to more questions for Jack and Jenny.

Plus, Jack and Jenny talk all things ep 8, including powerful thighs, squeezing farthings, Wolfie's injustice, and how not to be an umbrella.

Also, would Greg have preferred to squeeze a groinal ingrown hair with his mighty hands? Jenny thinks so! You can weigh in by getting in touch: fans@taskmaster.tv

This week Jenny and Jack give their hot take on episode 5 of series 17 - including;

• An extraordinary revelation in the prize task
• Why it helps to have a little 'shed panic'
• Which contestant Tyra Banks would have championed this week
• Why some contestants are allowed to use fire but others aren’t
• And why we should all visit the National Portrait Gallery

Plus, did the pair happen upon a goof in task 2? Would you go to prison to win a prize task? All this, plus a mid-series stats roundup from Jack.

This week Jack and Jenny discuss episode 4 of series 17 - including what grandmothers REALLY want, slut drop modifications you can do at home for the less experienced, and whether it's ok for Greg to ever appear in the Taskmaster house.

Jack also tries to make sense of a task that even he isn’t sure is objective or subjective, and the pair speak to the 'real hand' behind this week's hand shaking task.

This week Jenny and Jack hear from the voice behind the infamous Mr. Blobby task, unleashing some bonus Blobby factoids and behind the scenes insights thanks to Production Manager Sophie.

Plus, Jack discusses whether or not there’s any hope for the increasing gap between contestant scores, stats-wise, and why Dara should be a little afraid. We also learn why Greg might want to torch the John’s Howdah prize task after hearing this podcast and whether Alex could ever survive without a clipboard.

Don't worry, there's some good old fashioned pedantry too, with a brief philosophical exploration into what it actually means to walk towards a duck if you live on a spherical planet.
