This Is Going Well, I Think with David Cooper

By: David Cooper
  • Summary

  • Descend on chaos and uncertainty. Wonderful. Terrible. Irreverent. Irrelevant. Whatever it turns into, it’ll turn into something. This Is Going Well, I Think.


    The show oscillates between frenzied comedy and confession-booth sincerity, blurring the lines between his personal relationships and on-air ones in a way both intimate and (arguably) intrusive. Think Car Talk, but not helpful at all.


    New episodes five days a week. No promises. This show is a nightmare.

Finally, UK-based foreign correspondent Tony Five listens to David's half-baked theory on how being pooped on birds came to be considered good luck. Tony asks David about his childhood.
