Fresh from the Edinburgh Fringe, Colman, Chris and Mauricio unpack the highs, lows and general chaos of taking comedy to the festival. They compare the shows that worked, the rooms that fought back, the uniquely sneaky Scottish hecklers and the strange experience of trying to get noticed by agents.

They also look at which jokes and ideas are worth carrying forward into their developing hours—including Reddit-inspired premises, dead people, dating and the uncomfortable discovery that the material you trust the least can sometimes get the biggest reaction.

A post-Fringe debrief about bombing, killing, being noticed and working out what comes next.

Tell us what we should try and what should absolutely never leave this podcast.

The builders discuss the Artemis 2 mission and the public’s strange obsession with mundane space failures, such as malfunctioning toilets and broken email systems. The group critiques the mission's lackluster media coverage, jokingly suggesting that NASA should pivot to a reality TV format featuring "first orgasms in space" or "confessional booths" to regain global interest.

So now the question is: are these bits… or career-ending decisions?
