Entertainment Comedy

Greg Behrendt, author of best-selling relationship books He’s Just Not That Into You, It’s Just a F***ing Date and How to Keep Your Marriage From Sucking, is back with over an hour of top notch comedy recorded live at Acme Comedy Company in Minneapolis. Behrendt brings his hilarious stories and observations to the stage explaining why sobriety isn’t for everyone, what makes parenting so different in the 21st Century, and how to handle a friend that you hate. Why Are You In Here? offers reassurance for those imperfect parenting moments and hearty laughs even Behrendt’s teenage daughters would appreciate.

This is the second volume in the collection of Chris Dabb's readings of Pete Sortwell's comedy books, containing More Village Idiot Reviews, More Office Idiot Reviews, and Bride and Gloom: sometimes love is better off blind. In More Village Idiot Reviews, Frederick has injured his nipples in a vicious moped accident while on his honeymoon and no longer feels like a man. Meanwhile, Ethel has discovered who made her shopping trolley explode last year.

In all my years of reporting on the human condition, this has to be the most bizarre, and (if true) history shattering interviews I've ever conducted. This story is told by Billy "Big Rig", a pseudonymous truck driver I met over sausage gravy and biscuits in the late 1990s when I was driving a truck to make ends meet. We struck up a friendship, although I think I maybe spoke 10 words to him the whole time I knew him. He did most of the talking. And the way he spun a yarn caused me to be transfixed.

Richard Griffiths, Clive Merrison, and Frances de la Tour star as part of the National Theatre cast. At a boys' grammar school in Sheffield, eight boys are being coached for the Oxbridge entrance exams. It is the mid-eighties, and the main concern of the unruly bunch of bright sixth-formers is getting out, starting university and starting life.

Laura Solon won the Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 2005 with her sensational debut show. She now returns to Radio 4 with a new series of her bittersweet comedy show packed with characters, monologues and sketches from this extraordinary writer and performer. There will be talking, not talking, some stories, and a lion made out of china. Aided by Rosie Cavaliero, Ben Moor and Ben Willbond, Laura Solon is a remarkable talent with an astonishing eye for detail and ear for voice.

Despite the accusations being hurled at him, he's telling the truth when he says he found the man wandering aimlessly in the bramble.

内容紹介

Such barking, such endless yapping from a dog that usually holds his peace unless he is unduly troubled can only mean one thing. It is our turn to be honored by a visit from Oscar the 'possum. Oscar is what you'd call a shadowy figure. He never does come out where you can see him in broad daylight, like birds and squirrels and other creatures do. I don't know if it's because he doesn't like the looks of us or he thinks we wouldn't like the looks of him. Or maybe he's just too shy to come right up and introduce himself.

A celebration of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, featuring some of comedy’s most iconic voices in excerpts from their appearances on Jerry Seinfeld’s groundbreaking streaming series!
