LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO GO FLYING DOWNHILL IN A WHEELCHAIR Well, admittedly, that sounds like immediately post interview I hurled my guest down a steep hill. Not true. Although, perhaps he might have enjoyed it as you will find out here. Maybe we can do it tandem style in the future...oh the stares we would get.

LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO NOT BE SCARED OF SH*T Sarah Callaghan is badass. Nuff said. Ok, a little more. I've always admired Sarah's tenacity. She is extremely driven although sometimes she gets a little frustrated when the old 'sat nav' of life elongates her journey to the proverbial Acton Town. Get me?

LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE A COMEDIAN AND A PUNDIT (WHO SOMETIMES GETS DEATH THREATS!) Sure, that's the most attention grabbing headline I could choose for an interview that consists of so much more - BUT - I think it's appropriate. This talk revolves around media, the manipulation of it, the pros and cons of doing so, how I feel about it, etc. In other words - another Off the Grid classic! Enjoy.

LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU WANT TO FEEL AHEAD OF YOUR TIME Jay Handley bonded one night in a comedy club green room in Birmingham. Friends ever since, we hit all the points we've come to love here on Off the Grid, as well as our mutual feelings on whether or not self promotion belongs in a live stand up performance. Not to mention the fact I haven't been able to take him up on his generous offers to go rock climbing (this will happen, I promise!). A great man. A great episode. Enjoy.

LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU WANT TO HEAR RUSSELL DRINK TOO MUCH COFFEE BEFORE GOING OFF ON SOMETHING ANOTHER COMEDIAN TWEETED Hoo-boy. That one cup of coffee that send you right over the edge huh, guys? I really go off on one here, folks. But enough about me. Dave Green stops by to discuss whether or not he believes a new radio show has actually stolen one of his very own ideas that he had been producing for over a year. We talk about people getting more angry then he may have gotten over social media as well as how he feels it all stands up to my self proclaimed, 'top notch bullshit detector'. Guys, the coffee was strong on this one. Enjoy. Go to russellhicks.co.uk and sing the MAILING LIST for tour dates.
