Eyre-Leigh Doors

PAULINE'S BOOK! Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: It’s the incredible Angela Barnes. A Mock the Week regular, Radio 4 stalwart and one of the funniest comics on the circuit today, she gave us her all! We talk a little about “Open Spots”. These are non-professional comedians who often travel many miles to do 10 minutes comedy in a draughty village hall for nothing but the love of the game. Gill Edwards’ Comedy Course details here Boris Johnson in a greasy spoon, a deep dive into the culture of Ambridge. Peter Oborne on the Newsquiz - here’s a Reddit thread about it So much chat about how Angela feels about her recent ADHD diagnosis and neurodivergence in general (a topic v close to Louise’s heart!) Linda Smith - here’s a video of her on Have I Got News for You that will remind you that nothing much changes in politics, although a lot has changed in representation of women on TV! Fascinating stuff about nuclear bunkers! We try to give Angela her dream come true. But will she take it? Who’s our guest and how can you reach them on the socials?

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: Much discussion of kneidlach, without any discussion of what they actually are! They’re super tasty matzo balls that go in traditional Jewish chicken soup. Yum! And the song about Zaidy. A wolf of a headteacher, and at one point Louise asserts that Frazzles are vegan. This is NOT TRUE. Repeat, NOT TRUE. They are, however, vegetarian. Does that make them kosher? They have milk in, so… maybe? I dunno. I’m not a rabbi. The image of Adam Ant that lived in Rachel’s cupboard, Taika Waititi the perfect podcast guest. Valerie Landsburg - if you don’t know who she is, AND WHY WOULD YOU! Here she is singing 80s banger, Hi Fidelity from The Kids from Fame. Jewish mothering, Dave Chapelle and why men and woman can’t be friends. If you know, you know. Victoria Wood, of course.

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: Lots of chat about laundry, because even celebs have to launder. Lovely stuff about the intensity of friendships between girls and the awful realisation that maybe YOU were the bully. Trigger Warning for Xylophobics everywhere. And here’s the bit about the drunk girl from a nightclub toilet (watch til the end) We talk dancing like nobody’s watching, even if people are watching. Doing the voices when you’re reading to your kids. There is a song of the Going on A Bear Hunt that predates the MIchael Rosen book. Frank talk about frank talk. Some Christmas content and also Robin Williams. Who’s our guest and how can you reach them on the socials?

Show notes for: David Ferguson Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: David Ferguson is a London-based comic from Northern Ireland. And a lovely episode it is too. It features Joan Crawford, Reverend Ian Paisley, the miracle that is Maria Bamford and the delights of a young Brendan Fraser. And you can’t say that about any other podcast, can you? You can watch Maria Bamford’s specials on Netflix if you are so inclined. Be so inclined, seriously, do. This is an old one, with 8 scenarios and even Pauline doing the sound effects - it’s vintage quality. Iain Duncan Smith solving housing problems instead of shagging them up for a change. We discussed Simon Cowell and Britain’s Got Talent; we talked Cary Grant and other golden age of Hollywood stuff; what you’d give up to work with your heroes and loads more besides. We also discussed working in a sex shop and how close to therapy retail can be. Who’s our guest and how can you reach them on the socials? David Ferguson is @dafergisfunny on most things. He’s bringing a show around the festivals of this country this year and you can find it here.

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: John Robertson dances along the line between genius and madman with all the flair and aplomb of a peak-career Antoine Du Beke. What an absolute joy to have on the podcast. It’s chaos from the beginning. Check out his incredible interactive show The Dark Room Celebrities (including Tim Minchin) lying to you to make you feel special, and how we feel special because of it. Teachers without Qualifications is not as good as Doctors without Borders. Science Museum puppetry and the sexual mores of the Divorced Aussie Dad. How do they wash their balls in the Big Lebowski? Like this! A passable impression of a Venus flytrap with the soul of Tom Waits, reference is made to the Singing Frog of Looney Tunes (Part 1 and Part 2) John Robertson on Australia’s Got Talent Deanna Troi emotes and falls over.

There’s a baby joining in this conversation. Sadly, we couldn’t understand his wise and hilarious words because we have forgotten how to speak Baby. Huge kudos to Athena for multitasking like a boss and enormous thanks to her for being so generous with her time. We learned about the amazing Yaa Asantewaa, Ghanaian queen mother and rebel, we speculated on the sell by date of Cleopatra’s ass milk - the milk from a donkey, you sicko. And whether Serena Williams would be a good Roman Emperor. Spoiler: YES! We also slagged off builders big time. And then we slagged off their boss, but speculated on the kind of dinner that would be enough to induce us to spend time with someone who destroyed our children’s dreams. We talk about running and sports. And Rhianna. In the same scenario. Athena fails to understand the rules and then gets put in charge of the whole country. And it’s a really interesting chat about lots of political things. And we’ve got a gambler on our hands... but will she win? And if you like Judi Love there’s a nice story about her.

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: Brilliant comedian, writer and dog owner, Juliet Meyers struggles with what’s happened to her teenage crush, Scott Baio, seen here as Chachi, with his TV girlfriend, Joanie. (and here for lovers of 1970s/80s Italian-American comedy actors is Tony Danza). We talk about imagining your world better, the etiquette of turning down a threeway, and which Elvis would you choose? Louise’s preferred Elvis, Juliet’s preferred Elvis, for your reference (and delectation, if that’s how you choose to delectate). And the best ever biopic featuring Miriam Margolyes is ruined by a member of the cabinet. Again. And SPOILERS for the Usual Suspects, which came out 26 years ago, so really that’s on you. And some terrible dog behaviour that isn’t by Diggory the podcast dog. And how a nightmare trip to India could be even worse. It’s an absolute blinder of an episode. Please do enjoy!

Show notes for: Fatiha El Ghorri Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: Fatiha smashed it on the Russell Howard Hour the other week. She was an absolute joy to have on the podcast, even though Pauline was FULL of cold! We slagged off the worst boss - Wiggy McBadBreath, we discussed dancing to plants, childhood career goals, can you rely on fellow comedian Esther Manito? Why are we keeping a duck in a cupboard?

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: An absolute Festival of Filth from Robin Morgan, a fantastic Welsh comedian whose brilliant joke-writing and engaging persona have got him writing credits all over the shop and a spot on Live at the Apollo and Mock the Week. Basically, he’s got everything. But does he have an amazing job with Basil Brush? Or a disgusting friend? Yes, all of these actually. Oh just listen to it.

Some hissing on the track - we welcome speculation as to what it can be. A distant hairdryer perhaps? Or a pet snake? Jackie Weaver is one of the funniest guests on the podcast, with a gorgeous dry sense of humour and an incredibly expressive face, which had us in stitches a lot of the time. We hope this comes across! We put her in a situation where two worlds collide with Anton Du Beke, and see what would happen if her father in law was a certain patronising backbencher - and how absolutely dim Louise is when it comes to hints as to his identity. Jackie Weaver’s lovely husband Stuart and his terrible dog/stairs related accident. Will Jackie be carried away by Richard Gere, or is he just here for her brand new telly? We give her the chance to live out her fantasy as Captain of the SS Enterprise, but absolutely ruin it with Andrew Lloyd Webber. Check out Jackie Weaver Merch on Etsy, if you want to support small artists who are exploiting her image! Is she going to take this cool job on the latest comedy panel show? Oh no she isn’t. She’s an absolute bastion of mischievous midlife and WASPI-ish humour. What a delight to share an hour of chit-chat and banter!

Waaah! We're back!

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: Final episode in the series! It was recorded at the Brighton Fringe at Sweet Venues, definitely not in a toilet. Apologies that it does sound a little toilety. A very funny, sweet, thoughtful episode nonetheless and well worth tuning your ears into. Of course, Jurgen Klopp features (read Laura’s book, please do!) and, quite frankly, Laura disgraces herself in a way that only she could (well, and Louise. It’s based on a story from Louise’s life) Laura turns down the chance to live in a haunted house with the ghost of a GP’s receptionist. Not surprising, really. More surprising, though, she shuns a lengthy produce-based #ramblechat with much-loved podcaster Adam Buxton AND the chance to be in a double act with Jennifer Aniston. But why? And how? And what’s going on with Gary Barlow and the football? She explains her spat with Piers Morgan and why she doesn’t respect him. It’s not just because he has a ‘slap me’ face, which surprised Louise no end. No surprises whom she chooses to spend time with in another dimension, but some disappointment when she learns she could be hanging out with Danny DeVito if she’d held on a bit longer. Still, we have the joy of the newest detective agency, Stumpy and Stumpy, a crime-fighting duo with the biggest of brains (and the shortest of legs) But that’s the nature of the game… Have a lovely time (enjoy!)

Oh wow - what a blinder of an episode! Kathryn Mather is a young comedian on the up. We presented her with a Coronation Street legend, the chance of a streetlight worth making a documentary about and a cabinet minister with a lot on her plate - most of it stinky sweat gravy. There's extremely strong language on the subject of Gordon Ramsay and an astonishing public proposal from a madman. Kathryn is fast on her way to being the 'pride of our alley', but how does she feel about Rochdale's other favourite daughter? Share this cracking episode with the people at YOUR bottom-strengthening class - and maybe the ones at your top-strengthening class too! Let's get the word out there!

Brilliant Australian comedian Heidi Regan turns down the opportunity to be on a dull date with current Health Secretary Matt Hancock. Timely, given that we release 24 hours after the story of his raging affair with his aide. She also turns down the chance to have an encounter with a great white shark but be rescued by a “sexy Greta Thunburg” and the chance to be trapped in her own farts with a children’s book character. If you’re playing “recurring celebrities bingo”, you can put a cross through Sandi Toksvig. A lengthy discussion of the different kinds of playground skipping and far too much asking young girls to be on dates. And will Heidi take the opportunity to be BFFs with a young Hugh Grant? Of course! Instant regrets as she misses out on doing an escape room with Thor star, the Chris that is Hemsworth. Heidi tells us about her love of B Movies and the teacher who ruined her life, but didn’t remember traumatising her. Heidi Regan, @heidi_regan on Twitter, check out her Radio 4 Comedy Series out Wednesday 30th June here Also given an honourable mention, the dubbed series of Heidi, which has proved pretty hard to find, but the theme tune is here, Gen X nostalgia-fans Our Social media links: Find Eyre Leigh Doors online on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram Find Louise Leigh on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram Catch up with Pauline Eyre on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram We love that you’ve listened, whether for the first time or if you’re a returning listener.

Gorgeous episode featuring Cally Beaton from QI, The Apprentice You're Fired, off of Radio 4 and an absolute cracking stand up comedian. But, you know, she *may* have ruined Louise's life in the 90s so we have to start with that. Because of Cally's years of work as a top telly executive and as a sought-after comedian and speaker, the celebrity name-dropping is plentiful. We have Elton John at Cally's beck and call, Sandi Toksvig on a dashboard and Joan Rivers like you've never imagined her before. She would approve. Possibly. Yes a yam is used in a way that only the sickest of minds could imagine, yes there is chat about raising kids in the 21st Century, why imposter syndrome reigns in even the most successful-looking people and a tale of ice cream corruption. We chat midlife superpowers, the joy of shoplifting and other ways to get your adrenaline fix. Oh, and you should the terrible thing that happens to Oprah Winfrey! In the show, Cally and Pauline share their love of comedian Richard Todd, whose show you can watch on Next Up Comedy if you're a member there, or better still seek him out live near your home. They also mention the hilarious Nathan Cassidy. Check him out if you get a chance. In other news, if you are around this weekend (19th/20th June) in Brighton, you can get 2-4-1 tickets to our live editions by turning up at the Sweet Venues box office and saying the magic words: "Choose it or Lose it" . So tell your friends. The venue will be beautifully socially distant and Covid Secure. Thanks so much for listening to the podcast, whether this is your first time, or if you do it week after week.

Music by Ben Woolford Tickets to our Brighton Fringe shows will sell out - if you buy them all! Make it happen for us here. Shows are on 19th June with Susan Murray and 20th June with Laura Lexx. Buy tickets here! Award winning comedian Philip Simon, host of podcast Jew Talkin' To Me? and ex Daddy Pig regales us with stories of kicking Brenda Blethyn, inspirational teachers and what happens when you meet yourself in a cafe. Or is it you? Or is it a remake of Being John Malkovich starring David Mitchell? He's got stories of when The People from Hellmans Dijonaise couldn't understand about hair gel and why - in spite of his massive crush - he might not let Rachel Riley raise his children. We also discuss whether Deborah Meaden would lend you her slacks in a squeeze, partying at the Palace (not the nightclub in Bridgewater) and Mollie Ringwald in pranksterish mode. So if you love Dragon's Den, the Pretty in Pink, Royal Weddings, inappropriate drawings on children's theatre costumes, this is the listen for you. Of course there's the worst first gig story we've ever heard, with a triumphant response from Philip, we introduce Philip to the concept of Wayne Lineker. Hosted on Acast.
