The One with Joseph Parsons

We talk sport and stand-up with a brilliant guest, and celebrate our 200th episode!

Joseph Parsons has loved sport for as long as he can remember.

From the joys of non-league football to the thrill of getting along to Ashton Gate, it's always been part of the comedian's life - but like many LGBTQ+ people, he didn't always find it easy to reconcile that with his identity as a gay man.

Now, Joseph is turning his experiences of being an LGBTQ+ sports fan into a brilliant new hour of stand-up that explores issues like body image, LGBTQ+ equality in sport, and coming to terms with his own sexuality.

This conversation touches on all those things and so much more besides - and it's one we think you're absolutely going to love. It's a very, very funny chat - and if you've ever wondered what it's like to bomb in front of a Premier League legend, Joseph has you covered!

Plus, it's our 200th episode - so we look back at some of the brilliant guests who have joined us on the show over the past three years.
