Show Notes
This is genuinely my favourite episode of the Fesshole podcast - the one where we turn it into a panel show.
From the earliest days of doing the Fesshole account, there's been people saying "you should make this into a panel show" and I kinda resisted it as I felt the best version of Fesshole should go deeper into the confessions rather than riff off them, but you know what, we finally had a go and it's... good?
I loved writing a script for a show and devising some simple games to play and I loved getting Sam Bambs in, I felt her humour and just good naturedness really made me and Dave up our game.
OK - let's brainstorm some titles and see what sticks.
Can we make a game show out of Fesshole?
Fesshole: the inevitable panel show
The one where we get a funny lady in and she's improves the show massively
Hope you like the episode - we had such fun doing this and I think that comes accross.

This is the shed episode. The one me and Dave recorded face to face in a shed and the vibe is good because of this.
When we started this podcast the one thing we thought would be important to do was to talk to a priest and compare notes about taking confessions.
I really like this episode - me and Dave are relaxed and into the vibe of what we've created. It reminds me of Seinfeld, now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying we've reached the heights of Larry David's best writing here, but like Seinfeld, it's a show about nothing.
It's not something you expect, one day you're swimming in the local pool and you see your acquaintance Chris Atkins and have a bit of a chat with him whilst both of you are playing with your kids and then two days later he's on the front page of the Daily Mail, imprisoned for five years for tax fraud.
