Taskmaster: The People's Podcast

Show Notes

Jenny and Jack discuss part two of the 2026 New Years Treat asking the questions no one else has yet asked, such as; what would it be like to holiday with this cast? Is a moth-eaten squirrel exotic? Is it time to stop the 'thing inside a thing' Taskmaster trend? And we've had Champion of Champions, but should we follow Sweden in hosting a 'Loser of Losers'? A listener writes in to discuss. Next week we're back to our homework, watching another part two - this time of Champion of Champions 1. Send all your goofs, bloops and homework suggestions to: [email protected].

It’s episode eight, and the Taskmaster table has turned: Chloe, who looked set for a record-breaking win, crashes to just nine points, while Nina starts closing the gap and Richard has his best ever episode. Elsewhere there’s an Aardman style mask, bloody knees, a heartfelt defence of a prom dress, and a detour into the stuffed walrus at the Horniman Museum.

Jenny and Jack are back to discuss series 22, episode 7. If you're someone who ever got their first tingle in the measuring shop or may be living in or around Edgware, then this episode is for you. Plus, do we need cutlery plaits? Why was Matt's plate of chocolate no match for Chloe's Caramac? How fast was that tiny train going?

Jenny and Jack reconvene this week to discuss episode 6, and Jack is grumpy (but why?) while Jenny reveals her true thoughts on QR codes (witchcraft). Meanwhile Chloe shows no signs of slowing, Matt births a new character, Richard refuses to whoopsie, Isy bends time, and Nina takes inspiration from Julian Clary. Plus a listener writes in to point out something very backwards and we wade into a genre debate about a book written by America’s toughest judge.

We're halfway through series 22 and this week it's all about highfalutin prize tasks, the contestant that mostly resembles a sexy shetland pony trotting around Dartmoor, Isy's world of velvet, and cookies from Chateau Marmont. Plus, Jack brings in some mid-series stats, and is Nina doing a Jenny Eclair? Send all your emails to [email protected]

Jack and Jenny are back to break down Episode 4 of Series 22. The prize theme is "juicy", an under-table task raises a lot questions, Chloe carries two armpit-averse teammates through some armpit art and someone has to convince everyone they're wearing a secret workplace earpiece. And is the closest we've ever come to a perfect episode? Plus your emails: a listener corrects Alex on the finer points of gleeking, and another spots a possible sausage machine callback in the Series 22 trailer.
