Man Like You with Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé & Eddie Kadi

Show Notes

Ever tried to impress someone you fancied and ended up wishing you’d stayed home?

Mo Gilligan, Eddie Kadi and Babatunde AlĂ©shĂ© confess their biggest dating disasters — from bringing a date to a comedy gig and bombing on stage, to a customised BMW causing embarrassment in the West End and a spontaneous trip to Spain that went wrong on night one.

Plus, who’s REALLY on the biggest power trip? The boys take on bouncers, clipboard gatekeepers, ticket inspectors and the people deciding when your wedding table can finally eat.

There’s also an honest chat about getting older, the struggle of finding something to watch before your food goes cold, and Baba’s case for talking to yourself in the car.
