“if you go into this expecting a slick, well-edited comedy show then you are going to be disappointed.
But if you enjoy standup comedy clubs and open-mic nights then you'll appreciate what Herring is going for here. It's basically a shotgun comedy show. Firing out a large blast of unedited, brand new, raw material that hasn't been audience tested and seeing how it plays out.

“Getting better every week, although the podcast cover is clearly contrived to hide herring's stomach in a similar way to fat girls on myspace trying to cover their flabby shame. Its lack of editing an often creative swearing, topical humour and irreverent tangents make for a highly...”Read full review »
