  • With the live comedy scene in tatters due to Covid 19, Ed Byrne has started a side hustle of interviewing his showbiz pals whilst hill walking.
    In this first film, Ed is hiking up Mynydd Carningli with stand up comic and TV/Radio presenter Rhod Gilbert
    If you fancy walking up Carningli from Newport there's a route map here: www.pembrokesh...

    And Rhod's performance at The Royal Variety that was discussed at length is here:

    I was panicking cause my podcast ended and I had nobody talking in my ear while I worked. This is perfect.

    Extremely excited for more of these. I would love to see Greg Davies especially or Dara O Briain

      Since they’re always joking Dara doesn’t have legs on Mock the Week, I hope they cgi out his legs and replace them with a little personal ATV or a unicycle bottom.
      And I think they’ll have to airlift Greg to the top of wherever they’re going and just have him walk the down bit 😂

    Great idea, I am in panel show withdrawal in the U.S. and RUclips is my only hope.

    As someone from the states, I kept thinking “I know Rhod. How do I know him?” Finally looked him up on RUclips. Yes, I’ve seen his acts before but geez he looks so different with the beard! He’s great! Keep up the great podcast Ed! Love your work as well! Oh, and now I see the links you have posted. Thanks!
