Can we please appreciate what a gentleman James is? The lady was so mean and he STILL made her tea, a bath and played by her rules...and when he said "she is my responsibility" my heart melted
@@parislane43 listen to this guy @Chigz girl. Believe men when they tell you shit about their gender. The dude wanted to fuck & that was his #1 motivation lol
Tbh I don't know why everyone's complaining. To me this sounds like the shy,clever & awkard guy telling his drunk friends a story about a girl he met. To which the friends reply in good fashion. Sure, Josh and Nish have crazy laughs, but it's funny and to me adds to the whole effect. Overall a story that should've taken 7 minutes to 20 and everyone's laughing at the end.
Init, everyone is always so salty in the comments as if this isn't a podcast full of different comedians and not just some special appreciation show for James.
@@cordeliax8972 then you would be incorrect, lol. Try 8:20 onwards, for example "you need to get out of there" is definitely him. 11:36 as well. He just isnt saying much.
Still one of the best stories I’ve ever heard. Every now and then it pops into my head and I let out a laugh. We all have a moral obligation to show it to anyone who hasn’t heard it yet
I would love to hear James's entire story, but I have to keep pausing it and attempting to return to it later because of the constant jarring interruption from incredibly loud, obnoxious, prolonged, unhinged donkey-braying (which presumably is meant to be laughter?) but serves only to disrupt the flow of the story and rip the listener violently out of the moment, making it difficult to focus on, follow, get carried along with, or enjoy the fabulous, twisting and turning, incredibly creative, always surprising, highly entertaining, never disappointing mind of James Acaster
@Tyler Sutherlin Yeah but my friends aren't comedians on TV. I'd expect people who's career are apparently based on comedy to know that when someone is telling a funny story and you don't have anything funny to add to it you just shut up and let them tell the story.
Sex is just weird. I've never had a one night stand like that. I've had an 11 hour date that ended in a one night stand, but that's a very different thing. I've never picked up a stranger. The whole idea just feels uncomfortable, but I suppose you might and then try to get yourself comfortable, and then fail to become comfortable, but still feel the need to appear confident and in control of the situation, especially as a woman. But yeah the get me a take away thing is pretty weird. Going to get dinner together seems like the correct course of action. And LIke, maybe join me for a shower as foreplay I can see, but draw me a bath? for a dude you don't even know? I guess she wanted to feel special and pampered, but that's not something you can force on a stranger. Bleh. Sex is weird. Knowing what you want / will want is hard. And trying to force comfort with someone new... I can understand the desire to do that, and the difficulty in our society of acting on your libido in the moment and not wanting to let an opportunity with an exciting stranger go by. The stories movies and tv tell us make it seem like we're supposed to, but you just can't force vibes with a new person that way. And yeah it is a bit weird how sex driven men seem to be. I've only recently accepted that it isn't a myth, and I'm iin my early 40s.
I generally find josh pretty funny.. but his laugh in this particular sample is really just pissing me off. So annoying. So cackly.. It is literally enraging me
Lol I really doubt this woman was so terse and controlling (esp the Chinese takout/tea/twister bit) or that even half of the things happened, but grade A storytelling.

he just really wanted to get laid lmao, every man has been there
@@Chigz10 you know it's possible to be capable of wanting to get laid but also caring about a woman's wellbeing right
@@parislane43 obviously but if you think her wellbeing was the thing motivating him more than anything then you're naive

Zara Malik right? It's literally just mates giggling over a stupid story
Init, everyone is always so salty in the comments as if this isn't a podcast full of different comedians and not just some special appreciation show for James.
Dude I wouldn't mind so much if Josh's laugh wasn't literally HURTING MY EARS. I can withstand annoying peopke but I draw the line at physical pain.
😂 Poor James! I can't believe anyone would treat him so badly, he's such a sweetie.
James had a 4 year relationship in one night
😂
So funny to hear where James actually got the influence for his competitive twister bit
See how Romesh only interrupts when he has something genuinely funny to say...
don’t think he was there lmao

Lieutenant Luxury oh yeah that’s fair that does sound like him
And 7:34
Nish and Josh have a lot to learn. Admittedly Josh only interrupts because he's an excitable toddler in an adults body.
That is literally the saddest story I’ve ever heard and I volunteer for the Samaritans helpline.
+RUclips
Yeah, I agree, it was hilarious up to the 'baby'-part..xD why did she enjoy abusing his friendliness like that...
@@Widdekuu91 Well it's because women are from Venus...
This would be epic if they animated it like the Ricky Gervais show.
Let's get this done!
One of the best and funniest scrapes ever. James seems to have a charm level of 10, but it comes with a corresponding level of haplessness
Still one of the best stories I’ve ever heard. Every now and then it pops into my head and I let out a laugh. We all have a moral obligation to show it to anyone who hasn’t heard it yet
This poor man he didn’t deserve that. He’s too sweet.
James is the only reason I watch mock the week he’s hilarious and dry as a bone
Yeah, he's the only one on Mock the Week that comes out with intelligent humour; the others just insult politicians and think it's enough.
And Milton Jones
i love hearing josh just laughing hysterically it absolutely makes these stories
This is the greatest thing I have ever heard
James should just have a show about his scrapes
Well he has a book now
Josh's mic needs to be turned down
Brianna Smith or off
or you can fuck off
Hindsight is 20/20
Worst comedian in here.
It's louder than James'
James honestly seems like such a sweetheart though
What a nutcase that woman was!! XD Poor James...
How does he get into these situations??? And where can I get a boyfriend like him? XD
@Sarah Algelius
If you find out where to find a James-clone, please inform me about it.
Yes same here
Any luck? 👀
love Acaster
+Always
Exactly. Always.
One of the best scrapes ever!!!!!!
This is absolutely hilarious
As soon as she said “go and get me a Chinese” I woulda told her to get lost and enjoy a cold night on the street 😂
Yes James is such a sweetheart ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Is that romesh ranganathan in the background?
Kryptonite Soul I think so it sounds like him
Yeah
Pure gold! Everytime I listen to it😂😂😂❤
Josh Widdicombe’s laugh hurts me
Same I am so close to going into a coma
I don't often get violent feelings.
But when I do, they're for Josh, during the scrapes.
I dont dislike Josh by any means, but is his entire role in these discussions just to laugh hysterically?
the attachment style she has needs to be studied by scientists
Will he ever run out of classic scrapes ?
I don’t know why I listen to these... well, I do... cos I want to listen to James, but I hate hearing about the other girls he pulls 😂😂😂
James is the best ever
I wish I had such a readily gleeful + happy laugh like Josh’s
Fantastic story
I live near Bath. I can vouch that there are plenty of nutcases there 😂
CLASSIC Acaster
poor james :( i would have showed her the door
I would have kicked her out
She turned you down in the end. I can't believe it. I would never change my mind on you.
That little gasp at 3:19 lolll
He just makes me laugh till I cry 😭
"you haven't kissed anything beginning with T yet, have you!"
The lengths lads will go to eh...😂😂😂
I would say James dodged a bullet, but in this case he came away with a minor flesh wound.
You can tell absolute boomers are in the comments 😂😂 can’t appreciate good banter, they’re just sad they have no mates
Omg you are the funniest man alive. I want to adopt you,
If only the others would shut up and let him speak
that's half the magic.
he said so in his book.
@@panicatthedisconnect said what?
Josh and Nish's laugh - so funny
"From earth"
I have 100% met people like this btw so to you all wondering if it's a true story, it is
Josh ruins these. what a silly fucking laugh
yes he's a daft bastard for choosing that laugh when he was born. He should change it immediately
Aw poor James wtf
heavens y e s
Legend.
I really like these tales but absolutely hate the laughter from those listening. It's too long and fake.
16:40 ...is there no 24/7 medical store/pharmacy around? that's a bit weird..
I'm cringing so much and I don't even know why
+Hannah
The loud noises, the laughing and the distracting backgroundnoises.
God the amount of forced laughs is doing my fucking head in
Who else was in this show? Other than Josh, James, and Nish?
I think it's John Robins.
Also Romesh Ranganathan.
Lilly DoesArtStuff Matthew Crosby from Pappy's
Lol if he actually had the condoms from that story he could sell them for a shitton easy XD
Poor James 😂
I would love to hear James's entire story,
but I have to keep pausing it and attempting to return to it later
because of the
constant jarring interruption from incredibly loud,
obnoxious,
prolonged,
unhinged
donkey-braying

focus on,
follow,
get carried along with,
or enjoy

twisting and turning,
incredibly creative,
always surprising,
highly entertaining,
never disappointing
mind of James Acaster
oh my god
josh's laugh though😂
Was her name Charlie??
11:14 😂😂😂😂
I wish everyone in the background would let him speak, totally ruins the story
100% agree, or at least be funny when they interrupt and stop with them horrendous laughs
@@anthonyhumphries4002
I'd prefer to listen to Bellatrix and Voldemort laughing at Neville compared to Josh's laugh. That says something.
i dont think so its just like when youre telling a story to your mates, they constantly interrupt and its fine
@Tyler Sutherlin Yeah but my friends aren't comedians on TV. I'd expect people who's career are apparently based on comedy to know that when someone is telling a funny story and you don't have anything funny to add to it you just shut up and let them tell the story.
Josh.. JUST STOP LAUGHING!! Urrghh..
Love James but almost had to turn it off listening to Josh’s forced fucking laugh, someone turn the ginger’s mic off?
There isn't an off license opposite that flat so dunno what that's about
I like these stories of James here....except for Josh's ear-cutting, psycho laugh.
I find this hard to believe - James is an attractive man surely he can’t have been that desperate to sleep with some rando
I don't think he was necessarily desperate, more so he s too polite
People don’t just hookup up with strangers cause they’re desperate. He probably thought it would be fun
@@Artemisdianaxxx Except this girl doesn't sound fun at all?
@@randomuploadsism he said she seemed nice before they got back to the flat
So funny but the laughter makes it almost unbearable
Josh’s fake laugh is unbearable
This is a story from an episode of Game On, mid-90s show starring Ben Chaplin.

I'm not a fan of Nish at all
Harry Jones his still more funny than josh tho.
Josh Widdicombe is fucking unbearable

God how they interrupt him. Unbearable.
Nish Kumar is not funny in the slightest. But that's just my opinion...
Nish is the least funny person on Tele
Nish Kumar is so ridiculously unfunny in these situations..
Nish Kumar is the least funny comedian going. Well, except for Russel Howard
Lol I really doubt this woman was so terse and controlling (esp the Chinese takout/tea/twister bit) or that even half of the things happened, but grade A storytelling.
