Eyre-Leigh Doors is a comedy game show/chat show mash up that gives guests the chance to talk about their hopes and dreams, their embarrassing moments, their greatest triumphs and the people they would - and wouldn't - like to share them with if they had their chance.


Guests have the chance to choose just one dimension to live in - one door to walk through. But the catch is, they don't get to hear all the options before they choose! Will they opt to relive their worst ever day but spend it with their heroes? Or achieve their wildest professional goals in the company of Nobby Nosepicker from school? It's a case of Choose it or Lose it!


Pauline and Louise met in early 2020 when they shared a midlife comedy moment - one of the last shows before the Corona Virus. It took a year of chatting and developing an entirely different set of ideas before settling on this fun format. Both took up comedy in midlife, and bring a richness of life experience - and silliness - to the table.


"Such fun to do! A really ace format" Mark Olver

"Dynamite!" Stu Goldsmith


It's pronounced Early Doors basically. Early Doors Podcast.

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: 


It’s the incredible Angela Barnes. A Mock the Week regular, Radio 4 stalwart and one of the funniest comics on the circuit today, she gave us her all! 

We talk a little about “Open Spots”. These are non-professional comedians who often travel many miles to do 10 minutes comedy in a draughty village hall for nothing but the love of the game. Gill Edwards’ Comedy Course details here

Boris Johnson in a greasy spoon, a deep dive into the culture of Ambridge. Peter Oborne on the Newsquiz - here’s a Reddit thread about it

So much chat about how Angela feels about her recent ADHD diagnosis and neurodivergence in general (a topic v close to Louise’s heart!) 

Linda Smith - here’s a video of her on Have I Got News for You that will remind you that nothing much changes in politics, although a lot has changed in representation of women on TV! 

Fascinating stuff about nuclear bunkers! 

We try to give Angela her dream come true. But will she take it?

Here’s what’s in your show today: 


Much discussion of kneidlach, without any discussion of what they actually are! They’re super tasty matzo balls that go in traditional Jewish chicken soup. Yum! 


And the song about Zaidy. 


A wolf of a headteacher, and at one point Louise asserts that Frazzles are vegan. This is NOT TRUE. Repeat, NOT TRUE. They are, however, vegetarian. Does that make them kosher? They have milk in, so… maybe? I dunno. I’m not a rabbi.


The image of Adam Ant that lived in Rachel’s cupboard, Taika Waititi the perfect podcast guest. 


Valerie Landsburg - if you don’t know who she is, AND WHY WOULD YOU! Here she is singing 80s banger, Hi Fidelity from The Kids from Fame. 


Jewish mothering, Dave Chapelle and why men and woman can’t be friends. If you know, you know.

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: 


David Ferguson is a London-based comic from Northern Ireland. And a lovely episode it is too. It features Joan Crawford, Reverend Ian Paisley, the miracle that is Maria Bamford and the delights of a young Brendan Fraser. And you can’t say that about any other podcast, can you?

You can watch Maria Bamford’s specials on Netflix if you are so inclined. Be so inclined, seriously, do. 

This is an old one, with 8 scenarios and even Pauline doing the sound effects - it’s vintage quality. 

Iain Duncan Smith solving housing problems instead of shagging them up for a change. 

We discussed Simon Cowell and Britain’s Got Talent; we talked Cary Grant and other golden age of Hollywood stuff; what you’d give up to work with your heroes and loads more besides. We also discussed working in a sex shop and how close to therapy retail can be.

Check out his incredible interactive show The Dark Room

Celebrities (including Tim Minchin) lying to you to make you feel special, and how we feel special because of it.

Teachers without Qualifications is not as good as Doctors without Borders. 

Science Museum puppetry and the sexual mores of the Divorced Aussie Dad. 

How do they wash their balls in the Big Lebowski? Like this!

A passable impression of a Venus flytrap with the soul of Tom Waits, reference is made to the Singing Frog of Looney Tunes (Part 1 and Part 2)

Sadly, we couldn’t understand his wise and hilarious words because we have forgotten how to speak Baby. Huge kudos to Athena for multitasking like a boss and enormous thanks to her for being so generous with her time. 


We learned about the amazing Yaa Asantewaa, Ghanaian queen mother and rebel, we speculated on the sell by date of Cleopatra’s ass milk - the milk from a donkey, you sicko. And whether Serena Williams would be a good Roman Emperor. Spoiler: YES! 


We also slagged off builders big time. And then we slagged off their boss, but speculated on the kind of dinner that would be enough to induce us to spend time with someone who destroyed our children’s dreams. 


We talk about running and sports. And Rhianna. In the same scenario.


Athena fails to understand the rules and then gets put in charge of the whole country. 


And it’s a really interesting chat about lots of political things.


And we’ve got a gambler on our hands... but will she win? 


And if you like Judi Love there’s a nice story about her.

Louise’s preferred Elvis, Juliet’s preferred Elvis, for your reference (and delectation, if that’s how you choose to delectate). And the best ever biopic featuring Miriam Margolyes is ruined by a member of the cabinet. Again. And SPOILERS for the Usual Suspects, which came out 26 years ago, so really that’s on you.

And some terrible dog behaviour that isn’t by Diggory the podcast dog. And how a nightmare trip to India could be even worse. It’s an absolute blinder of an episode. Please do enjoy!

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: 

Fatiha smashed it on the Russell Howard Hour the other week. 


She was an absolute joy to have on the podcast, even though Pauline was FULL of cold!  


We slagged off the worst boss - Wiggy McBadBreath, we discussed dancing to plants, childhood career goals, can you rely on fellow comedian Esther Manito? 


Why are we keeping a duck in a cupboard? Tory party chair Baroness Varsi comes up in the weirdest way, 


So much Biscoff Spread-based Gluttony. Terrible first dates which can be redeemed by great food. 


Singalonga Dionne Warwick, the best party in the world 


Red flags from Matt Damon. Quoi de neuf? 


And letting Dwayne the Rock Johnson lick your hand.

A distant hairdryer perhaps?  Or a pet snake? 


Jackie Weaver is one of the funniest guests on the podcast, with a gorgeous dry sense of humour and an incredibly expressive face, which had us in stitches a lot of the time. We hope this comes across! 


We put her in a situation where two worlds collide with Anton Du Beke, and see what would happen if her father in law was a certain patronising backbencher - and how absolutely dim Louise is when it comes to hints as to his identity. 


Jackie Weaver’s lovely husband Stuart and his terrible dog/stairs related accident. 


Will Jackie be carried away by Richard Gere, or is he just here for her brand new telly? 


We give her the chance to live out her fantasy as Captain of the SS Enterprise, but absolutely ruin it with Andrew Lloyd Webber. Check out Jackie Weaver Merch on Etsy, if you want to support small artists who are exploiting her image! 


Is she going to take this cool job on the latest comedy panel show? Oh no she isn’t. 


She’s an absolute bastion of mischievous midlife and WASPI-ish humour. What a delight to share an hour of chit-chat and banter!

Welcome to the Eyre-Leigh Doors community! Here’s what’s in your show today: 

Final episode in the series! It was recorded at the Brighton Fringe at Sweet Venues, definitely not in a toilet. Apologies that it does sound a little toilety. 


A very funny, sweet, thoughtful episode nonetheless and well worth tuning your ears into. 


Of course, Jurgen Klopp features (read Laura’s book, please do!) and, quite frankly, Laura disgraces herself in a way that only she could (well, and Louise. It’s based on a story from Louise’s life) 


Laura turns down the chance to live in a haunted house with the ghost of a GP’s receptionist. Not surprising, really. More surprising, though, she shuns a lengthy produce-based #ramblechat with much-loved podcaster Adam Buxton AND the chance to be in a double act with Jennifer Aniston. But why? And how? 


And what’s going on with Gary Barlow and the football? 


She explains her spat with Piers Morgan and why she doesn’t respect him. It’s not just because he has a ‘slap me’ face, which surprised Louise no end. 


No surprises whom she chooses to spend time with in another dimension, but some disappointment when she learns she could be hanging out with Danny DeVito if she’d held on a bit longer. 


Still, we have the joy of the newest detective agency, Stumpy and Stumpy, a crime-fighting duo with the biggest of brains (and the shortest of legs) 


But that’s the nature of the game… Have a lovely time (enjoy!)

Kathryn Mather is a young comedian on the up. We presented her with a Coronation Street legend, the chance of a streetlight worth making a documentary about and a cabinet minister with a lot on her plate - most of it stinky sweat gravy.


There's extremely strong language on the subject of Gordon Ramsay and an astonishing public proposal from a madman.


Kathryn is fast on her way to being the 'pride of our alley', but how does she feel about Rochdale's other favourite daughter?


Share this cracking episode with the people at YOUR bottom-strengthening class - and maybe the ones at your top-strengthening class too! Let's get the word out there!


Here's your brief synopsis: (warning: spoilers!)


On holiday with Anne Kirkbride 

Street fighting with Louis Theroux 

Living with the taxidermied body of Marcus Rashford

Squeezing your stinky sweat gravy on to the plate of Priti Patel

Reference to Priti’s eyebrows -

The word Louise is looking for is “hustler”

Extremely strong language on the subject of Gordon Ramsay 

An astonishing public proposal from a madman Can we have a picture of Pauline’s hair at her wedding, PLEASE? 

Forgetting herself at a Taylor Swift concert.

Knitting nancy gets an honorable mention 

Your vagina is haunted by Gracie Fields

]]> Oh wow - what a blinder of an episode!


Kathryn Mather is a young comedian on the up. We presented her with a Coronation Street legend, the chance of a streetlight worth making a documentary about and a cabinet minister with a lot on her plate - most of it stinky sweat gravy.


There's extremely strong language on the subject of Gordon Ramsay and an astonishing public proposal from a madman.


Kathryn is fast on her way to being the 'pride of our alley', but how does she feel about Rochdale's other favourite daughter?


Share this cracking episode with the people at YOUR bottom-strengthening class - and maybe the ones at your top-strengthening class too! Let's get the word out there!


Here's your brief synopsis: (warning: spoilers!)


On holiday with Anne Kirkbride 

Street fighting with Louis Theroux 

Living with the taxidermied body of Marcus Rashford

Squeezing your stinky sweat gravy on to the plate of Priti Patel

Reference to Priti’s eyebrows -

The word Louise is looking for is “hustler”

Extremely strong language on the subject of Gordon Ramsay 

An astonishing public proposal from a madman Can we have a picture of Pauline’s hair at her wedding, PLEASE? 

Forgetting herself at a Taylor Swift concert.

Knitting nancy gets an honorable mention 

Your vagina is haunted by Gracie Fields

If you're playing ELD Bingo, you can take a drink when the sadistic teacher appears (what is WITH that??) and the cabinet minister - find out what happened when Joz met Michael Gove.


This episode also includes accidentally parachuting into a burning car (as you do),  comedy on ice with your best mate and being saved from major head injury by a comedy moose costume. 


It's also got:

BRILLIANT behind the scenes info about Celebrity Squares - a bit of gossip that will genuinely delight you!

Career advice for Van Morrison 

and terrible thievery that made Pauline both disgusted and excited. It’s Bowie-related (surprise!)

Timely, given that we release 24 hours after the story of his raging affair with his aide.

She also turns down the chance to have an encounter with a great white shark but be rescued by a “sexy Greta Thunburg” and the chance to be trapped in her own farts with a children’s book character. 

If you’re playing “recurring celebrities bingo”, you can put a cross through Sandi Toksvig. 

A lengthy discussion of the different kinds of playground skipping and far too much asking young girls to be on dates.

And will Heidi take the opportunity to be BFFs with a young Hugh Grant? Of course! 

Instant regrets as she misses out on doing an escape room with Thor star, the Chris that is Hemsworth. 

Heidi tells us about her love of B Movies and the teacher who ruined her life, but didn’t remember traumatising her. 


Heidi Regan, @heidi_regan on Twitter, check out her Radio 4 Comedy Series out Wednesday 30th June here


Also given an honourable mention, the dubbed series of Heidi, which has proved pretty hard to find, but the theme tune is here, Gen X nostalgia-fans

But, you know, she *may* have ruined Louise's life in the 90s so we have to start with that.


Because of Cally's years of work as a top telly executive and as a sought-after comedian and speaker, the celebrity name-dropping is plentiful. We have Elton John at Cally's beck and call, Sandi Toksvig on a dashboard and Joan Rivers like you've never imagined her before. She would approve. Possibly.


Yes a yam is used in a way that only the sickest of minds could imagine, yes there is chat about raising kids in the 21st Century, why imposter syndrome reigns in even the most successful-looking people and a tale of ice cream corruption.


We chat midlife superpowers, the joy of shoplifting and other ways to get your adrenaline fix. Oh, and you should the terrible thing that happens to Oprah Winfrey!


In the show, Cally and Pauline share their love of comedian Richard Todd, whose show you can watch on Next Up Comedy if you're a member there, or better still seek him out live near your home. They also mention the hilarious Nathan Cassidy. Check him out if you get a chance.


In other news, if you are around this weekend (19th/20th June) in Brighton, you can get 2-4-1 tickets to our live editions by turning up at the Sweet Venues box office and saying the magic words: "Choose it or Lose it" . So tell your friends. The venue will be beautifully socially distant and Covid Secure.

Tickets to our Brighton Fringe shows will sell out - if you buy them all! Make it happen for us here. Shows are on 19th June with Susan Murray and 20th June with Laura Lexx. Buy tickets here!


Award winning comedian Philip Simon, host of podcast Jew Talkin' To Me? and ex Daddy Pig regales us with stories of kicking Brenda Blethyn, inspirational teachers and what happens when you meet yourself in a cafe. Or is it you? Or is it a remake of Being John Malkovich starring David Mitchell?


He's got stories of when The People from Hellmans Dijonaise couldn't understand about hair gel and why - in spite of his massive crush - he might not let Rachel Riley raise his children.


We also discuss whether Deborah Meaden would lend you her slacks in a squeeze, partying at the Palace (not the nightclub in Bridgewater) and Mollie Ringwald in pranksterish mode. So if you love Dragon's Den, the Pretty in Pink, Royal Weddings, inappropriate drawings on children's theatre costumes, this is the listen for you.


Of course there's the worst first gig story we've ever heard, with a triumphant response from Philip, we introduce Philip to the concept of Wayne Lineker.

Andrew White (@standupAndrew) is our guest this week. He’s terribly young, terribly talented and terribly nice - don’t you hate people like that?? 


At 18, he was already an accomplished performer of several solo shows, and coped with the difficult dilemma of whether to accept a place at university or pursue comedy full-time - not an easy decision.  


His celebrity crush makes memorable appearance in this game, as does his comedy hero and his parents’ delightful (ahem) neighbour Joy.


He reminisces about his TITANIC struggle to keep a secret hookup secret, and this is the second mention on our podcast (see Stu Goldsmith episode) of that classic English career, being a jester. For our American listeners, there is, of course, a jester in every castle in every village in the whole of Englandland; they’re just an everyday feature of 21st Century life here!!


Just a small content warning - you may not want to be eating takeaway pizza while you listen to this one - unless you too have unsavoury habits with your dipping sauce. Saucy indeed…

Of course, you know her because you love Bad Girls, or Eastenders, or Downton Abbey or any other of her brilliant body of work.

 

Prepare to hear some behind-the-scenes stories from the British Indie Film scene, Eastenders-based chit-chat and the skinny on what the correct course of action is to do if you find an unseemly lump in your trousers. 

 

Simone slags off Dame Maggie Smith, reveals the worst way to deal with a crush on set and why she’s really pleased wearing a face mask means she can essentially go out in disguise. 

 

She also talks about her relationships with Danny Dyer, Robson Green and a device to help a lady do a standing up wee. 

 

We covered so much ground, including Scottish cuisine - a speciality called the Gazinty - her bitty little doggy, and the perils of chaperoning her daughter, child actor Skye Degruttola.

 

Hope you enjoy the show.

We cover a lot of ground: Street performing, spontaneity, parenting WhatsApp Groups, meeting your heroes, conversations you'd rather do differently and whether Boutros Boutros-Ghali's soul is travelling through time in different bodies. Funny, philosophical, moving. It's an absolute smasher.


Image of a Mindflayer, here's Storm Shadow, and you might enjoy John Robins and Anthony Livingspace who all get a mention. No need to introduce Tom Cruise, Noel Fielding and Lenny Henry.

We offer her the chance to meet her heroes - but will she take up the offers or gamble on something better coming along?


Featuring:


  • Brad Pitt singing Chas'n'Dave
  • borrowing stagewear from Freddie Mercury
  • being Married at First Sight to a singer we didn't even know was Welsh
  • Oscar-winning Reply Guys
  • the extraordinary facial talent that makes Sooz a QUADRUPLE THREAT


Also featuring the sound of a dog destroying an entire A4 refill pad (no animals were harmed in the making of this podcast - however tempting it may have been...)


Recorded live on Zoom with www.funnywomen.com


If you do nothing else life-enriching today, check out Sooz on Twitter: www.twitter.com/soozuk and our instagram feed for pictures of Sooz's amazing talent (and maybe the odd one of the dog).


As promised, here's an image of Patty Hearst - no, wait, that's Sooz - Patty Hearst.
