In this hastily re-recorded episode the guys sort of read The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, but spend most of the time bickering about little things and at one point Sean coughs because he ate too many grapes. This episode is notable for containing Jonny's impression of a Mexican. Que Beuno!

How To Have A Successful Podcast (with Ed Gamble)

Tue, 05 Apr 2022 05:00:10 GMT

The podcast is off to a shaky start so we've called in the cavalry in the form of comedian and 'Off Menu' host Ed Gamble. Ed gives us some amazing tips on how to make Failing Better the biggest podcast in the world, from making sure we speak well to making sure the episodes are actually good. It's a masterclass. Also we discuss funny celebrity encounters, there's a further Bastille development and Jonny causes Sean to have an argument with a bus driver. Great fun all round.

Please subscribe and give us a nice review. Why not?
