The David Eagle Podcast

This week we meet The Jesus Geezers, a cockney gospel band. Ellie has a weird dream about me and Billy Bragg. I unearth my childhood diaries. And I recount my unusual experience with an A-list celebrity in a cupboard.

Ellie and I return with semi-regular feature spammer time. There’s the clockwork-regular contribution from star pupil Olivia. Tales of door-based debacles and rude awakenings involving guns, explosions, sirens, and a duck. Plus paranormal experiences involving kids and a cat. I narrowly avoid being punched, and I inadvertently cause chaos in a swimming pool and get myself into hot water with some...

This week, I have an odd experience at a urinal. I blind a computer programmer. Ellie has a medical mishap. There’s a poem from the perspective of a piece of chewing gum. We take a walk in the park where we chat about my meeting with Jason Donovan, plus there’s more goose news, and we meet an arse-scratching squirrel; you’ll have to listen to discover if the squirrel is scratching its own arse, or...

Ellie’s fame is on the rise, and she receives a potential new career opportunity. I am surprised to find myself doing a stand up gig in a sex club, which was a very weird experience indeed. This week’s games involve guessing vegetables, identifying birds, and more biscuit-based fun. Ellie has an encounter with another blind man. A trip to the barbers gets unexpectedly political and also sexual. I’...

Ellie sees an odd and intriguing tattoo. I experience a footwear farce. I get accidentally insulted by an enthusiastic audience member. Ellie has more shelf news. I attempt to create a dance hit by sampling the radio. My recent stand up gig takes a very unexpected turn. We hear once again from the Nottingham swingers, and one of our regulars, Olivia, is back, and she’s got thoughts and a challenge...

 A comedy gig is derailed by a soap opera style scandal. My park walk this week takes an unexpected turn, as I come into contact with some errant drama students. I sing a song about a sexually frisky dog, and take you on a dramatic London adventure, involving a flirtatious train traveller and an incident at the National Portrait Gallery. Ellie celebrates International Women’s Day with some feminis...

I get rather lost in a park, where I commentate on a tennis match and have a Whitney Houston-based encounter. We have stand-up clips from Bradford and Doncaster. We’re in London, listening in to conversations between sweary students and argumentative pensioners. There’s a new feature, Ellie Skinner’s On the Shelf, and the return of the catchily named Technological Regression Masquerading As Techno...

We scientifically validate whether Ellie was happier on her wedding day or on her trip to Ramsay Street in our feature Neighbours or Nuptials. It’s the return of Cassette Roulette, where I make a rather shocking and harrowing find. Ellie teaches me a new activity in the bedroom and tells us about the time she was a stripper. I head to Bath, where I follow Nigel Farage. We go on another crime-solvi...

We are approached by the daughter of a dictator in Spammer Time. Join me in the bath for an explosive experience, and I conduct an experiment involving cold water and Vera Lynn. I’ve been back on the dark web to unearth some lost musical treasures, and this time it’s an unheard gem from Guns N. Roses. We go for a walk to try and thwart a murder. There’s a couple of stories about guide dogs, and we...

My gig in Somerset takes an unexpected turn when a heckling pensioner becomes rather flirtatious. Ellie has a run-in with a call centre scammer and is assaulted by a roast dinner on the streets of Sheffield. New exciting features include the catchily named Technological Regression Masquerading As Technological Progression, and What’s That Biscuit. Plus, more 100% accurate celebrity impressions fro...

From the podcast that brought you the exclusive first plays from Gina G and Lou Bega, this week we hear an unreleased song from Little Richard as he pays homage to his hero, Spike Milligan. We feature clips from The Young'uns live at Middlesbrough Town Hall and Winchester Cathedral. Join me for some meditation with a twist, play along with Ellie's Fame Game, and, to prove that we do listen...

 This week’s podcast features confusing conversations with computers. Henry II and Simon Cowell have a difference of opinion regarding the musical merits of farting. My idiosyncratic performance of Flight Of the Bumblebee gets a cold reception. And Ellie goes to Laos, where she meets with Dominic Monaghan who’s recovering from an altercation with a lizard, and becomes embroiled in a gambling scam....

 This week we share anecdotes about Louis van Gaal, Miles Jupp, Elis James, John Robins, Fern Brady and George Ezra. We join Bob Dylan in a youth hostel, and we receive an email from Lou Bega, with his brand new song. Plus Ellie tries to contact Joe Cocker, but to no avail, because he’s been dead for twelve years. Chapters (00:00:00) Jan 15 - ON A Plane With Louis van Gaal (00:13:17) Jan 16 - Fern...

 You rejoin us in the middle of our holiday in Marrakesh, where we become dramatically stranded in a ford, meet a funky imam, and pit three Moroccan teas against each other in our first non-European Herbal Tea Of The Week. Plus, I perform for a group of swingers, get attacked by two birds, and have another interesting backside-related experience—those three things aren’t related. We also enter the...

We’re back. The plan is to record something every day and then release weekly. This week: Join me in the bath with a pair of geese, a call to my bank takes a sordid and confusing turn, and Ellie and I have some weird massage experiences. Plus, we go abroad, but I don’t know where we’re going. Find out where we land and what we do in the first in a new weekly series of The David Eagle Podcast. It’s...

 The David Eagle Podcast returns with a bumper bunker-based Herbal Tea Of The Week, as we visit a tea house in Slovakia, situated in a bomb shelter. Six teas from six different countries go to war, but which one will be triumphant. Plus we talk about various recent stand up comedy gigs, including playing to a room of screaming, crying babies, performing for the military, and a surprisingly harrowi...

Last weekend The Young'uns did a very mini Christmas tour and here is a compilation of clips from those gigs, in a podcast hilariously titled Merry Gigsmas.

We weren't planning on playing clips from our wedding on the podcast, primarily because we thought it would be boring for you: "I do" "I Will" "to have and to hold" etc etc. But then the wedding turned out to be a bit more exciting than anticipated. Listen to find out why.

We head back thirty years to my eighth birthday in Cassette Roulette; we learn about a mad Victorian scientist's experiments with monkey testicles in Ellie Skinner's Weekly Animal Penis fact; and we visit Biscuit And brew Tea House in Nottingham for Herbal Tea Of The week. Plus I reveal the Fine Young Cannibals' dirty little secret, we hear of a highly unusual fetish and I collaborate...

We're joined by our good friend, the velvet voiced author and raconteur Matthew Crampton. He hosts our first animal penis fact quiz, live from Folk East Festival in Suffolk. He also accompanies us on our London tea based adventure for a multifaceted Herbal Tea Of The Week. Plus there's a very weird Spammer time courtesy of eliza carthy and yet another harrowing journey story.

This week's The David Eagle Podcast is all over the place, in both senses of the phrase. I return from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival having met some interesting characters including a chatty undertaker and a teenager in the woods with a rather confusing proposition. I have a near-death experience in Loughborough, cause chaos in a swimming pool in Sheffield, and Herbal Tea Of The week comes liv...

This week we celebrate the life of one of my musical comedy heroes, Grant Baynham, who passed away on July 29th. Here you can spend forty minutes in his company as he regales us with songs, stories and silliness, plus he even takes part in everyone's favourite feature, Herbal Tea Of The week.

We're back in the studio with the return of regular features. Spammer time, where we meet a rather flirtatious IT teacher; Cassette Roulette provides us with some very weird and intriguing 90s radio clips, and Ellie Skinner's Weekly Animal Penis Fact turns its attention on the fox. Plus, another harrowing journey story, I become a role model for kids and we discover my unusual stage walk-o...

Come with me on a comedy road trip as I travel From Hull down to Brighton, performing comedy to pensioners, students and even a room full of babies. Step this way for jokes, anecdotes, an array of highly unusual heckles, plus a collection of colourful characters including a very keen doorman, an unscrupulous cemetery officer, a B&B owner with a penchant for pranks, and of course Jimmy the porn...

Happy new year. Here's part 2 of our podcast that features some highlights from 2021. Two animal themed quizzes starring folk musician Alex Cumming and comedian Paul Silky White; my dance hit inspired by an angry Australian bloke shouting about his penis; the story of my first foray into stand up comedy at the age of five; and a very weird radio show from my fourteen-year-old self.   Feel free...
