The David Eagle Podcast

A selection of podcast highlights from 2021. Spot popping, Princess Margaret erotica, Phil Nichol plays an adult quiz "courtesy" of our anti-social neighbours; there's an epic, surreal military-based drama, weird Christian music, and more. Part 2 is released New Year's Day. Feel free to chuck some pennies into our Podcast PayPal pot at davideagle.co.uk   Happy new year.  

It's our Christmas podcast, featuring a Christmas Miracle courtesy of a seasonal Spammer Time, some ramshackle Christmas rapping, a Christmas quiz (with a special guest), A Christmassy cassette Roulette, Christmas animal Penis facts, a festive Herbal Tea Of The week, and lots more.  

It's quite a quiz-heavy podcast this week. Test your 90s music knowledge, are you more intelligent than the average listener to a late night Teesside radio quiz show? And can you deduce the film that I am recreating with my incredible acting skills? Other questions included in this week's podcast: why is there a Norwegian architect in my bed? Are there any teenagers called Nigel? And have...

Nowadays David Eagle is a respected and indeed revered songwriter, with such classic hits to his name as Killing My Dog for Satan and What A C**t. This week we get an insight into his songwriting genius as we listen into the process of his fifteen year old self creating a new song from scratch. This is a must-listen for budding songwriters, or even established songwriters looking to up their game....

David has an awkward pistachio nut based incident with comedian Tom wrigglesworth. We receive a video from a listener featuring some rather odd night-time noises which may or may not be inspired by my anecdote on last week's podcast about the time I accidentally made a sex tape. Plus more odd spam emails and a new exciting feature with a new exciting jingle.

Join me in the kitchen for two tales of tube-based altercation, and the story of that time I made an accidental sex tape.

Featuring Boney M news, a very moving tribute to John Challis. A triplet of teas culminates our Herbal Tea Of The Week series, but only one tea can be crowned king of the cold brews. Plus more desultory DJing, captioning confusion and a cornucopia of characters, including our new Australian podcast producer and the return of Tom from the 90s Ford Jennings North East radio commercial.

Can a monitor lizard love you? Can trains fly? And what do you get when you cross frank Spencer with a Labrador Retriever? It might well be our cold brew series, but nevertheless things are really hotting up in Herbal Tea Of The week. Plus eccentric DJing, weird radio commercials, unusual impressions, and a story about a dog infiltrating our theatre show  

We are invited to join the illuminati, Ellie gets into a street fight, and we receive some surreal sex education from a weird old woman.

More train travel tribulations, a nerdy shoutout, a disturbing infomercial, the FBI get in touch, and how will this week's cold brew herbal tea fare?

At 11pm on Saturday 31st July I was turfed out onto the street by Britannia Sachas Hotel in Manchester, despite having booked and paid for a room. They had sold my room on to someone else at a higher cost. Last week I devised a plan to gain my revenge on Britannia Hotels. I wrote a song about them, contacted the newspapers, sent emails, Facebook invites and tweets to fellow folk singers and comedi...

More tales from being on the road doing stand up comedy. Last week's adventure was nearly being beaten up outside a rough Kent pub. This week I am unexpectedly turfed out onto the rainy streets of Manchester late at night. IN complete contrast to that, we celebrate the return of our ability to once again smell and taste by sampling and reviewing a herbal tea. We have yet another Arch Bishop Of...

This week I did my most surreal stand up gig by far, and fortunately for you I recorded it. So press play and join me in a rough rowdy pub in Kent for the "highlights", one of which being a bloke threatening to kick the shit out of me.

Covid-based isolation isn't enough to keep me and Ellie from recording a podcast. We've miced up separate parts of the house to talk some more about testicles and to bring you your favourite features, Cassette Roulette and Spammer Time, but not Herbal Tea Of The Week because we can't smell or taste anything. This week's guest is comedian and taxi driver Trevor Bickles who recounts...

The bad news is I've got Covid so I've had to cancel all my festivals and gigs until the 24th July. The good news is that you are still allowed contact with me through the medium of podcast. So listen in for some gig anecdotes, including the tale of the rather harrowing experience my dad had during one of my stand up nights.

This week, a gay animals themed quiz; Elton John based dog puns; dodgy radio adverts; more stories of harrowing journeys, and more penis trivia; plus all your favourite features: Herbal Tea Of The Week, Cassette Roulette and Spammer Time.

It's the final Potato News. Never mind Euro 2020, if you want high drama and compelling competition then check out this week's Herbal Tea Of The Week. We go down a rabbit hole due to a mysterious message left on an answerphon twenty-seven years ago; and the police get involved.

Phil Nichol returns to sample a herbal tea with us, tell a tale of a cold call confrontation, and shares two stories of harrowing journeys. Plus the penultimate Potato News, and there's a surprise appearance from Ann Widdecombe.

This week I've been doing online school workshops during the day and stand up gigs on the night, and surprisingly my best heckle came from a primary school child. Hear all about that, a clip from my surreal stand up gig in Liverpool, an epic tale of train travel trauma, Ellie has been secretly recording me, plus the regular features and lots of miscellaneous chat.

Back in the studio this week after a week of stand up comedy gigs, including a rather odd one in Liverpool where I had an altercation with five drunk loud-mouthed girls. The story of that, plus incongruous radio adverts; there's a bit of slapstick in a cupboard, epic flailing mouth trumpet solos, and the return of an old faithful feature with a bit of a twist.

Finally, I'm back out gigging, and I have plenty of stories to share. So this week I go for a walk by the river to impart those tales to you, but get a bit sidetracked by Millwall FC supporting birds and rampant dogs.

This week's podcast is full of contrast and contradiction. While it may  be our most angry, sweary episode, it's also probably our cutest, sweetest episode, as I recount a tale about my teddy bear Bingo, and how it led to my first comedy performance at the age of five. There's altruistic rapping, a spot of embezzlement, and can our glorious socialist potato-based utopia prevail?

Warning, there's nothing erotic going on, and we have the video to prove it. There's rhubarb frolics, I release a damp squib over Christina Aguilera, and when it comes to potatoes I don't have it in me.  There's Comical Columbian Commentary, a half-arse music quiz, and we receive a cryptic proposition from the International Monetary Fund.

Chumbawamba are globally ubiquitous for their song Tubthumping, appearing on numerous one-hit-wonder compilation albums. But Chumbawamba are no flash in the pan pop group. They were a band for thirty years from 1982 to 2012 and Boff Whalley was there for it all. Enter the crazy multifaceted world of Chumbawamba in this instalment of The David Eagle Podcast.

It's National Tea Day and The David eagle Podcast is more than ready to rise to the occasion. We've got tea facts, tea jokes, tea-themed audio clips and a variety of tea themed items, including the final instalment of our epic Herbal Tea battle; who will be crowned ultimate champion tea? plus there are more controversies and dramatic announcements to bring you   as the integrity of our tea...
