Aid Thompsin & Other Disappointments

News EN ↓ 456 episodes

My name is Aid. I used to do Standup. Then I had two kids. The End. Between parenthood and the pandemic, I'm finding pretty much the only way to have a social interaction with people is to literally *book in a conversation with them* (and market it as a podcast).Every guest is going to be real upset when they realise I'm not even recording them, i'm just incredibly lonely.

Here are some links i re...
