I also spend a lot of time talking about the best book about comedy I've read, which is Be Funny or Die by @gralefrit.bsky.social, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in how comedy works.

Frame #14450 from S05 -E02 - France Special - Part 2-629260

Watching the 1971 Doctor Who serial 'Inferno' by Don Houghton. It's about a fascistic regime with a potentially apocalyptic fossil fuel drilling project run by an autocratic sociopath who everyone obeys despite the fact that he's visibly unstable. This fucking old show man, I'm telling you.

He’s just a cute lil guy, leave him alone.

Never a big Narnia guy but this 6 seconds typifies everything I love about British television.

Former Prince Andrew leaving the police station after twelve hours of questioning, looking like absolute shit.

Not sure I've ever seen more artful use of redeye in a photograph.

Yes!!!

The people’s cries for more Simpsons beats have been answered!

getting into Star Trek TOS for the first time is watching a random episode that fills you with grief and a new perspective on humanity, then going on IMDb where the episode is rated 6.2/10 by fans

and then another random episode where they’re battling three witches and their black cat. also 6.2/10

That is so cool! Congratulations!

The Marnus Labuschagne Diaries Omnibus They're Finally Over

With the Ashes done and dusted, here's the final Omnibus post for the Marnus Labuschagne Diaries. Both the Marnus and Smudge Diaries have been an absolute joy to write over the years, and I'm glad I got to end them the way I wanted to.

The Collected Ramblings of Ian Chappell What it's like to pretend to be an increasingly insane Australian cricketer for just over four years

In 2021, I decided to pretend to be Ian Chappell for a joke once. Things then got out of hand. In the below link, you'll find a collection of over 60 gags based around someone pretending to be an increasingly insane cricket commentator.

Thank you so much!

And Stokes getting into it with Marnus was just me learning something about writing funny things about cricket for the umpteenth time: Never make plans, because the players will inevitably do something far funnier than you could ever think of.
