Ep. 375 - Simon Brodkin

Comedian Simon Brodkin is probably best known for his comedy character Lee Nelson and his pranks including giving Teressa May a P45 during her Prime Minister’s speech at the Tory Party Conference, showered Sepp Blatter with dollar bills, surrounded Donald Trump with swastika golf balls, and starred in Britain’s Greatest Hoaxer on Channel 4, which was nominated for ‘Best Documentary’ at the Monte Carlo TV Festival. Simon wrote and stared in in three series of BBC Three’s Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show & Well Funny People. Simon is one of the most exciting comedians to see live and his current 110-date international ‘Screwed Up’ tour has been extended for a third time due to phenomenal demand, including a second show at London’s prestigious Hammersmith Apollo .


Simon Brodkin is guest number 375 on My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things he'd like to put in a time capsule; four he’d like to preserve and one he’d like to bury and never have to think about again .

  • Ep. 380 - Stephen Fry (Re-edit)

    01:08:09
    It's the 4 year anniversary of our first episode! So to celebrate we thought we'd go right back to where it all started and re-edit Stephen Fry! In the early days we were a bit less confident than we are now and therefore our editing was a bit more ruthless than it is now, so we thought we'd re-edit Stephen's episode with a more relaxed ear. This has resulted in a much more relaxed conversation and plenty of unheard stories, jokes and a few more umms and errs. We hope you enjoy it!Stephen Fry is guest number 380 on My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things he'd like to put in a time capsule; four he’d like to preserve and one he’d like to bury and never have to think about again .Follow My Time Capsule on Twitter, Instagram & Facebook: @MyTCpod .Follow Michael Fenton Stevens on Twitter: @fentonstevens & Instagram @mikefentonstevens .Produced and edited by John Fenton-Stevens for Cast Off Productions .Music by Pass The Peas Music .Artwork by matthewboxall.com .This podcast is proud to be associated with the charity Viva!
