Shooting Ropes
Two Pink Dancers with Mike Rice (#001)
Ep. 1
•
Saddle up for the first ever episode of Shooting Ropes! A weekly podcast where you can hang and bang with two of Scotland’s best stand-up comedians, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd and Rosco McClelland. With brilliant guests, close-to-the-bone humour, genuine friendship, and a vaguely western theme.
Take aim, cock your head, shoot your rope.
Our first ever guest is the wonderful Mike Rice (@MikeRiceComedy, Mike & Vittorio's Guide To Parenting)
The boys talk their way through the mysteries of the universe, from competing for Mike's vote as the better opener to the extra-curricular habits of elder dogs and of course the Aztec Winged Serpent God, Quetzalcōātl. All this and more on this week's, Shooting Ropes!
