Chatabix

Big Oval Plate

Comedians Joe Wilkinson & David Earl chat utter drivel to each other 3 - 5 days a week. They natter to celebrities and deep dive into guests with interesting lives (as theirs is so boring). Occasionally they plan a surprise for each other to pep it up a bit. David loves hearing about behind the scenes stuff from TV shows and writing jingles. Joe likes adventuring and is obsessed with the podcast charts. Sometimes they'll embark on a day out podding together just so they can get out of the house. It's a brilliantly chaotic podcast which occasionally covers regular topics like TV Reviews, Snooker, Canal boating and Music.

S16 Ep 900: David’s Mega Holiday Debrief - Part 1
Via the magic of podcasting, David is now back from his epic summer family holiday and has so much to tell us about it. Although, he’s strangely reluctant at first. But once Joe’s warmed him up with some news of his recent trip to the Isle of Wight, David starts to recount the first few days of the holiday. There’s picking up their camper van, their first night at a Yeovil camp-sight, the journey to Calais, onto a Eurocamp at Bruges and a very disturbing late night smell. After the decidedly slow start, this becomes an epic three part tale - and part two's coming tomorrow… FOR ALL THINGS CHATABIX'Y FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE/CONTACT: YouTube Instagram TikTok Patreon Merch Email us at chatabix@yahoo.com Hosted on Acast.

S16 Ep 897: David’s Holiday Departure
It’s the day before David embarks on his month-long campervan holiday, touring around Europe with his family. So he and Joe use today’s show to have a run through of all David’s hopes, fears and preparations for the adventure ahead of him. And also talk about something for 15 minutes that we can’t put out, so it’s a sightly shorter show than it would have been otherwise. As the trip actually began in late July and David’s been away for most of August, some of the timings do become a little topsy-turvey - but it should all make sense in the end. Happy listening!

On today’s show, David tells Joe about a suspicious ‘cold-call’ gardener he’s just been speaking with, they both recount tales of rouge traders they’ve used in the past and David attempts some online investigations. Then, as Joe’s been staying in Bristol for the past few days where he went to art college in his early 20s, he really noticed the different way he experienced the city as a 51 year old.

S16 Ep 885: David’s Test Match Special
David’s just had a magical day at the Trent Bridge Test Match in Nottingham, made even more special as he and his family met Ben Stokes outside the grounds beforehand. Little did they know that later that day Ben would be announcing his retirement from international cricket. So it was a big day for all concerned - and David wants to tell Joe everything about it. They also discuss direct messages, getting autographs, the wonderful Andy Zaltzman and if they could ever blag a job as a sports commentator. For those in the know, this episode was obviously recorded a little earlier in the summer.
