I have just listened to Ep54 in its entirety, and I'm sorry to say that I didn't like it. Now it could be that the style of humour simply does not fit my own as opposed to it being bad in any way.
I didn't like the sound effects or the way the material flowed. I just found this a little irritating to be honest. I thought your observations were nothing new, they've all been heard before and I didn't find them funny. The Cliff Richard segment was quite good until the end when you ruined it with the 'you f**in virgin' comment.
The section on trouser bulge/muffin tops went on far to long in my opinion and I was waiting for something funny to happen but it didn't. The section on Jesus and birthday is again somethingthat's old hat. The bit about him commiting suicide was a bit confusing also. The Santa/Peado section was also in the same category of see it before.
For a good portion of the time it sounded like you were laughing at your own jokes and observations. I think it's good that you dig your material but I got the impression that the whole thing was like a collection of dities to amuse yourself with as opposed to amuse an audience.
The above does sound somewhat negative when I read it back. I respect that you have put these podcasts together and I would say you are definitely good at that aspect. Like I said above, your podcast probably just doesn't gel with my sort of humour but I thought I'd give my honest opinion as I did take the time to listen to the whole episode.
Def.
