Stinger
In the fifth and final of our live, daily podcasts from the Underbelly in Edinburgh [be patient, it's on its technological way], we had our first almost lethally hot one, with sweat dripping down the walls of the Belly Laugh almost as if solely to prove that some cliches are true. Although it is Sunday and thus there is no news in the newpapers, we managed to extract something out of News Of The World's Kerry Katona video, the travails of Danielle Lloyd and Michael Jackson's Frankenchildren, while - as has become tradition in Edinburgh - lightly and affectionately insulting anyone in the front row. Thanks to Tony, who gave us the alcoholic ginger beer [pictured by Gordon, above]; the band The Smoking Rolo Sideshow, who gave us the big box of 60 Stinger chews, which we handed out as if it was Sunday school; and our unofficial photographer Gordon, who gave us the Green Party rosettes. Incidentally, we remain filthily sponsored by Profanity App, whose sales have dipped a little, but I'm sure you can remedy that. Incidentally - this podcast is about 5 seconds shorter than normal, not because of a glitch caused by rivulets of sweat dripping into the laptop, but because, as you'll hear, I was legally bound to remove a certain untrue claims that Richard kept repeating just so that I would have to come back to the flat and painstakingly remove it. Here's the front row in full, complete with empty chair (how did that happen? we sold out the whole run?) ...

Now to therapy.
alcoholic ginger beer sounds good as do the stinger chews. There is a beer Hugh Fearnly Whittinstall makes from stinging nettles called stinger it is very light and refreshing and summery and slightly tingy on the tounge.
All that hard work editing out the legally questionable comments and you still managed to miss one. Oh dearie me.

By the way, I think you've really nailed the live podcast 'dynamic', and I think I now prefer it to the studio album version. Maybe you could do it live every week!
Seriously, if you've spotted a "legal" please can you tell me exactly where it is?
@ Roughly 51.22, the shortened version of the word is repeated.
Andrew, this is for you:

That looks like so much fun. I'll definitely be there next year. Will you do a show for every day in August 2010?
This was mah favourite pod cast, I was overwhelmed and excited to be mentioned @11:59-13:12 “a bloke called Karl a nice regular person who comes on” I recall being hesitant to send that comment as I didn’t want to imply you are Andrew Ridgeley to Herrings George Michael it was intended as a cheeky joke, it got a big laugh from the audience, but I hope it didn’t offend you as you are really more like Tina Turner to Richards abusive Ike Turner. when you split up you will go on to eclipse your sadistic partner and show that you’re Simply the best.
I went through to check if there was any legal things to remove all I could see was…
24:34 Richard said “Their all paedophiles at Cambridge”
24:50 “if you can find one person at Cambridge who hasn’t fucked a kid, I‘ll give you a million pounds”
25:12 “most of them have fucked a kid though”
25:16 “If you wanna sue me with that go ahead that’s staying in the pod cast”
26:26 “what are you doing at Cambridge? Paedophile studies?”
28:57”Danielle Lloyd the famous footballers girlfriend, and racist, and racist yeah”
31:42”she was racist on TV in front of millions of people”
33:40”What happened to the other racist one from BB from SC7 oh Jo O’Meara”
58:56 Andrew Collins said ”I hate myself and I want to die”
I hope that last one wasn't true as it is a bit depressing, cheer up Andrew we all love you. Maybe stop reading Naomi Klein type stuff for a bit I know it can get me down aswell to think of all the terrible things in the world. remember the eric idle song always look at the bright side of life or something you know go birdspotting.
Hope karaoki circus goes well.
Just wanted to thank you for the live podcasts. It was amazing how consistently funny they were over five consecutive days. Being live suits you both.
Any plans to make the live podcast a regular/semi-regular thing?
Murdoch is trying to monetise his shit-spouting, so surely you can make some money from talking bollocks.
Have just got back from Edinburgh today after a stop over in the Peak District at my mate's house who accompanied me on this most enjoyable of jaunts to Scotland. (Andrew, your train Twitter updates today have really made me laugh on my train journey today re the cat on the lady's lap and you taking covert pictures with your laptop. Hope you get to see the Angel of the North later this week on your trek back up to Edinburgh. That's dedication for you).
Really, really enjoyed the podcasts and attending has added a new dimension to them as when I listen to future ones I can now see how intensly Andrew listens to Richard when he's talking, it really is quite sweet. Shame the same couldn't be said about Richard, who as we know, is more in love with his iphone than his girlfriend. Perhaps.
Have spotted myself on a few photos (including Gordon's toilet queue one, though it is in fact a queue to get into the podcast, the toilets are just, like, there).
Thank you for signing my WDIAGR 'talking book' Andrew, and for having your photo taken with me. It made my day and I went a little girlie and shy when I spoke to you otherwise I would have said a bit more to you. You are just as sweet and lovely as I thought you would be.
The breaking of the Tempting Tattie was a sight to behold and fun to be part of though we didn't stay for a tattie on Saturday (but had had a 'Richard Herring' the day before) as the lure of a 3 course lunch at Harvey Nichols was just too strong, sorry.
I heart Andrew Collins (I may get a T-shirt made with that on...)
I like the bit where you call Richard a fucker. Genuine moment of frustration?
I love my threesome picture. Very dark impressionist.
You learn something new everyday: I never knew Woody Allen went to Cambridge, or what he did when he got there. Thanks.
Blimey O'Reilly it was hot in there.
I only went to one of the podcasts, and am therefore only 20% of the fan I could be.
Count me in on the "I heart Andrew Collins" T shirt. Maybe we could have "He's mah favourite jobbing journo" on the back.
