Springleaf - En podcast af James Acaster / Mighty Bunny

Kategorier:

Rosie Jones, the most notorious bully on the comedy circuit, joins Pat and Adams in the studio this week as events really start to come to a head. Sita tells Pat an uncomfortable truth, which is a devastating blow for someone with a pathological need to be liked. Clarke also drops a bombshell - the sort of bombshell with 'you're fired' written on the side. And worlds collide when Pat decides to leverage his position on the Only Joking team to spring Lawrence from the big house, culminating in a bad day for Hugh Dennis...A true(ish) crime podcast, which sees undercover cop Pat Springleaf (James Acaster) share police wire recordings from the biggest case of his career: working to infiltrate and bring to justice the notorious SW6 gang.Back in 2013, ex-conman-turned-undercover-cop Pat was in the middle of a career-defining undercover gig - but problems beset him on all sides: the gang are getting suspicious; his wife wants a divorce; the police are demanding results; and his ex partner in crime is blackmailing him. Not an ideal situation for someone with a burning need to please absolutely everybody. In 2023, meanwhile, Pat and his producer Adams play clips to studio guests as they unpack the criminal hijinks that launched the career of the man now reasonably widely-known as James Acaster.Featuring:Chloe Petts - NanceDomhnall Gleeson - LawrenceEvelyn Mok - herselfFreya Parker - WardenHugh Dennis - himselfJason Forbes - DavidKath Hughes - Detective AdamsKatie Sayer - SuzyKemah Bob - DonnaNatalie Cassidy - JanetNathaniel Metcalfe - HueyPat Cahill - RegPhil Dunning - DeclanPhil Wang - Detective Clarke BurbridgeSharon D Clarke - Police Chief AngelaSindhu Vee - Sitawith studio guest Rosie JonesExtra jokes by Celya AB, Jen Ives, Ken Cheng, Matthew Crosby, Rose Johnson and Toussaint DouglassOriginal Music by NNAMDÏSound design by Charlie Brandon KingAssistant Producers - Katie Sayer and Mikaela CarmichaelProduced by Lyndsay FennerA Mighty Bunny Productionwww.springleafpodcast.com / www.mightybunny.co.ukMerch?
