TOUR TABLE - You're on tour, you've got an Indian takeaway, two guests and three beers to consume in a cheap hotel room with no table. What do you do, hot shot, what do you do? Rhod along with support act Elis James get all A-Team (or MacGyver if you prefer) on the chest of drawers:

SOCK OUT THE SMOKE - In the same cheap hotel room, you'd hope that in the cleaning and preparation process, the previous occupant's sock would be removed from the smoke detector...

About The Show

The show has a reputation for excessively mindless banter, forthright and remarkably ill-informed opinion and decent music. Each week Rhod is aided and abetted by Chris Corcoran, along with the UK's hottest comedians who occasionally pop in for a chat.

"I love the spontaneity of the show ... I can do pretty much whatever I want so it tends to be just me, ranting, raving and chewing the fat about whatever comes into my head. Hopefully it comes out funny."

"I'm really lucky...I can choose all the music myself, so I don't play anything I don't like. It's a mix of indie, rock, pop, dance, electronic, new and old. I like introducing stuff I've heard on my travels so I play some tracks directly off my mp3 player and we try to play unusual stuff that listeners send in too. It's all fairly upbeat because it's Saturday morning and the show is fairly pacy."

"I'm a stand up comedian, so the show is focussed on the comedy, and I've broadcast from wherever I'm touring." So far the show has broadcast from Hong Kong, Bangkok, Melbourne, Jo'burg, Paris, Rome, the Edinburgh festival during Rhod's sell-out stint at the fringe, and even places as exotic as Sheffield.
