Welcome back to the second part of this 450th episode special with Dara Ó Briain who returns after 10 years away from the pod.
He’s best known in the UK for hosting Mock the Week and Stargazing Live as well as a legendary run on Taskmaster!
His latest show “So… Where Were We?”, deals with missing body parts, a TV show he'll never do and an astonishing family revelation. The show was winner of Best Tour at the 2023 Chortle Awards and has been performed across the world.
We delve into Dara's ranking in the comedy world, "the Vienna model" and I put your questions to Dara about a potential Mock The Week return and Taskmaster!
