And whenever I'd do shows on stage and I'd look out and I'd see my dad, he would always have

a resting bitch face.

Welcome back to where everybody knows your name with me and Woody Harrelson sometimes.

Last year, Woody was doing a play in London, and I was going to be in town, so we thought,

why not do a podcast while we're here and talk to someone we'd otherwise might not be able to?

So for this episode, we're joined by British comedian Jack Whitehall

and his father, author, and producer Michael Whitehall. I know a bunch of you will know Jack

from shows like fresh meat and bad education. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend

travels with my father on Netflix, in which both Jack and Michael take trips to foreign lands in an attempt

to strengthen their bond. Meet Jack and Michael Whitehall.

I'm trying to think, is there another father-son comedian team, not that you're both whatever,

but is there anyone else who acts with their

father with such regularity or vice versa? I don't think so. I mean, there's been a couple of

comedians over here in the UK that have done shows, mainly with their mothers, actually. But yeah,

me and dad, I think, were one of the first to do anything together. And we started actually doing a stage

show first because I'd talked about him in my stand-up so much and he'd been the butt of a lot of jokes.

And, you know, I felt like I'd maybe exhausted that avenue. And then a friend of mine who was

producing the show said, why don't you just get him up on stage with you? So then we were doing the Edinburgh Festival.

And for three nights, we did this little show

where I would interview guests that were performing at the festival,

and Michael was meant to sit on stage in a chair

and sort of be like a prop, like Madge in...
