Rufus and Howard bring magic and boundless energy to prose of all forms.
Their rapport is finely honed over many years of stage and screen performance.
A relaxed, inclusive audio environment with callbacks to their work that will have you searching through their back catalogue for lightbulb moments that flash from all their stories.
I’d recommend this to anyone who is looking to laugh!
I never get tired of listening to this show. It always makes me laugh, and I look forward to every new story.

Rufus and Howard are undiscovered UK talent. Some may say this is an accident, others may say 'The Man' just won't allow their insightful vision of reality.
Some might, of course, say they're just shite but those people are twats so who cares what they say.

Engaging and hilariously absurd, this comedy storytelling podcast features the antics of two hosts as they explore unfathomable narratives penned by one of them during childhood. The storytelling is interspersed with witty banter, personal anecdotes, and comedic critiques, making it a unique auditory experience. Episodes range from analyzing films and their themes—such as the cult classic 'The Fly'—to diving into bizarre narratives that humorously explore time travel, mistaken identity, and other surreal scenarios. The podcast's charm lies in its blend of playful storytelling and the hosts' comedic chemistry, creating a lighthearted atmosphere that keeps listeners entertained and laughing throughout.
