We're laughing, learning AND rocking out this week as the immense JOSH WELLER stops by the studio. We talk about his miraculous musical comedy that isn't crap, his previous life gigging with the likes of Ed Sheeran and Florence & The Machine and growing up as a military brat. Can he save Eliot from being a no good punk? Let's hope so. Available everywhere!

What a treat for long-time fans as the amazing @patrickspicer joins the show for a historic second interview. We discuss what went wrong with his first interview, whether this counts as a second appearance on the show and a profound mystery of The Sean McTalk Show is finally solved. Phew. Available everywhere! #talkshow #funny #streatham

Yesterday saw the release of the 20th episode of The Sean McTalk Show. To celebrate here are some behind-the-scenes shots to reveal the tragic nature of the production. It's taken a lot of blood, sweat and gravy to make it this far. Eliot made a comment before one of our recording days: "The thing is this show should be a lot worse than it is" and that's a thing we try to cling on to even as our guests tearfully call their agents in the next room. Thanks for the support everyone!

We're guestmaxxing this week as HORATIO GOULD (Fin Vs History, Boys Gone Wild) is in the living room and making fools of us all. We talk about the differences between millennials and Gen Z, modern creativity and Eliot seems threatened by the youth of our guest. It's another fun but unsettling episode of The Sean McTalk Show to cherish. Available everywhere! #talkshow #interview #comedy

New episode with acclaimed comedian and podcaster @alisonspittle is out NOW. We talk about fairy warfare, her love of radio and ponder if Sean rustled cattle near Alison's childhood home. It's a beautiful episode, and also contains plans for the McTalk Show that may change the course of McHistory....

A love story defying all human/cultural icon precedents: in photos. It was an electric honour to play Christian Bale in Stuart Laws as Michael Caine Saying Never For One Hour last week. As you can tell it is not an experience I (or anyone there) will ever forget. YES I learned patience, communication, and that I can do push ups pretty decently now which is unfortunately less funny. But the most important thing I learned? Even the smell of wine will make Mr. Blobby go absolutely haywire. I think that's why I love him most of all. And don't come at me saying he has a wife and child, please respect our privacy as we navigate this difficult time♥️ The fantastic photos by @edshots

Stuart Laws as Michael Caine Saying Never for One Hour (2026) - the final ever never and @thepleasance hosted a barely believable denouement to my maybe stupidest ever idea. PHOTOS BY @edshots So lucky to have the friends and team to make something like this happen. No one is doing a show like this (partly because you will lose a lot of money doing so) because it’s such a big effort and having an audience like we have for all 4 nevers makes it happen. Thank you to @turtlecanyoncom and @senorturtle for pulling together a production team of superb talents, including an actual film camera managed by @andreadifranco_23 and @jessicatimbs and a camera crew of @kashkhanx @mattrileydop @matmcpherson and sound of @matthewtalks_soundrecordist and @hellyduda at The Pleasance. HUGE thanks to @zzzzzbeth who has been massive behind the scenes on the Never shows and @__maggiec who production managed the whole thing with @decmunro_comedy for producing this enormous thing. The cast. What the hell. @katethehammer as the perfect Christian Bale and @marksmithstuff as an exquisite Christopher Nolan both having to keep the show pointing towards something and being so funny constantly. Then we had @wangpix as Liam Neeson @chloebadcliffe as Katie Holmes @rituarya as the 1st AD James Acaster as Larry Madrid the Bat Supervisor, @silcox_mark as Larry Franco, @camilleucan as Shakira Caine, @abbieweinstock as Catering Assistant, @marjoleinrobertson as boom operator, @naomi.e.petersen as Laura McIntosh @daman.bamrah as Greg Winters, Matt Sandstorm as the agent of little Noah Schnapp, @senorturtle as Where’s Wally Pfister? @heidi_regan as script supervisor and @aruhangalieva as Best Boy. And Blobby, Mr Blobby. @mrblobbyofficial So lucky, so incredible and so many moments of chaos. I’m excited to watch it back and see if there’s a special or a film to be made from it.
