Taskmaster The Podcast

Taskmaster The Podcast gives hilarious reviews of each episode of the British TV game show Taskmaster. Ed Gamble hosts the podcast. Gamble won in the ninth season of Taskmaster. His guests include current and prior contestants and celebrities who love the show. The TV show asks five participants to complete silly tasks with speed and creativity. Tasks include eating eggs, collecting sweat, painting horses, and throwing toilet paper. Most of the competitors are comedians, so hilarity ensues. Gamble and his podcast guests provide a humorous analysis of each contestant's performance.

Taskmaster The Podcast listeners hear from contestant Mike Wozniak. He explains why his body underwent a "chaotic jungle phase" after competing. He shares which contestant is "full of beans," which one is a "merchant of chaos," and which one has a "mighty noggin." He also names which contestant has the most natural sense of humor, and which one is funniest in person.

Gamble interviews series producer Andy Cartwright on Taskmaster The Podcast. Cartwright reveals funny details about his colleagues as well as the contestants. He says one coworker's hair is so tall it requires a laptop that's turned sideways to view it in a photo. He recalls meeting contestants who were in disarray. One had food on his shirt from a previous lunch. Another was so sweaty that his agent had to run and grab tissues. Cartwright makes listeners laugh and gives them tips for finding unreleased footage.

The podcast covers the "Champion of Champion" episodes, where several winners compete. Gamble competed in one such championship. He recalls a personal disaster that occurred. Taskmaster The Podcast also discusses finale episodes, inviting winners to assess the outcome. Each contestant wants to win. But the competitions include scarfing watermelon, tossing frying pans, and identifying pie contents. So, the real reward is fun. This podcast amplifies that fun through hysterical insiders' commentary.
