In Episode Ten, recorded live at the Vodafone Comedy Festival – comedian David O’Doherty sits down with Alison for a chat. Eventually. He has to hump the mic first.

David reveals he shares a deep connection with Christina Aguilera, Stalin and Keith Richards. Also in this episode, we learn that David and Alison should not be a rally navigation team, that competitive cycling has jumped the shark and (trust us on this) there is a MASSIVE bombshell towards the end. It’s going to be in all the papers.

Alison does stand-up comedy all the time because there’s no money in it. You can see her upcoming gigs on her website, alisonspittle.com. Check her out at Electric Picnic and all this month at the Edinburgh Fringe with her show, Alison Spittle Discovers Hawaii. Listen to Alison’s closing remarks for all of her Edinburgh recommendations but one show we highly recommend is David’s show, David O’Doherty – Big Time. Follow him on Twitter for more of his upcoming gigs and on Bandcamp to keep track of his Very Low Energy Musical Whimsy (Vlemwy).

See The Alison Spittle Show live at the Dublin Tiger Fringe and the first-ever Cork Comedy Festival. We have your September sorted.
