About this episode

Mark and Sam are joined by Jack Whitehall to discuss various comedic topics and his new show, The Burbs.

Mark and Sam are joined by Jack Whitehall. They get into British pub culture vs. American drinking, darts legends who need vodka to compete, ultra marathons by accident, filming awkward sex scenes, reality show meltdowns, food influencers drowning everything in gravy, and why Shawn Michaels might be the greatest performer of all time. Jack’s new show The Burbs is now streaming on Peacock. Inspired by the cult classic film, the series follows a couple who move into a seemingly perfect suburban neighborhood that quickly reveals some very dark and very funny secrets. It’s a twisted murder-comedy with a stacked ensemble cast, sharp writing, and that perfect mix of suburban paranoia and absurdity. If you like mystery with your jokes and chaos behind white picket fences, The Burbs is for you.
