Josh Widdicombe

Über diese Folge

<p>“If I’d done this three years ago, I’d have been getting through it without revealing anything”. Josh Widdicombe is a changed man. The hilarious podcast Parenting Hell, which Josh co-hosts with fellow comedian Rob Beckett, has become a sensation. It’s changed him as well as the conversation around men being parents.&nbsp; Described as an “ace observationist” by the Guardian, Josh is also known for being a star of Channel 4’s The Last Leg and this year has released a brand-new Sky Max series Hold the Front Page with co-star Nish Kumar.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, he talks openly to Annie about being an obsessive child and his journey to comedy, how he dealt with his wife's labour, becoming a parent (of course), how he has changed since starting Parenting Hell and his very recent decision to go sober. Expect chat about Great Expectations and park poos, what else would you want?&nbsp;</p><br><p>You can buy a copy of Parenting Hell here: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Parenting-Hell-funniest-gift-Fathers/dp/1788707478/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=&amp;sr=" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Parenting-Hell-funniest-gift-Fathers/dp/1788707478/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=&amp;sr=</a></p><br><p>And find more about what Josh is up to and links to his memoir here: <a href="https://www.joshwiddicombe.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.joshwiddicombe.com/</a></p><br><p>Should you be affected by any of the issues raised in this episode around alcohol, in the UK, The Samaritans can be reached on 116 123.
