baba being a whole mood on taskmaster for 20 minutes straight

[@Isthisastep]

Highly recommend Baba on the Taskmaster podcast. Actually, if you aren't listening to the Taskmaster podcast, what are you doing?!

Seriously, do not sleep on the Taskmaster Podcast, and then don't sleep on the People's Podcast, which is the BEST and ONLY TRUE Taskmaster podcast.

He was also on the recent episode of Big Fat Quiz (of Television). He was on a team with past TM contestant Russell Howard, up against two other teams, one of them was two other TM alumni Daisy May Cooper and Judi Love, the other team being two ideal future TM contestants Jamie and Natasia Demetriou.

[@tsherwood8960]

Baba was a perfect mix of two contestant tropes I love- person who has never seen the show and tired parent. 😂

[@spicybiscuit88]

@@tsherwood8960 I like how after every task he was asking if he won. 😊

[@Some1ne]

idk why but I keep thinking he's a perfect mix of Mel Giedroyc's positive vibes and Jo Brand's "fuck it" attitude, topped up with plenty of self confidence

[@spicybiscuit88]

@Some1ne yes! He kind of has Labrador energy - no idea what's going on, but likes everyone and happy to be there.

[@mbs26385]

I love that he’s so decent that he’s slightly offended when Greg says it sounds like “your mom’s a slag”.

[@spicybiscuit88]

And it's such an outdated and offensive word, which makes him accidentally saying it even funnier 😊

[@smlozer]

I'm still not sure if he said it on purpose the last time or not.

[@spicybiscuit88]

@@smlozer The third time?

[@joevictor53]

@@smlozer I have this same issue. I've rewatched that so many times and I don't know. At first I thought he was doing it for the comedy because of the rule of 3. But sometimes I watch it and I'm thinking he's still just saying "and she's just like"

[@spicybiscuit88]

​​​​@@joevictor53 I think he's saying 'and she's just like' and only hears how it sounds to everyone else after the second time. But then because he's quick he makes it even funnier by acting like he's being extra careful not to say it , and then says it again.

[@bloomp9676]

Man like Baba teaches me to big up myself all day every day 🫡

[@NPCarlsson]

Loved the moment right after Baba said he ran out of white names and the next name Rosie says is Babatunde.

[@barnaclefelching4079]

Man i loved Baba so much, chill, honest, confused. So authentic, man what a funny guy

[@legogoldenglider6684]

Baba and Greg had such good banter. Whenever Greg came for one of his prizes he doubled down i love it

[@spicybiscuit88]

His expression realising what the container task was about, and the 'alright my bad, I messed up' was so funny. I dont think theres many contestants who've made both Greg and Alex laugh that much.

[@smurfette_blues7922]

Baba was so sweet and relatable in this series that i think he was the first contestant i've seen who brought in very mundane prizes (similar to joe thomas) but he would still get reasonably good scores for them.

[@EJIsaksen]

the keyring bit was honestly so sweet

[@raphsvids2496]

"i do as well" baba is so charming

[@rayscotchcoulton]

This is one of my favorite Taskmaster UK casts, somehow a perfect blend of wholesome and demented. Wouldn't be the same with Baba!

[@joevictor53]

I wasn't sure before the start of the series. I wasn't a big fan of the previous cast and I was worried when this one was announced that TM might be going downhill. Then this one just ended up being so good and it's up there in my top 5 casts

[@LastLighthouse]

Fuck it attitude ✅ Tired dad ✅ Barely watched the show ✅ Contagious laugh ✅ Big ups himself ✅ 10/10 contestant

[@NonsensicalSpudz]

Your mums a slag ✔

[@WillGeorgeRockett]

Babatunde Aléshé is easily one of my favourite contestants on the show. The “Man Like Tyrone” bit was gold. We need more Baba on TV.

[@Bman1878]

11:40 Emma's reaction after this exchange is fantastic... 😂

[@Isthisastep]

@Bman1878 yeah had to get the zoom in on that 😂

[@katzablot599]

I love how Baba thinks he’s won every task. Now that’s a winning attitude.

[@jessesutton7985]

Baba's vibe is really hard for me to nail down... I'm thinking he's the only contestant to not acknowledge they're at work on camera. He's just Baba, playing a weird game with some wacky strangers.

[@Lanai50]

Baba was the crucial contestant to series 18's cast . He was always 100% real all the time. It's nice to have a nice normal person whose also hilarious as contrast to the craziness on Taskmaster. Loved him

[@hollyludvigsen6763]

I hope all of you watching will remember to big up yourselves, all day, every day ❤

[@isabelseton-browne5712]

Baba is everyone who has ever attended DRAMA School 😂

[@StrongBalloonChris]

Munya and now Baba being nothing but inspirational with their confidence and I love it :)

[@sk84033]

I would love to see a series with Babatunde, Guz, Desiree, Rhod, and Alan. It would be brilliant, the best laughs ever.

[@mtscout]

genuinely one of the best and my favourite players in a while, he was so so much fun

[@a_d_a_m]

i love baba ✨

[@circeus]

"I'll be honest, that's disgusting" Baba, don,t worry. It looks like about half of the traditional british dishes XD

[@broccoli2572]

Could you do a Jack Dee one? I thought he was hilarious in this series!

[@lauradoesart]

I absolutely love his energy, I can tell he would just bring you up when you're down. I know most people definitely don't understand what he's saying but when you do it's even more endearing ❤

[@escellesmith1665]

LOVE Baba!! He makes me laugh so hard -🤩 he's so genuine and that laugh of his! Makes me forget my problems while he's on.

[@ArborDaze]

Easily in my top three contestants that have been on the show. I think I saw him for the first time on Cats Does Countdown, and I’m so glad that I stumbled across that episode or I might not have been aware he was so great.

[@lawsonandsonsconstruction]

He’s got a great laugh
