David Mitchell, Lee Mack And Rob Are Going On Tour!

We’re back! After countless requests, comedian, actor, and writer David Mitchell has joined Rob for a chat at The Comedy Store. They talk about when David first became aware of Rob on Yes Sir I Can Boogie in the 90’s, meeting properly for the first time on Annually Retentive, and their new tour with WILTY co-star Lee Mack, ‘Brydon, Mack & Mitchell Town to Town’. They also reminisce about some of the iconic scenes in David’s award-winning sitcom, Peep Show.

*But for goodness sake why don't you just simply upload the whole episode on KZbin as well, since it is free on Spotify ?????... I can't see the goal in terms of marketing...*

This felt like a hug. Thank you!

David calling cocaine for "self-importance powder" just made my day.

[@nez9751]

He’s so right

[@silverXnoise]

On his advice, I’ve decided to embrace my relative youth, and go ahead and try cocaine at the tender age of 40.

[@krisbest6405]

When you feel a failure this pinch creates a joyful illusion ,then it goes.......

[@Snaakie83]

​@@silverXnoisehave tried many things, used many things and in hindsight might have some years of addiction...but never really liked coke. You're always eager to have more and more and more...there's never any left over. And it's definitely an ego boosting drug, it makes one a bit less social. And it's just too damn expensive, for usually shit quality laced with caffeine or other crap. Neh, coke is overrated and overpriced.

[@hegeliandianetik2009]

​​​@@Snaakie83I was offered coke while I was in the cinema watching Wonder Woman😂, I puked my guts out and had a terrible nose bleed I took that as a sign from my body to never get close to hard drugs, the occasional joint and some whisky is enough for me. It is also quite overpriced indeed

[@priyengovender7835]

Literally could listen to these guys talk about anything. I want a 6 hour podcast with Rob, Lee, David, and Bob in a pub having a few pints and just talking about random stuff. I would watch that show every week!

Yes please

[@annedunstan1171]

That would be bloody brilliant!

[@dersatic9994]

Lee doesn’t drink anymore but would still be good

[@andybrookes3519]

With Davids sense of humour, Robs amazing impressions and Lee Macks quick wit, they really do make an amazing trio!

[@RedDevil_Joe]

“Self importance powder” 😂 that’s how it should always be known

[@AD_travels]

Love the dynamic that Rob, David and Lee display, they enjoy working together and the quality of their comedy exchanges reflects this. Lots of love from Australia

[@brianworth3927]

Very much, reminds me of the bond between Clarkson, Hammond and May.

[@grahamstrouse1165]

They’re the ultimate triple comedy bromance.

[@karenmahaffey1473]

These two are the reason Lee Mack’s humor works. I’m thrilled about David Mitchell’s life story. He’s a different guy now that he has the wonderful Victoria and their glorious daughter Barbara! Rob Brydon seems happy now too. I’ve grown truly fond of all these guys and wish them all a great tour.

[@DomenBremecXCVI]

David's character development has been one of the best things on the tele for the past few years.

[@xdavidy]

@@DomenBremecXCVI i agree he really has gotten better at being on television

[@BlackOnionMission]

Lee Mack is very quick and funny in his own right, doesn’t need others

[@karenmahaffey1473]

@@BlackOnionMission Oh yes! You’re quite right about that. Lee is brilliant wit and completely great on his own. And what a likable guy. But I do see a special chemistry when he interacts with these two guys on their award-winning show.. Couldn’t imagine a better trio.

[@jatari7871]

Macks humor works? Not for me im afraid. To me his humor is nudge-nudge wink-winkesque. He plucks the easiest and most obvious punchlines from the tree of desperation. To me... he is the comedic equivalent to a throw-in in a fast flowing football game. He spoils Would I Lie To You.

[@andrewwhite1305]

David is truly a comedic genius.

[@michellebrown3354]

He is a GENIUS! My family agrees!

[@TonyP_Yes-its-Me]

I've been re watching Peep Show, again, after a few years, and it's still one of the most outrageously funny shows I've ever seen. I almost choked on my cuppa, laughing. The simple concept of people saying one thing, and thinking another is ingenious.

[@TheHulksMistress]

It’s brilliant. And the writing’s just so clever, 90% of every episode is quotable gold

[@melissah8415]

🤣🤣"Self-importance powder" Best description of cocaine EVER!

[@Elwaves2925]

David is a man I admire so much for his rants as I find myself agreeing with so many of them. My favourite was one he did on one of the Big Fat Quizzes (I think), where he correctly called people trying to get you to dance as bullies. He put into words what I'd been thinking. Having been through that nightmare of avoiding someone at a wedding party because of it, I was fully in agreement with him.

[@mcfiend3301]

When I saw that it reminded me of a very similar rant Stephen Fry had made on his podcast back in the dawn of podcasts. I remember both well because I also agree. So glad David never gave in!

[@patrickfrancis7560]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/n56lqYyYfdGYick

[@darrylmac6150]

He said once, also on WILTY 'that level of pedantic-ism is a reason I hate myself' and they resonated with me. He's very much the over thinking man's comedian

Yes, he was with Charlie Brooker!

When Rob turns to the camera at 4:16 after mentioning cocaine, I thought for certain he was about to say, "Of course, other drugs are available."

[@joshscott6914]

I am not overstating it to say Peep Show is one of the top 10 television shows of all time. Up there with the Wire and Breaking Bad and everything else.

[@tobyb1018]

So consistently good- every series, every episode, I don’t think they ever dropped the ball..

[@olivergille8305]

Chance would be a fine thing

[@DodderingOldMan]

Ha, even though I agree that Peep Show and The Wire are two of the best TV shows (well, The Wire is the best ever) it seems kind of odd to compare them... they don't have much in common :P

It’s funny, but the people I love often quote the unique and wonderful Douglas Adams.

[@federicatrunfio8584]

@@LeeDon76 Who else has mentioned him, if i may ask?

I recall Mitchell’s wife Victoria on Task Master where she made it known how much she loved her husband David and respected their marriage. The Task required a marriage scene. That’s amazing. I’m happy for them.

[@ddburrows988]

Rob, these interviews are hours too short! As an American, living in New England, I am, sadly, missing out on your tour. All the best to you three - you have added such cheer and laughter to my life.

[@ambatisteti]

Found this gem of a podcast yesterday and I couldn't be happier. Rob is a wonderful interviewer! David is delightful as usual, of course

[@christinacumpian952]

Yayyy! This was one of my favorite episodes! I really like David and Rob's comedy dynamic, they play off each other so well!

[@tomjohnson6810]

Yes, I thought that was one of the best ones so far, but was over so quickly. The rapport between Rob and David was ''almost effortless''. As someone else has said a four way with Lee Mack and Bob mortimer involved as well would be a wonderful podcast to listen to and marvel at. If Bob Mortimer was not availbale then Frank Skinner would be an ideal replacement.

[@alskjflah]

I hope you film the tour and release it later. You guys have fans all over the world. Okay I just wish I could go.

[@BernadetteNason28]

I truly wish I could sit in a pub with Rob and David (and any number of Rob's other guests) and sit with them while they chat. The banter is so entertaining and uplifting. I've missed post-theatre gatherings to talk about our work. This is the closest I get! Frankly, these little interviews are the highlight of my day! Being in Austin, I'm obviously not going to be able to attend any of the tour dates, but I do hope I get to see some it online.

Protect that man at all costs haha. He's a TREASURE!!!!

[@dmgroberts5471]

Speaking of TMaWL, I've always thought he really shines in the "X who are unaccountably Y" sketches. They're kind of his vehicle to do some "ranting humour." In particular, Daventry was a byword for Hell-on-Earth in my marriage for a decade, because of the Vicar sketch.

[@scbtripwire]

Really love David's look here, very fatherly! I mean that as a compliment of course. 🙂

[@gilliankirby]

I just listened to the whole wonderful podcast episode. I wish it could have been longer! At least another 3 or 4 minutes. I think a big part of the reason why Lee Mack’s episode is the most popular is the relationship between you two, the banter, not Lee on his own. People expect the banter to be good, and it always is. Love from Sydney, Australia
