Ash dykes would be an awesome episode. The guy has done some amazing exploration and feats of greatness and to see/hear his stories would blow you away.

Russ bray

[@Joeldavid-ez9df]

Hi guys, loving the content! The hardest geezer (Russ Cook) again would be awesome after his Africa mammoth journey or Wayne Mardle would have a few funny stories to tell 😂 Keep up the episodes 👌🏻

[@scottkelly950]

Would love to hear from wayne Mardle / Russ Cook are both amazing shouts! Keep up the awesome work! 🤩

[@Mattbrown98]

Get Steven Bartlett on #CEOHappyHour

[@jonnyhawkins7744]

I keep forgetting that he is only 17 years old. What a bloke, I almost have a too high an expectation with his interviews, but just remember that he is still a kid and hasnt been on the block very long.

[@jackosullivan_]

Yeh he’s only really been about since December

[@garyparkinson6198]

100% not many 17 year olds could get that much attention and fame in such a short time and not let it get to them.

[@jyejenkins4278]

He sure does try and act like he's much older and been around for years and is the king of darts, is becoming more of a wanker the more attention he gets

[@Guttlegob]

Tbf, guy looks like he's in his 30s

You can tell that Nathan is like a pillar for him, in a world full of super stars and big personalities is great to see him taking care of the newbies. It would be nice to have him as a guest!

[@LiamF-kp3rw]

Him and Aspinall really are good mates can clearly tell on stage and it’s great to see

[@DanielCurtzZ]

Seems nervous here (understandable for a 17 year old kid) but my god does his persona change when he’s on stage doing his thing

[@Robster6480]

For someone in sport this is the way to be. If you come alive in front of crowds but are shy off the stage/ pitch, that’s a great recipe. No doubt he will have more stories to tell in a few years.

[@Circusflea00]

Yeah.. he hasn't really unknown the other guys for too long...still trying to make his way and they want him to talk sh*t about the them...he clearly doesn't feel comfortable doing that.

[@RockomusiK]

He probably thinks the questions are stupid. Absolutely robbing a living these two 😂

[@Munch_92]

Jacks done a great job here. Littler (not his fault) isn’t the greatest of interviews yet. He’s still in awe of the situations he’s in. But Jack moving and filling is testament to his skill as an interviewer

[@BOBBCFC02]

Darts related Nathan Aspinall would be a fair shout, other than that I recon eddie hall would be a good guest

Loved the episode. Bit of a random one but I think Jeremy Wade (River monsters) would have some unbelievable stories from his filming and travelling days. I don’t think he does too much on TV anymore so might be up for the pod ❤

Aspinall and Humphries together. Feel like more than one will make the episode more free flowing and entertaining and they have a good dynamic. Keep up the good work!

unbelieveable he is only 17...and that much beard and what an amazing throw this young lad has.He is gonna become huge!!!

most of these questions dont really make sense to ask someone so new to the scene

[@danieltucker6922]

Bunting would be a good shout😮

[@foxytube3245]

You should get James Wade on as he can talk about mental health as well as being one of the best darts players oat

[@cjj1504]

Luke Littler came across very well!

[@eatsleepboxingrepeat1296]

Would be better asking him this after a year on the tour, he’s only three months in being on the pro tour!

[@quentinadkins432]

This reveals something about Luke that you gonna say is to do with age... but its not. This guy has no judgements. Its all the same to him. Spiritual gurus spend a lifetime getting there. Luke is there already. Fantastic person. No wonder he is a champ

[@davidharrison3086]

Need the Asp on here asap

[@morganpriestley370]

Can vouch for the most Grumpy. Met Raymond in Leicester on the 9th of April. Asked him for a photo and he mumbled something and walked off. Got to speak to luke Littler and he was awesome. So was Peter Wright. Nearly got a photo with The Asp but the security told me I couldn't get a photo with him. Poor guy looked guilty as he drove off in his Uber. And Brendan Dolan was also really nice too

[@semimac8072]

can say for the same of MVG in NYC right after he lost to Michael Smith. Gladly stopped for a photo and a quick talk on his way out at midnight

[@willscott_thenow]

Is it me or is this really hard to watch - proper awkward

[@samclenaghan2008]

Yeah they’re asking him really odd questions. He has been a pro for like 4 months and doesn’t know his fellow players at all. How is he meant to know who the best dancer and singer is ffs.

[@cdubs2096]

They are asking questions u would know if he had played for like 3 years, been 4 months he hardly knows the players

[@willscott_thenow]

I agree - I wasn’t blaming him

[@paullewis7451]

Just answer the questions please Luke!

[@sbinallazar7377]

Aspinall, Humphries or Bunting pleaseeeee

[@Topdays2009]

hes 17 nervous and still a little shy hes been thrown into this media stuff he will learn but for now hes not really ready but will get better in time

[@TheAmyLloyd]

Get Nathan on please!!

[@TheMercianMetalDetecting]

The lad is a little unsure of himself as yet but with time his experience will develop. I would like to see Jelle Klaasen as a guest in future.

[@mrsteve170]

Thots TV would be a perfect guest! They’re a podcast doing comedic deep dives into the absurdity of children’s TV. Bringing them on to delve into the childhood TV shows of the FourSkins would be a banger guest episode!

Shocking questions no wonder it was awkward as ever making littler uncomfortable from the questions asked! He won’t be seeing these pair again I bet 🤣🤣

[@LankyLanc03]

It’s the opposite. It’s a podcast with some entertainment value. For a 17 year old, he came off awkward and made the atmosphere uncomfortable. They should’ve tried for another dart player to accompany him.

Luke Littler Age 22.

[@arpussupra]

Yes the interview's not great but he's only had a few events on the Tour and Premier League so far. He is just getting to know the players and doesn't go out with them. He's a 17 yo among people in their 30s and 40s who already have families. It will take time.

[@themarketm8382]

I wonder if the PDC or his own team are suggesting doing these interviews and what not because he seems a bit unhappy here or shy in general. Just let him play darts and focus on that. Darts isn't like football where a high level is achievable all the time, what's going to happen after trotting him around the media circuit and he gets knocked out in a major or two early? He's got years ahead of him to build an even bigger audience than he has now, but it should be done naturally by what he does on stage, not off it

[@jasonsampson1301]

Im 39..started playin at 18 moved in with a girl...joined a village team...all men in there 40's 50's and 60"s and 70's...no1 my age was playin darts...best days nights of my life friday nights ...pub...pissed...darts... minibus away...pissed...very bad..off Saturday and Sunday...sweet..give me the jersey from the nuclear weapon for my barbershop..dundrum tipperary ireland..go on..spent a lot of time out of my life writin this essay...

He didn’t answer any of them basically.

[@showmoke]

Crikey that was cringe. Possibly the worst interviewee that I've ever seen on here. Mind you, he's only a lad. He's only 17? Looks more like 37 mind you. One has to question what was the point of the interview!

[@jasonsampson1301]

I was waiting for a name to come along after Taylor...the power...you can nearly judge a player by their nickname 🤣..the nuke is great nickname...a d sounds like a name that will go down with the power 💪💪..hopefully...he seems a winner...but listenen to Peter write say he's on his fone while everyone's practicing and throws for 5 minutes goes on stage and smashes us😂😂...class comment from write...he's one of a couple that isn't jealous of the nuke..now Taylor got ready for tournaments 3 months beforehand..at least 6 hours a day..that's how he won everything there is many many times over...16 worlds will never be got near too...littler would be 34 if he wins the next 16 in a row...he's the best in the world now...I hope he dedicates himself...Taylor took a loan off bristow...had to raise a family pay bills...Phil Taylor is the best pressure dart player of all time...never wasted one....but I'm back watchin darts because of the nuke 💪💪💪
