ADAM ROWE and DAN NIGHTINGALE are two award winning comedians from Liverpool & Preston, respectively. They are two of the UK's most highly regarded stand-ups and have both performed all over the world.

[@kf0811]

Should do a special where Karl and Fin have to host and you two have to do their roles… the fact the other two aren’t comedians but still have me creasing just as much just shows how funny this group of 4 are 😂❤

[@CharlieHolly-lc5rg]

I'm expecting a patron special of Adam & Carl with go pros on breaking into Dan's man cave 😂

[@JW-qf2fx]

will just be a long video of Dan making hay

[@david_hartley]

That first 30 mins was exceptional. One of the best bits of podding in a while. I love these lids! The set up for the Better Help ad and then transitioning into NordVPN was top tier 😂

[@ryanblacklock9398]

This is definitely one of my favourite episodes for talking what to do with life and your dreams. This has helped me see the bigger picture of you dont need to go to uni straight away and you can take your time with the choice. Especially cos I am studying media and production and learning how difficult it is to get into the industry and that its not impossible but not easy

[@HaveAWordPod]

That makes me so happy that at least one person heard what I said and took it on board. You do whatever YOU want to do Ryan lad x

[@ryanblacklock9398]

@@HaveAWordPod cheers lid

[@JW-qf2fx]

honestly i think there is a chunk of it that is just the business of recruiting for uni's... obviously medicine law etc you need degrees, and lots of industries or companies screen via degree holders / levels for new jobs sometimes, but there is SO many other routes to getting great careers... i was borderline smart enough on grades to do an engineering degree because its sounded like what i liked (who the fk knows at 15/16 when you are committing to a certain path anyway??), but i didnt and looking back I wouldnt have lasted. (I think im terrible at study, but pick up maybe 70% of stuff fairly quickly). Im 41 and on my 4th career, all have been quite different and i enjoyed them all, you'd be surprised at how certain skills transfer across careers. My biggest bits of advice would be talk to LOTS of people about what they actually do in their job, and how they got there. You'll learn a lot. Also - like Dan mentioned.... its ok to leave the nest and small communities, the world is a small place now. We all need money to get by, but don't spend longer than 6-18 months in something you aren't happy in..... and don't let family members get too selfish and hold you back. Have fun with it life is short

[@talkaboutnowt6644]

I think my favourite thing about this pod is how it can effortlessly transition from complete bullshit to genuinely sincere moments that actually contain good advice. Carl's stuff about Uni was very comforting to me as someone who is close to finishing my A-levels and is very unsure about next steps in life. Cheers Lids

[@HaveAWordPod]

Drop me a DM on insta if you wanna chat about it- Carl x

[@talkaboutnowt6644]

​@HaveAWordPod might have to take you up on that some time, either way I hugely appreciate what you said since its the type of stuff the education system won't. Cheers Carl

[@DanielleThornhill]

Dan is on absolute fire!

[@stevenll7698]

Absolutely howling, my kids thought something was wrong with me. The Jazz part, one of my favourite 10 mins of the pod. Love it guys

[@ricksmis]

Calvin klein golf shoes?! My old man didn’t even say merry Christmas to me ffs 😂🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[@allymccafferty3186]

Watched this then went right the the amazon doc. Watch that if you have not yet

[@PoshPenguino]

Marriage counseling whilst in a happy marriage is mental, agree with Dan it is pissing money down the wall

[@InsularDnB]

Agreed, all therapy is helpful but you're supposed to talk to eachother, if you can do that and everything is fine, then you don't need anyone else's help. The pressure of expectations of what being married is seems to get to a lot of people, but it's just a title, if your relationship is fine before it's going to be fine afterwards.

[@stephenkenny4415]

That jazz one absolutely has to be the plot from a film and not a real letter right?

[@yogsblogs]

I was thinking that it sounds like the plot of something

[@Bryangog86]

This dude was so cool. Thanks Lids. Had to watch this episode over 3 days due to hangover and family new year stuff. But thoroughly enjoyable, as ever!

[@seaninnes7600]

Right so we need either a video or photo of Adam and Carl in Dan's garden late at night. Thank you

[@iaintgonnawork]

Ahh bloody loved this! I've loved Oobahs stuff for ages so was boss to see him on here

[@Markc89]

One of my favourite pod episodes this! 😁

[@bazzp93]

First section is one of the best! Dans on insane form

[@KyleSLFC]

What a fantastic episode. Well in lids

[@thomassiviter]

Class episode! Oobah Butler was great 👏

[@Povsk1]

Love Oobah.

[@DanielXDJones]

Only half way but the first two sections are up there with the best.

[@-restinpassive-4109]

Happy New Year everyone🎉🎉

[@sambate9577]

"How fast were you going?!" 😂😂😂

[@mysalival100]

Adam. Buy a thermometer for cooking your meat. Game changer

[@alexmcnally3794]

Now Blippi Excavator is stuck in my head... cheers Dan...

[@louisemclaughlin4368]

2:03:19 uni tution fees in Scotland is free! I just have my student loan to pay back but I’ll only pay £4 a month if I earn between £33,000 and £34,000 a year. And if you never reach £33,000 a year you never have to pay it back. Pretty good deal if you ask me 😂

[@TheEpicMuffin101]

Best start to the day, got tickets for Adam’s show in the m&s arena on May 18th can’t wait 🔥

[@olistevenson5310]

Watching in the new year 🎉🎉

[@mikesearcy9151]

Finn's song recommendation was great. Brought me back to working college radio in the 90's. Waverley has a new fan.

[@theboy2702]

Honestly, I didn't think I'd like this one, but you proved me wrong, nice one lids.

[@tomfrench7146]

Mart Poom. Former Derby County and Estonia goalkeeper.

[@markrussell2308]

I needed this so much after a 12hr night shift ❤

[@larrickcrawford9391]

I have a possible idea for Oobah Butler concerning an American pressure group,which caused a death of 2 people.

[@tommolittle]

Class

[@alistairrothwell8499]

i got a ninja bastard for christmas and its absolutely class

[@louiekavanagh2998]

Boss ep this I couldn’t stop laughing lids

[@brillbennyboy]

"I wonder if we say the word rape more than most podcasts" with donk in the background made me react like Adam😂😂 fucking hell

[@gabrielle6326]

Happy new year 🎉

[@idcalot5022]

[@michellereck2221]

Loved this episode 👏🏻👏🏻😂

[@Steveobrienandalf]

Dan is on 🔥🔥🔥

[@MrRob49815]

For some reason your comment has the option to be translated to English 😂

[@Will-bx7vw]

Then on*

[@lb7164]

Best ep in a while!

[@Bigbooting]

Is there anyone in the world better at inprov than Dan?

[@OliviaMitcheson-ne7gu]

36:00-49:00 absolute FIRE. I’ve never laughed so hard 😭😭😭

[@gabrielle6326]

I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life when I was younger, I went to college instead of Uni but got the similar experience because I went to a college miles away from where I lived and lived away from home. I think Uni works for some people if they have vocational dreams but you can go to college and meet new people etc. I had more experience getting a job and working my way up. Some of the people I work with (who have a degree) have little common sense, they can’t problem solve by themselves. I’m not painting everyone with the same brush but that’s just what I’ve seen. Sorry for essay but I’m pissed and it’s new years

[@MrWorsterLike]

Big ups liquid Dan

[@craigmonaghan5401]

Fire 🔥

[@chezs1379]

Starting my year with Adam testing his foot health 😂 found out a few months back I'm distantly related to Meatball Molly 👌🏻

[@georgiadeane1858]

Scotland has free uni!

[@craigturner1748]

Have A Word 2025! I left my job too become a jazz singer, on the whims of an all be it top notch podcast, I may be desitute and my children shine shoes on the streets, but I always save £3 a month too listen in and you should my hear my saxophone sing. Should I leave jazz behind and die inside everyday and become a solicitor, all the best lads, kepp up the good work.

[@davechalmers90]

I feel like I'm going mad - wasn't there a previous Oobah Butler episode of Have a Word? I can't seem to find it I swear there was one before...yet they're talking to him on here like it's the first time they've met.

[@HaveAWordPod]

First time

[@yogsblogs]

Jizzy Jazz

[@eb24740]

Cracking episode🤣

[@garethshottin]

Dean Windass would be a fucking top tier guest on the pod the guys funny as.

[@tomcain3924]

What a funkin podcast tha was

[@averagelad966]

Dan vs food

[@DarrenInstone1878]

No Dan vs food?

[@BallisticBurns]

Hey lads, love the podcast, it’s got me through some really tough times. Just wanted to say, as a Jehovah’s Witness myself people need to discount 90% of what’s said. I loved Ooba’s Amazon doc however, some of the stuff I’ve heard about my own beliefs have made me question the accuracy of the Amazon doc. 99% of Witnesses are normal people, we drink in the pub like you do, we enjoy spending quality time with friends and family like you do. I general, we do 80% what anyone else does, just a few things different that has no affect on anyone else. Well, better go, got to pay my membership fee to my religion … how much was it again? 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

[@TW-ks3pn]

What did he say that was wrong?

[@CJizzleJ]

@@TW-ks3pnno reply as of yet

[@OrangeBananaPear]

36:48 this is insane. Simple solution. If this is your passion then you’ll make room for it in your life and build towards it. If you are expecting to make a living out of jazz then maybe speak to people on the game and see their dedication (decades).

[@garethshottin]

I might be missing something here, but why would you ask a prostitute about jazz?

[@menwithven8114]

Im an American so i may have a weird view of channel 4 but ive followed channel 4 and their KZbin channel for years and it seems comparable to MSNBC in America. At least their reporting on American politics seems wildly partisan. Late edit here but nevermind it makes sense now. He worked for vice and his friend is a labour party reporter so its safe to assume he has a liberal slant to him

[@stevec633]

When is it going to be addressed that Carl and Noah Kahan are the same person?

[@jakewv102]

Calvin klien golf shoes and adam isnt a tory?😂
