@Rembrandt I just started Bill Burrs Paper Tiger, watched 20 mins, brilliant so far.

Kevin Harts 'Seriously Funny' was!
By far his best one.
I've actually been listening to these when driving (given very little of stand up comedy are visual - even though there are bits you know he is doing something) which makes it amusing when you adriving along cracking up at something, my wife commented the other day when I pulled into the drive way asking what I was laughing about!

Not sure whether this should be here, or in the podcasts thread. Mods, please feel free to move.
I've been listening to the Rule of Three podcasts for a while now, where 2 comedy writers talk to a comedian about something that influenced them.

Link for that episode is here
Also worth going out of your way to listening to was Danielle Ward on Bottom, David Quantick on Time Bandits, Ed Morrish on Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy (Radio Series), and Charlie Brooker on Airplane!
