Here Comes the Guillotine, the brand-new weekly entertainment podcast, sees comedians Frankie Boyle, Susie McCabe and Christopher MacArthur-Boyd share their subversive and darkly funny opinions on the chaos of the world, offering wholly unqualified dissent to popular opinion.
No topic - that’s no topic, will be off the table as three of Scotland's award-winning and best known comedians use their unique unbridled style of rebellious comedy to discuss any given topic - politicians, celebrities, the Royal family, figures from history and many more. Here Comes the Guillotine will deliver cutting and hideously funny commentary on the state of the world, economics, geopolitics, the lack of coherence in the universe... and cheery subjects like death, loss, and rejection!
Underpinning each weekly conflab are just three best mates having a laugh in their own 'very Glasgow' way.
Chris Lander, Head of Comedy and Entertainment podcasts at Global said: “One of the best things about commissioning podcasts is the ability to put people together who are genuine friends and then giving them a platform to be their brilliant selves. The fact that Frankie, Susie and Christopher are also three of my favourite comedians makes this one extra special. We all need a laugh in these dark times and this show is real treat for comedy fans around the country and I’m delighted that they are joining Global as this emphasises our commitment to be the best home for Comedy Podcasts.”
