This week’s podcast is full of contrast and contradiction. While it may be our most angry, sweary episode, it’s also probably our cutest, sweetest episode, as I recount a tale about my teddy bear Bingo, and how it led to my first comedy performance at the age of five. There’s altruistic rapping, a spot of embezzlement, and can our glorious socialist potato-based utopia prevail?
Warning, there’s nothing erotic going on, and we have the video to prove it. There’s rhubarb frolics, I release a damp squib over Christina Aguilera, and when it comes to potatoes I don’t have it in me. There’s Comical Columbian Commentary, a half-arse music quiz, and we receive a cryptic proposition from the International Monetary Fund.
Chumbawamba are globally ubiquitous for their song Tubthumping, appearing on numerous one-hit-wonder compilation albums. But Chumbawamba are no flash in the pan pop group. They were a band for thirty years from 1982 to 2012 and Boff Whalley was there for it all. Enter the crazy multifaceted world of Chumbawamba in this instalment of The David Eagle Podcast.
It’s National Tea Day and The David eagle Podcast is more than ready to rise to the occasion. We’ve got tea facts, tea jokes, tea-themed audio clips and a variety of tea themed items, including the final instalment of our epic Herbal Tea battle; who will be crowned ultimate champion tea? plus there are more controversies and dramatic announcements to bring you as the integrity of our tea-based journalistic skills is once again challenged by the listeners. And we have a tea-related chat with Tina Gloggengieser from Hoogly Tea.

This week we set ourselves the challenge of getting through an entire episode without resorting to smut or euphemism, but can we pull it off? (And that’s not a euphemism.) Is redemption in the offing for Teapigs in our penultimate Herbal Tea Of The week? What are the latest results of our psychological scientific potato-based experiment, and why have the Ghost Busters got involved? What is housed on this week’s mystery cassette? This podcast description merely contains the questions; the podcast contains the answers, plus lots more.
This week features two exclusive David Eagle mixes; one from my fourteen-year-old self remixing the Sugababes with blackadder, and the other being my latest soon to be number one dance hit inspired by an angry Australian, entitled My Penis. In this episode I let you listen in as I work on my penis, before revealing what my hour of experimentation produced. I play a child shouting insults at a sack of potatoes in the name of psychological scientific research, I have an awkward moment with a plumber, and there’s more drama, controversy and a shocking announcement in Herbal Tea Of The week.

On 17th April I’ll be taking part in a festival to raise money for the charity Women And Girls who provide sanitary protection in India. We’ll be chatting about the festival and the work of the charity with Kathryn Crosweller. But don’t go thinking that just because I’m doing a charity gig that I’m all nice and cuddly, because this is also the podcast where I hurl insults at a sack of potatoes, Birdhouse are back to battle for supremacy in Herbal Tea Of The Week, but can they once again reclaim their championship status and knock Hoogly Tea’s Ginger Biscuit blend off the top spot? And this week’s Cassette Roulette contains some profound philosophy from a fourteen-year-old me.
