Kyrah has a brand new show at the Soho Theatre Wednesday 15th and Thursday 16th of April. Get tickets here.

Kyrah spent 6 hours and 24 mins on her phone on monday, enough time to cycle (5 hours and 25 mins) to the East Anglian Railway museum and spend roughly the recommended time exploring their exhibits. (The museum has a wide collection of locomotives and rolling stock, some of which are fully restored, three are converted into Thomas, Percy and Toby replicas). This was written by producer Hugh, who is definitely not autistic.

After this we dive into Kyrah's notesapp where we find a new term for creeps who sexualise fruit with AI. Wait people do that? Yes. It's called Fruit Love Island and it's terrible.

Anyway we need find out if Bananito will break from his initial couple with Watermelina and be with his true love PinaPina!

Joining Will today is comedian, writer and the only stand up comedian that we can definitely confirm has read at least 1 book, its Ben Pope!

Ben Pope has only actually had a smartphone since 2019 and is therefore still working it all out. His photos app is a collection of whacky random things he's found and his screentime is one of the lowest we have ever seen.

Ben pope joins us just before his filming of his new special The Cut, on April 9th, tickets here.

Guest Bio:

Ben Pope is a stand-up comedian, bookseller, writer and comedy performer.

He has been doing stand-up for over a decade (as an act and MC), gigging regularly across the UK, and taking a host of critically-acclaimed shows to the Edinburgh Fringe - including the solo stand-up hours Baby Sasquatch (2018), Dancing Bear (2019) and most recently The Cut (2025) which received rave four-star reviews from The Scotsman, Evening Standard and The Telegraph, and was nominated for NextUp Biggest Award in Comedy.

His YouTube specials Mr Big Stuff (2022) and Holy Cow (2024) have been viewed 56k times and counting. In 2023 he took Holy Cow on his first nationwide tour around the UK and NZ, including a run at London’s Soho Theatre. Not to brag, but Joe Lycett said it was ‘excellent.’ In 2025 he took The Cut on a new 14-date tour of the UK.

Ben has written for The News Quiz (BBC Radio 4) and DMS Are Open (Radio 4), and has appeared on Comedy Central’s Achievement Unlocked, Dave’s Comedy Guide to Life and the BBC New Comedy Award on Radio 4 Extra. He’s also opened for Simon Amstell, Nick Mohammed (Mr Swallow), Kieran Hodgson, Jazz Emu, Max & Ivan, David Elms and Alex Kealy on tour.

In his spare time (haha) he manages Review, an independent bookshop in Peckham. Ben has largely tried to keep his bookselling and comedy lives separate - but in 2025 he started posting a series of comedy reels about books. These have now been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on TikTok and Instagram. He runs Ben’s Book Club - a live book club comedy show - at the Bill Murray in Angel, and co-runs Comedians Do Poems at Review with comedian Amy Matthews.

Ben’s prose has appeared in the Bookseller, the Idler and Inkling Magazines, and his newsletter Lo! can be subscribed to now - it features illustrations by Will Hughes.

In today's episode Will is joined by journalist, writer and broadcaster Zoë Grünewald. The two go through her definitely very normal DMs, from being invited to a curry on LinkedIn to being told to stop slouching on her website, Zoë gets it all.

After this we dive into Zoë's secret reddit account, which mostly features reality TV drama and pictures of her adorable cat peaches. Then Will explores the deepest inner workings of Zoë's psyche, her google reviews. From scathing take downs of local cafe's to expose's on her local Texaco. It's all drama on Zoë Grünewald's phone.

Guest bio:

I’m Zoë Grünewald, a journalist, broadcaster, and political commentator with a focus on the intersection of power, policy, and society.

I’ve been working in and around Westminster for seven years, across journalism, the civil service and parliament.

I’ve written about everything from policy and power struggles to culture and current affairs, with bylines in The New Statesman, The New European, The i, The Independent, The Lead, The House, City AM and Prospect Magazine. I do features, interviews, analysis, comment and the odd poorly-judged tweet.

I also like to talk. I co-host Politics Uncensored on FUBAR Radio, regularly pop up on the podcast Oh God, What Now?, and occasionally guest-host Pod Save The UK. I also share my thoughts on BBC, Sky News, LBC, GB News, Talk, Times Radio and wherever else will have me.

And if you need someone to chair or speak at your event, I can do that too. Whether it's a panel debate, conference or live event, I'm an experienced chair and public speaker who actually enjoys it.

Joining Will today is comedian, actor and communist monopoly survivor Sullivan Brown!

The two go through Sullivan's fudged up screen time stats, his attempts to use google reviews to date and the real history behind Monopoly.

Guest Bio:

Sullivan Brown is a Content Producer at the YouTube Channel No Rolls Barred. Where he is described as "an extremely silly man who enjoys cups of tea and Chelsea Football Club. Though rubbish at most board games, Sullivan has managed to make a living by being entertainingly stupid."

Sullivan is also one half of the domestic-horror sketch comedy double, act Grubby Little Mits, alongside Rosie Nicholls.

Rosie and Sullivan met at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School where they trained as actors.

In 2022 the Grubbs wrote their debut two hander sketch comedy show and won The Amused Moose Comedy Award for Best Debut Sketch Show. They have since performed all over the country to sell out audiences at Soho Theatre, Glasgow Comedy Festival, Norwich Theatre Royal, Komedia Brighton and more.

In 2024 Grubby Little Mitts were invited to perform at the Leicester Comedy Festival Preview Gala at De Montfort Hall, where they performed their Piss Finale sketch to a sold out crowd of 1500 people.

Nicknamed “The White Stripes of comedy” (Reviews Hub) their material is rooted in the recognisable, yet traverses into strange realities where the normal rules of engagement do not apply. Using slapstick, sitcom and surrealism to point the finger at the every day, the Grubbs successfully make the innocent seem uncomfortable with a healthy dose of silliness, sound design and a bright red aesthetic screaming from filthy, handmade props. 

In 2024, Grubby Little Mitts carried out the single most successful crowdfunding campaign in the world for any Edinburgh Fringe show.

Outside sketch comedy, Rosie and Sullivan are part of the core cast on the popular YouTube channel No Rolls Barred (350K subscribers), with the two flagship shows Board Game Club and House Rules gathering over a million views every month. Grubby Little Mitts also produce the bi-monthly WIP sketch comedy night Sketch Book for sketch, character and clown comedy acts to try their new material in front of a sketch-loving crowd - featuring some of the best alternative comedians currently on the scene.

Joining Will Sebag-Montefiore is comedian, classical percussionist and proud Zootian, Vittorio Angelone. He loves crocs, sometimes bins full bags of cookies and once stole some studs from Sports Direct. Vittorio is also the host of A Guide To Parenting Podcast, with fellow comedian Mike Rice.

Will makes sure to ask Vittorio the BIG QUESTIONS such as; is your phone catholic or protestant? and, Don't you hate it when your phone be buzzin?

Vittorio famously only follows two people, Pete Webber and Gerry Adams. He tells us the story of the great purge, and how many followers he lot when he unfollowed everyone else.

Vittorio also co-hosts a brand new rugby podcast called Hands Away.

Make sure to also go to vittorioangelone.com for tickets to his tour!

Guest Bio:

Vittorio Angelone began performing stand-up comedy in 2018 During the COVID‑19 pandemic, he built a significant online following—amassing hundreds of thousands of followers across social media platforms, including 200,000 followers on Instagram.

In 2020, having moved back to his home in Belfast at the beginning of the pandemic, Angelone hosted a comedy club in his back garden, with the audience limited to 30 people due to social distancing regulations.

In 2021–22, he debuted his hour-long stand-up show Translations, which explored his experiences as an Italian-Irish person in London. The show, whose structure was loosely based on the play of the same name by Irish playwright Brian Friel, was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards in 2022. Angelone went on to perform the show in a run at the Soho Theatre in early 2023 and, after another run at the Edinburgh Fringe, released the show on YouTube in September of that year.

Angelone's comedic voice centres on identity and belonging. He describes himself as "always Irish, sometimes Northern Irish, but never British", and highlights the nuances of performing jokes that "ruffle a few feathers, but with warmth and kindness".

Since 2023, Angelone has co-hosted the podcast Mike and Vittorio's Guide to Parenting, alongside fellow Irish comedian Mike Rice. Neither host has children, and the content of the podcast is unrelated to parenting.

In 2024, Angelone began touring his second solo show, Who Do You Think You Are? I am! The show explores themes of identity, and is inspired by bowler Pete Weber; the title is derived from Weber's viral celebration of his victory at the 2012 U.S. Open. Angelone has linked the show's exploration of identity and "external perception" to his experience of learning that he may be autistic; he also frequently discusses this topic on his podcast.

In 2025, he made his acting debut in the short film Rewarding, starring alongside Seána Kerslake.

Jordan wrote and starred in ITV’s Transaction, she also recently learnt to play the guitar which is, according to her, the most bisexual instrument!

Jordan's homescreen is Evee, 133 in the original pokedex, known as the "Evolution Pokémon" due to its unstable genetic code, which allows it to evolve into one of eight different Pokémon, known as Eeveelutions.

We go into Jordan's screentime, which is on slightly higher end so far with a weekly average: just under 10.5 hours a day! 4 hours on netflix, nearly 2 hours on zoom, 1h20 on Instagram.

Guest bio:

After beginning her career as a singer, she released several independent singles and albums. She appeared on the fifth series of The Voice UK, where she was a semi-finalist; having performed a skit during one of the live shows and preferred it to singing, and after a record label deal was not renewed, she became a comedian, where she was nominated for an Edinburgh Comedy Award for her tour Is It a Bird? in 2022. Her 2022 appearance on Friday Night Live, where she performed a song about her experiences as a transgender woman, stripped naked, and played the piano with her penis, attracted praise and controversy.

In 2020, she appeared in Transaction, a six-part series of five-minute shorts for Comedy Central starring Gray as Liv, a narcissistic transgender supermarket worker. She told Gay Star News she wrote it as an attempt to write "a regular tit-for-brains, not some tragic hero", on the grounds that she "was getting bored of seeing [transgender women] represented as either poor suffering saints or hypersexualised villains". She told The List in August 2022 that ITV had ordered a series of full length episodes, which, if it was made, would be the first British television sitcom to feature a transgender lead actor since Boy Meets Girl, which ended in 2016.The same article stated that BBC Radio 4 had ordered a comedy series, Spectacular,which was loosely based on her appearance on The Voice UK and on HBO's The Comeback, where she "play[ed her]self without self-awareness, [as] if comedy hadn't come along and I'd clung to the idea that I could make a living from music off the back of a reality TV appearance" In July 2021, she appeared in BBC Radio 4's Taboo, an exploration of what was and wasn't acceptable in comedy and in January 2022 she appeared as "Future Archaeologist" on the first episode of the second series of Spencer Jones's sitcom, The Mind of Herbert Clunkerdunk.

Possibly the least on his phone guest that we've had so far, comedian and podcaster Milo Edwards takes us through default background and settings, his bizarre gringo nation search history and his record high number of McDonald's reward points.

Milo Edwards' wallpaper, often referred to as the raindrop or water droplets background was the default image used to showcase the Retina Display on the iPhone 4.

Design Era: It was a hallmark of the "skeuomorphic" design era at Apple, which aimed to make digital elements look like real-world, tactile objects.

Guest bio:

Milo Edwards is a critically acclaimed stand-up comedian and podcaster from Essex. He was a member of the Cambridge Footlights as a student, before moving to Moscow in 2015, where he became TV performer on the stand-up shows Open Microphone and StandUp on the TNT network.

Since 2018 Milo has been based in London and become a rising star of the UK stand-up scene. His 2019 Edinburgh Fringe show Pindos (about his time as a comedian in Russia) received five-star reviews and the Scotsgay Comedy Award, later being released as a YouTube special in 2023.

His second Edinburgh Fringe hour Voicemail was critically-acclaimed and had a close to sold-out run at the festival in 2022. It was nominated for Best Show at Leicester Comedy Festival and transferred to a UK tour and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2023, before being released as a YouTube special in 2024.

Sentimental, Milo’s third Edinburgh Festival hour, was his most highly reviewed yet and was nominated for multiple awards at the Fringe. It then transferred to a UK tour and the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 2024. His 2024 Fringe show How Revolting! Sorry to Offend is currently touring Australia ahead of a UK tour in autumn 2025.

Milo is a host of the popular political comedy podcast Trashfuture, which has around 50,000 listeners and has featured guests such as Rob Delaney, Mark Watson, Owen Jones, Franz Ferdinand (not the archduke) and Josie Long. He also hosts the podcast Masters of Our Domain with Phoebe Roy and Patrick Wyman; and Glue Factory with Olga Koch, Pierre Novellie and Riley Quinn. He formerly hosted the Russian podcast TooMuch (Тумач). 

​

He has written for Mock The Week (BBC2), Hello America (Quibi), Breaking The News (BBC Scotland) and The News Quiz (BBC R4) and his writing has also appeared in Private Eye and The New Statesman.

Joining Will today is comedian and podcaster Tom Nestor to go through his extravagant screentime, fascination with Big John and the importance of getting up at 5am (or even 4:30am) to listen to the High Performance Podcast.

After this the two debate how different Guinness actually is in different pubs (otherwise known as cold wetties or creamy ones), fight with potential swingers in Tom's DMs and figure out which egg is the most right wing.

Tom Nestor reveals the secrets behind how to grow from 5'8 to 6'4, early rising, ice coffins and following whatever advice podcasters give you at any one time.

Unfortunately the show was cut off due to the woke mob breaking in, and silencing Will and Tom from revealing the truth. But don't worry, you can listen to Privacy Settings or Tom Nestor's podcast All Right Idiots for the real uncensored truth.

Guest Bio:

Tom Nestor is a stand up comedian and podcaster from Hertfordshire who hosts the All Right Idiots Podcast. You can also find Tom on Cameo.

Comedian, actor and satirist Rosie Holt joins Will Sebag-Montefiore to go through the deep dark corners of her phone. From people asking to be financially managed in her dms, to her 2016 dating expert days, all the way to her current addiction to The Rookie, this episode is as unpredictable as can be.

Rosie Holt also speaks about her upcoming 2026 show and tour, likely to be themed around the Labour Government incompetently dealing with an alien invasion.

For Rosie's screentime on Sunday she spent 47 minutes on NowTV, which is enough time to watch 96% of an average privacy settings episode… instead she wasted her time on the Rookie!

On Wednesday she spent 23 minutes on YouTube, which is enough time to watch 47% of an average privacy settings episode…

On Thursday she spent 18 minutes on the Times app, i can only assume you were engrossed in “Why hyperbaric oxygen chambers are my new addiction” Or “What happened when I tried the MAGA diet” Or Jeremy Clarkson’s “no wonder Labour are killing pubs, they just hate fun”

Guest Bio:

Rosie Holt is a British actress, comedian, and satirist. She started her satirical videos, Woman Who..., released on her Twitter feed, during the 2020 lockdown. The Guardian newspaper noted her "strong line in parodies of the [type of] political speech that veers into drivel."

In October 2021, Holt was interviewed about her success online as part of a Backstage magazine article.[11] She also appeared in an online educational workshop aimed at Buckinghamshire schools, using the short-form comedic video as an example of a new method of communication.

In August 2021, Holt was featured in a newspaper story in the Daily Mirror after the dating app Hinge suggested that her 'most compatible match' would be her brother, Charlie. Her tweet relaying the story attracted 23,000 likes within two days.

January 2022 was a period of intense political controversy about Partygate, and an official report was expected from the Cabinet Office Second Permanent Secretary, Sue Gray. In a satirical video sketch released to Twitter, Holt played the part of a Tory MP being asked by an interviewer whether she had or had not attended a Downing Street party. The video was created by splicing the interviewee's responses with actual footage of questions from a Sky News reporter to Boris Johnson, in which he had dodged questions about whether he had gone to the party. Her response – that until Sue Gray completes her report "your guess is as good as mine: I don't know whether I attended the party" – generated an outraged response from some viewers who missed the satire and who thought that the interviewee was a real MP.

Comedian, podcaster and the UK’s only funny pub quiz host Jake Bhardwaj joins Will Sebag-Montefiore to go through why Will needs to get a real job, his UberEATS fuelled FUPA and his cake making scheme at school.

On Jake's screentime, he spent an average of 5 hours and 26 mins a day, not that bad. Around 23% of his day spent on his phone. Jake also spent 3 hours on TikTok but only 1 hour on YouTube. Jake also defends his pal Joe Marler's performance on the Celebrity Traitors.

Guest Bio:

Jake Bhardwaj is a comedy creator, writer, actor, producer, and self-appointed professional comedy quizmaster.

Jake is the host of The Pub Quiz Pod, the show where comedians Liam Shaw and Jake Bhardwaj answer a real pub quiz sent in by a real Pub Quizmaster from somewhere in the country.

With the help of a different special guest each week, you can expect gags, geekery, and glorious nonsense.

He also hosts the Not Another Quiz Nights in Soho on the last Thursday of the month for a unique quiz night experience filled with music, mess, and mayhem. Expect prizes, surprises, and 'celebs' in disguises. Oh, and if you can't make one of our events, don't worry, we're available for hire, so we can make one just for you!

Host bio:

Will Sebag -Montefiore is an internet sensation (in the same way Thai Sweet Chilli Sensations are Thai)

He has 70+ million views across his digital platforms. You can see him in Poldark (BBC), Endeavour (ITV) but not Malpractice (BBC) because his scene got cut.

His comedy work includes acting in Green Wing Resuscitated alongside Olivia Colman, writing and performing for BBC Radio 4 and regular appearances on Rosie Holt's NonCensored podcast.

He has performed alongside Mark Rylance at Shakespeare's Globe and did pretty well in his Year 6 SATS.

His satirical videos have been shared by the likes of Adrian Lester, Alastair Campbell, Owen Jones, Dermot O’Leary, Dawn Butler, Lorraine Kelly, James O'Brien, Andy Haynes and, unfortunately, Joey Barton. Will is deeply ashamed of that last one but look, a retweet’s a retweet.
