The Comedian's Comedian podcast, in which the comic Stuart Goldsmith interviews a standup for each episode, has now featured more than 500 guests. But never the tricksy comedian Luke McQueen. So this show opens with a real (or is it?) phone call to Goldsmith, during which McQueen demands to know why he's never been on the podcast. The answer is of little consequence. McQueen has a sample of Goldsmith's voice so he can create a compliant AI version of the podcast host and record his own episode live on stage.
