As well as sharing his thoughts on the new line up, Reece tries out some crowd work with Ed, he gets annoyed at a very old review of League Of Gentlemen and he reveals what kind of experiments he used to do as a child. Reece also makes his prediction on who will do well on the new series!

This week we're checking in with Jenny and Jack over on The People's Pod as they prepare for the upcoming Series 22....

_________________________________________

Series 22 is almost here, and before it lands we're doing our deepest of deep dives into this year's cast: Chloe Petts, Isy Suttie, Matt Lucas, Nina Conti and Richard Ayoade. We talk tallest-ever line-ups, dodgy internet height stats, seat-number superstitions, the "class of '74–'78" age cluster, university vs. Footlights, and Jack's ever-evolving, fully unhinged statistical model covering everything from star signs to marathon times. Plus: how Jenny helped Isy learn to drive, Nina Conti's surprisingly stacked filmography, and another series of wondering whether the real winner will be stats or instinct.......

If you don't already have the official Taskmaster app downloaded, now's a good time!

On the podcast we go back to 2022 when Ed was joined by comedian, actor, movie star & coat lover Guz Khan!

Before discussing the first ever Champion of Champions Ed and Guz reflect on all things from Series 12 – favourite tasks, fellow contestants and of course deconsecrated churches. They then get down to the nitty gritty of Champion of Champions Ep.1 which featured Bob Mortimer, Josh Widdicombe, Katherine Ryan, Noel Fielding and Rob Beckett.

This week Jenny and Jack review series 15 together for the first time ever to find out; would Jenny would change her strategy now that she's a Taskmaster expert? Is the potato hat task still one of the best moments of her entire life? Was any vital, but legally murky information cut from her prize task explanation?

Plus a listener writes in to debate a 'massive bloop' by Joanna Page, which they believe could have changed the whole series.

Next week we'll be discussing Series 9 episode 8, if you'd like to follow along.
