Tony Bellew Is Angry

John Bishop

Scouser and comedy legend John Bishop steps into the ring with Tony for one hell of a chat. 
 
We learn that John once asked to have his picture taken with Tony after a boxing match and Tony refused. Listen to find out why! 
John reveals why his dad and his uncle can never watch a Merseyside derby together for the rest of their lives.
He tells us what he discovered having his hair cut by his wife’s hairdresser, why having a scouse accent makes you sound angrier than you are and why frustration and ambition as a young lad led to anger.
Tony and him compare notes on growing older as men, what it teaches you and how to accept you can’t have it all. 
They chat Richard Pryor, Billy Connolly, showing working class people on TV and Tony Soprano. 
And we hear some spectacular angry moments from John involving Jamie Redknapp, a boat and missing the 2005 Champions League Final that ultimately led him to throwing his career away and starting again in comedy.
 
Yet another cracking episode, they go deep, they laugh, there are revelations. It’s got it all.
