Just in case the long version is not posted, I save the short version but never watch it. When the long version is posted I watch it and delete the short.
The extended version was so much better than the other... In the shorter version, it looks like Ian and Paul are just being mean to Martin. The extended has the back and forth. Much funnier. Thanks!
air movement becomes more and more important, the older one gets. that's why scots wear kilts. air-conditioning and ease of .., passage, shall we say ...
Lewis getting rinsed because he could not resist being genuinely cringe was funny. He tried to stay in his lane but ego caught him and they called him on it. Amazing.
Martin Lewis actually came across a lot better on the 2nd watch. A bit of an ego which they rightly made him pay for, but he's also genuinely trying to help people by sharing useful info even from the difficult platform of the host of HIGNFY.
Ive watched this show for decades and I've never seen so many jokes made by the host in relation to that host in one episode.. Sooo many references to himself... Then the odd one out was about him and even his bloody website in the missing words round.. The whole episode was him saying "me me me"
Thank you for discovering that Kim Jong Un song for me! Song of the week for me! Listening on repeat! Beautiful melody and chord changes! Still prefer not to know what is it about! Brill!
@36:00: To be fair, air fryers are frigging awesome. I rarely use my stove anymore, and it's *so* much better for reheating certain products like pizza. The microwave will turn those slices floppy. while making other breaded foods rough to chew.
There's a lot of hype around them, and most of it is BS. However, they are definitely better than a microwave for anything that's not liquidy. Then again, I always used a toaster oven for that.
I don't have an oven, or a microwave, or a toaster, just an air fryer oven. Only problem with it is that you have to turn food over, other than that, it's amazing.
They got one fact wrong at 25:55. Papua New Guinea does not have a president. The head of government is the prime minister and the head of state the governor-general.
About 18mths before air-fryers really took off, I purchased an almost brand new Breville bench-top oven/toaster for a great price, so I'd been using it to cook all sorts of food from frozen fish & chips, to roasts. However, when competitors began selling all kinds of air-fryer models, I found it rather amusing that Breville just made an updated version of my oven but with an extra setting on its fancy LCD display, plus they included a mesh tray for doing food like fish & chips, without having to turn them!
Yes it's all a marketing gimmick to get people to buy another appliance. The sandwich maker of its day. We had all the hype in the States a few years back and now you hardly ever hear anyone mention air fryers and many of them go unused. One of the most common items in thrift stores and on eBay.
I have this Breville toaster oven too in the US (California) and this is exactly what happened 😅 I do really like it overall but the air fryer setting is just “super convection” with the mesh tray, but it works for me since I don’t air fry much and it is good for cooking so many other things
The Irish national party guy is known as Littler as in lilltle 'itler. There's a lot of comedy around them including having €400k worth of gold 'stolen' from the party safe by party members. Problem is no one knows where this gold came from. They had under 10k on the books in 2019 & 20 and no donations in 2021. Anyway, Littler was removed as leader last year but he says that's not possible under the party's rules. Living up to the Littler name.
Me, me, me,me me...15million monthly users. What's that Steph? No one likes a show-off. Good old ViVaHD posts a timely extended edition (many thanks, and much appreciated ❤) And after due consideration, I still can't like Me me me me Martin Next week is gunna be awesome 😊
Call me naive and too trusting in the free market, but the moment one bank then decides to no longer charge a fee they'll be the most popular bank in no time.
@@louieberg2942But why would they do that when they could continue making free money with the extra charges with each purchase? Better to work as a group to keep everyone else down.
I seem to remember a HIGNFY from a few years back where Steph mentioned meeting Donald Trump. So perhaps Trump was fulfilling his Steph McGovern fantasies with Stormy Daniels. I mean, he did ask Stormy to hit him with a copy of a magazine with him on the cover and tell him how great he was - maybe that's how he had wished his interview with Steph would have gone.
Who is the host? I presume he has some sort of financial/consumer advice show, but I have no idea who he is. Perhaps why the show was more about the host promoting himself than any previous show, the lengthy bit about him not approving of air fryers being perhaps the most egregious example. I love the show, but I found this wasn't one of their best.
@Gildedmuse While being in Britain, I would say so, yeah. I moved to the US, so I actually watch the Daily Show every now and again. But I do like the panel show format, Mock The Week was great while it was on, and QI is another good watch!
I'm Californian and I watch every episode of this, plus all the old episodes of Mock the Week! (Would love to mention John Oliver here, but he's an American Brit, so not sure that counts at all--but he sure is hilarious.)
@@jmc4975 I guess my point was just that I still find the jokes funny, even if I'm less familiar with the politics. It's not a perfect similie since most UK citizens are likely far more informed about US politics than the reverse, so they're more likely to be familiar with reference material and what not. Still, there are enough jokes accessable even if you don't have a solid knowledge of UK politics (just like the Daily Show has plenty of jokes that work without having to know our political scene that well) plus the more I watch the more I find myself strangely up to date about UK politicians (to be fair I also used to watch MtW and now watch Pod Save the UK. So I'm not completely without reference points for HIGNFY but I'd bet that many Americans viewers are in a similar position).
Martin Lewis was great. I wish more of the 'serious journalists' would double down on the comedy - sometimes some who are very good in general seem like they're afraid they won't be taken seriously the next day talking about serious topics if they pretend to be a blowhard for comic effect.
Determined to make him more British? "Sun-", pronounced as "soon-", means something like "justice" or "virtue" in Hindi, I think. Perhaps he wanted to make him more home-grown and related to sun (or, The Sun...)
I love this show... can't stand this host. Such a thin-skinned guy shouldn't go on a topical comedy panel show. He can't handle it without getting genuinely confrontational.
@@Gildedmuse of course not but they've mentioned other less serious topics since 1990 and criticised the people responsible... With relish I might add.
They said in autumn something like "the other big news that´s so horrifying we won´t talk about it". I just think about it in passing and I get horrified and sad and all jokes lose their edge to me. It might very well be the same with Ian and Paul - they couldn´t work as comedians if Gaza was mentioned. They don´t mention Syria or Ukraine almost at all, either.
7:50 starmer willing to use nuclear weapons, hate to make the comments section political, but it's unsurprising but likely limited to only things that seems to threaten his wife's personal projects - Still cannot fathom why this isn't brought up constantly when discussing Kier Starmer.
Starmer also instructed his party to abstain from a bill that would make recruiting children as undercover police officers legal. That bill is now *law.*
Well, the host DID criticize Steph's podcast, comparing it to his Super Successful and Viewed By 15 million People website. I have no problem with Steph defending herself. I didn't like that host and I hope he won't be asked back.
Because she’s awesome and she’s not Phil Curtis. Just kidding Phil, but I like her, and Martin Lewis was really being a dick and shading her money podcast. In the U.S., that host’s name connotes Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, a comedy duo from long ago.
Steph is great and vibes very well with Ian and Paul. She also has natural presenting skills and given her life before joining the bbc. It sounds like she's actually got some real world experience.
20:49 Llaith y Draig! (Forgotten how to spell Dragon in Welush. Oh fug, I have forgotten me Welush. I forgotten how to siarad Cymraeg, Butt. 😒) EAT WELSH CHEESE. It's good for you. But only eat it if you live in Britain! 🐑🚬🍺🫖🏴
