Russell Howard, the popular comedian, recently made an appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show where he opened up about his experience during the pandemic and shared some hilarious anecdotes. The episode aired on [air date].
During the conversation, Russell discussed how his wife, who is a doctor, faced the frontlines of the pandemic while he lived with his parents for six weeks. He expressed admiration for her dedication and the sacrifices she made to save lives. Jonathan Ross, the host, applauded Russell’s wife and family for their strength during such a challenging time.
In true Russell Howard fashion, he lightened the mood by recounting a humorous incident that occurred when his wife went away for a weekend. Their house got invaded by ants, and Russell’s solution was to use squirty cream to get rid of them. To his amusement, his dog ended up licking up the cream, leading to what he called the “cutest genocide” he had ever seen.
Moving on to his time spent living with his parents, Russell joked about how unusual they are. He described his father, who is 65 years old, waking up at 5 am every morning to ride his bike while listening to intense euro pop music. The contrast of his father cycling to songs like “I Wanna Sex You Up” by Color Me Badd created a comical start to the day.
The conversation then shifted to Russell’s return to doing his own show, The Russell Howard Hour, in a proper studio. Jonathan asked him about the challenges of hosting a topical show during the pandemic when there seems to be only one major topic to discuss – lockdown. Russell acknowledged the difficulties but mentioned that each week brings its own unique perspective on the situation. He also shared his amusement about the ever-changing government guidelines, particularly a recent government advice that couples living apart can only have sex outdoors. Russell humorously commented on the absurdity of trying to engage in intimate activities while holding an umbrella.
As always, Russell Howard‘s witty remarks and funny anecdotes added a delightful touch to The Jonathan Ross Show episode. His ability to find humor in challenging situations resonated with viewers, making it a must-watch episode for all comedy enthusiasts.
