In a recent episode of the popular talk show, The Jonathan Ross Show, Dave Bautista and James Acaster had a hilarious exchange that had the audience in stitches. Acaster, known for his witty humor, shared a story about a rather unusual experience he had at a music festival. He recounted a moment when a festival-goer, who had been under the influence of drugs for 48 hours, decided to get on stage and expose himself. Acaster, being the quick-thinking comedian that he is, rolled with the situation and continued with his set. But the story took an unexpected turn when a woman dressed as a dog stormed the stage and started slapping the exhibitionist. The festival ended shortly after that, leaving Acaster in the dark next to a dog and a, well, self-exposed man.
On a lighter note, Acaster talked about his recent change in fashion. He was sporting a bright polo neck that he admitted to buying by mistake. It seems the comedian has embraced his newfound style and doesn’t seem bothered by the fact that people think he actually suits the polar neck. In fact, he joked that it confirmed what everyone secretly thought about him all along.
The conversation then shifted to Acaster’s past involvement in music. Before pursuing stand-up comedy, he taught drums to children. However, he lamented that most of his students lacked motivation and ended up quitting. Acaster did have a few success stories, but even those eventually moved on to different pursuits, like becoming a policeman. It seems drumming just wasn’t their calling.
It wouldn’t be a talk show without some celebrity encounters, and Acaster had a chance to share his experience with the multi-talented Bradley Walsh. Acaster recounted how Walsh gave him unsolicited advice to get his own TV show, assuring him that it would lead to fame. While the comedian appreciated the advice, he couldn’t help but wonder if Walsh’s suggestion was a subtle way of saying that his stand-up career wasn’t cutting it.
The conversation between Acaster and Bautista took an unexpected turn as they discussed their mutual friend, Cangani. Apparently, Bautista introduced Cangani to Nando’s, a popular restaurant chain, and they wanted to share their greetings with him. It seems even famous celebrities have their casual encounters and friendships.
In a surprising twist, Acaster revealed that he actually has experience in the world of professional wrestling. At the Edinburgh Comedy Festival, there is an event where comedians face off against professional wrestlers. Acaster enthusiastically participated, but the outcome was always the same – he got hit in the face with a tray. Despite his lack of success in the ring, Bautista assured him that the most important thing in professional wrestling is the entertainment value. So, even though Acaster lost every match, the audience will always remember him for being smashed in the face with a pan.
Finally, the talk show delved into Acaster’s curious choice of attire. On a previous episode, he appeared as a crocodile or alligator, known as the Party Gator. Acaster claimed that his Party Gator persona is part of his transformation into a serious musician. He even went as far as creating a mascot outfit and a glove puppet to solidify his new image. It seems Acaster is determined to shed his comedic roots and gain serious credibility in the music industry.
This episode of The Jonathan Ross Show was filled with laughter, unexpected stories, and a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating celebrities. As always, the show proves to be a perfect platform for entertaining conversations and unforgettable moments.
