Eric, what are you doing here?
1:28
I'm my PR lady.
1:32
Oh, so you should come on.

Amanda Emery, she is looking after me in the Edinburgh Fringe, and she's booked me into some podcasts to publicise my show.
1:43
So this is one of the podcasts.
1:46
And then I got here and you said that guests often... walk in and you pretend you don't know why they're here.
1:55

So for Rebooked, first question is, your favourite act or acts to see in a green room?
59:29
Yeah, I've listed a few in my little notes app.
59:33
Well, the overall thing is someone I'm really good friends with, which is maybe an obvious answer, but I'm a little bit shy in green rooms.

I get quite stressed.
59:47
It depends how nervous I am for the gig, I guess, but I sort of struggle a little bit with small talk in general.
59:54
And that's not because I'm so deep or anything, but maybe I'm stressed about the gig and someone's like, ah, so where were you last night? And stuff like that.
60:02
I'm like, ah, I don't know.

What is a bit or a joke that you've retired that you secretly miss doing?
