Great Company with Jamie Laing

Is there any better feeling than a proper belly laugh? It really is the best kind of medicine and something we all rely on to get through the ups and downs of life. Rob Brydon has built a hugely successful career on making people laugh. From his iconic role as Uncle Bryn in Gavin & Stacey to his hilarious travels with Steve Coogan in The Trip, he’s truly mastered the art of entertaining. In this Great Moment, Rob shares why entertaining has always meant more to him than just getting a laugh. He also talks about creating characters like his “small man in a box” and what first sparked his love of performing. Sometimes making someone laugh isn’t just about the joke, it’s about giving them a moment they didn’t know they needed.Listen to the full episode HERE!If you enjoyed the show, you can also follow us: Instagram- @greatcompanypodcastTikTok - @greatcompanypodcast And if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: [email protected] THE CREDITSProducer: Helen BurkeAssistant Producer: Issy Weeks-HankinsVideo: Jake JiSocial Media: Laura CoughlanExec Producer: Ewan Newbigging-Lister & Jemima RathboneGreat Company is an original podcast from JamPot Hosted on Acast.

Paris Fury is an absolute powerhouse of a woman. When At Home With The Furys first hit our screens, 2.6 million people tuned in to watch the first episode. We got a glimpse into life with former Heavyweight Champion, Tyson, and the rest of the Fury family. But for me, it was Paris who really stood out. As Tyson’s wife of nearly 20 years, Paris has been with him through it all. From his boxing wins and losses to his mental health struggles and addiction - and all of that whilst raising their seven children together. Paris has always been Tyson’s biggest supporter and the glue that holds the Fury family together. In this episode, Paris shares: Why her relationship with Tyson worksWhy the misinformation about Travellers frustrates her How Tyson’s mental health struggles have affected her and why she’ll always be his biggest supporterTeaching her seven children to believe they can achieve anythingHer daughter Venezuela getting engaged at 16 A very special rendition of her go-to karaoke song I loved every second of my conversation with Paris. She reminded me that you can do anything and be anyone you want to be. You’ve just got to go for it. Paris Fury is Great Company. If you enjoyed the show, you can also follow us: Instagram- @greatcompanypodcastTikTok - @greatcompanypodcast Jamie - @jamielaingAnd if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: [email protected] THE CREDITSProducer: Helen Burke & Jack ClaramuntAssistant Producer: Issy Weeks-HankinsVideo: Josh BennettSocial Media: Laura CoughlanAudio: Rafi Amsili GeovannettiExecutive Producer: Ewan Newbigging-Lister Great Company is an original podcast from JamPot Hosted on Acast.
