Here Comes The Guillotine

Comedians Frankie Boyle, Susie McCabe and Christopher MacArthur-Boyd share their subversive and darkly funny opinions on the chaos of the world, offering wholly unqualified dissent to popular opinion. No topic is left off the table as three of Scotland's award-winning and best-known comedians use their unique unbridled style of rebellious comedy to discuss any given topic - politicians, celebrities, the Royal family, figures from history and many more.Here Comes the Guillotine delivers cutting and hideously funny commentary on the state of the world, economics, geopolitics, the lack of coherence in the universe...and cheery subjects like death, loss, and rejection! It’s just three best mates having a laugh in their own 'very Glasgow' way.For advertising opportunities on this podcast email: dax@global.com

    Great podcast!!
    Love this podcast! Donegal chat is always appreciated. Susie is greatness! Many thanks to Frankie, Susie & CMB for doing this. Love from Tx.

    Love it
    Hands-down, my favorite show. As an American, I sometimes find it difficult to get into the mindset of exactly what they’re talking about, but it doesn’t stop me from enjoying it at all. If I could sponsor the show, I would!
  • lkyaroch
    Thanks for tamping down the Scots
    Loving the show from the US.
  • senoritaperdida
    So glad these guys have made a podcast!
    HUGE fan of Boyle & McCabe; new fan of MacArthur-Boyd. I have been having Boyle/McCabe withdrawals since the end of New World Order. I am so excited to hear their voices again via podcast. Please keep ‘em coming. Happy to be your American fan.

    Looking into the abyss I was pulled back for this
    They mention the stone roses, they talk about Phil Kay and irn bru chews. All of these things are among my favourite on the planet. Maybe I could do with less of the anal murder but I found the commentary on modern Catholicism very interesting “the switcheroo” Five stars

    Absolutely entertaining conversations
    While it is, admittedly, professional comedians discussing probable pre-planned talking points, it comes across as wonderful stream-of-conciousness discussion that flows in the moment. Three top-tier comic talents having delightful chat… allowing me to distract myself from an otherwise all-consuming misery that seems to envelope life. Thanks for putting this pod together, and here’s to hoping for many, many more episodes to come; cheers!

    Warms My Cold, Dead Heart
    Won't be for everyone, but if you're smokin' what they're rollin' this is a real treasure.
