Taskmaster: The People's Podcast

We're fully in to the new series now and it only feels right to start the episode with a bit of Alex Horne fan worship. And, while we get to grips with smile muscles, lucky pants, and the size of beans, we make time to visit some of the more serious questions too: when should pants go into 'oven cleaning mode'? What happened to the cheeses in Jesus? Why doesn't 5,098 beans sound like enough beans? And what is the history behind Giant Monkey?
Plus listeners write in with some Greek lessons, the whereabouts of Greg's bin and some news from New Zealand.

We talk tallest-ever line-ups, dodgy internet height stats, seat-number superstitions, the "class of '74–'78" age cluster, university vs. Footlights, and Jack's ever-evolving, fully unhinged statistical model covering everything from star signs to marathon times. Plus: how Jenny helped Isy learn to drive, Nina Conti's surprisingly stacked filmography, and another series of wondering whether the real winner will be stats or instinct.......
