If you want more Fern go listen to some older Wheel of Misfortune podcasts with Fern and Alison Spittle.

I didn't like the special solo task for John. Dara isn't very tolerant and the power balance is all off. They pick the lesser know person and leave it 4 months until revealed and the big guy with the bigger career just thinks and probably tells everyone what an idiot John is. It worked on the NZ one but they miscalculated this solo task. It ended up cringey rather than funny.

yeah definitely agree, it worked better on the NZ one as it was more stealth, not as obvious that Laura was doing anything- the way they all conga’d up didn’t help but as Alex said, they didn’t expect that to happen! Plus on NZ they are all friends which I think helped in this type of thing.

dara is making the team tasks less fun for me I think, not quite as bad as Iain in the hammock task but not far off!
 
Yeah on the NZ one they are all close friends and equivalent status so the stakes are lower. Just for laughs and the surprise factor was fun to watch. This just seemed mean. First time I've ever thought this about TM and I don't enjoy seeing angrier competitiveness from Dara.

Taskmaster always makes me laugh out loud, even when I’m having a super bad day! It’s definitely becoming a comfort show.

I also had completely missed out a series?! Series 11!! So I’m watching that too! LOVE Mike Wozniak!

Enjoy! There is a certain noise Mike makes in episode 6 which randomly makes me laugh even when I’m not thinking about anything Taskmaster related. Love him! I’m not really into podcasts but his Three Bean Salad podcast is supposed to be good.
