Alan launches an escapist podcast

Alan Carr has become the latest comedian to turn to podcasting during lockdown.

The comic is turning his thoughts to happier times n the new travel-based series, Life’s A Beach, which invites guests to discuss their favourite places in the world.

He said: ‘It’s the escapism we all need right now. I sat down and chatted with some of my famous friends about everything travel, from caravanning in Rhyl to private jetting to the Maldives.

‘Let’s face it: we might not have the sun on our faces, but after a listen to this you’ll definitely have a smile.’

The series will launch on the usual podcast on  February 1 with guest Romesh Ranganathan,  no stranger to travel thanks to his The Misadventures of … series, who will discuss Cornwall, Sri Lanka and how he can’t resist a Center Parcs.

Future guests include  Robbie Williams, Michael McIntyre,  Judge Rinder and  James Blunt.

Carr will be returning to stand-up later this year with his live tour Not Again, Alan (schedule)
