Hosted by Geoff Norcott and Olga Koch

Comedy channel Dave has launched a spin-off podcast from Late Night Mash, hosted by Geoff Norcott and Olga Koch.

The first episode of Late Night Mash: The Podcast (Yes We’ve Got One Too) dropped today with a focus on the ‘culture wars’ and featuring a contribution from Katherine Ryan.

It launches as TV show, now hosted by Rachel Parris following the departure of Nish Kumar, returns at 10pm tonight  on Dave.

Norcott said: ‘So they told me I was the new host of Mash but I should’ve listened harder because they also whispered podcast.

‘However, Olga is a fantastic comic and this show is a great opportunity for her to pick up some of my wisdom on cultural and political issues. The way I see it the TV show on Dave is a great side project to drive traffic to the podcast, which will form the core of the Mash brand from now on. When I first appeared on the show in 2017 who’d have thought that five short years later I’d be co-hosting a spin-off podcast.

‘But seriously, I’m delighted for Rachel and once I’d got over my bitterness realised that - despite being a millennial - Olga is extremely funny and good company."

Koch added: ‘I’m looking forward to finally tapping into the elusive DILF demographic.’
