#SNLUK was off to a great start. Happy to see it. Now...what we need is the patience of the public to understand that they won't ALL be funny. That's part of the institution. If you want this awesome thing, you have to bear with it sometimes sucking, because that's how it works.

It’s Thursday 19 March, Stockport will see highs of 17°C and Thread will be filled with 120dB of laughter. Have a lovely day, Stopfordians, we’ll see you this evening. 🌞 Murder Inc. presents: Box Office Hit Tickets (£10): wegottickets.com/event/693268 ❤️ #stockport #comedy #improv #murdermystery

Interested in different improv formats? @mancimprovbuzz.bsky.social is a great account to follow to check out what's going on in Manchester and the surrounding environs. Whilst I'm on about it....come see both short form and an Armando this Wednesday wegottickets.com/event/695830/

Oldham, some daft shenanigans are on offer tomorrow... #comedy #thingstodo #fringetheatre hla.oldham.gov.uk/event/liveth...

Call the Midwife has been on the air for so long. First series depicted the 1950s. Current series is set in 2078.

New Toddits! youtu.be/ioSFkvmN0N8?...

Pen15 was one of the funniest shows of the last decade and there's no way for me to own it in the UK. Sad.

nobody wants to talk about it, but I think ice is just way too slippery to do sports on.

Wow, these AI caricatures are incredible. Really great trend.

Supporting Team USA whilst also being a good global citizen. #olympics

Good people of the Doncaster environs. Come see my daft play. I co-wrote and co-star in it and it's fast, it's dumb, it's real fun. #doncaster #thingstodo #theatre doncasterlittletheatre.co.uk/events/the-n...

oh no, the fake ass pixelbux crypto nonsense techcoinz are worth fewer real dollars than usual? wow, really makes you think

When Gonzo dies a lot of chickens will come forward, sadly. Be ready for it.

Catherine O'Hara was one of the best. I'm also grateful that her comedy collaborators cast her in projects knowing that she would shine. Lotta dudes out there aren't so eager to let women steal some laughs is all.

Murder Inc return to Thread on Thursday 19th February for Decomposed, a comedy murder-mystery set in an orchestra. 🎻 Last week’s show was both FAB and SOLD OUT, so don’t leave it too late to get your tickets. 🙂 🎟️ stockportcomedy.short.gy/decomp-show #stockport #comedy #comedyclub

We’ve got loads of great comedy coming up at Thread in the next few weeks. Let’s make the market place rock with laughter 😃 Check out what’s on: stockportcomedy.short.gy/sk-shows #stockport #comedy

Which part of the pear represents things going wrong when things go 'pear-shaped'? The slender oval top or the ba-donk-a-donk round bottom?

Kate. Kate McCabe.

Less than two weeks until our next comedy murder mystery! Murder Inc presents: Louvre & Let Live Thurs 22nd January at Thread 🎟️ stockportcomedy.short.gy/louvre-laugh #stockport #comedy #improv #murdermystery

All it takes is one bad gig.

Hello everyone. Keir Starmer, Lad Lawyer, here. Just to say that if you have enjoyed Smersh Pod's 2025 output, why not tell everyone? Why not review and rate on your platform of choice? Why not join the Patreon?

Same, girl.

Loved chatting about this...one of my faves even out of season.

A CHRISTMAS STORY with @katemccabe.bsky.social shows.acast.com/smershpod/ep...

LIVE dates through the end of November. Come through and feel good about supporting live comedy!

DON'T do it, idiots. It's a scam. You let them in your house and they'll steal your laptops and jewellery. They're wearing masks for crying out loud.

That said, we did a Hallowe'en show in Kendal today and it's genuinely reassuring that @katemccabe.bsky.social's vampire shows up in the mirror photos. (Also argh, loophole, she's 🧛‍♀️definitely🧛‍♀️ been invited into the building if we've booked her for a set.)

The first episode is out now! With the wonderful guests @tobyhadoke.bsky.social @katemccabe.bsky.social and #katiemitchell tinyurl.com/2bhhh29s

Kendal! Families of Cumbria! We're bringing #halfterm #Halloween comedy goodness to Brewery Arts on Wednesday 29th October, with @runitalwar.bsky.social, David Hoare, and @seanmason87.bsky.social & @katemccabe.bsky.social from @totallyimprovised.bsky.social! 🎟️ www.breweryarts.co.uk/event/comedy...

In the Cotswolds performing a two-man play with the brilliant @katemccabe.bsky.social. What a lovely theatre this is!

Gigged in Cheltenham recently and they told me that, historically, it was a Spa town but it looked more Waitrose-y to me.

DIRTY DANCING with @katemccabe.bsky.social shows.acast.com/smershpod/ep...

Back with the wonderful @katemccabe.bsky.social to talk about NOTHING.

Next week...

Me feeling the change in the air, in tune with the seasons and my senses, smelling pumpkin spice on the first day of September.

I don't give a shit about the logo. But shouldn't we be storing our crackers in Sistema boxes nowadays?

Murder Inc tomorrow in MCR. Comedy. Improv. Murder Mystery...set at a dog show. wegottickets.com/event/668164

I found this story interesting in that it helped me to understand why our birth rates are declining. www.nytimes.com/athletic/654...

Being a creative is a struggle and I have so many Bills to pay. Bills is a collective of cruel and muscular Williams who menace me.

Great fun. Grab a coffee and get to it.

An unrealistic thing about film and TV is that the music levels in pubs/clubs/venues are often such that people can be enjoying a musical ambience but it's still quiet enough that you can still converse at a normal level. I want that for us in real life.

am hereby nominating The Chordettes' Mr. Sandman as #songofthesummer Sure it's from 1958...but it's as catchy as Covid, has a beautiful progression, features four boss ladies from Sheboygan, and a primo use of the sax-a-ma-phone. Put it in your ears. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CX45...

She issues the sickest of burns.

We're all dealing with this nonstop feeling of impending doom in different ways. For example, my wife just used the Iran situation as a rationale to buy more LEGO.

Murder Inc. presents: Nautikill – a comedy murder-mystery set under the sea! Who will fail to escape the jaws of death? Who’s got a fishy alibi? Will the suspects clam up? One thing’s for sure, we’ll have a whale of a time. 😀🐳 🎟️ Book now: wegottickets.com/event/659743 #Stockport #comedyclub

Come on guys. Let's all say it together. The new Will Smith song slaps.

Sometimes a recipe has ***** but then you look at user comments and they're like: This was GREAT. I added oregano, some prawns, used twice as much salt, and fried it instead of baking it. The whole family loved it. Like the Dish of Theseus.
