Where Eastenders meets Radio Four. Or should that be Radio Vier?
This brand new podcast sees Eastenders star and all-round good egg Jake Wood team up with his old mate, The German Comedy Ambassador, Henning Wehn.
Their weekly 20 minute podcast (plus injury time but without penalties) tackles a different subject every week.
The topic of the week might be a big concepts such as “Happiness”, “The Future” or something more straightforward such as “Pens”, “Tables” or “Traffic lights”.
Jake: “I met Henning when he first got on the UK comedy circuit. Back then he barely spoke any English. Mind you, not much has changed on that front.”
Henning: “Jake is one of my oldest mates in Britain. It’s a great honour to introduce him to a more highbrow audience.”
All episodes are produced by Simon Crosse of Shooting Shark Productions.
And the jaunty theme tune is the doing of Otto Kuhnle.

Jake is applying for French citizenship so knee-deep in paperwork, but not too bust to spend 25 minutes talking to Henning about Mountains. The German Comedy Ambassador and former ski tour guide is surprisingly knowledgable about mountains, although he was responsible for the off piste near death of several Germans, but we can look back on it now and have a good laugh.
Henning also makes a decent stab at answering Jake's question ”What is the best thing to do if you get caught in an avalanche?” and there is a brief tour, with mountain heights, of the Lake District from the back-on-Eastenders star.
