Taskmaster: The People's Podcast - 2026 New Years Treat, Part Two Jan 12, 2026

Show notes

We're joining the People's Pod this week, as Jenny and Jack discuss part two of the 2026 New Years Treat - asking the questions no one else has yet asked; what would it be like to holiday with this cast? Is a moth-eaten squirrel exotic? Is it time to stop the 'thing inside a thing' Taskmaster trend?

And we've had Champion of Champions, but should we follow Sweden in hosting a 'Loser of Losers'? A listener writes in to discuss. Next week we're back to our 'classic Taskmaster' homework, watching another part two - this time of Champion of Champions 1.
