If you ever needed proof that @swerytd knows what he's doing with The Skewer pitches, this should be it!
Check out our latest episode focussed on writing for The Skewer!

I was invited on to @RejectPilePod to talk all things The Skewer on Radio 4 with (hopefully!) some useful advice for writing for the show.
@swerytd is back with us for a deep-dive into writing for #TheSkewer.
Hear about his origin story for writing on the show, the course that he runs with Dave Cohen and what you can expect from the course and, indeed, this episode!

More stuff from us on Dead Ringers this week!
Here's this week's episode of Dead Ringers and pleased to say we were responsible for 2 sketches in there - Tuchel's World Cup and To Catch A Beach. (Are you spotting a pattern?)

And a double on this week's #DeadRingers for us, if you like that sort of thing.
And we didn't just write for one show today but two. Catch a couple of our sketches on tonight's excellent episode of Dead Ringers here.
(Ours were Tuchel and the World Cup, naturally, and our new favourite podcast To Catch A King).

A couple of things in the first ep of the new series of 'Dead Ringers' from us
Thrilled to have contributed to this excellent opening episode of the new series of Dead Ringers.
You'll have a stay to end to hear the bits we were involved in but enjoy To Catch A Hire Car and Nigel Farage and Rupert Lowe bursting into song.
