Tim Vine – Time Vine Chat Show

Posted on August 8, 2013 by Golf Planet Comedy

I was extremely excited about this show because of the quote “Glorious golfing – 5 stars” on the poster.  However I quickly realised I had been misled, and the mystery was only solved when I re-examined the poster on the … Continue reading →

Greg Proops – Stand Up

Posted on August 8, 2013 by Golf Planet Comedy

It came as a shock to be informed that this performance would actually be a recording of a podcast, and not the stand-up set we were expecting.  Not on really, and akin to advertising a tournament as strokeplay, when it’s … Continue reading →

Max Dickins – Dear Ray

Posted on June 24, 2013 by Golf Planet Comedy

I must say that I very much enjoyed the first ten minutes of this show.  However, it then became apparent that the eponymous Ray was not in fact Ray Floyd.  This is a clear oversight by Dickins, as Raymond’s extra … Continue reading →

Sean McLoughlin – Backbone

Posted on June 24, 2013 by Golf Planet Comedy

It is immediately apparent that Sean Mcloughlin is an angry young man, much in the mould of Corey Pavin during the War on the Shore.  Sean tells us that his life has been a long series of decisions worse than … Continue reading →
