      @@sofiamirandadd basically he had just gotten a deal with netflix to do his four part special but netflix said he wasn't allowed to talk about it yet. But his manager didn't tell him that part so obviously he talked about it on camera. Then his manager gaslit him into thinking it was all his fault that he spilled the beans even though james literally didn't know he was supposed to keep it a secret. It ended up not being a big deal but I think his manager quit in a huff and made james feel horrible.

    I think most times that American hosts invite British comedians, the audience is always bad and don't understand British humor. Once it gets online though, and a broader audience engages with the content, people who like the comedian will enjoy it regardless of the host

    What's so hard to understand about james? He doens't have a very strong accent and he doesn't even talk fast.

    The hosts are irritating with their awkward laughter.

    Couldn't watch it till the end. I love James Acaster but the pathetic fawning hosts were shocking.
