APRIL FOOLS: Joe Lycett

Author: Kate Thornton April 7, 2026 Duration: 1:01:54

Welcome to White Wine Question Time - and we're continuing to search around in out cellar of almost 500 episodes to pull out some of the very best episodes from our ever-growing archive.


Each Tuesday we'll bring you a highlight from the past SEVEN YEARS, and we're continuing to drop new episodes every Thursday. We're also putting YOUR questions to our guests every Saturday in a bonus Weekend Wine Question Time. We hope you're enjoying all the episodes - drop us an email and let us know what you think!


Throughout April we're celebrating the fools - the very best funny men and women who've made us laugh - you'll hear from Joe Lycett (this episode) Katharine Ryan, Stewart Lee and Ellie Taylor - but they're just the tip of the iceberg, if you want more comedians there are dozens of them in our old episodes.


Cheers!

There’s a particular kind of conversation that happens after a glass or two of wine, where guards come down and real stories emerge. That’s the atmosphere White Wine Question Time captures so perfectly. Hosted by Kate Thornton, each episode gathers well-known friends for a relaxed yet revealing chat, structured around three thoughtful questions and, of course, a shared bottle. What unfolds is less a formal interview and more a glimpse into the genuine friendships behind the public personas. You’ll hear laughter, unexpected confessions, and perspectives on culture, society, and current events that rarely make the headlines. This podcast thrives in the space between entertainment and intimate disclosure, often veering into comedy as these candid discussions unfold. With a vast back catalogue of over 450 episodes, each one feels like pulling up a chair to a fascinating table. Whether you start with the latest release or browse the extensive archive, you’re guaranteed a listen that’s as engaging and relevant as it is genuinely enjoyable.
