34 - "Emohawk: Polymorph 2" with Andy Farrant

From hosting OutsideXbox and the Mom Can’t Cook! podcast, to winning awards for his horror writing, Andy Farrant is a renaissance man of geekery. He tells tales of how his parents used to bribe him with Red Dwarf videos, and the lines of Dwarf dialogue that live in his head. We also chat about how the show has aged, and explore the idea of series 1 and 2 as prequel. Then it’s time to discuss series 6 episode 4, Emohawk: Polymorph II. Is it a crime against continuity? A missed opportunity? Or a delicious plate of sugary treats? Plus: psycho Ace, Lister doing his job, the genius of Robert Llewellyn, and the worst people for every situation. We also attempt to answer the most important question: Why Ainsley Harriot? SO WHAT IS IT?Better Than Life is the pod where comedians talk Red Dwarf, the greatest sci-fi sitcom, one episode at a time. With a fresh guest every ep, we’re your perfect podcast companion for a first watch or a rewatch. Be warned: spoilers! Hosted and produced by Fergus (huge fan) and John (lapsed fan). Huge thanks to Alex Watson for invaluable help in making this podcast a thing. FANCY SOME LINKS?Catch up with Andy on social media platforms @farrantula Check out OutsideXbox and Oxventure on YouTube.Read Andy’s spooky stories at his UH OH Substack. Listen to Mom Can’t Cook! wherever you like to hear podcasts.WHAT DO YOU THINK?Have a word on our socials: X/Instagram/Facebook - @itsBTLpodEMAIL USWe’d love to ask your questions on the pod – and to hear your feedback.
