In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Louis CK is excellent
Double episodes too, every week! Don't know if thats good for the long run, but he explains the format in an email:
Hello friend.
This is Louis C.K. I'm a comedian. You know about me from something or other. Anyway, sorry to bother you. I just wanted to let you know that my series on FX, LOUIE, returns for it's fourth season tonight at 10pm. Tonight being Monday, May 5th. There will be 2 episodes tonight, 10 and 10:30 and there will be 2 episodes every Monday for the next 7 weeks.
I took a year off between last season and this one, mostly so I could have more time to do the show, to make it better. This season is very different from past seasons. The first three episodes are pretty typical of what we've done in the past, Self-contained stories. But the next 6 episodes after that are all connected in one story. Then we have a three part story and a two part story. So lots of… parts stories. Yeah.
Anyway, I just wanted to make you aware that the show is coming back tonight.
If you live in a part of the world that doesn't get the show at the same time then I'm sorry to bother you.
I hope you all have a great Spring and summer. Enjoy the show tonight.
Regards,
Louis CK

First two episodes were great. In love with this show, it's so clever and obscure 
Yvonne Strahovski 
Ooohhh, did not know this was back. That's tonight's viewing sorted.
I watched both episodes of this followed by both episodes of new 24. Strahkovski overloadYvonne Strahovski
The poker scenes with Norton and DiPaolo are always great, the first episode one was great.
The monologue at the end of episode three is getting a lot of coverage. It definitely represented a point of view you don't hear from enough.
Watched the first two episodes of the new season, it'd been so long I'd forgotten how much I loved this show. It's up there, it really is. It has a certain charm, I'm not quite sure I can put my finger on it, but it has something other comedy shows don't offer.
Seems like this season is mostly in Louis' head. Especially episode two, I mean he can't be actually paying $5k a month for the rest of his life.
It's always been really obscure, it's not always meant to be taken literally.
Loved episodes 3 and 4, this really is a top drawer show.
Great stuff. Louis CK is really much more than a great comedian, a great filmmaker and storyteller.
The "Model" was brilliant in so many ways. One of the best of the shows till date.
It comes highly recommended, i'll be getting into it after MM and GOT finish.
i'm watching the first season and i'm loving it
his shrink is a genius, it's so funny
his shrink is a genius, it's so funny
and i loved his mother turning "lesbonian" and marring the sexiest girl ever in that show
My god he really is sickeningly talented; the most thought provoking and likeable stand-up, plus his tv show is one of the best comedies out there. I just hope he doesn't get so rich he can't be bothered any more.
Ep. 4 or 5, when he's on the plane and pilot keeps on pausing, is a straight copy from Family Guy.
God, if you ever read about Isaac Newton or Pythagoras you'd probably implode.
His food scenes are porn-like.
Isaac Newton was only funny unintentionally when he went on about fairies at the bottom of his garden.
Definitely gonna have to try a bang-bang sometime.
I'm thinking chinese then fried chicken.

Really like the latest couple of episodes, with a bit of Pamela Adlon
I love the scenes with his girls, Jane is brilliant. That last scene in the second episode with the doctor was great as well.

Imagine what Einstein, Wittgenstein, Feynman would do to this chap! Or Monty Python..
evra was exaggerating but compared to other comedians/actors/producers/writers, Louis puts a lot of them to shame with his creativity and story telling. I also adore the sense of obscurity he puts into the show and the minimalism which makes the scenes so engrossing.
The 9th episode this season was incredible. Some great scenes in this show. The scene where he tells Pamela how he feels, the fat girl monologue, the bullying episode, the hurricane and waiter part of this episode.
Yeah it's been fantastic. When he was trying to kiss Pamela
That scene with Pamela was incredible, I didn't know whether I should be uncomfortable or piss myself laughing. 'This would be rape if you weren't so stupid'.
Pamela is fantastic, I'm glad she's back.
Pamela is fantastic, I'm glad she's back.
Great season so far, next week is a 90 minute episode as well. I'm loving the news/weather reports, I pissed myself laughing when they said half if New York is dead.
Lebron james is dead, and the rest of the Miami heats and 8 million other people in Miami.
Wasn't it the whole of Brooklyn?
That might be one of my favourite episodes (putting them both together) Louis keeps on upping the standard, great appearance from Renner also.
Wasn't really a fan of that. Took too long.
Renner was awesome
Hilarious?
Haven't been as impressed with this series.
I wouldn't even know how to classify it, I don't think it belongs to any specific genre. Comedy drama? Dunno. Still excellent, really liked how the two episodes were constructed.
It's barely even comedy at this stage. More drama/good story telling for me. I would prefer some more laughs since he's the best comic around.
I sort of want to see him take another crack at directing a feature film. Especially since he will probably have a lot more creative freedom than he did for Pootie Tang. He could be the next Woody Allen.
His shtick works better on TV than it would in the cinema.
