The Dollop Live

History buff and comedian Dave Anthony was considering starting a new podcast in
2014. His idea was to write up an unknown story from American history and read it to a
different comedian each week. Having not heard of the story before, Dave hoped the
comedian’s reaction would be hilarious. He gave it a go and his first guest was comedian
Gareth Reynolds. They immediately clicked and fans flooded social media telling Dave
to never change the co-host. And he didn’t.

Sticking to the formula of Dave reading Gareth a story he has never heard, The Dollop
quickly shot up the charts. Fans of both comedy and history were drawn to the wild
stories and quick improv skills of Gareth. With millions of downloads, The Dollop has
become a regular presence on top of the podcast charts, as well as selling out shows in
both the US and Australia.
