All Made Up

EP92 - Immortal Kombat - Mick Ferry High in the hills above Rochdale lives 45-year-old Biff Bronson, a former British Army soldier. Once happily married to his wife Debra, Biff’s life spiraled after a posting in Berlin led him into a hidden underground fight club. What begins as brutal, no-rules combat soon reveals something far darker. The fight club is run by Ruben, a 500-year-old vampire who has secretly manipulated world leaders for centuries. Ruben isn’t just staging fights for entertainment, he’s searching for the strongest man alive, someone worthy of immortality. As Biff claws his way through a global circuit of savage underground bouts, he uncovers Ruben’s true ambition: to crown a champion who will be turned into a vampire and continue his centuries-long reign. The final showdown? Madison Square Garden. The opponent? None other than an Elvis Presley impersonator. From Berlin backstreets to the bright lights of Memphis and New York, this is an All Made Ip story like you’ve never heard before. Wanna follow Mick Ferry…https://www.instagram.com/mickmferry/?hl=en Wanna follow Harry Stachini…Socials: https://linktr.ee/harrystachini Wanna follow Lewis Coleman…Insta: www.instagram.com/lewiscoleman/ Twitter: @LewisColeman93Wanna follow Ben Hart…Insta: www.instagram.com/benhartcomedy/ FB: www.facebook.com/benhartactor Twitter: @benhart0592CreditsRecorded by Liam RigbyEdited by Lewis Colemanwww.instagram.com/clementinebogghargroves/ Produced by www.instagram.com/getgiddier/ Artwork by Elliot www.instagram.com/melodyleeart/ Soundtrack by www.instagram.com/grahammccusker/ #NewPodcast #ComedyPodcast #FightClub #Elvis #Vampire #Fantasy Hosted on Acast.

EP90 - The Cue and The Kite - James CrookIn a weathered static caravan in the sleepy seaside town of Rhyl, 24-year-old Tim Jones drifts through life, long removed from the days he was hailed as a snooker prodigy. Since the tragic death of his beloved grandad a decade ago, Tim has shelved his cue—and his dreams—trading them for a soul-sapping job on an assembly line. But when he's fired by his overbearing manager, Simon, Tim hits rock bottom. Back at the caravan, amidst a fog of frustration, Tim stumbles upon a secret panel containing his grandad’s old birdwatching notebook. Inside lies a single unfulfilled wish: spotting the legendary and elusive Welsh Kite. Seeing this as a final chance to connect with the man who meant everything to him, Tim sets off on an unlikely adventure to the rugged peaks of Tryfan. But Tim’s journey becomes more perilous than he ever imagined—especially with the strange and suspicious Chris Eubank (yes, that Chris Eubank) mysteriously tracking his every move. Now, Tim must face harsh terrain, his inner demons, and possibly an ex-professional boxer, all in pursuit of a bird that may not even exist. From snooker halls to mountaintops, cue balls to rare eggs, this is an all-made-up story like you've never heard before. Wanna follow James Crookhttps://www.instagram.com/jamescrookc...

EP89 - Reel Love - Katerina Robinson28-year-old Ellie-Lou is Essex-born and bred, with dreams bigger than her beloved dad’s struggling chippy, Fish Lips. She’s always wanted to be a social media celebrity, but instead spends her days battering cod. Just as the chips seem well and truly down, Ellie-Lou gets her big break: a spot on a new dating reality show, Reel Love, where couples bond over fishing challenges for the chance to win £30,000. For Ellie-Lou, this isn’t just about fame—it’s about saving Fish Lips from frying in financial ruin. There’s just one catch: Ellie-Lou already has a boyfriend, Danny. Once a hopeful professional footballer, Danny’s dreams crumbled, leaving him bitter and stuck in a job he loathes. For Danny, Ellie-Lou represents both the love of his life and a reminder of what he’ll never achieve. When Ellie-Lou’s antics on Reel Love start making waves, Danny hits boiling point. Fueled by jealousy and resentment, he sets out on a mission to sink her chances of winning—and take Fish Lips down with her.

Determined to escape the tinsel overload, Holly dodges holiday traditions, her cheerfully nosy relatives, and the town's relentless Christmas obsession. Enter a charming lumberjack who chops wood, bakes cookies, and somehow makes Holly question her Scrooge-like existence.

EP84 - Clementine Bogg-Hargroves - Driving Over Christmas (Christmas Special)For Gertrude, Christmas isn’t a time for joy—it’s a relentless reminder of everything she’s lost. Six years ago, her wife and two children were tragically killed. The killer Father Christmas and his sleigh. Ever since that night, Gertrude has devoted her career as a lawyer to proving Santa’s guilt in the crime. The problem? No one believes her. But this Christmas, a miracle arrives in the form of Alan, a scruffy, suspicious elf who turns up at her door with an extraordinary claim: he has dashcam footage that could finally prove Father Christmas is guilty. Seizing the chance for justice, Gertrude teams up with Alan and embarks on a perilous journey to the North Pole to uncover the truth. What begins as a simple quest for evidence spirals into chaos as Gertrude finds herself in a world of bar brawls, seductive women, and highly questionable uses for mistletoe.
