My auncle told me they were surprised to discover at Off Menu Live that Ed is almost the same height as James, and to be fair, if your only frame of reference was the podcast photos, you could see why they thought otherwise...

Like, he really does have some weird skill of making himself seem so much smaller without actually looking like he's crouching all that much. Whatever the opposite of that "he likes to be tall meme" is, that's Ed in Off Menu photos 😂

James laughing at Edwin Coffee is still one of the best intros to the podcast ever 😂
Also for those who don't know, in the first half of their first live shows they did back in 2021, Ed did a stand-up set in character and costume of Edwin Coffee. Phenomenal stuff.

so for reference, this is joe's absolutely bonkers order at james acaster's imaginary restaurant:
sourdough with salty butter, focaccia, and cheesy focaccia (but this is just bread, not the starter, and no butter on the focaccia)
a guinness and six oysters (but this is not his starter)
a few frites (also not his starter?) with mayo
steak tartare
a dirty martini with a sidejar
for his pasta dish BUT NOT HIS MAIN, orecchiette alla barese
a glass of bang-average white wine, chilled but totally forgettable
a big buttery fish, possibly the turbot from brat
on the side, any green and any spud
a glass of piquepoul or sancerre or arneis; chilled
four madeleines from the french house, an affogato that has pistachio ice cream rather than vanilla, and some fernet-branca
and the whole thing is served to him by dustin as his waiter
keep in mind this is supposed to only be a four course meal

Propaganda below the cut:
silly boys talk about food and yell at politicians sometimes

So Joseph Quinn not only is a maniac for bread, a wine afficianado, but can also speak Italian...He will be now known as Guiseppe and I want to marry him.

What do u think Herb’s favorite foods would be? Or just food he really likes
Hey babes, so when I first got this ask I had absolutely no thoughts on the matter whatsoever, but recently I read the transcript of the episode of Ed Gamble and James Acaster's podcast Off Menu in which Stanley Tucci guest stars, and I decided to take the ones I thought gave the biggest Herb vibe about them.

And a bonus, because I thought this parallel between Stanley and Herb is really interesting:

I just spent an hour listening to Joseph Quinn talk about food, and now I’m convinced that not only could I look at him smiling forever, I could also listen to him talk forever. My takeaways from the podcast:
1. As an American, British people are so funny to me. And it’s even funnier to hear them talk about American things they think are weird, like saying “sure” and thinking that “I appreciate you” is too forward
2. I’m going to start saying “please” more in the off chance I ever get to meet Joseph, so he doesn’t think I’m just another American who doesn’t say please enough!
3. They talked about it for probably ten minutes, but I still don’t understand wth a hatch is
4. The image of Joseph spitting an oyster into a martini is now permanently stored in my brain, thank you
5. I’m from California, but I agree with these Brits that people saying “I’ll do” instead of “I’ll have” when ordering food is weird
6. Joseph saying “shall we move on?” Always so polite lol
7. Also did he just make a self-effacing joke about being forgettable?!
8. Joseph has a flatmate!! And apparently they hide fish skeletons around their flat for the other to find?? Idk if that was a joke
9. Love the idea of starting with the mediocre wine and then moving on to the good stuff
10. I’m going to try a pistachio affogato at the soonest possible opportunity that sounds amazing
Thank you for reading my essay on our man’s endless charm and impeccable taste!

Okay so I’ve listened to Joseph Quinn’s episode of the podcast Off Menu like 3 times now and the absolute chaos of this man is incredible. Literally listening again as I write this because it makes me so happy. Anyways, things I loved:
- First of all, the three most giggly boys on the planet - and I don’t blame them, I was laughing my ass off the entire time
- Joseph’s goddamn voice. (I don’t think this needs elaboration)
- Surprising Things: Joe’s new low budget tv show where he jumps out from behinds things to surprise people
- Him talking about being so far down the rabbit hole with his American accent that he had to talk to Keery about if it sounded okay
- The way he said “eat it” about picky eaters
- His whole speech on how sparkling water is bad for you when this man creates a fucking 7 course meal with a pasta course
- The commentary on how Americans speak (“I know I’m good, I’m just sorry”)
- The way he yelled bread 5 times like he says I don’t know when people ask him about Eddie coming back for season 5
- This man’s absolute devotion to bread
- The fact that he probably does save a little bit of all parts of his meal for his last bite
- “Carry the 1, divide the 2”
- “I’ve already eaten”
- His entire imaginary scenario where he’s sitting alone on a bench in a shack across the street from the dream restaurant eating oysters with a portable table he brought himself. Every time I listen to this, imagining this scenario kills me
- “Road oysters???”
- The shack/hatch debate
- The juxtaposition of “We can get through this, we’re close” and “I don’t think we’re done yet” Let him into the restaurant my god haha
- “Oh he’s gonna have a fucking problem with this, isn’t he?”
- The way he says “fucking” through clenched teeth
- The flirtatious way he says “what’re you doing later?” due to sheer infatuation with the idea of an oyster martini
- The idea of him spitting an oyster into his martini so he doesn’t get caught carrying outside food into the restaurant sends me
- Ugh, the breathy sigh after “I’m such a sucker for them”
- Dickhead bats lol
- “I’m doing the hands, the music hands to make the music” / “Dustin’s hands” and the absolute cackling after
- The sexy motherfucking way he says “Do you like that?” in the discussion of Eddie flipping his guitar onto his back (“Drilled it” ughh)
- “See?” “What do ya mean see? Why’re you looking at me like that?” and the giggling that commences
- The goddamn PASTA COURSE. MARRY. ME.
- The chorizo broccoli pasta that must be discussed (the fact that they are bursting with laughter the entire time)
- “How’s the shape indescribable?”
- “Sausage is a sausage”
- “It’s the whole black pepper thing that just gets on my tits” and the fact that he still doesn’t send the pepper people away
- Dustin as his waiter (I’d pay money)
- “You gonna fuck it mate? You gonna fuck the Caesar salad, are you?”
- The fact that he wants a “bang average glass of white wine”.. “chilled and totally forgettable, like me”
- The giggling after “big buttery fish”
- He’s talked in multiple interviews about how he loves sharing food with friends. A darling *chef’s kiss*
- “You were doing an accent? … Oh.”
- “I know what you want.” / “What do I want?” Sorry but I personally love when people know exactly what I’m talking about without me specifying because they get my vibes
- About the fish skeleton: “And then you take it home” and everyone just pausing after he says it. Plus the game he plays with his flatmate
- The absolute and unwarranted defamation of Ariel
- “It’s not feeling like a dream meal now”
- The leveling up of the wine and the whole missed wine/philistine pun
- One of the hosts not remembering that he told the other host that his wedding food was the best wedding food he’d ever had (“Well I said it to you on the day” has me cracking up)
- The way Joseph wants to say his favorite drink is a fucking filthy martini but then holds in the curse as if the way he says filthy isn’t basically a panty-dropping curse itself (hence the blog name lol)
- His disappointment with the hosts for not having had lunch at The French House / “boys” (fond exasperation)
- “It’s a bit fucking actor of me” plus him loving when menus are handwritten
- Him loving pistachio ice cream since he was young and describing madelines as “bespoke”
- Him describing having coffee as an “uppy”
- Going to Duke’s after this stomach destroyer of a meal
- The Quinn handshake lol
Absolutely loved all of his meal choices and drinks! The hosts were absolutely wonderful. If you haven’t listened to it yet and want to be delighted, I definitely recommend!
