Welcome to The Encore Club - Where your dream concert becomes a reality!
This week on The Encore Club, we’re joined by the hilarious and unfiltered Matt Richardson—comedian, presenter, and all-round chaos magnet. From getting roasted by Sharon Osbourne on his first day at The Xtra Factor, to ghost-hunting with Jack Osbourne, to falling flat on his face (literally) on Dancing on Ice, this episode is packed with jaw-dropping stories from the wild world of British entertainment.
But it’s not all telly madness. Matt also dives deep into his love of pop punk and emo anthems, shares the story of his very first gig (Green Day at Milton Keynes Bowl!), and tells us what his dream concert would look like—featuring bands like South Arcade, Taking Back Sunday, and of course, Green Day.
We talk festivals, failure, fandom, and everything in between—including some slightly-too-personal ghost stories and an emotional shoutout to his autistic younger brother, Alex.
Whether you’re into comedy, chaotic celebrity encounters, or the glory days of 2000s emo, this is one for the books. Tune in, laugh hard, and maybe shed a tear or two (of laughter or nostalgia—we’ll take both).
