The Rest Is Entertainment

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Rest Is Entertainment is a British podcast hosted by producer and author Richard Osman and journalist and writer Marina Hyde.[1]

It launched in November 2023, and is produced by Goalhanger Podcasts. Osman and Hyde generally discuss contemporary entertainment stories, in the world of film, tv, stage, books and other entertainment arenas.[2]

Format[edit]

The podcast ordinarily releases two episodes every week: a "main" episode and a "questions" episode. The main episodes last around 30 to 50 minutes, and involve Osman and Hyde discussing contemporary events and news stories, mostly from the United Kingdom. During the question time episodes, they answer questions from listeners. The questions are not limited to topics formerly discussed on the podcast, and include news stories not discussed on the main episodes as well as the hosts' entertainment careers.[3][4]

The episodes are also filmed and uploaded to YouTube.[5]
