A podcast from comedians Mike Wozniak, Henry Paker and Benjamin Partridge. Each week the three beans tackle a different theme, suggested by the listening audience.
Came to it a few months ago via Elis & John. Took me a few episodes to get into the vibe - so glad I persevered. Some of the most absurdly funny conversation I’ve ever heard. I’m about to go into mourning as I have almost caught up 😫

Five Stars is Not Enough
Nothing more has brought me more unbridled joy over the last 9 months than going through the complete beans back catalogue three times

Podcast gilded gold
Effortlessly charming, incredibly funny at times. Ben, Mike and of course Henry seem so deliciously nice. It has been, and always will be, my favourite 3 band podcast.

Disappointing
Big Elis n John fan so heard this was good. Listened to budget airlines episode. Really unfunny unlikeable posh boys talking about stuff they don’t have a clue on but have read elsewhere (houses in the 1970s ? Were they even born then ?). Forced and unfunny.

Consistently amazing
How they can keep up this level of consistency hilarious surreal comedy is absolutely incredible
2024-11-20
Just so funny and delightful
Very enjoyable chats between 3 funny and likeable men/beans

Favourite podcast of all time, and I listen to many hours daily
This is my favourite podcast ever. It’s perfect. Such a lovely combination of lovely men.

LOVE IT
Thank you Beans. I’m a Patreon member but I love the show so much! I came here because I loved Mike but I now love you all. So funny, so relatable and a welcome escape from life!

Beef to beans
Hooked by the jingles, stayed for the lukewarm banter! Came from Ben’s longrunning project “The beef and dairy network podcast” which is also great.

Strangely Brilliant
A huge stew of weird cleverness. Absolutely love it.
2024-09-20
Nothing else is funny any more
Genuinely, this has ruined all other listening experiences for me. Nothing else matches up.

My favourite podcast!
Hooked since the first episode, absolutely wonderful bizarre discussions by three lovely beans. Always so excited to see it land in my downloads and regularly makes me laugh like a madman in public spaces. Thank you beans!

One of the best ever
Cheers lads 🧡

Unsure
I found this podcast after it was recommended in the comments of another podcast. But I wish podcasts that are well established had a START HERE podcast. Point me in the direction of your latest quality broadcast. Because the one I listened to had me completely baffled as to what I was listening too. I checked back after to see if it was listed as comedy. Sorry, I didn’t get to the end but gave it the best part of an hour

Genuinely perfect.
The one podcast I’d take to a desert island. Three Bean Salad is like a sumptuous hotel buffet of European hams. One is a haphazard spread of lukewarm offerings that those with braver tastes may pick at in the hope of a satisfying morsel, and the other is a sumptuous hotel buffet of European hams.
*plays the Old Switcheroo jingle*
And one of the few podcasts that’s properly worth the Patreon, especially if your relationship with cinema is, at best, lukewarm.

So great
Really really good
2024-08-14
So, so, so, so
so, so, so, so, so, so, so good! You reap what you ‘so’. Three Bean Salad is a must listen for anyone with ears.
2024-07-18
3 lovely bean salad..
Once you get over that 2 of the presenters sound almost identical, you’ll enter a world of absolute joy. The show is funny, heartwarming and full of top notch jingles. I cant recommend this highly enough.. Well I can, it’s really really good. There.
I hope you listen, I hope you get through the sound a like thing and enjoy being taken of to tangents that you had never thought of before.

Joy and giggles
Can’t believe that I’ve only just become aware of these wonderful Beans. Thank goodness I can start from the beginning and make up my lost bean time.
I really admire how they weave their way through some very clever comedy I can’t help but giggle along with them. Brings back lovely memories of Peter Cook and Dudley Moore and early Monty Python.
Just love it
2024-06-14
Can’t get enough of this pod
Just a few guys rambling on about whatever they feel like and makes them laugh. They spend about 20% of the episode actually on topic. Hilarious chat
2024-05-30
Nothing funnier
Without doubt the funniest podcast I’ve ever listened to. Has me giggling like a fool on a weekly basis. I want them to my friends - and this is in fact the joy of the show: each episode feels like the funniest night you’ve had in ages hunkered in the corner of a pub with some mates. Listen from episode 1 for deepest joy.

I’d been bemoaning lack of comedy podcasts recently…
I’d been bemoaning lack of comedy podcasts recently. This is such a breath of fresh air and no ‘Desert Island Disks / Off Menu etc’ format in sight! 🕊️

Pompidou?
The funniest podcast out there by quite some distance. Get it in your ears now!
2024-04-26
Delightful nonsense
Absolutely daft conversations,reminds me of when my best mate,wife and I go out for a few beers & start talking utter stupidness
2024-04-19
My absolute favourite podcast of all time
Their fun and gentle banter is a total break from reality and the world. Without doubt the absolute highlight of my week!
2024-04-12
Just really funny
Can’t believe how they are able to riff in such a funny way on such a consistent basis! Proper funny
2024-04-12
Very funny
Three idiots old enough to know better talk about random stuff. Almost as much fun as indoor fireworks but also leaves you with the same feeling of disappointment. 8/10
2024-03-06
Still can’t tell them apart
Despite listening for a year. Because It’s so astoundingly funny. I saw Bonjamin in person yesterday. He looks like precisely none of the voices.

The funniest podcast I have ever listened to

My favorite podcast of all time
This is, in fact, my favorite podcast of all time.

Is it nonsense? is it therapy for our times? Is it podcast perfection? Yes to all three
At a time of climate crisis, never had there been more need for lukewarm. Are they saving the world? Possibly. Are there so many in jokes that if you attempt to start kid way through you’ll bleed from your ears? Probably. But no matter how tough things get, this podcast has yet to fail to lift my spirits. They are the three ultimate pub friends, clever enough to keep the banter following, self effacing enough to be utterly loveable and probably generous enough to get a round in.
Start at the beginning, forgive episode 1 where they are getting into the swing of things and never look back. I listened to the the sleeper train section in the episode ‘Hats’ on a walk - so funny, I had to pee behind a tree for fear of a bladder malfunction

Pompidou
If you had asked me about my interests before I had listened to this podcast, I probably would have said I’m only involved or interested in the raising of dairy herds and beef animals. However since I have opened my ears and heart to beans I find myself absorbed in posters, tusks, portraiture, Jeffreys/Geoffreys, immortality, S04 E01 and crisps. So come on in and luxuriate in the regal zone, digestive tract talk, the Pompidou section and the guitar ridden sounds of America……………………….burgers.

Brilliantly funny
The three beans take a suggestion from their listeners every week and then wilfully shoot off on a tangent, barely touching on the topic.
Consistently hilarious and the highlight of my week, except for when there are 5 Wednesdays in the month.
Highly recommended.
2024-01-24
Smug overkill.
Can’t deal with the smugness any more. It’s basically a podcast that makes me feel bad. Been trying to work out why as they are 3 individually funny men but somehow they make me want to shoot myself in the head. After shooting everyone else in the world in the head.
2024-01-18
Love these guys
Mates talking nonsense. Love it.
2024-01-16
Welcome to a very funny podcast
This is one of the funniest shows ever. Do not hesitate. Listen now!
2024-01-12
Hilarious!
Look forward to every new episode of this show

Best Avatar Fancast Available
Only listen if you’re into lukewarm banter about Avatar because that’s all you’re getting.

Three Bean Salad
Absolutely brilliant show. A genuine laugh out loud (LOL) show. Three genuinely funny chaps having a ball, and they’re happy to let us hear their babbling.
2023-10-27
The pub chat you wish you were having
Honestly, none of it is important. None of it matters. It’s just three guys and their random chat. But it isn’t full of misogyny or sports or bravado - instead it has honesty and imagination and absolute silliness (and some genuinely superb editing). I could listen to these chaps talk for weeks.
2023-10-25
Awesome
Probably one of the funniest podcasts out there.
2023-10-23
Lukewarm banter
At its finest

A review from no-one special
Fantastically glorious, silly funny, mind expanding, genuine unbiased discussion on topics that have little to no relevance to the original subject matter.
Three charming gents, three mates chatting maximum waffle and having a good one whilst providing comic gold.
The Rome episode, (number 3 I think) the Russell Crowe & panini section, one of the few occasions that resulted in tears from an audio based stimulus only. Gold.
Whilst always leaving a few episodes in reserve, listening again, intermittently, from the beginning, doesn’t take the shine away.
