Hi, I'm Emily Dean, and I'm here to tell you all about my podcast, Walking the Dog, where you get to hear well-known names chatting at their most relaxed and off-duty, because it all takes place over a walk with my dog Raymond, the world's most ridiculous-looking Shih Tzu. Raymond and I have had so many brilliant walks with guests like Ricky Jervais and Jack Whitehall, and let's not forget Ed Miliband, who I've just about forgiven for comparing Raymond to a toupee. We are thrilled to be back with some amazing new guests for you, like Brecht's politics host, Alastair Campbell. Oh my God, look at the physique of these guys.

I used to look like that in the olden days. You still got it? Yeah, a 66-year-old version of it. That guy had an eight-pack, didn't he? Come on, Baba. I like it when men do that. What, take the shirts off? No.

Claire Balding. But how do you deal with trolls? Do you ignore them? Yeah, I do, actually. Yeah, fine. That's pretty effective. An actual astronaut Tim Peek. Do you miss space, Tim?

I do, yeah. I think about it, pretty much on a daily basis at some point during the day. It must be weird though, because I mean, you're looking up and thinking very differently from us. When you look up there and you kind of see the blue sky, and you think it's not blue. No, no, no, come on. I know what, 16 kilometres up there, it's a very, very different place. Yeah, and so I guess you do have that kind of.

kind of secret look up at the sky and think, yeah, I know what's up there beyond that blue sky. We'd love you to join us on our walks, so do subscribe and listen to Walking the Dog wherever you get your podcasts. What's that, Raymond? No, I'm not asking people to send you free treats. Keep it classy. Walking the Dog, a Goalhanger podcast brought to you by Pet Plan.
