The Recipe Badge - September 2023 September 28th, 2023

My second Hey Duggee episode was broadcast on Cbeebies this morning and has been on the iPlayer all week. The Recipe Badge – Season 4, episode 39, if you or mainly your kids, fancy a watch. As always, it was a lot of fun to write for and me and the kid had to road […]

Super chuffed to get an Industry Excellence nomination from the Manchester Animation Festival. I never get nommed for anything so it was really exciting to hear this.

Hey Tiernan! - September 2022 September 12th, 2022

My first Hey Duggee episode arrived on iPlayer today which is unbelievably exciting. ‘The Accessory Badge’ is online now and will air on Cbeebies on Thursday Sept 15th at 7.05am.

Its full of pieces by left wing writers, musicians, lecturers, activists and more on what piece of culture inspired their left wing politics and ideology, with beautiful artworks created alongside them by a bevvy of […]

The Joy Of Not Running - December 2020 December 29th, 2020

In a move that has surprised even me, I wrote a piece for Men’s Fitness Magazine. Yes really. It’s about the joy of not running (but only after you’ve been for a run, obviously). Do have a read if you like: https://mensfitness.co.uk/fitness/comedian-tiernan-douieb-on-the-joy-of-not-running/

Working Dads Blog - November 2020 November 5th, 2020

I’ve written another blog for WorkingDads.co.uk about podcasting and sausages. The headline plus picture looks suspicious which I entirely blame the editor James Miller for. Have a read at: https://www.workingdads.co.uk/daughter-working-dads-something-love/ 

The Unknown Origin Of Ideas - February 2015 February 3rd, 2015

‘Where do you get your ideas from?’ is one of the most irritating questions you get asked when you do comedy. It’s irritating because it doesn’t have a very good answer. Much like ‘What’s your favourite joke?’ where the answer is ‘I don’t really have one’ or I tell any that made me laugh as […]

Don’t Get A Real Job - October 2014 October 19th, 2014

On Friday, backstage at a show, I again had the conversation I’ve had a lot, with comedians. That one about what you’d do if you had to go back to a normal job. And again I pointed out that I just wouldn’t cope with a 9 to 5. The same room everyday, the same people, […]
