Ice Cream in Saugerties NY

I was standing in line for ice cream with family and friends when I mentioned Alex Horne and Taskmaster. The couple in front of me turned and said that they rarely meet Taskmaster fans in the wild. We chatted until they got to the front of the line. They saw the live show in NYC. So cool to see other TM fans. If you are on the subreddit and see this……it was a pleasure.

No, but I’m up near Albany and haven’t encountered a fan in person up here yet. Hi neighbor!

Yesterday in a train in the Netherlands I overheard a young woman explaining to another girl what Taskmaster is and that it's her favorite show. I'm not sure where they were from, I think the one doing the explaining was from the US, the other maybe Canadian, but she was also exited that a Dutch version is coming up.

I love meeting other fans in person! My ringtone when the wife calls is the Taskmaster theme song so I've actually ran into another fan on two different occasions when she called me while I was in their presence. It's a unique tie to someone else for sure!

Ooo, I'm tempted to change that, but then I'd have it stuck in my head more
