Michael Spicer’s comedy edit made that Jake Humphrey advice video unmissable
Back in 2019, BT Sport presenter Jake Humphrey shared some life advice on his Instagram account, which recently went viral again because of this tweet by Si Lloyd.
I often wonder how many people binned off their wives on the strength of this pic.twitter.com/t8b2yKBAuo

It’s safe to say that there wasn’t a rush to adopt his philosophy.

“Babe, sit down, we need to talk”
“What? What is it?”
“It’s over. I can’t do this anymore.”
“But….why?”

Some great advice here. I especially like ‘break up with your wife & fail’. pic.twitter.com/8PIJ4xQw0g

Fortunately, though perhaps not for Jake Humphrey, the clip caught the eye of comedian and actor Michael Spicer, who made it even funnier with his next-level edit.
“I want to do my job without being bothered by someone who sounds like a leisure centre manager with a few pints in him.”
He shared the sketch on Twitter, where it got these appreciative responses.

Hahahaha. 'Inspirational' podcasters need to be stopped – and I think this is the best way to do it. https://t.co/PehsIfARQ8

I usually just say to a plumber/heating engineer " I'll leave you to it." The years I've wasted not being a life coach for them . Sad.

This is surely the best testament to the quality of Michael’s sketch.
Just missed my 2nd flight of the day home to see my family, which I was counting down the minutes to. I’m throughly pissed off and miserable and you just made me laugh out loud at Heathrow airport. I needed that. Michael sincerely thank you.
