Bez more you1/2/2023 ![]() It’s not often that funny of itself, but it creates an incredibly soothing, why-not atmosphere. Indeed, that’s half the offer: he won’t go too fast and there will be good-natured, self-deprecating chat in between. ![]() However fit you think you are – I don’t think I’m an athlete, but I’m younger than Bez, with, I’d hope, less mileage – you can still feel the burn from almost anything if you give it your full attention.Īny mobilising is better than no mobilising (very like politics). This was week one, and it gets more challenging as it goes along, but it established some interesting principles.

I wasn’t really expecting the eponymous Bez, king of the 90s, crown prince of dancing to music people didn’t previously dance to, to deliver a workout. ![]() I embarked on Get Buzzin’ with Bez – available on YouTube to all decent men and women who know how to fast-forward through a Disney+ advert – expecting Happy Mondays music and a bit of arm-flailing. ![]()
