Baz Ashmawy joined Mario this morning for this week`s profile interview, when Mario got over the gloriousness of Baz`s hair, they settled in for a great chat!

Baz shared his journey of growing up the outsider as a mixed race kid in Ireland, what success really is and the failures that he encountered to lead him to an Emmy win and a hugely successful television career!

Of course we couldn`t have Baz in without talking about his hero - his Mammy. Nancy travelled the world with him in the Emmy winning series "50 ways to Kill Your Mammy"

She raised me on her own , worked two jobs, shes a legend.

 

Join Baz for his brand new comedy show, where he talks about growing up in Dublin as a half Egyptian/half Irish boy in a council estate in Dublin and being raised by his mam Nancy, who then found fame in her 70s! Baz will touch on his success and its benefits and losses ... and of course raising six children of his own.
