Ep. 126 - Michael Spicer tells us how he created the world-famous Man in the Room Next Door sketches and more!


Listen Later

This is one of a special series of short episodes speaking to some of the best comedians appearing at this year's Edinburgh Fringe! These episodes will be released daily during the week of 8 August 2022.


Michael Spicer literally became an overnight sensation when he posted his first-ever Man in the Room Next Door sketch on Twitter. Since then, he has become one of the biggest comedians on Twitter and appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden, as well as acting in programmes such as Bridgerton and After Life. This month, he brings the Room Next Door to the Edinburgh Fringe.


We loved chatting with Michael and hearing how he owes his success to Boris Johnson, talking about how he finds and edits material for his sketches, and also discussing how to stand out as a comedian on social media. We also hear about his show at the Fringe and find out what is planned after the Room Next Door...
