James Acaster is one of Britain’s top comedy exports right now. But for many years, he had a problem that just wouldn’t go away — his audience. James would get so frustrated and enraged by some of the people who came to see him, he almost quit comedy (plot spoiler: he didn’t). In the middle of his North American tour, James drops by our studio to tell guest host Talia Schlanger why he used to get so angry with his audience, and the journey he took when he realised maybe they weren’t the problem.
