Pull Back Reveal

DAVE JOHNS is a standup, writer & actor and he chats with me about comedy, strange gigs, humour, Edinburgh Fringe, life, meeting movie stars, oh and some little ‘fillum’ called ‘I, Daniel Blake’ that he was in that won him the Palme d’Or. 

As one of the most respected and loved comics on the circuit Dave's place in comedy royalty has long been guaranteed. He has given a leg up to some of the biggest stars in comedy. His story is fascinating and inspiring, but throughout Dave remains grounded and real and its a bloody delight.

Enjoy!

MARKUS BIRDMAN is a headline act all over the world. Describing himself as a comedian, columnist, Dad, daydreamer and doodler he is about to launch into his 12th solo show at the Edinburgh Fringe. We obviously explore that and his unique theme and presentation, but we also touch on the fun subjects of religion and having a stroke! A delightful, funny and fascinating conversation with a genuinely lovely bloke.

 "Birdman is the all-round package; witty, controversial, hip, topical, silly. A master of timing and physical comedy, he made me laugh so hard it hurt." BBC

“Probably the most absorbing show I’ve seen. Completely spell-binding." Chortle

ALAN LEACH has been the drummer for the indie legends that are Shed Seven right from their formation in 1990. He has toured the world, had 4 top 10 albums and 13 top 40 singles...yet here he is putting himself through an Edinburgh Fringe with his part stand up, part pub quiz show " Alan Shed's Music, Comedy and Everything Else Interactive Quiz Show ".

CALLY BEATON is a comedian that I was so excited to talk with! A natural storyteller full of intelligent, distinctive and punchline-rich material, she is currently on top form with an Edinburgh Fringe show already creating a buzz during preview season. Coming to the craft later than most, Cally has an extra dimension to her material and writing and a unique voice on the circuit. During the podcast we cover this along with the theme of her new Edfringe show, the menopause, aging, ambition, balancing a high powered and successful career with creativity, the legend of standup that inspired her to take the leap, comedy and the circuit. It really is a joyous episode, covering some serious topics, but packed to the rafters with joviality...plus baby makes her 2nd ever guest appearance on the podcast!

ITS A DOUBLE HEADLINER SHOW! Laura Lexx & Dan Antopolski...both amazing!

LAURA LEXX, star of Live at the Apollo, is a ‘bouncy, bubbly stand up star’ (Telegraph) shining a hilarious light on how hard it is to be a good person these days. Can you change the world without offending anyone? We talk about her brilliant new Edfringe show 'Knee Jerk', where her humour comes from, how she started out and more. Its a shorter chat than normal as Laura was kind enough to share as much time with us as possible, but it is delightful all the same!

DAN ANTOPOLSKI  is an award-winning comedian and comic actor. He has received Perrier Award Nominations both for Best Newcomer and Best Show. He also won the BBC New Comedy Award and in 2009 he won the Dave Best Joke Award.
