Pull Back Reveal

Tony Law is a  genuine legend of alternative comedy. Often discussed in terms of being a 'cult' comedian, he is by his own admission, making up for lost time, but now producing some of his greatest work ever. We have a big chat that was actually spread over 3 phonecalls due to other commitments and really a desire to just keep chatting! There aren't too many stones that we don't kick at, if not completely turn over.

This was a tricky one to edit and I have been pretty ruthless to get it down to an acceptable length, whilst not ripping the heart out of it! Therefore  please feel free to attack this in chunks! 

Get ready for us talking about his Edinburgh Fringe show "Tony Law Identifies", comedy, standup, sobriety, alcoholism, history, DNA, woke, identity,  plenty of name dropping and some good laughs too.

Craig Campbell is a Canadian standup based out of Devon UK. Lauded for his free flowing story telling style Craig has played all over the world to audiences who never quite know what is going to happen next. His career has seen him sword fight Jim Carey, support Frankie Boyle on tour, appear on Russel Howard’s Good News, Michael McKintyre Roadshow and Dave’s One Night Stand. Craig takes us back to the early days, Canada as a new comic, white water rafting as a career, his views on the circuit.

Craig by his own admission is a bit of a nightmare on social media, but I am glad actually that we stayed on track talking about him and his background and comedy, rather than feeling a need to be controversial and push buttons.It was a tricky episode to edit down into a show as there was so much content and I had enough to go a few different ways with the theme - we have some bonus material from this one that I will definitely release at a future date. 

You can check Craig out at this years Edinburgh Fringe Festival where he will be performing his show Joyful Pain and tickets can be found here:  https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/craig-campbell-s-joyful-pain

Phil Ellis is an award winning standup comedian who excels in delivering the unexpected. A gifted and naturally funny performer with a penchant for the obscure. He is a star of BBC Radio 4. The hit Edinburgh Fringe show Funz & Gamez won him the Fosters Panel Prize, which later went to BBC3. Phil’s TV appearances include The Russell Howard Hour (Sky), Drunk History: UK (Comedy Central), as well as writing and performing credits on BBC Three’s The Tapeface Tapes. Phil also co-wrote three comedy shorts- Phil’s Ill- for Dave. 

Phil is without doubt a rising star and he has just finished series 2 of his very own BBC Radio 4 sitcom, Phil Ellis Is Trying. Phil and Kev are old friends and the conversation flows from memories of each other’s early material, to how Phils anarchic style fit the comedy club circuit, his big break, BBC Radio 4 recording with heroes like Johnny Vegas, Alexi Sayle, Lee Mack and others, and plenty of giggling. We even talk about Leanne.

You can catch Phil at Edinburgh with his show Au Revoir. Tickets here:  https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/phil-ellis-au-revoir
