Refreshing Pod - Fringe 2026: Rosco McClelland 

Fringe Fever is set to take over Edinburgh once again. Running from 7th - 31st August 2026.

In the 1st Fringe festival interview for 2026, Johnny speaks to Scottish comedian & slug-nudger Rosco McClelland.

Rosco is a huge football fan, he managed to make it out for the 1st WC game in Boston to watch Scotland take on Haiti, this followed his unofficial song for the Tartan Army that went super viral, including having it recorded with the Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

Outside following Scotland, he's been working on his latest stand up hour called 'The Bones'.

A new show about human evolution, brain and body connections and…hamsters. 

He’ll also be taking the opportunity to look into just what it is that makes him tick? 

Trust us, the story about the hamster (that Rosco kindly shares in this episode) is mind blowing!!

Rosco won the Sir Billy Connolly Spirit of Glasgow Award last year, and his 2024 Fringe show was one of Rolling Stone Magazine’s Top 12 Shows.

He's one not tho miss this year.

“HE IS, INDEED, A SUCCESSOR TO THE BIG YIN…IT’S THAT NO-NONSENSE, ‘SPIRIT OF GLASGOW’ ATTITUDE THAT MAKES MCCLELLAND’S STAND-UP SO POTENT.” 4 Stars : Chortle
