Adam talks with Australian comedian Sam Campbell as they walk around The Latitude Festival and get to know each other. Topics include whether it's OK for a Brit to do an Aussie accent, Sam's upbringing in Queensland, Adam's hat, the rules of stand-up comedy, whether AI is good at writing plays, why Kasabian chose their name, ear injuries, why painting sheep pink is the kind of thing conservatives do and creative angst. But mainly Sam makes Adam laugh.
