In this episode, I talk to the great comedian, MICHELLE SHAUGHNESSY.

Canadian-born Shaughnessy is a London-based comedian who is extremely compelling and very funny on stage. She has appeared at many UK comedy clubs and her solo show Be Your Own Daddy, directed by Adam Hills was performed to wide acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022.

I have seen Shaughnessy live on stage for Mervyn Stutter’s Pick of The Fringe at the Edinburgh Festival in 2022 and delivering her work in progress show, Pointless at the Leicester Comedy Festival in 2023.

In this episode, I talk to the wonderful comedian, PAUL MERRYCK.

The Essex based character comedian is shameless, ineffective and unethical on stage delivering a hysterical collection of short stories and jokes about the mishaps of his life. Merryck is a regular on the London and South-East comedy circuit and comperes a monthly night at ACanteen in Chelmsford. He is also a regular at Fringe Festivals, including performing at the Edinburgh Fringe every year since 2016, and Hastings Comedy Festival since 2018.

I have seen Merryck live on stage for Angel Comedy at The Bill Murray pub in Islington, London in 2023, and a guest on The Late Show at The Hastings Comedy Festival in 2024.

In this episode, I talk to the fantastic comedian, HUW THOMAS.

I have spent many a happy comedy night from 1992 to 1997, watching legendary resident compere Thomas at the Downstairs at The Kings Head Comedy Club in Crouch End, London. The club was co-founded in 1981 by Peter Grahame and Thomas, who was forced to retire in 2002, after twenty years, due to health problems. During his glorious time at the club, he would perform his off-the-wall comedy routines (including infamous animal impressions) to delighted audiences.
