Join comedian Chris Brooker as he talks to his friends and colleagues from the worlds of comedy, music and entertainment about their 'chicken wire' gigs. The shows where they wished they'd never picked up the phone or answered that email.
Mat Ricardo is suave, sophisticated and skilful beyond belief. This dashing chap has wowed audiences from the streets of Camden to all across the globe. In an especially brilliant episode hear about Poll tax riots, assault with a deadly weapon and a trip to China that certainly didn't pan out in the manner it was supposed to. Jaw droppingly astounding and gut bustingly hilarious, much like Mr Ricardo on stage. Essential listening. -

Allyson June Smith lives and works in the UK but broke into the comedy business in her home and native land of Canada.

This charming, fast-talking Dubliner shares his experiences from his time behind the mic as a comic as well as a few from his old side hustle as announced for London Irish rugby club. Imposter syndrome, how it feels to die on stage and more besides. -
