    In our opening episode Stephen catches up with Reginald D Hunter, a stalwart of the international comedy scene who’ll be telling us about a hairy encounter with some civil war reenactors. Also joining him is modern day raconteur Tom Allen, a regular on UK comedy radio and TV shows and the host of Bake Off: The Professionals.

    We’ll be closing the show with some rather robotic music from Australian performer Alice Fraser.

Decent Show!

This is a very enjoyable set of interviews with a good selection of the world's comedians from various backgrounds. There is a fair amount of swearing in some of the episodes if that bothers you but the varied ways that people found themselves doing comedy is genuinely interesting. At some points the interviews actually get quite serious covering issues like feminism and equality but it never gets too heavy and it all makes for some good "fringe" easy listening. Stephen Amos is a good host and clearly knows how to get the best of his guests, not that any of them were exactly shy!
