You

Hello and welcome to the show Stu Goldsmith here

This is the comedians comedian podcast and today we are talking to someone who is by his own description very fulfilled as an

Unfulfilled comedian the hilarious Alistair Barry

We are going to talk about his forthcoming tour

Woken progress, which did very very well at the end of the festival and let me remind you while I remember that you can find out dates and ticket links and so on at

Alistair Barry dot com. He's an Alistair not an Alistair or even an Alistair

He's an Alistair, but if you're going to go and look at something about him presumably you've got the internet and Google is your friend

And you can also find his food blog at foodponds dot com that we didn't talk much about that instead

We talked about not only his tour, but also his anger his

His relationship with humility. Let's say we'll talk about his public school upbringing and the abandonment issues that went on to forge his resilience

We are I don't want we don't get too deeply into the abandonment stuff equally

I don't want to treat it too lightly

But this is not the first stand-up comedian who has been on this podcast who was sent away to boarding school and

Whose life it profoundly affected. Can we all stop doing that?

Please unless we want really good comedians in which case carry on
