Episode 16 - Jed Salisbury

Saison 1 · Épisode 16

lundi 31 août 2020 • Durée 55:11

In this episode Graeme chats with Hull based comic Jed Salisbury about how lockdown has had a significant impact on both his career and his mental health – examining the practical impact of the profession rather than the emotional highs and lows of performance. We also chat about his experiences of appearing on TV – he has previously appeared on the BBC’s “The Naked Truth” and also in the documentary mini-series “Who are you calling fat?”.

Jed’s lovely, this is a really nice chat and I recommend looking him up now that comedy is (finally) coming back.

Kat has recently joined the world of stand up and her infectious energy and optimism shine through in this conversation. Graeme and Kat talk about the need comics have to please and entertain, as well as her high levels of pre-show anxiety that often lead to physical sickness.

Episode 12 - Graeme Rayner plus bonus Q and A

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

lundi 3 août 2020 • Durée 01:10:38

In episode 12, we don't actually have a guest due to some scheduling issues. Rather than not put an episode out, Graeme has recorded a special episode. In the first half, he describes his route into comedy, his own mental health issues including his MH crisis, which was ten years ago this month. He then talks about how the two issues coexist and his aims for the future.

In the second half, Graeme answers questions (some serious, some frivolous, some debauched) from listeners, friends and peers in the industry.

Episode 11 - Paul Dennis

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

lundi 27 juillet 2020 • Durée 01:12:04

In Episode 11 Graeme chats with Paul Dennis, a comic who has been in the industry (on and off) for over 2 decades. Paul has had a recent diagnosis of ADHD, which (as a man in his 50s) has caused him to look back on past life events through a new lens. ADHD has, naturally had an impact on his mental health, and while he has not sought a diagnosis for anxiety or depression it's clear from this conversation these issues have become intrinsically linked.

Graeme and Paul chat about gigging in London, New York and Swansea, as well as the evolution of a parody song that was a throwaway idea almost 20 years ago that, when resurrected, became a mainstay of Paul's set that saw him win King Gong at London's Comedy Store in 2019.

Follow Paul on social media @thatpauldennis and visit his YouTube channel "Paul Dennis, Comedy Worker"

Finally, the parody song discussed towards the end of this episode can be heard here

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

lundi 20 juillet 2020 • Durée 45:07

In this episode, Graeme talks to SJ Cooke, a young open mic level comic who is at the start of his mental health treatment, having only recently sought help. SJ and Graeme started out in comedy at the same time, but their trajectories and experiences have been quite different, as have their lives during lockdown. We will check in again with SJ at some point soon to see how he is doing.
