He wasn't the only one there -we caught up with two of the 'lesser' Irish acts for the podcast (4min video ...in short 'sure it's no problem, standup is just an entertainment fad, like foxy boxing or hate speech') youtu.be/wx-MWAYNpG4

Why is my comedy crap? SIRI has the answer #irishsciencefiction

Brian Sexton @irishscifi.bsky.social · 8d

Inadvertent comedy gold ...pure perfection: Counterculture on prime time, a polite elderly audience, and a snooty presenter trying to keep it together. 30 years ago too🤪-history repeating itself. Like they say in Germany: Plus ca change! 🤖 www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBYq...
