Hello, welcome to CLOGG-CAST! As I can’t currently run my alternative comedy night called ‘CLOGG Comedy’ and as we all have to be indoors, I have started a mini podcast series. The plan is to have a section of myself geeking out about a ‘niche’ comedy topic followed by an interview with a comedian who is unique and whom the audience should watch!

CLOGG essentially means comedians laughter LOGG. It aimed to be a welcoming space open to acts to practice their highest level of comedy. I hope that it acted as a network for acts to join the forces of stand-up, musical, sketch and character comedy. As well as a safe space for performers to explore many topics and styles of comedy craziness.

Today’s ‘Niche to meet you, to meet you niche’ topic is:
Kids in the Hall

Our special guest is character, musical and sketch maverick Dave Bibby. Recently notable for Crazy Cat Lad-Y and Lead Pencil. 

WINNER: Musical Comedy Awards Audience Favourite 2018
