Goldsmith has a natural ability to get into the details of how these comedians think about their work and what makes them tick. It serves as a great resource for up-and-coming comedians as well as a way for listeners to discover their new favorite acts.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is Goldsmith's skill as an interviewer. He does his research and asks insightful questions that delve deep into the comedian's process, influences, and path to success. This allows listeners to gain valuable insights into the world of comedy and learn something new with each episode. Whether you are familiar with the comedian being interviewed or not, there is always something interesting to take away from their stories.

    443 - Harriet DyerA whirlwind of wonderfully authentic absurdity, Harriet Dyer is a comic treasure. In this candid conversation, we discuss how she unexpectedly found her true calling, paving the way for “Trigger Warning”, a deeply powerful show rooted in the horrors committed against her and the lack of available help, which she nonetheless navigates with sensitivity, warmth and humour.We also talk about the addictive nature of comedy, its impact on personal happiness, and whether one can find contentment regardless of gig outcomes. As an advocate for mental health, Harriet opens up about her role in running "Barking Tales" and the impact of neurodiversity on her comedic authenticity.Go to www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders for ad-free episodes, extra content from every show that has it, and much more including a special video version of this exact episode (but don't know why I'm telling you that now!) - PLUS get exclusive Insiders Q&As AND the incredible “self-help for comedians” special with Amanda Connell.Catch Up with Harriet:IG: @harrietdyercomedywww.harrietdyer.com/Watch Trigger Warning for free right now!www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKczZtezGysEverything Stu's up to:Discover Stu's comedy about the climate crisis, for everyone from activists to CEOs, at www.stuartgoldsmith.com/climate“The funny side of climate change (no, really!)” - The TimesFind everything else you need at linktr.ee/stuartgoldsmithOr join the mailing list at:www.comedianscomedian.comStu also offers remote and in-person talks to business, distilling insights from over 400 comics on cultivating resilience and the ability to bounce back, to all levels from C-suite to team members.“There's perfect and there's perfect; and that was perfect.” David Cooper, Chief People Officer Circle Health Group Hosted on Acast.
