Des Bishop is a stand up comedian, podcaster, writer and author. His new comedy special, ‘Of All People' Is now out on 800 Pound Gorilla Media (links below) . Of All People is an hour of original stand-up and a culmination of years of experience on stage all over including in Queens, Ireland, and China. Bishop crafts high-energy stories and jokes, bringing the audience on a wildly entertaining ride through tales of his international travels and the gap between his looks and attitude. The openness and honesty of his presenting style combined with his restless imagination and perceptive observations make Des Bishop a must-see for fans of unique, insightful and provocative comedy. Now a massive star in Ireland, native New Yorker, Des moved from Queens to Ireland in his mid-teens in 1990. He first came to prominence with his extraordinary TV series The Des Bishop Work Experience (2004), where he lived on minimum wage in a series of different jobs in Ireland. Mixing this documentary footage with stand-up, the series became one of the most talked-about of the year, and propelled Des into national stardom. In 2006, he embarked on his second critically acclaimed TV series, Joy In The Hood, where he taught stand-up comedy in disadvantaged areas in four major Irish cities. Another hugely successful live tour followed including invitations to the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and the Melbourne Comedy Festival in Australia. In 2007/8 Des embarked on his most ambitious and challenging TV programme to date: he decided to learn Irish from scratch and perform a 60 minute stand-up comedy routine in the Irish language. Over the course of 12 months, he lived with a family in the West Of Ireland honing his craft and in March 2008, the first episode of In The Name Of The Fada was broadcast. In The Name Of The Fada has prompted a radical re-think about how to teach Irish in schools and it unsurprisingly won the Irish Film and Television Award (IFTA) for Best Television Series later that year. In 2010, Des put together his most personal show to date called My Dad Was Nearly James Bond. Inspired by his father, Mike who was diagnosed with terminal cancer; Des documented the remarkable life of an actor and model who gave up the glamour for a steady job in a department store when his three sons were born. Des also wrote a memoir by the same name, which was short-listed for an Irish Book Of The Year Award. The My Dad Was Nearly James Bond live show previewed in Melbourne, before opening at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to widespread acclaim and five star reviews including Brian Logan of The Guardian who called it “a coup de théâtre…compelling…like diamonds, this show is forever”. The show toured extensively both nationally and internationally in 2010/11 including The Barrow Street Theatre in New York. In 2013 Des travelled to Beijing, China to learn Mandarin and he has been living there for the past 18 months. He is now fluent and the show, Breaking China was another major hit for broadcaster RTE in 2014 and he also made a half hour radio documentary about the rise of Stand Up in China for the BBC World Service called “Stand up for China”. His live show again opened at the Edinburgh Festival where he played to over 5,000 people and included an invitation to perform at the Soho Theatre in London and a return to Barrow Street in New York. Des has appeared on many live stand up shows including Edinburgh Comedy Festival Live (BBC), Live at the Comedy Store (Comedy Central) and Australian music themed quiz show Spicks and Specks (ABC). He was also the star of HBO's “A Comic's Climb” about his debut at the Aspen Comedy festival in 2005. In total, Des has released five bestselling stand-up DVDs: Des Bishop Live at Vicar Street (2004); Des Bishop Live (2005); Des Bishop – Fitting In (2006); Des Bishop – Tongues (2007); and Desfunctional (2009). His special, “Made in China” was released by Universal Pictures in November 2015. His special One Day You'll Understand was released in November 2018 on the RTE Player. The openness and honesty of his presenting style combined with his restless imagination and perceptive comic observations make Des Bishop a must-see for fans of unique, insightful and provocative comedy. We chat about his new comedy special, moving in his teens to boarding school in Ireland, grief and loss of his father, ‘crazy' reviews, imposter syndrome, becoming the parent to your parents, rehab, addiction in his teens, finding his voice, plus plenty more. The video footage of this entire chat is now out as well (one day after release)!

The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there's that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.Andrea (Andy) Smith Peek is a comedy writer/director/producer/actor/donut eater/lover of cheese/improv artiste/sketch enthusiast/human being trying to survive never-ending existential dread. This may explain why she writes dark sci-fi comedies and why she is eating a donut as she writes this. Andy studied writing and film at Vancouver Film School, Writing for TV at UCLA's Professional Program, Film Production at UCLA's Summer Program, and studied improv and sketch with The Second City Conservatory, UCB, and The Groundlings. She has performed at Canada's Just For Laughs Festival and won a Telus Storyhive grant to produce and direct her short film Married & Isolated, as well as the pilot of her web series See Through Daddy. Her new content creation outlet is character comedy on TikTok: @AndysCharacters. On Dec 10 2018 she won the showcase showdown on The Price is Right, no joke! She worked as an assistant on A&E's Ruby Laundry Series and as a script/clearances coordinator on Netflix's Emmy-nominated MAID. She currently lives in Victoria, BC and working as a drama teacher for middle school students who make her laugh every day!

'80s Movie Montage

With special guest Andy Smith Peek, Anna and Derek chat about how Lesley Ann Warren could be mistaken for Susan Sarandon, why kissing corpses makes for great comedy and much more during their discussion of the timeless whodunit farce Clue (1985). Connect with '80s Movie Montage on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram! It's the same handle for all three... @80smontagepod.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/80sMontagePodTwitter: https://twitter.com/80sMontagePodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/80smontagepod/Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there's that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.Andrea (Andy) Smith Peek is a comedy writer/director/producer/actor/donut eater/lover of cheese/improv artiste/sketch enthusiast/human being trying to survive neverending existential dread. This may explain why she processes the pain by writing dark sci-fi themed comedy. Andy studied writing and film at Vancouver Film School, Writing for TV at UCLA's Professional Program, Film Production at UCLA's Summer Program, and studied improv and sketch with The Second City Conservatory, UCB and The Groundlings. She has performed at Canada's Just For Laughs Festival, and won a Telus Storyhive grant to produce and direct her short film Married & Isolated, and also the pilot of her web series See Through Daddy. Her new content creation outlet is character comedy on TikTok: @AndysCharacters. On Dec 10 2018 she won the showcase showdown on The Price is Right, no joke! She worked as an assistant on A&E's Ruby Laundry Series and as a script/clearances coordinator on Netflix's Emmy-nominated MAID. She currently lives in Victoria, BC, but will be back in LA in 2023 to write and perform on the Groundlings stage in their writer's lab program.
