Kevin Bridges is in a league of his own as he blows the roof off the SSE Hydro in front of 12,000 fans with his brand-new show, A Whole Different Story. Recorded as part of his UK and Ireland tour and 16-night residency at Glasgow’s newest venue. Kevin is in explosive form as he mixes economic theory, art history and diet tips with the rigors of growing up and adapting to his new found place in the world. It is a comic masterpiece.

Sean's stand-up is a blend of a finely tuned hyperactive imagination, surreal imagery and insightful observations on the human condition...and Keep It Light is about Sean keeping the tone light and funny, as he talks about the price of cinema food, accusations of him having a midlife crisis, his behaviour on the Internet and jewellery heists.

Story
David Mitchell’s 2014 best seller Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse must really have made people think - because everything’s got worse. We’ve gone from UKIP surge to Brexit shambles, from horsemeat in lasagne to Donald Trump in the White House, from Woolworths going under to all the other shops going under. It’s probably socially irresponsible even to try to cheer up.

Great for attention seekers!
I listened to this while I was on a treadmill in the gym. A friend told me afterwards that people had been watching at me because my facial expressions and inability to control my laughter made be look and sound like some kind of maniac!

superb. well worth a listen
Daire is one of my favourite Irish comedians and his 'Live At the Theatre Royal' doesn't dissapoint. Worth downloading just for the anecdote about the train museum in Bolton. Classic O'Briain at his best.

My Favorite Irish Comedian
Actually, my favorite comedian, edging out Steven Wright, the previous title holder. His routine here is among his best, and it will be the rare audiobook that I'll listen to repeatedly.
It doesn't hurt that Dara is a skeptic, grounded in reality. His back and forth with the audience and sharp observations about culture are noteworthy. The only two drawbacks are that, as an American, there are some references that I just don't get, and that I may never get to see him in person. Every possible thumb up.
