Barry Ferns from Barry's economics joins Alexei Sayle and Talal Karkouti for a chat about his journey from homelessness to owning London's best comedy club, Angel Comedy, and teaches us things he learned along the way.

Massive thank you to Barry and his team for hosting us, filming and even editing this podcast! Talal's been travelling a lot for work lately and this wouldn't have been possible without Barry's superb team. They filmed us with three cameras so if there was ever a time to join the Patreon and watch the full video episode, it's now! Click here to join now! Check out Barry's Economics on YouTube, learn the truth about money and stop getting your financial advice from rich w@nkers who don't give a hoot about you!
