Today, we’re walking in glorious Regent’s Park with the wonderful comedian Stuart Goldsmith. As well as having an incredibly successful and critically-acclaimed career as a stand-up, Stuart is pretty much the OG of podcasting - he started his podcast The Comedian’s Comedian in 2012. Today - we’re turning the interview tables on him!Stuart and his family are based in Bristol - and he doesn’t have a dog, and is - in fact - allergic to dogs! However, we’re pretty convinced that once Stuart’s kids take a look at Raymond they’re going to have to convince him to get one. Stuart tells us about his rather fabulous career progression - from court jester to street performer to stand-up - Stuart really knows everything about comedy. In this chat, he shares some of what he’s learned from interviewing over 500 comedians on his podcast. Follow @stuartgoldsmithcomedy on InstagramYou can read all about Stuart’s work and keep up to date with his upcoming live dates at https://www.stuartgoldsmith.com/ Watch Stuart’s recent appearance on Live At The Apollo here!You can listen to The Comedian’s Comedian on all podcast platforms! Follow Emily: Instagram - @emilyrebeccadeanX - @divine_miss_emWalking The Dog is produced by Faye LawrenceMusic: Rich Jarman Artwork: Alice LudlamPhotography: Karla Gowlett
