JAMES BARR: Taking on Piers Morgan, hate online, and living through domestic abuse
Description
James Barr's weekly schedule definitely justifies his occasional need for an afternoon nap. Kicking off the morning on Hits Radio Breakfast, to late evening stand-up gigs, it's impressive he has the stamina for writing, podcasting, the occasional appearance on Piers Morgan, and (in his words) 'sleeping around'. James is currently working on a new show, where he candidly opens up about his experience with domestic abuse. A shocking and important commentary on a sadly all to common experience, particularly in LGBTQ+ relationships, James invites us to find the funny, as he aims to open discussion and heal through laughter. James is no stranger to hate online and discusses how he 'sometimes finds it scary to leave the house'. But it's clear it won't stop him from taking a seat at the table, and ultimately, the hate comments prove to be comedy gold.
