Tim talks to multi-award winning comedian, actor, author and presenter, Russell Kane about his unusual journey into comedy, his voracious appetite for learning and how he challenges himself to create in the moment rather than overthink his constant stream of social media Kaneings. Russell discusses how a chance encounter with a girl "out of his world" at a rave changed his life forever, and how that turning point ultimately led him into the world of comedy.
