Description

Stuart Mitchell started comedy by attending a comedy course while he worked in banking.


It's clear from this episode, that hard work and creating a process is how he has managed to become so successful in what is an extremely cutthroat industry.


He is the longest serving panelist on the hit show 'Breaking the News' on BBC Scotland and also has a new radio series 'Stuart Mitchell Cost of Living' which will air on BBC Radio 4 on the 25th of Feb 2024.


In this episode, Stuart talks all about:


  • Getting into comedy
  • Investing in comedy for his own development
  • Discipline when working - recording himself, listening back and making changes
  • Lessons from comedy in America
  • Working on a panel show
  • Testing new material
  • All about the 'left turn'
  • Challenging environments
  • Working with commercial clients
  • Dealing with nerves and mental strength
  • Dealing with difficulties


It was great to meet Stuart and hear his amazing insights into the world of comedy and his work that he does with CEOs and the corporate world to help create engagement with audiences by adding humour.
