00:00So, let's just start clapping again, all right?
00:11I think that it's very difficult to explain to people from the outside.
00:16Like, when I had to do the stand-up coming out to my parents, that was fun.
00:21Having to explain to them what it is was very weird.
00:24Like, oh, we go to these rooms and you make strangers laugh.
00:27It's my form of self-expression and I find it extremely, like, cathartic.
00:33If I measured how well I was doing by how much I was getting paid,
00:37I would have given up ages ago.
00:40Things that have happened, things that I've done, undiagnosed ADHD
00:43and various things have created quite a lot of content.
00:48I'm lucky in the sense that I've had a ridiculous life.
00:53I have always wanted to make people laugh.
00:56They're always fun and I've loved all, like, the funny women stuff.
01:00And Red Hot Llama was born in the queer comedy club in London.
01:03That's where they're responsible for me.
01:06To anyone that might be watching it who wants to have a go at it,
01:09I'd just say absolutely do it, you know?
01:10Whether you do it via a course, whether you do it via an open mic.
01:13I'm very glad I did it.
01:14I wish I'd maybe done it a bit earlier in my life.
01:16If you've got any inkling of wanting to do it, I'd say do it as soon as you can.
01:19Look at the comedians, they're over there.
01:22They don't have anything else in their lives.
01:25It's all they have.
01:27It's easy to get, like, caught in comparison with other people.
01:30Sometimes you're like, this is kind of worth it, do you know what I mean?
01:33If you've got an ink really bummed, it's going to kill you.
01:35There's that itching thing in the back of your mind of that really big laugh that you've got once.
01:41Even though Con's got to be chasing about.
01:43The writing joke is hard, so laugh, have a good time, life's short, enjoy another job.
01:49Thank you so much. Merry Christmas to the movie.
01:54Merry Christmas, everybody!
02:02Yeah.
02:03Yeah? Okay.
02:04I mean, of course it's going to get to a festival.
02:06You're interviewing international superstars.
02:08Like, why would this not make camp?
02:13I'll start with a little bit of a surprise.
