Who doesn't love a complete disastrous bombing on stage?!?! Well... The performer!
As a comedian, I've had good gigs and bad gigs but the good gigs don't make a funny story. The diabolical ones do! In this podcast, I will chat with several performers and have a laugh about some of their worst gigs and discuss the performer's mental ability to recover and carry on

Something lovely happened recently, I had some performers get in touch with me to share their experience and Broden Tadros was one of them.
