EP.226 - SAM CAMPBELL

Adam talks with Australian comedian Sam Campbell as they walk around The Latitude Festival and get to know each other. Topics include whether it's OK for a Brit to do an Aussie accent, Sam's upbringing in Queensland, Adam's hat, the rules of stand-up comedy, whether AI is good at writing plays, why Kasabian chose their name, ear injuries, why painting sheep pink is the kind of thing conservatives do and creative angst. But mainly Sam makes Adam laugh.

This conversation was recorded face-to-face on 26th and 27th July, 2024

Thanks to Séamus Murphy-Mitchell for production support and conversation editing and to Latitude Festival and everyone we met there for their generosity and help.
