Thanks to Genghis Khan's friskiness we're all 8% barbarian, but were we ever that civilised in the first place? A pretty sobering thought as you play on your iPhone whilst sipping a skinny mocha-latte. Big questions require big answers, and so long as you don't equate big with accurate, you're in for a treat! 'A sharp and crafty gagsmith with witty obtuse takes on an impressively wide range of topics bringing flair and confidence to them all.' (Chortle.co.uk). 'Wonderfully improvised riffs showcasing his impressive spontaneity and sharp tongue.' (Edinburgh Festivals Magazine). 'Highly promising. An accomplished comic.' (Time Out).
