Todays guest is the remarkable, Benjamin Bankole Bello. He is the creator of President Obonjo, one of the best comedy characters in the UK comedy scene. He is a Malcolm Hardee Award Winner 2019 and has been gigging across the UK comedy scene for over a decade.
This episode looks at his journey in Nigeria under dictators lead to President Obonjo, how comedians who are change agents have thrived during the pandemic, how your mental state maybe just as important as your skill in comedy and How getting on the Live at the Apollo does not define you and your success in comedy. This is a great episode for people to see if they have the chops for comedy, struggling and need to reassess.
