Season 5: Episode 10: Omid Djalili

This is why I LOVE DOING A PODCAST! I have never met Omid Djalili before and within the first few seconds, I found out he knew my Iranian grandfather very well and knows my family! What are the chances?

We cover everything in this episode – our favourite Iranian dishes, being pigeon holed as a Middle Eastern man, the comedy world and the fine line between being funny and being cancelled

Omid regales his childhood at a very well-known West London school and talks about meeting Mel Smith after a school production where Mel he told him he was funny, which in turn got him to think about a career in comedy.

Omid is currently on his Good Times Tour, tickets are available and I urge you to go see him live!
