Rob Brydon: Rejection, manifesting success & meeting Steve Coogan

Rob Brydon has done pretty much everything you can. From radio DJ & Voice over artists, hosting one of the UKs most loved panel shows to being the star of Gavin & Stacey and acting alongside Margot Robbie in smash-hit Barbie.

Rob is a comic that has never lacked ambition, but his success came later in life, during one of his darkest personal moments.

In this episode, James O'Brien goes back in time to Rob's school days, charting his self-taping and repeated rejection from acting agents and discovering how he teamed up with Steve Coogan to finally land his big break.
