Oh hello my people, welcome back.

My guest today is none other than Scottish person, comedian and friend of the show Daniel

Sloss.

He was playing a new castle at the stand and stopped by for a quick tea and a socially

distance podcast on his way down.

This is the first in-person podcast I've done in seven months and it felt so much better.

I'm happy, I record over Skype, I will keep the show ticking over.

But fuck me, it's so much better to actually be in a room with someone talking like normal

humans.

Daniel had a bit of a tough year.

He's had unbelievable success over the last 18 months, last two years or so and that all

kind of came crashing down when the world stopped and weirdly enough I went for lunch with

him in March just before all of this happened.

And the six month period in between then and now has been a rollercoaster of emotions,

including him starting therapy, beginning meditating, suffering quite a lot with some

ego depletion and depression and a bunch of other things.

This is a very different Daniel to the one that I sat down with 18 months ago when I first

met him.

But I actually think it's very much for the benefit of his well-being long term.

And hopefully a lot of the things that he talks about today will resonate with you.

If someone who has millions of adoring fans all over the world can struggle when a global

pandemic it's kind of reassuring for the normies amongst us, right?
