Are there any words more guaranteed to strike terror into people's hearts than climate comedy?

Well, I thought so, and then I took my show Spoilers to the Edinburgh Festival and everyone bloody loved it,

including Brian Eno, if you can believe that. You can see it at the Soho Theatre from the 29th of

November for four nights get your tickets at Stuart goalsmith.com.

This is a podcastians, Comedian Podcast.

Hello and welcome to the show, I'm Stuart Goldsmith and today I am pinging off the walls with excitement to bring you a special double episode.

First one today, next one tomorrow. The first with Andy Nyman and the second with Jeremy Dyson,

who you will know as the invisible fourth member of the League of

Gentlemen. Now Andy you might know as an actor from campus you might know him

from Dead Set you might know him from a variety of things you might if you are magically inclined you might know him as the silent partner

behind what behind adjacent to but in the curtains next to Darren Brown.

So we're going to talk about some of those things.

This is in celebration of the release of their new movie Ghost Stories, which I have seen, and it is excellent.

So we're going to be talking to both of these gentlemen today and tomorrow about the connections,

the deep physical and rhythmic connections between performative and narrative comedy and

performative and narrative horror. So it's a bit of a genre-bending one. I think this comedy and

it's a bit of a genre-bending one.

and it's also I hope serves to wet your appetite for the movie

which is released any day now.

So please, without further ado, enjoy this conversation with the wonderful Andy Nyman.

Thanks for joining us. I'm delighted to join you though I feel like a total Charlotte thing because I'm not a comedian. Well you say that. I mean we will start

with ghost stories which I watched a screen
