Hello, Stue here. This isn't an ad. This is me telling you that you have got to get hold of a copy of Adam Blooms book, Finding Your Comic Genius. It's just so great, and I want everyone to buy it for everyone else for Christmas. We discuss it in detail on episode 437 and at the time of recording this it has 66 5-star reviews out of 66 reviews on Amazon.

So go and find Adam Bloom's book, Repeat. This is not an ad and I'm not

being remunerated. Or remunerated. I can never get that right.

Attention at all passengers. You can now book your train tickets on Uber and get 10% back in Uber credits to spend on your next train journey.

Hello and welcome to the show, I'm Stuart Goldsmith and this is the lovely very warm and

very happy without being annoyingly happy it's very special quality amongst

comedians this is the wonderful steam rascopolis this was recorded non-live in my flat at the Edinburgh Fringe 2014 and during

this recording you might hear Steen receiving a text which was his producer Rebecca Austin

telling him to meet her outside after the interview because she had big news

and that news was that Steen had just been nominated for the Edinburgh comedy Newcomer Award.

Called it, here is Steen Raskoponis. Steen, thank you for coming.

I appreciate you coming in.

We've barely met before, and it's really kind of you to come and do this with no idea of who I am or what the

hell you do. Yeah, especially when we're recording in your bedroom. Don't tell them.

This is very professional set up here. It is as ever an absolute Mickey Mouse operation but

at least we're not in a cave which I believe is the same cave in which brilliant

comedy director Paul Byrne contracted Scarlet Fever some years ago.
