I've said jokes where I thought people might get up and hit me for this. A couple of people have thought about it. But they didn't. It gives you a lot of power, because if you're on shows where people are worried about getting sacked and you're not, then you're transcendent because you say what other people would like to say.
- Health
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I went through a brief phase years ago of getting Men's Health then I realised there are actually only three ways to do a sit-up and they're just repackaging it endlessly.
- Comic
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I read tons of comic books. My favourite is Grant Morrison, a Scottish comic writer.
- Cinema
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I absolutely loathe adverts. I won't go into the cinema until 20 minutes after the film is due to start because there are so many.
- Looking
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The Internet shows me how limited my interests are - there's everything out there and I'm still looking at what the weather's going to be like in Scotland.
- Comedians
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've never felt any sense of kinship with other comedians; they've always seemed too needy.
- Friends
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have some friends who are comedians but not many.
- Believe
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't believe I'm a recovering alcoholic - I'm someone who used to drink. AA comes from a religious movement and that whole thing of 'I'm always burdened with this' and the original sin idea. It's not like that for me.
- Feel
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just want to do something that I feel makes a difference.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love the BBC and I think it's a really important thing.
- Joke
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The average British person would hear me doing my joke about Rebecca Adlington and realise there's no malice in it. It was an off-the-cuff ad lib.
- Heritage
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
British people have a really sophisticated sense of humour, because we're exposed to much more than Europeans and Americans, not least in our literary heritage.
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not cynical at all.
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
That's what I do in my stand-up. I work hard and hone the material and after a while audiences expect what I do to be good.
- Important
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think the most important things my book does is to give readers the address of George Monbiot's website and how to get hold of comic books by Grant Morrison.
- Back
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've been studying Israeli army martial arts. I now know 16 ways to kick a Palestinian woman in the back.
- Cake
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
People think that the Middle East is very complex but I have an analogy that sums it up quite well. If you imagine that Palestine is a big cake, well... that cake is being punched to pieces by a very angry Jew.
- Nobody
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The thing that nobody really said about Rebecca Adlington is that she looks pretty weird. She looks like someone who's looking at themselves in the back of a spoon.
- Female
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
How hard is it to get female panellists?
- Friendly
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I did a ski festival in Austria once. I was struck by how friendly Austrians were, before gradually realising it's more that Glaswegians are awful.
- Nov 07, 2020
There's still a lot of racism in stand-up.
- Culture
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Supporting Celtic, waving a tricolour because your parents are Irish - that's a valid culture.
- Culture
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Supporting Rangers, being in an Orange Lodge, that whole life - that's a valid culture.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In a lot of farther-flung places in Scotland people are guarded at first, but as soon as they get to know you they really hate you.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you're an activist trying to do something important, I salute you. Most of us just give ourselves ethical brownie points for watching Channel 2 instead of Channel 3, like characters in a broad dystopian satire.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's always easier to dismiss other people than to go through the awkward and time consuming process of understanding them.
- Commonly
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm actually all for political correctness. If you want to work to change the usage of a word that's discriminatory then fine, I'm behind you. But that's a conversation that needs to be had in the culture. You can't just decide that commonly used parts of a language are evil and that the people who didn't get the memo must be bad people.
- Government
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Of course, it's hard to get interested in the whole idea of government. Nothing ever changes, especially people saying 'nothing ever changes,' despite the fact their kid now has a free nursery place and their aunt was forced to work despite having dementia.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There are a lot of problems with democracy. We need to think about how to find the people most qualified for the job.
- Community
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Your ruling class don't care about what happens to you. What seems like some enormous upset in your community is undetectable from a helicopter or a speeding motorcade. They are pitiless.
- Map
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Remember, taboos are just a map of what a society feels it's acceptable to be neurotic about. Taboos aren't rational.
- Laugh
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have no real enemies in comedy, but there are a couple of people who I'd laugh about if I heard that their legs had fallen off.
- Funny
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Doug Stanhope is great - I saw his 'Burning the Bridge to Nowhere' show and it was inspiring. He's like an anti-shaman, taking the sting out of a bunch of things we've chosen to give a symbolic power to. I've made it sound noble and worthy there, it's not, it's really funny.
