S1 Ep22 'Born Again' | Open Mic Legend Darren Maskell Tribute Episode
Manage episode 416695267 series 3526532
Hello Believers.
Today's conversation is with the late, great UK comic Darren Maskell.
Darren sadly passed away earlier this year and was a much loved presence on the UK open-mic scene with his unique brand of kitchen sink absurdism and bedazzling fishmongery.
In the chat, Darren talks about growing up in Croydon, dealing with fish and the general public, his trademark coat hanger routine, anxiety, AI film posters, zombies, True Detective, the documentary film he made about the South East England comedy scene and we talk a bit about X Files Season 1 Episode 22 'Born Again'.
More info below on an upcoming tribute show and launch of the all new Maskell Awards.

It's an X Files podcast... sort of. See you out there.
