Josh Widdicombe is one of Britain’s top comedy stars. But you wouldn’t know it to listen to him!

After all, this was never part of the plan. Unlike virtually all guests on the Balance podcast so far, Josh didn’t pursue a childhood dream or have laser-like focus for success. Rather, it all just sort of happened.

You can catch the great man on tour (and you must – he’s incredible). Buy a ticket at JoshWiddicombe.com
