Tom Davis On Success, Setbacks & Being a Dad

Описание: Comedian and actor Tom Davis joins Romesh for a proper deep dive into comedy, his working-class roots to his success and building his career long term.

They talk about Tom’s route into stand-up, creating and starring in Murder in Successville and King Gary, and what it takes to survive rejection, hyper-criticism and projects going wrong. There’s rare praise from Romesh, chaos behind the production scenes, doing his own stunts, pranks, and a BIG announcement. Plus an ever important question from Shanthi.

They also get into luck in the industry, being a dad, and how success changes your perspective over time.

A Ranga Bee Production in partnership with Listen.
