麻豆约拍

Joz Norris doesn鈥檛 do small talk, but he鈥檚 moving home, so attending lots of flat-viewings and finding himself repeatedly having to chat with strangers.

Desperately, even by his own standards, he鈥檚 just answered the question, 鈥淲hat do you do in your spare time?鈥� with 鈥淚 went to a Van Morrison gig in 2016鈥� but it wasn鈥檛 very good鈥︹�� He remains mortified by just how hard he finds forcing himself to deal with new people.

In this comedy special, he unpacks why small talk is so utterly, existentially, horrible and invites you to 30 minutes inside Joz鈥檚 head 鈥� it鈥檚 a bit of a squeeze, but an intelligent, creative and rather noisy place!

Like his live shows, this half-hour special anchors itself around autobiographical moments, and incorporates some of his funniest, stupidest and most imaginative routines constructed into a narrative about loss, recovery and how small talk has ruined his life.

No Van Morrisons were harmed in the making of this programme.
