About this episode
<p>Joe Lycett is one of Britain's most loved comedians affecting change through his comedy in the most brilliant and beautiful ways. Not one to shy away from the bigger issues at play, Joe invites people to think, and actively questions about the systems we live in. After the death of his friend who died in lockdown, a change which has had a huge impact on Joe’s life, his mockery of the official inquiry into party gate by tweeting a fake Sue Grey report made headlines. Even the Government was concerned there was a serious leak! And, as you will hear, a chance meeting with Conservative MP Nadine Dorries at the BAFTAs went really well!</p><br><p>Joe is also an artist, pansexual and openly addresses LGBTQ+ issues in his work. His current UK tour <em>More More More! How Do You Lycett? How Do You Lycett? </em>does just that and has a big reveal which Joe has been working on for years, a show which confirms just how possible it is to change communities for the better. </p><br><p>We love Joe. This episode will show you the changes that fuelled his life today, why he does what he does and the changes he still wants. </p><p>You can find ticket details to Joe’s tour here:</p><p><a href="https://joelycett.com/Comedy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://joelycett.com/Comedy</a></p><p>You can find Joe’s tweeted fake Sue Grey Report here:</p><p><a href="https://bit.ly/3PfCPQf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/3PfCPQf</a></p><br><p>BIG NEWS!
