Episode Details

Steve Otis Gunn interviews himself about his own Edinburgh Fringe show — and gets considerably more honest than expected.

In this solo episode, Steve turns the microphone on himself to explore the inspirations behind his debut Fringe show, Steve Otis Gunn is Uncomfortable — tracing the origins of his comedic voice, the personal experiences that shaped it, and why awkwardness turned out to be the richest material available.

• The 1991 moment that started everything — realising he didn't quite know what to do with his arms
• What the long gap between a comic idea and a finished hour of stand-up actually looks like from the inside
• Why awkwardness, when examined properly, turns out to contain everything worth saying
• What performing autobiographical material reveals about yourself that the writing doesn't prepare you for
