Episode Details

Alan Davies returns with his most personal and powerful stand-up yet, “Think Ahead” — a decade in the making and hailed as his best work. Blending raw vulnerability with razor-sharp humor, he shares stories from his past that once felt too private for public consumption, now resonating deeply with audiences who’ve walked similar paths. After a triumphant Edinburgh debut and sold-out tours across the UK and Australia, Davies is bringing his cathartic comedy to New Zealand and back home, where fans greet him with warmth and authenticity — often sharing their own struggles in quiet moments after shows. Rooted in his decades-long career, including his iconic QI appearances and a master’s in creative writing, this show reveals how laughter became his lifeline — especially after losing his mother — and how confronting his father’s legacy led him to write “Just Ignore Him.” Audiences aren’t just laughing; they’re listening — proof that storytelling, powered by humor, still brings us together.
