July 2nd at The Bell was a fun show and Anoop Singh Kung kicked things off with the romance of marriage and the c***y twos. It was then over to Roy Michael and the homophobic, antisemitic problems caused by phones. We then had Mo Khan, who is doing his best to stand out from the I billion others with his name. After Mo was Marc Cohen, who may be Mr Burns’ stunt double. Next was Faris Firoozye, who did his bit for the Australian tourist board. After fares was Richard Stainbank, who had us all wondering why more don’t die due to urethra wasps. Megan O’Brien then explained why if she had a mixed race baby it’d be called Terry before Keith Mendes (pictured) closed the first half with a life saving tale that had us all questioning whether he’s in the right job.
After the break, and a little spirit reading, Marcos Brito kicked things off with the rhythmic slap of going commando. Next was Oliver Wright and the lottery win of linguistic love and loquacious living. Next was Kat Hennessy, who really respects Keir Starmer’s ethical freebie policy. After Kat was Tony Carr and how much a porn star could earn back in the 70’s. Atle Fretheim then confessed to having put a lot of cultural faith in the paperclip before Charlie Firth talked about his outreach work rehabilitating Brummie accents. The evening’s penultimate act was Elena Cotton and why even in a queue to leave the planet, JK Rowling can’t look cool. Closing the show was Mac O’Donnell, a man who’s soon to return to Australia where he’ll be in great demand by their police force as an interrogator.
