In the second "You Interview Stu", we talk about how newer comic Joseph Emslie might cover the emotionally-charged topic of his father's death in his comedy. We discuss avoiding cliche and remaining specific in your observations, and how to lead an audience gently into difficult territory.
Joseph Emslie began performing stand up in 2016. Performing regularly on the London circuit, his "anecdotal and self deprecating style of comedy" earned him a place in the final of Amused Moose Comedy’s NATIONAL NEW COMIC Award 2017. He produces the 'Parsons & Emslie Talk Comedy' podcast. www.josephemslie.com
