Welcome to episode ten of "Kidding," where I had the privilege of interviewing the incredible comedian, Logan Murray. Logan, who is also one half of the infamous '90s double act 'Bib and Bob' with Jerry Sadowitz, has had a glittering showbiz career that will leave you in awe.From their West End run at the Criterion Theatre, where the police were called twice and critics hailed it as the best bad taste show ever, to Logan was the voice behind 'The Beano's Dennis the Menace and Gnasher TV Show.' He also played the character Ronnie Rigsby.
We dive deep into Logan's forty year journey in comedy, starting in alternative cabaret and transitioning into traditional stand-up comedy. He shares the challenges and rewards of the early days of stand-up, emphasizing that comedy is an individual art that requires the right attitude.
We also discuss the importance of learning from bad gigs and the value of structured comedy. Logan opens up about the wild times at the early Edinburgh Fringe and the significance of saying yes to every opportunity that comes your way.
We delve into Logan's role as a comedy tutor and the immense impact he has had on the comedy scene. His course, London Stands Up, is renowned for nurturing and shaping the careers of comedians such as Greg Greg Davies, Josh Widdicombe, Rhod Gilbert, and we explore the creativity that comes from play and the power of embracing one's comedic voice.
