I have about 30 seconds to a minute to get my first big laugh.
So humbling, man. 15 people and no one's laughing. It is brutal. So I came on stage and I was like, I'm I might just quit this thing, you know.
When it's going really well, give yourself 10 seconds to enjoy that moment. Because that's what you do it for. You will benefit off that for so long. That was the distinctive voice of comedian and triple BAFTA award winner Mo Gilligan, who joins us today on high performance. I'm Jay Comfrey, and alongside Damien Hughes, who you'll hear from in about three seconds, we explore the minds and experiences of some of the most incredible people.
