Previous Episode

Robin Ince, comedian & broadcaster

We grill comedian and all-round enthusiast ROBIN INCE for the five tracks he will meet in Hell!

Robin has been a stand-up comedian since the early nineties. He is the author of several books, including I'm A Joke And So Are You and Bibliomaniac, and is the co-creator and co-presenter, with Professor Brian Cox, of BBC Radio 4's The Infinite Monkey Cage. That barely scratches the surface of what Robin does, however: The Guardian called Robin a 'becardiganed polymath' which just about covers it.

Robin talked to us about writing poetry, being in a band, doing comedy in the 90s, vegetarianism, finding his niche, the Scala cinema, meeting George Michael, why he can't drive, AND he gave us seven songs instead of the usual five. He also talked about how he deals with social media pile-ons, and media storms - following this recent interview where he talked about being bullied by Ricky Gervais.
