  • Summary

  • Comedian Darren Harriott has come a long way since he was car sharing his way around the UK as a teenager looking to forge a career in stand up comedy. Most recently you’ll find him slicing his way across the ice on the latest season of Dancing on Ice, on numerous panel shows and comedy stages after being nominated for the Best Newcomer Award and Best Show Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017 and 2019.

    But Darren’s journey hasn’t always been smooth. His father died by suicide while in prison when Darren was just 11 years old. As he and Kris sit down for a chat, he explains what a profound impact this had on his life, how it became a catalyst for him exploring the world of comedy, his experiences with therapy and the difficult years that fell in between.

    As always with the topics in the podcast, some may find subjects triggering.
