  • The Sitdown with Standups Episode 7: No Bull, Just Kau ft David Kau
    Aug 28 2023

    In June 2023, the almost mythical David Kau made a stopover in Nairobi from his world travels, we were able to convince him (*read bribe with golf*) to stick around for a week and in that time, he headlined a show (David Kau Live in Kenya) , facilitated our weekly workshop, took in the city of Nairobi and played a charity gold tourney.

    So it only made sense we tied him to the green seat, laced him with Rwandan/ Ethiopian coffee and had one of the most insightful & unfiltered conversations around comedy and life in general.

    Big shout out to all our partners across Africa for making this happen.
