Maisie Adam

We'll be uncovering their adventures around the world and the travel experiences and destinations that have shaped their lives.

Today, I'm joined by one of the funniest women in British comedy, Maisie Adam.

Since winning the prestigious So You Think You're Funny competition at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017, Maisie's become a familiar face on shows like Mock the Week, Taskmaster and Last One Laughing, as well as selling out her own stand-up tours across the UK and beyond.

Born and raised in North Yorkshire, Maisie's career has taken her all over the world and as you'll discover, she's an incredibly enthusiastic traveller.

Oh, I really hope that you get there next year, Maisie.

We'll be following along.

Thank you so much, Maisie Adam.

Those were your travel diaries.

all shall be revealed about

Rome.

Yes, so please come to our live recording on Monday, the 26th, Brighton Comedia, and you can get tickets online at comedia.co.uk. And we have Maisie Adams as our guest.

Super.

It's

Perfect, um-

... people say, "What's her face?" Oh, Maisie Adam, Maisie Adam.

Definitely.

Right.

Can't believe we had Maisie Adam on.

That's mad.

I, I was just about to say that, and that was quite early on as well.

He was fifth.

I've got Joe Lycett and, and this contestant from a neighboring pub to the left of me.

To the right of me I've got Rylan Clark, Maisie Adam, Lara Ricote, and Stephen Libbey from, um, last series of The Traitors.

Mm.

All with their mouths closed because the game is you've gotta guess which one of them has not got a pickled egg in their mouth.

To the left of me I've got Joe Lycett and a, um, some contestants from a, a, a twinning pub from, uh, Wales, I think.

And then to the right of me I've got Maisie Adam, Rylan Clark, Lara Ricote, and um, Stephen Libby from The Traitors And those guys have got, three of them have got pickled eggs in their mouth.

One of them does not.

To the left of me, Joe Lycett and the, uh, contestants need to guess which one has not got a pickled egg in their mouth.

Joe's laughing.

Rylan Clark's about to spit his egg out.

Maisie Adam's about to spit her egg out, 'cause they're just laughing so much at this woman just like not leaving.

And I'm so- I, I said, "Honestly, I'm really sorry.

But everybody who won competitions when I was starting out is...

I don't think, except- with the exception of Maisie Adam, I think she was a year after me in So You Think You're Funny, but she's one of those few where you just saw them and you immediate- you were immediately like, "You're gonna be huge."

Yes.

"You're gonna be massive." Like-

I also, I mean, I've been a busy, busy bee.

I went to see Maisie Adam.

Now, Maisie Adam is a stand-up comic, but she also does a lot of the soccer aid stuff and she's a footballer and she was one of the comedians in Last One Laughing on Netflix, the second series, and she was hilarious.

So we went to see her and she's hilarious.

But, okay, I did say this yesterday on my TikTok, but I could have and would have bet a lot of money on the fact that she was queer.

But yeah, and so that's kind of kickstarted programming chats as early as possible for next year.

Um, and I am going to see Maisie Adam's tour very soon.

I'm actually going to see her on my hus- my husband's [laughs] on our wedding anniversary.

Um-

And so linen, linen and flowers is what you're supposed to buy.

It's four years.

And instead, I'm giving him tickets to Maisie Adam.

[laughs] Maisie's touring all over the country, and she was one of our guests in the shed during the Fringe just before the So You Think You're Funny? Grand Final.
