Simon Evans is Back! Waaaay back
With growing evidence that we are living in a Computer Simulation and a pretty
glitchy, off-brand simulation at that and the approaching watershed of the AI
Singularity looming like a weirdly pixelated cumulo-nimbus on the horizon, BBC
Radio 4 stalwart and veteran of a quarter century of highly acclaimed stand-up
comedy Simon Evans is squinting at an uncertain future, and revisiting the blue
remembered hills of his youth.
The analogue world of hitch-hiking, pub bets and hedge porn. Of being able to get
properly lost. And also pondering the great thinkers and mystics of the past who had,
it seems, the same doubts and misgivings about reality, back when an adjustable
sandal passed for cutting-edge tech.

'A masterclass' ★★★★★ (The Scotsman). 'Outstanding' ★★★★ (Chortle.co.uk). 'Dynamite'
