2for1 Pizza at Nonna Said when attending Rob Thomas insists hes happy. His face disagrees. His vibe disagrees. Even his own material disagrees. Still, hes doing his best to be a top-tier husband, father and functioning adult despite the wife, kid and entirely his own melodramatics. After supporting some of the UKs biggest comedy heavyweights (Paul Smith, Troy Hawke, Adam Rowe & more), Rob finally unleashes his debut tour. Youll know him as the host of Another One Podcast, a guest on Have A Word and Green Room, and from the millions whove watched him online instead of doing something productive. Honest, hilarious and wonderfully chaoticdont miss your chance to see Rob live.

Glasgow's loudest, proudest da is back from the dead... and this time he's front and centre in a live show you wont forget... flying solo without his daft boy. Glesga Da (aka Raymond Mearns) has dusted himself off and is turning up the volume for a night of unfiltered, no-holds-barred comedy at Blackfriars. Expect razor-sharp wit, rapid-fire banter and non-stop audience interaction: you ask, he answers - but in Glesga Da style. From rants about everyday life, the NHS, car finance, to deep dives into politics and pop culture: no topic is off limits. Hell drag you in, challenge you, roast you (lovingly), and leave you in stitches. Come ready to shout out, laugh loud, and maybe... even be part of the show yourself.

It is raw, restless and very, very funny.

This is a full-scale audit of the human raceour stupidity, our vanities, our desperate need to invent things like TikTok and gender reveal parties. At the same time, we cant even recycle properly.

People: great idea, poorly executed. Come witness the mess weve made of ourselves, bathe in the stupidity of your own species.
