ROB BECKETT: I’m a Chinese Takeaway & a Pint - If You Don’t Like It, Don’t Come Again

ROB BECKETT: I’m a Chinese Takeaway & a Pint - If You Don’t Like It, Don’t Come Again22 sept.1 h 08 min

Rob Beckett burst onto the comedy scene 15 years ago. Since then, he’s become one of the UK’s most successful and popular comedians - from his sell-out stand up tours to his hit podcast Parenting Hell, Rob & Romesh Vs and now, Celebrity Traitors.

I'd been trying to get Rob on the show for years, so finally sitting down with him for a proper laugh was a real pinch-me moment.

Behind the jokes is a comedian who's found his voice, stopped worrying about what other people think, and uses it to give us all a bit of light relief from the doom and gloom in the world.

In this conversation, Rob shares:

Being told he was stupid by a teacher and how it stayed with himHow he found his voice as a comedianThe moment on Rob vs Romesh he realised he was burnt outHow having kids holds a mirror up to your own childhoodA surprise message from his wife, Lou

This conversation is a reminder that the best version of yourself is usually the one where you stop trying to be anything else.

Rob Beckett is Great Company.
