  1. "In the Seventies, when my family first moved to this country, we were the target of those comedians. I don’t see a lot of difference between the racist and hostile jokes directed at my family by comedians in the Seventies, and the targeting of the trans community now. If you come from any sort of minority, marginalised background, we’ve all got to have each others’ backs. Prejudice is a contagion.”

  3. That was fantastic!💙 🤣🤣🤣

    I can't think of any comedian who reflects me more than Nish. I would like to say Colbert, but I struggle to relate to someone who believes in an invisible sky daddy🙄😒

    Maybe Jon Stewart would be another example💙

    But this show was simply phenomenal💯 👍💙 🤣

  5. omg❕ this is 𝘴𝙨𝘀𝗼𝙤𝘰 good 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 (still watching & now really hoping others watch, too🤣)

    i'm only half way thru, & he is 𝙘𝙧𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜!

    talk about "things that can't be said"... Nish is 𝘧𝘢𝘳 more edgy than any Richt-wing comic has ever been

    i met him once after a live show of "Lovett Or Leave It" and asked why 💙The Mash Report💙 was canceled😭

  9. Desi “A Christmas Carol” is a whole subgenre now, there was the #NishKumar one and then #SunitaMani in “Spirited” :)

    Like jazz standards, “Nutcracker” and Shakespeare radiotimes.com/movies/christma

  10. Anyone know what happened in #Cambridge last night that caused a huge police presence in Market Square? I didn't know that the city had that many police cars!

    We were unable to leave #NishKumar's show for 15 minutes because the police wouldn't let people out of the building. I can't really complain, because he came back for an encore.

  12. Last night I had the pleasure of seeing Nish Kumar on his current tour. Kept us in stitches for 90 minutes with a show that was both very dark and incredibly funny.

    I always liked his material, I’ve been following him since his Newsjack days with the BBC, but man, this current set is just dynamite 🧨 👌

    I love #BritishHumor especially the social/political stuff #RachelParris #NishKumar

    Also all the BritishTV on PBS (BritBox doesn't seem to do it for me)
