When Roy Wood, Jr. held his baby boy for the first time, he was relieved that his son was happy and healthy but felt a strange mix of joy and apprehension. Roy’s own father, a voice of the civil rights movement in Birmingham, Alabama, passed away when Roy was only sixteen. There were gaps in the lessons passed down from father to son, and when holding his own child, Roy wondered: had he managed to fill in those blanks, to learn the lessons he would one day need to teach his boy?

Надежду Лохвицкую (1872–1952), известную всем под псевдонимом Тэффи, современники называли "королевой юмора". Ею восхищались от Николая II до Ленина, а ее веселые ироничные рассказы и фельетоны с остроумными наблюдениями над жизнью и нотками грусти очень высоко ценили. Пережив три революции, две мировые войны, оказавшись в 1920-е годы в эмиграции, она сохранила в "короткой прозе" непосредственность, легкость и умение посмеяться над обычными бытовыми ситуациями, а в свои мемуары привнесла философский характер. В русском Париже Тэффи была одним из любимых писателей.

Recounting the founding of the Comedy Store, the Comic Strip and the Young Ones, and Alexei’s friendships with the comedians who – like him – would soon become household names, this is a unique and beguiling blend of social history and memoir. Fascinating, funny, angry and entertaining, it is a story of class and comedy, politics and love, fast cars and why it’s difficult to foul a dwarf in a game of football.

Over the fifty years that Lorne Michaels has been at the helm of Saturday Night Live, he has become a revered and inimitable presence in the entertainment world. He’s a tastemaker, a mogul, a withholding father figure, a genius spotter of talent, a shrewd businessman, a name-dropper, a raconteur, the inspiration for Dr. Evil, the winner of more than a hundred Emmys—and, essentially, a mystery. Generations of writers and performers have spent their lives trying to figure him out, by turns demonizing and lionizing him.

We all have things in our life that we should know by now, but don’t. Absences in our knowledge and skillset that are frankly shameful in an adult. Things that would be too embarrassing to ask anyone to explain – except our very best friend. Listen in as Mel and Sue tackle their ignorance head on, asking each other to explain something that they still don’t know - but absolutely, as adults, should - from how to parallel park to fully understanding bread (why has it got all those holes in it? What, honestly, is yeast?).

Rhys has lived his entire life with a backdrop of dread. As a child, the sentence he feared most was "come downstairs and say hello." Age 5 he feigned injury to avoid dancing at a wedding, and 25 years later, he celebrated when the venue set on fire moments before what would've been the biggest gig of his life. You'll Like It When You Get There is a guide to life from someone who doesn't want to do anything, and an exploration of why you possibly shouldn't either.

As a kid, Kevin Fredericks noticed something useful: If he made people laugh, the grown-ups would let him stay up late. In church plays, his commitment to the role of Goliath led to a busted lip, and the audience couldn’t get enough. He dreamed of becoming a performer, of finding that big break that would launch him into the bright lights of pop culture fame. But as he soon found, the road to the life we want is longer, weirder, more embarrassing, and more entertaining than we think it will be.

"Dieses Buch hat die gleiche Botschaft wie meine Comedy: Du bist okay. Selbst wenn du glaubst, du bist es nicht." Maxi Gstettenbauer hat Depressionen und erleidet häufig Panikattacken – was für einen Stand-up-Comedian mit regelmäßigen Auftritten im Fernsehen und auf der Bühne keine ganz ideale Kombi ist. Dennoch: Maxi stellt sich ins Rampenlicht, ist erfolgreich, füllt Clubs und Hallen und hat keine Lust mehr, seine Erkrankung zu verheimlichen.

At the start of 2021 Richard Herring was diagnosed with testicular cancer. For a man whose output includes a stand-up tour titled Talking Cock and who regularly interrogates our attitudes towards masculinity, it was a diagnosis that came with additional layers of complexity. Mixing Rich's personal story alongside what defines masculinity and 'maleness' in society, Can I Have My Ball Back? is not your typical cancer memoir. Whether they're nuts, or bollocks, or gonads, or family jewels, Rich unpicks the tangle of emotions around his own testing times.
